President’s Sweet Wife

Chapter 297 Putting on a Party

Victoria thought about it. “I’ll come back after I rest up for a month.”

Natalia blinked. “That soon?”

“Yeah.”

Victoria seemed to have something on her mind, but she didn’t tell Natalia about it. She simply smiled.

“When I’m back, I’ll come meet up with you.”

Natalia nodded. “Okay. I’ll pick you up, then.”

“Sure.”

The two hung up.

A month later, Victoria really came back from Othua.

As promised, Natalia went to pick her up that day.

She had a child around her, so she kept things as low profile as possible to keep herself from getting

snapped by tabloids.

Natalia picked her up, got in the car, and looked her over carefully.

Thankfully, Victoria looked like she was doing perfectly fine. Except for having gained a little weight

from her pregnancy, she didn’t look too different.

Natalia breathed a sigh of relief.

She hugged Victoria.

“You’re finally back. I missed you so much.”

Victoria laughed. “If Archie were to hear that, he’d get jealous.”

Natalia laughed too and smirked, “Forget him.”

Victoria settled down right in Eqitin without going back to Julio.

Natalia had found her a place beforehand; a quaint little mansion not far away from Pinewood Manor.

The house had originally been owned by Archie, but then Archie had given several dozens of his real

estate property all to Natalia, so they all belonged to her now.

After settling down mother and son, Natalia let her rest up for a couple of days before throwing a

welcome back party for her.

Victoria knew that Natalia only did all that because she was worried that she wouldn’t fit in.

So she didn’t refuse her good intentions and agreed right away.

Two days later, Natalia sent own invitations and called Max and company all over to go sing and eat at

night.

When they arrived at the karaoke bar, everyone else had already arrived as well.

Anne had break today, so Natalia brought her in too.

They got off the car and saw Victoria at the doorway.

She’d been waiting there specifically for them. Recognizing her, Anne ran up and give her a fierce hug,

smiling sweetly. “Auntie Victoria.”

Victoria was so happy her mouth couldn’t close properly.

She returned Anne’s hug and examined her. “Good girl, Anne. You’ve grown prettier again. Let’s see if

you’ve gotten any taller.”

She took a step back and chuckled, “My, looks like you have.”

Archie led Natalia up. Victoria looked at the two of them and laughed, “It’s been a while, Archie. Looks

like you’ve been living well. You’ve got a glow about you. What, your married life’s going well?”

Natalia smiled awkwardly and glared at her.

Before Archie could reply, she said, “It’s fine. What can you do, right?”

Victoria smirked, “Well, of course I can congratulate you for finding true love.”

Natalia winked at her. “Speaking like you don’t have someone. I’m telling you, your true love’s here

tonight too.”

Victoria jolted, and before she could react, a car engine sounded from behind.

Then she saw Louis’ car rolling over.

She started, going pale.

Natalia had actually only just known that Charlie was coming over.

Coincidentally, she’d known Charlie long ago and paid special attention to him because Victoria liked

him.

Besides, they’d been to the same high school.

Unexpectedly, Charlie was the grandson of old lady Stevenson.

Back then, when Mr. Peck had gotten divorced, his wife had only just found out that she was pregnant.

So she’d taken the child and raised him to adulthood. Later on, only when she was sick did she tell

Charlie about his own background and identity.

Now that old lady Stevenson had found Charlie, the Stevensons respected his wishes and didn’t have

him change his name back, only hoping that he could accept his family.

After all, they’d tried hard to look for him, but his mother had hidden their tracks. No matter how much

effort they put in, they couldn’t be blamed for not finding them.

Since Charlie was old lady Stevenson’s grandson and old lady Stevenson was close to Ariana, Charlie

naturally had the right to take his place in this noble generation of Eqitin.

Besides, he’d known Max from long ago and they were still great friends, so it wasn’t awkward for them

to have fun together.

However, seeing the man before her, Victoria froze to the spot.

Natalia noticed something was wrong and said concernedly, “Are you all right, Victoria?”

Victoria reacted and shook her head.

Damnit, she should have known he’d be here!

Now that the Stevensons were back in the country, of course he’d follow them here!

Seeing she was pale, Natalia asked, “Are you feeling ill? Want me to go back with you?”

“No need.”

Natalia had gone to all the trouble of organizing this party to welcome her and introduce these friends

to her anyway.

As the person it was all centered around, she couldn’t leave. It’d be too impolite.

Victoria calmed herself and said, “I’m fine. Let’s go in.”

“Okay.”

Natalia took her and led her in. Fortunately, Charlie only shot a look at her and didn’t do anything else.

The group went into the compartment and Natalia introduced everyone. It wasn’t just Max, but even

Laura had come here.

Natalia knew that Victoria had argued with her father and didn’t want to go back to Julio, so she’d

probably stay in Eqitin for a long while.

She didn’t have too many friends here. As best buds, Natalia wanted to stay by her side as often as

she could, but sometimes she didn’t have that much time.

Victoria was done giving birth, but not done recovering. She still needed friends around she could talk

to.

Natalia introduced all of them and Victoria greeted everyone with a friendly smile.

Because there were so many people there and Natalia liked the hustle and bustle, she decided to

throw a barbecue.

Coincidentally, after they got into the meal and Natalia scooted out to go to the restroom, she ran into

Wanda.

Wanda was in a faintly colored one-piece dress today. She looked energetic and fresh. Compared to

the maturity and reliability she displayed before, she looked younger here, more like a student.

Natalia was a bit surprised. She didn’t think she’d see her here today.

She didn’t have anything against Wanda, so she asked casually, “You’re eating here, too?”

Wanda smiled awkwardly. “Yeah, but the person I’m supposed to meet can’t come, so I’m leaving.”

Natalia blinked, looked at her, sharply noticed the loneliness in her eyes, and blurted, “Then how about

we eat together? There’s plenty of people here and it’s a party.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

She bit her tongue the instant those words left her mouth.
