Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet?

Chapter 725 A Potential Buyer

Suddenly, Nico paused.

Since Nico stopped walking, Natalia, who was walking behind her, stopped walking too.

She cried in surprise, "What’s wrong, Mrs. Macchi?"

Nico looked back at Natalia with a slight frown. "Where are you from?"

Natalia put on a smile immediately upon hearing that question. "I’m from Ambario. Have you ever

heard of it?"

Nico turned pale in an instant.

People looked quite alike in countries nearby.

When Natalia and Nancy first got here, they were talking in fluent English. In order to hide her identity,

Nancy even talked in Tacitus’ language on purpose.

Therefore, both Sammy and Nico believed that Natalia and Nancy were from Tacitus.

After all, the two of them were friends and came together, so naturally, Sammy and Nico thought they

came from the same country.

And that was why Nico froze and turned pale upon hearing Natalia was from Ambario.

Watching her acting strangely, Natalia waved her hand in front of Nico’s eyes and asked curiously,

"What’s wrong, Mrs. Macchi? Did I say something wrong?"

Nico came to her senses and shook her head. "N… No."

Then she turned around in a panic and kept on walking.

Nico told Natalia there was nothing wrong.

But judging from the shocked look on her face, Natalia could tell she had something on her mind.

What was it?

Did Natalia say something that triggered Nico?

What did she say just now?

Was it the large villa? The ice sculptures? Or the fact that she came from Ambario?

Which one triggered Nico exactly?

Natalia was unsure about it, but now she was sure that Nico, just like her and Nancy, must have been

trafficked here, but in some other way.

Natalia couldn’t help but feel sympathetic to Nico, the old and stooped woman who was walking in front

of her.

She must have suffered a lot.

Natalia wished she could think of a way to save other victims after she got out of here.

Thinking so, Natalia went back home with Nico silently.

Ever since they arrived home, Nico had looked depressed. She made an excuse that she didn’t feel

well and went back to her room for a rest after telling them to stay at home.

After that, Natalia went back to her room. Sitting on the bed, Nancy asked her at once when seeing her,

"How’s it going?"

Natalia didn't answer her right away. She locked the door, came up to Nancy, and said in a low voice,

"It didn’t go well. They were wary of me. Sammy didn’t like me going out with his wife, but don’t worry,

I’ll look for another chance."

She put the basket of flowers in front of Nancy and said, "Look what I’ve got!"

Nancy was surprised to see that. "Flowers? What do you pick these flowers for?"

Natalia gave a mysterious smile. "Don’t underestimate these flowers. They may come in handy one

day."

Then she told Nancy about the potential use of these flowers.

Nancy didn’t know much about flowers, and her eyes brightened up after hearing what Natalia said.

So the two of them started to take actions.

Of course, they wouldn’t let the old couple find out.

As she said, Natalia went down to get a few bottles and put some flowers in to decorate the living

room, while the rest of the flowers were left in the courtyard exposed to the sun.

Nico asked her about the flowers, and Natalia told her that since the flowers would wither in a few days,

she might as well dry them so as to keep them longer at home.

Nico didn’t think it was necessary to do so because after all, these free flowers were everywhere all

over the mountains.

Once they withered, Natalia could pick some more and take them back, and she didn’t have to dry

them now.

But Natalia wouldn’t listen to her.

Nico thought Natalia was just being a headstrong girl who was interested in arty-crafty stuff, and left her

alone.

So Natalia and Nancy had overcome the first obstacle successfully.

When Sammy came back in the evening, he told the three of them with a smile, "We have guests

tonight. Prepare a nice meal for them."

Nico got a little nervous as she heard him.

Natalia and Nancy, nevertheless, acted as if they knew nothing and nodded. "OK."

As night fell, a few men came into the house as expected.

Seemingly, they were all from this village and very respectful to Sammy.

Meanwhile, Nico was cooking in the kitchen quietly while Nancy helped her make a fire as Natalia sat

on the bench at the kitchen door helping them wash some vegetables.

From where she was, Natalia could see those men’s faces clearly. They were sitting in the middle of Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

the living room not far away from her.

Those men were in their 30s or 40s.

Since they had been doing farm work in the open for years, they looked older than they were supposed

to be.

They acted rudely and were talking with Sammy.

But Natalia couldn’t understand the local dialect they spoke.

However, she could tell from their tone that they were negotiating, or, arguing about something.

Natalia dropped her eyes and glanced back at Nancy.

Nancy was making a fire obediently. The blaze lit up her smooth cheeks, which looked like a pearl

glowing softly in the depth of the ocean.

Natalia’s lips curved into a sneer.

She thought to herself. Since she was already taken, now these men must be discussing Nancy’s

future.

As expected, after a heated discussion, one of them got up and walked towards the kitchen.

"You’re busy washing the vegetables, eh?"

A man leered at Natalia.

Natalia gave a cold smile, saying nothing.

But in that man’s eyes, Natalia was being shy.

He couldn’t help but sigh in his mind.

"What a shame! This girl does look pretty, but she has given birth before."

He had heard from the elderly in the village that the firstborns were the best.

Firstborns were smart and pretty, so he would only buy a woman who hadn’t given birth before.

The woman inside the kitchen seemed cold, but she was pretty too. She might get meeker after he

trained her well.

Thinking of this, he walked into the kitchen with satisfaction.

"Mrs. Macchi, do you need any help?"

The man asked, glancing at Nancy from time to time.

Apparently, Nancy had already noticed him, but she didn’t even bother shooting a glance at him, just

like Natalia.

Nico forced a smile and replied, "It’s OK. Just wait in the living room. Dinner will be ready

soon."
