Chapter 473 Wish for the Spring Festival
Chapter 473 Wish for the Spring Festival
Archie analyzed the situation over the phone. Although he said that he would not help the Rogers
family, he still had to find out what was going on.
After all, Mrs. McCarthy was a lineal relative of the Rogers family. Although Mrs. McCarthy passed
away a long time ago, their relationship was still there. If something really happened, it would inevitably
be affected.
After hanging up the phone, Archie looked back at Natalia.
He leaned over to kiss Natalia's lips and whispered, "I go out in the afternoon. You have a good rest at
home. Call me if you have anything."
Natalia nodded.
After a pause, Natalia said worriedly, "Be careful."
Archie smiled and turned to leave without saying anything.
When it was almost evening, Natalia received a call.
It was said that the matter of the Rogers family was found out. The thing was indeed not put down by
themselves, but by a business competitor.
But in addition, something else was found, which was used by Molly's father to make a profit over the
years.
The old Madam showed no mercy to handle this matter.
Molly's family could only be considered as Mrs. McCarthy's cousin, and couldn't be compared with
Stephen's family who was Mrs. McCarthy's lineal relatives at all.
Molly's father was Mrs. McCarthy's cousin, so for many years, the old Madam had helped them solve
their problems as long as they did not break her bottom lines.
But they wanted to plot against the McCarthy family.
They were not grateful to the McCarthy family
Under the intervention of the McCarthy family, the matter was quickly settled.
Because of the old Madam's intervention, Molly did not marry the old man in his fifties and continued to
study in Eqitin.
As the Rogers family's branch collapsed, Molly could no longer live her previous life.
Moreover, because Molly seduced Archie, the old Madam felt that she was impolite, and embarrassed
the Rogers family, and disliked her.
Molly's life was harder.
However, no one cared about these things anymore. Molly should be responsible for her behaviors.
What's more, she just could not spend as much money as before and go to some high-end places.
Molly was still much better than ordinary students.
It had been a month after these things were solved.
Archie's injuries were almost healed, and Natalia was pregnant. Under the doctor's advice, Natalia
stayed at home to rest.
Mr. K's matter had not been solved, but Natalia was pregnant now. She had come back, so it was
impossible for her to go to Othua for this matter.
The McCarthy family was worried about her and Natalia's body could not allow her to go back and forth
too.
Therefore, this matter could only be temporarily investigated by Archie's followers in Othua.
Fortunately, Pierre was involved in this matter, and he also wanted to investigate it, so they are surer of
handling the matter.
Time flew by, and it was time for the Spring Festival.
Natalia promised Anne to float river lanterns. She heard that there was river lights activity in the
suburbs, so after the New Year's Eve dinner, they drove to the suburb.
Old Madame McCarthy and Mr. Old McCarthy went together.
The five of them only drove one car. Archie drove the car, and Natalia sat in the passenger seat. Old
Madame McCarthy and Mr. Old McCarthy sat in the back with Anne.
The car was driving on the bustling street. During the New Year, the sound of music and sales
promotion in the shops on the street messes together. Besides, there were many colorful lights on the
trees on the side of the road. It was very lively.
The car drove slowly and soon arrived near the riverside.
The three rivers converged into one passing through the center of the city, and forming beautiful
scenery.
Floating river lanterns was an ancient tradition. Other places to put river lanterns were on the 15th day
of the first lunar month, known as the ancient Lantern Festival. But here people floating river lanterns
were in the first month, no matter what day, as long as before the fifteenth day of the first month.
Therefore, every year from the beginning of the New Year to the 15th of the first lunar month, the river
was full of river lanterns, and countless men and women came here to make wishes.
On both sides of the river, there were many willow trees. Many shops were decorated in an antique
style, looking like the ancient misty rain style. Gradually, it became a tourist attraction.
The McCarthy family had been in the city since ages ago, and they had seen so many scenes like this,
so they were not surprised.
But Natalia had lived in Julio, so it was rare for her to see such scenery.
The river was very long and ran through the whole city. There were filled with antique shops on the
edge of the river.
There were bars, jewelry stores, local specialties, snacks, restaurants, and so on.
There were many people from other places, but there were also many locals.
Archie bought five river lanterns. Each of them held one and walked toward the river.
After squeezing through the crowd, they came to the riverside. However, the place was narrow, and
they couldn't stand together. So they were dispersed.
Old Madame McCarthy and Mr. Old McCarthy with Anne were squeezed into the crowd, and Natalia
and Archie were on another side.
Natalia took out a thick black pen and handed it to Archie. She smiled to say, "What wish do you
want?"
Archie looked at Natalia and returned the pen, "You write first."
"I want to see you write first."
Archie paused and took the pen, "Well!" Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Archie wrote his wishes on his river lantern.
When Natalia saw what Archie wrote, she laughed.
"Don't waste the opportunity, okay? This doesn't count!"
Archie put his river lantern into the river and said seriously, "Why not?"
"Of course not! This wish is too unrealistic."
Archie raised his eyebrows.
"If a wish can be easily obtained in real life, can it be called a wish?"
Natalia was stunned and looked up at him.
The night was slightly cold. Archie stood straight forwards and colorful lights on the bank of the river
reflected on his handsome face. With just a glance, countless girls were tempted.
An indescribable feeling of gratitude suddenly rose in Natalia's heart.
She tiptoed and kissed Archie's chin.
Archie looked down at her.
Natalia smiled at him and wrote a line of words on the river lantern.
"I hope Archie's wish will come true."
Archie held Natalia's one hand.
Natalia put the river lantern into the water and said with a smile, "The God will hear our voices."
Archie's voice was a little hoarse. "Natalia."
"Hmm?"
Natalia turned around, and her lips were blocked by Archie's lips.
They were outside and there were so many people around them. Archie didn't kiss her too deeply.
