They were talking in a low voice.
So, Natalia didn't hear what they said.
She was picking flowers on the hillside not far away from them. She already got a big bunch of colorful flowers, yellow, blue, purple, and pink.
Seeing that, Sammy sneered.
"What a naive girl. Look at her. She's picking flowers!"
Nico's fingers slightly twitched as she heard that.
Bringing an armful of flowers, Natalia ran over to them and smiled, "Mr. and Mrs. Macchi, these flowers look so good, don't they?"
Sammy put on a smile at once. "Yes, indeed."
"Can I put them into the vase in your living room?"
"Of course, you can."
The old couple didn't think much of it, believing that Natalia simply loved girlish flowers.
But in fact, these flowers were for a special purpose.
She didn't pick them randomly.
If these flowers were put together, they could give off a psychedelic scent.
Natalia didn't know about this at first. During a mission abroad, she walked by a garden and Felix taught her something about flowers.
In normal people's view, these were simply ordinary flowers.
The psychedelic aroma could only be created when these specific ones were mixed together.
Natalia did so because she found Nancy and her were in a tricky position.
Admittedly, Nancy was able to beat the old couple.
But after all, her leg was broken, so they should avoid physical violence as far as possible.
Natalia, nevertheless, wasn't very good at fighting.
And people doing farm work in the field could never be underestimated. Even if they knew nothing about fighting, they had great strength.
Natalia wasn't sure if she was able to protect herself and Nancy in danger.
Thus, she needed to make extra preparations before things got worse.
After all, better safe than sorry.
When she brought these flowers home, she would air dry and grind them secretly, and that was how the psychedelic powder was made.
Natalia wasn't sure how long the effect would last or how strong it could be, but it was better than nothing.
In the worst case, she could throw it into the enemy's eyes.
With this thought, Natalia picked some more flowers.
Nico sighed silently watching her picking flowers happily.
She felt sorry for Natalia. It was said that she had two children at home. Now she was trapped here, and presumably, she would never get back. Those poor kids!
Nico was a sympathetic woman. Seeing Natalia being so lively, she seemed to be watching herself many years ago.
But after all these years, that was all the sympathy left within her.
She would feel sorry for the two girls, but would she tell them the truth or help them?
