My Wife Is So Sweet (Natalia Dawson) novel Chapter 728

Chapter 728 Escape at Night

He stopped and thought it over. Then he continued, "well, I'll muddle through somehow. If the worst comes to the worst, I will find a car to take them to town. There are many human traders. Perhaps we can't ask too high a price, but we have no other choice."

At his words, Nico's face changed and her fingers trembled.

However, facing her cruel husband, she did not dare to say anything, but lowered her head.

The oil lamp in the room stayed on until midnight.

The next day the sun rose and everything was as usual.

That night, Natalia and Nancy didn't dare to sleep soundly in case something happened.

As Natalia expected, Sammy sensed something was wrong with them, but he didn't do anything.

There were also some differences.

For instance, they were not allowed to eat downstairs anymore, let alone go outside.

The reason was ridiculous.

Sammy said, "do you know that, last night a group of thieves came to the village, robbing money as well as women. You're from out of town, looking so vulnerable. In my opinion, you'd be safer in your room."

"As you can see, it's just me and my wife here. If someone does break in, we can't protect you, right?"

Nancy frowned at his words. She was about to talk back, but Natalia stopped her.

Natalia clutched her chest and pretended to be frightened. "Really? Is there really such a bold thief? Oh my Jesus! I have heard that there are a lot of thieves in the countryside who ignore the law and do bad things. So it was true? Oh my god, it's so terrible."

Watching her convincing performance, the corner of Nancy's lips twitched a little, starting to believe what she said.

However, Sammy and Nico didn't notice anything unusual.

Instead, they nodded seriously. "Yeah, they are savage. So you guys, stay in your room. Nico will bring you food."

Natalia made a grateful expression. "Sorry to bother you."

"Well, never mind."

Then Sammy left.

Nico gave Natalia a long look and said nothing. At last, she went into the kitchen.

Then Natalia went back to their room with Nancy.

As soon as they entered the room, Nancy whispered. "What are you doing? It's obvious that they are lying to us. They're just trying to lock us up and keep us from running away!"

Natalia sneered, "of course, I know. Can't you tell that I'm just putting on an act?"

Nancy caught on at once.

"Natalia, what were you thinking?"

Natalia sat there with her chin on her hands.

"Nothing. I'm just wondering why they do everything in such a hurry. Maybe someone's here. Or they won't change so much."

Nancy paused for a moment, then she was wild with joy.

"Did you say Mr. McCarthy is here? That's right, you've been missing for so many days, he should be here by now."

However, Natalia lowered her eyes, poker-faced.

"Not them."

"What?"

"If he did come, he wouldn't give Sammy a chance to react."
