Spoiled By The President: My Wife Is A Little Sweet novel Chapter 52

Chapter 52 She was Jealous

With a stiffened back, Natalia dared not make any sudden movement.

Amid the darkness, her eyes widened in the darkness.

Was he... really asleep?

He usually kept to his side of the bed. What was all the sprawling around the bed today? Was he pretending to be asleep?

Natalia waited for a moment, and Archie stopped fidgeting too. The pin-drop silence with the man's faint breathing in the background drew out a frame of tranquility and serenity.

When she was sure that the man behind her was indeed asleep, she carefully lifted his arm, trying to move it away.

However, the action immediately resulted in murmurs coming from behind her..

And the arm rested on her waist tightened to wrap her.

What's more, Archie's whole body pressed on her, his handsome face burying in her long hair, as if she was his large-sized pillow. She was totally imprisoned by him now.

Nestled in his embrace, Natalia was left breathless from suffocation while her body lay stiffened.

The faint breathing spewing between her hair and warm circulation curling her neck aroused a tingle of trembling numbness, electrifying her entire body like a surge of current.

With her head buzzing, Natalia's mind almost went blank instantly.

Yet, the man behind her remained unaware of her reaction, as he glided his arm over her waist, tightening his grasp over her.

Natalia gritted her teeth.

This intimate posture was way past the line of flirting.

It could be said as risky.

Unable to bear it further, she clutched onto his hand to put it away, regardless of the fact that the action would wake him.

However, the arm on her waist suddenly strengthened its grip and she could not pull it away no matter how hard she tried.

Just as she was going to give it another try with all her might, she heard muffles of laughter behind her.

Dumbstruck like a blow to the head, Natalia finally realized something.

She turned her head over.

The light in the room was turned on instantly.

Natalia stared at the man lying on the bed, stunned and speechless.

He stopped playing dumb now that he had been discovered, but his arm still clung to her waist.

Archie grinned at her, his other arm propping his head on the pillow,

"You finally quit pretending?"

There was unmistakable banter in his voice.

Natalia said angrily, "You are awake at all the time, right?"

"Aren't you, too?"

"I..."

Knowing that she was wrong, Natalia didn't know how to retort. So she grumbled, "So what? I did not get on your nerves pretending to be asleep, but why did you have to try my patience when you are faking it?"

Archie stared at her quietly.

The woman's downcast eyes revealed faint guilt and fluster. Her embodiment of a lost deer tugged on his heartstrings.

She really was not the type to lie.

Just a little lie was already biting so much on her conscience.

Archie q smirked before asking her, "What did you hear outside the study earlier?"

Natalia didn't know how to answer him for a while.

Natalia paused and lifted her eyes to meet his gaze.

His eyes were profound and murky, like the finest black jade. Under the dimmed lighting, the seemingly penetrating eyes spoke of placidity and serenity.

Natalia felt uneasy at his gaze.

Archie was the one at fault but his calm gaze suggested as though she was to blame!

She got a little annoyed at the thought of this.
