President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 415

Kenya seemed to see her only then.

"You're Archie's wife, the legendary lady, right? Nice to meet you. You can just call me Kenya like Archie."

Natalia just smiled gently, "Hello."

Seeing this, Mrs. Stevenson greeted Archie and some of the youngsters of the Stevenson family and sent them to the back to play chess while the ladies chatted in the front.

Most of the men didn't like what the women were talking about, so Natalia didn't mind.

But Archie squeezed her hand secretly before he left, fearing that she might not be used to being here by herself.

"Just sit down for a while. I'll have a word with them and then I'll come over."

Natalia nodded.

After Archie left, she went over to the sofa but found it already full, and then a maid brought a stool over. She then sat down on the stool and listened to them quietly.

When Kenya saw this, her eyes twinkled.

She smiled and said to the group of women, "Do you know what we ate when we were marching in the field? Let me tell you, it was all real. We had only brought enough food for three days, and we wouldn't have anything to eat until we got across the Amazon all the way to the base on the other side. The various traps and secret posts along the way were hidden and we didn't even know about them beforehand."

She had been in the army after all, and these things were so new to these pampered ladies of the gentry that everyone listened intently.

Someone asked, "How can you get through the Amazon jungle in three days when it's so big? And they don't even tell you about the traps. What if you get hurt?"

"If you get hurt, just bear it." Kenya had a proud look on her face, "I remember when I came across some African natives and almost got caught by them. But luckily, I ran fast and didn't fall into their trap."

"African natives? Were they cannibals?"

"Well ... something like that! But they don't eat people. They sacrifice them, cut off their heads, and put them on the altar on moonlit nights ..."

"Oh my! Stop it. It's horrible."

"What's so horrible about that? Cannibals are fine, but the scariest part is the variety of poisonous insects and beasts, swamps, and miasma inside. Once you're not paying attention, you can easily become food for those things. Speaking of this..."

Kenya suddenly turned her head to Natalia and said thoughtfully, "At that time, if Archie hadn't saved me, I wouldn't have been able to get out of there."

Archie?

What did it matter to Archie that she was training in the army?

Natalia was expressionless, but Mrs. Stevenson explained with a smile.

"Archie came to Othua for a while about six or seven years ago. He happened to run into her and saved her."

So that was it!

Natalia caught on, and Kenya laughed, "I was a little girl at the time, so I couldn't have dealt with so much. If it wasn't for Archie's secret protection all the way, I would probably have died there."

She added, "At that time, I was bitten by a giant poisonous snake and my whole body was paralyzed and I couldn't move. It was only because Archie sucked the poison out of me despite the danger, and stayed with me all night that I survived. In that way, we're sort of comrades in arms."

"I was wondering how you two got on so well now. I guess that's when you formed your bond! I've always heard that Mr. McCarthy is cold and unapproachable. You were the only one who could talk to him all the time."

Kenya smiled sweetly, "What's so cold about Archie? That's because you don't know him well. I think he's quite nice."
