President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 417

Mrs. Stevenson's words caused Kenya to blush and she stuck her tongue out in embarrassment.

A noble lady spoke for her, "Kenya is still growing up. It's good that she likes to eat."

"You've all spoiled her!"

The group laughed merrily. Soon the maid came to remind them that dinner was ready, then Mrs. Stevenson led everyone to the dining room.

Inside the dining room, Natalia saw Archie and the teenager who was following him.

It was a pale teenager, probably about eighteen or nineteen years old. He looked handsome, polite, and modest, but very thin. He had a pallid look from years of illness and was sitting in a wheelchair as he was pushed forward by a maid.

He seemed to get on well with Archie as he sat in his wheelchair, smiled, and talked to him about something. Archie was surprisingly patient and even tilted his head slightly to listen to him.

"Ricky, come here. Let me introduce you." Mrs. Stevenson spoke.

The teenager named Ricky then asked the maid to push him over. Mrs. Stevenson took Natalia and said, "This is Archie's wife, Natalia. You haven't seen her since you've been sick and haven't been able to come back with us to visit them, but it's not too late for you to meet her now."

Ricky smiled and nodded, "Hello."

Natalia also nodded politely, "Hello."

"This is a gift I brought back from Melbourne some time ago. I'm really sorry I didn't get back in time to see you guys. This will serve as an apology."

Saying that, Ricky took out a gift box from behind him and handed it to Natalia.

Natalia was a little stunned.

Kenya instantly complained, "You actually brought Natalia a gift and not us! You're so eccentric!"

Ricky laughed, "Take it easy! Everyone has one, and the gifts are in my room. Just go and get them yourself after dinner."

A smile quickly appeared on Kenya’s face, "Okay, then I'll go with you after dinner."

Natalia glanced at Archie and saw him nod imperceptibly before she took the gift and smiled kindly, "Thank you."

Only then did everyone take their seats and begin to eat.

During the meeting, someone kept asking about Ricky's health. He responded with a gentle smile and said he was fine.

But Natalia could see that his face was a little yellow, and his lips were bloodless. He was probably being polite when he said he was fine.

What disease did Ricky have?

She had a good impression of the man, so she was a little curious and thought she'd ask Archie about it when they got back later in the evening.

"Natalia, let me propose a toast to you!" Kenya suddenly spoke out and came towards Natalia with a glass of red wine in her hand.

Natalia was a bit stunned, not knowing why Kenya wanted to propose a toast to her for no good reason. But out of courtesy, she lifted the glass and gently clinked it with her.

"Natalia, I am straightforward, so if I have offended you in any way, I hope you will not take it personally." Kenya meant something else.

Natalia nodded and glanced at Archie thoughtfully.

Mrs. Stevenson laughed, "Kenya, Natalia is not like you. She's a light drinker. Don't get her drunk."

Kenya laughed, "No, Natalia and I are very close, don't you think?"

When she finished, she looked at Natalia with a smiling face.

Could Natalia say no?

No!
