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

Chapter 721 Late Night Talk

Nico explained, "This is what we do in my hometown. Each year on my birthday, I braid a red bracelet

for myself for good luck."

Natalia leaned in with a smile, "It looks beautiful. Does everyone here know how to braid?"

Nico paused, and then shook her head.

"No, people here don’t."

"What?"

Surprised, both Natalia and Nancy widened their eyes.

At this point, Sammy came in.

Nico dropped her head immediately and stopped talking.

Seeing the three of them sit together, he asked, "What are you guys talking about?"

Natalia exchanged a glance with Nancy, then looked back at him and smiled, "Nothing. We were talking

about the doctor who just left. He’s quite good! Nancy's leg hurt before, but she felt so much better after

he changed the dressing for her wound."

Nico’s fingers slightly twitched as she heard that.

But she didn’t say anything.

Meanwhile, Sammy laughed upon hearing Natalia.

"Of course! He’s a good doctor! People from our village and other villages nearby all go to see him

when we don’t feel well. If he can’t help us feel better, no other doctors can."

He then said to his wife, "Prepare a nice meal for these two girls. They’re injured and weak now. They

need nutrition to get well soon."

Nico nodded and left.

Sammy finished his words and left too, while Natalia and Nancy heaved a sigh of relief.

As expected, it was a substantial dinner.

During the meal, many villagers dropped by.

Since word got out that two strange girls were in the Macchis’, people all came to see them out of

curiosity.

When Nancy was here before, few people knew about her existence.

However, after Natalia came, the news spread like wildfire, probably because the young bullwhacker

told people about this.

Natalia found that most of them were men in their 20s or 30s.

They looked at them like a pack of ravening wolves going after a fat sheep. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

They found it uncomfortable being stared at by them.

But Natalia and Nancy were guests coming afar, so they didn’t say anything.

They simply sat there, managed a smile, and said hello to them.

The visitors didn’t leave until it was dinner time.

Sammy came back, looking happy. He even had a few more drinks at dinner.

After the meal, Natalia and Nancy went back to their room.

They had a rest in the room. Natalia checked the wound on Nancy’s leg before they washed up and

went to bed. Suddenly, Natalia had an upset stomach.

She rolled out of bed and said to Nancy, "I'm gonna use the bathroom. You stay here and wait for me."

Nancy nodded, worried that Natalia might be afraid since there was no light in the village, and asked,

"Do you need me to go with you?"

"No. It’s OK."

Natalia shook her hand.

She knew Nancy had difficulty in moving because of her wound, so she would never ask her to go

around with her.

Nancy knew what Natalia was thinking and lay down.

Natalia got out of bed, put on the slippers and went downstairs.

She walked lightly. Since she had an upset stomach now, she focused on getting to the toilet and

noticed nothing else.

Finally, she found the bathroom. When she got out of it, she saw a light flickering not far away.

She found it odd.

After all, people here went to bed as night fell, and there should be no light outdoors.

Unlike people in big cities, people here didn’t have a night life.

Besides, the light didn’t come from inside the house, but from outdoors.

Bathrooms in the rural areas weren’t built indoors. Usually, they were just a latrine pit located outside

the kitchen.

If people wanted to use the bathroom, they needed to go downstairs, opened the back door and walked

for a while to get there.

Therefore, Natalia also needed to walk for a while before she got back to the house.

She didn’t expect to see people standing out of Sammy’s house on her way back.

Judging from the shadow on the ground, there were two people over there.

So the flickering light might come from a flaming torch that one of them was holding.

Natalia made for them curiously.

The stone house was boxy, and those two people were standing at the front corner of it.

Afraid that they would see her, Natalia didn’t dare to get too close, so she moved slowly along the wall,

pressing her own body flat against the stone house.

The two people just stood at the other end of the wall.

Natalia heard a male voice saying in the dark, "Thirty grand! It’s too expensive! I heard from Flora and

Terry when they sent that woman here that she had married and given birth before. She’s not a virgin,

so she’s not supposed to be worth that much."

Then came an older male voice.

Natalia could tell it was Sammy’s voice.

It seemed that he was puffing on his pipe, and he said slowly, "If you think she’s not worth that much,

don’t buy her! The other one is a virgin, and she’s also thirty grand. Maybe you’ll buy that one?"

"I…"

The young man hesitated and went silent.

Sammy chuckled.

"Since you like her pretty face, you should pay the amount that a pretty face is worth. After all, we’re

from the same village, and that’s why I ask you first. If you want her, give me 30 grand and I’ll send her

to your house. If you don’t, I’ll sell them to the people from other villages."

The young man got agitated upon hearing that.

"But it’s too much money. You know we’re not that rich… We don’t have 30 grand!"

Sammy paused and said,

"Honestly, this woman belongs to Flora and Terry. I’m just a broker and I just get peanuts. If she’s sold,

they’ll take most of the money! I can’t reduce the price."

Sammy added after a moment, "Just tell me, deal or no deal?"

The young man replied at once, "Deal! Deal!"

Sammy said, "Thirty grand, and not a penny less."

"Well…" the young man hesitated and made up his mind, "Fine, fuck it! I’ll come to you when I raise

enough money. But let me tell you, she’s mine now, and you can’t give her to others."

Sammy chuckled.

"Don’t worry! That girl who broke her leg needs some time to recover. No one wants to buy an injured

woman, so they’ll stay at my house for at least a month."

"I don’t wanna force them, and I’ll try to persuade them in the following month. If they’re smart, they’ll

realize they can never get out of here, and probably, they’ll accept their fate."
