Spoiled By The President: My Wife Is A Little Sweet novel Chapter 49

Chapter 49 Have Dinner Together

Victoria was stunned.

She wanted to say it was not her who made the bet!

But Natalia was her bestie and she did it for her sake so that she could have a date with Charlie.

Besides, when the bet was made, she had stood out earlier herself, so she could not go back on her words now.

Victoria tucked her hair behind her ears and cleared her throat..

"Uhm... I wasn't running away! I j-just came to get something. Yes, I came to get something?"

She even repeated herself to confirm what she said.

Charlie sneered in disdain.

Since the door was unlocked, he pulled the door open and got into the passenger seat.

Victoria was baffled.

Seeing the woman still standing there, Charlie stared coldly at her and asked impatiently, "Why are you still standing there? Where are we going to eat?"

Victoria didn't know how to answer his question.

"Oh," she responded as soon as she regained her senses. Nonetheless, just as Victoria wanted to enter the car, she remembered that the car belonged to Natalia

If she drove her car away, how could Natalia go home later?

Therefore, Victoria could only ask softly as she looked at the man, sitting in the passenger seat and closing his eyes, "This isn't my car. Can we go in your car?"

Charlie didn't reply.

Then Natalia received a phone call from Victoria.

Victoria told her she had to leave first and that she had given the car keys to the security guard in the parking lot. Then she hung up the phone.

Natalia initially wanted to ask if Victoria wanted to wait for Charlie so that he could fulfill his promise, but Victoria hung up so quickly that she could not say it in time.

However, she later heard that Charlie left right after the competition ended. She took a look at her watch and realized the timing matched, so she immediately figured out what happened.

Hence, she did not bother her again. She went to get her car after she set a specific time for the appointment with Nathan, then she left.

When she got home, it was ten p. m.

Surprisingly, Archie was not home.

Considering how Archie drove to her company to pick her up when she forgot to inform him about having to work overtime, Natalia sent him a text in advance.

But she did not expect that she was not the only one who arrived home late.

Natalia looked for Mrs. Dottie, who explained to her with a smile, "Mr. Archie called at dinner time, saying that there is a very important video conference in the company, so he won't come back so early."

Natalia nodded.

She went straight upstairs without saying anything else.

After a long and tiring day, Natalia wanted to take a bath and have a good rest.

She entered the restroom with her pajamas.

On the other side, Victoria and Charlie arrived at the restaurant.

It was an open-air candlelit restaurant.

The restaurant was situated on the second floor, with bright moon and cold wind overhead and vast river in a distance. It was surrounded by romantic candlelight. An elegant cellist was seen playing a melodious and graceful piece on a small stage.

If Victoria ignored the cold-faced man in front of her, the restaurant was indeed the most suitable place for a romantic date.

When the waiter came with the food they ordered, Victoria expressed her thanks in a low voice.

At the restaurant, she didn't need to fully disguise herself anymore. She removed the mask but was still wearing the cap.

The broad brim covered her eyes, leaving only her straight nose and pink lips exposed, and her graceful chin raised slightly. Without saying a word, she had a noble and sophisticated look, as if she was above all beings.

Charlie's eyes were dark and hollow, and a hint of coldness could be seen deep inside them.

All the way from the racetrack, Victoria had gradually eased down from the tension.

Even so, she felt uneasy.

They were dinning outside, but she felt the pressure of the air around her. It seemed that even the space was cramping and suffocating.
