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

Chapter 729 Trading in the Middle of the Night

They covered their nose and mouth.

Until the smell faded, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Hearing it, they quickly threw the wet cloth into a corner.

The dark room was lighted by a gleam of light. Slowly and stealthily, two figures were moving to the

bed. Then they looked closely at the girls in the bed.

Natalia felt something sway in front of her with a faint breath.

Then she heard a man’s hoarse voice. “They passed out. Let’s look at them carefully!”

Then the footsteps sounded.

Judging from the jumble of footsteps, there was more than one person.

The bright light fell on Nancy and Natalia’s face. Natalia could almost feel the temperature of the lamp.

Quite the contrary, the light also struck a chill in her heart.

“Well, not bad. They are adorable,” said another strange man.

Sammy smiled nervously. “So the money……”

“At your price! Get them to the car outside.”

“Sure!”

Natalia felt like she was being picked up.

With the attendant feeling of weightlessness, she felt an intense sense of insecurity.

But whether she or Nancy, remained motionless, as agreed.

Her body rocked from side to side and she could feel herself being carried downstairs. Then the gate

opened, letting in a rush of cold air.

She knew they were outside.

“Put them in the back of the tricycle.”

A man directed two other accomplices to put them on a tricycle with an iron roof.

Until her body touched the ground, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The tricycle’s door clanged shut. Then a noise sounded, as if someone had locked it from the outside.

Then everything went dark.

A muffled sound of voices floated up from outside.

They seemed to be negotiating some kind of deal.

After a while, they seemed to come to an arrangement, and they burst into peals of laughter.

Natalia felt a sudden movement in the front of the tricycle, probably because someone was sitting on it.

As the night got darker, the tricycle wobbled along the rocky mountain road.

After a long time, Natalia opened her eyes, cautiously and tentatively.

It was pitch dark inside the carriage.

Nancy, who was sitting next to her, also opened her eyes.

Instead of speaking, they clenched their hands to let each other know they were okay.

They sat on the hard, cold board on a bumpy ride along the mountain.

Neither of them dared to speak but looked at each other in dark.

They had no idea where they were going. But they were safer than being caught by those professional

killers.

So instead of resisting, they let themselves be carried into the tricycle.

Ever since they came to the village, they had seen some backward features that were out of touch with

modern society.

No electricity or communication facilities. Not even a decent piece of furniture or a proper transportation

tool was seen.

They didn’t expect their first ride on an electric tricycle to be in such conditions.

Now they didn’t know how to react.

Nancy leaned over and whispered something in Natalia’s ear. “Who are they? Where are we going?”

Natalia thought it over.

She wasn’t sure who they were, but she could probably guess where they were going.

She compressed her lips and wrote a word on Nancy’s palm.

“Town.”

Nancy was surprised.

“How do you know?”

“I guessed it.”

She remembered that not long ago she had asked Sammy where she could make a phone call.

Sammy said there was only a telephone in the town about ten kilometers away.

More importantly, she learned from what he said that there must be a telephone in town.

There was no electricity in any village for hundreds of miles around. From this, she assumed that the

electric tricycle had come from town.

Nancy didn’t think so much about it.

Silently, she clenched the dagger fastened to her waist. She felt like a rubber band that was going to

snap at any moment.

After about an hour or so, the tricycle finally stopped.

Nancy and Natalia looked at each other without saying anything.

They listened with bated breath.

They heard a man shout in a dialect, not knowing what he was saying.

Natalia could tell that it was not the town, but somewhere in the countryside.

Soon, there was a jumble of footsteps.

She heard a few pleasantries outside the tricycle and their voice mingled with giggles.

Natalia and Nancy’s faces darkened.

They had a sinking feeling. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Sure enough, the door of the carriage was opened.

A torch mingled with moonlight shone on their face. Nancy and Natalia looked up and saw three men

standing at the door.

“You’re awake? Didn’t he say that it would put them down for hours? Why did they wake up so

quickly?” said a tall man doubtfully.

He was probably the one who picked them up from Sammy’s home. There were two other men

standing beside them.

Those two men looked better dressed than the tall man.

They wore thin sweaters, old-fashioned but clean, and gray suit pants. Their hair looked well, too.

Although they looked out of style, they were better than Sammy and the other countrymen.

They nodded with satisfaction, their eyes fixed on Nancy and Natalia.

“Well, not bad! This is a good buy!”

Then he opened his wallet tucked under his armpit and took out a wad of money.

“This is the final payment. You can count it. I’ll take them away if it’s okay.”

“Okay, okay!”

The man took the money and started counting excitedly.

Soon, he finished counting.

“No problem, bro. Then I’ll leave them to you.”

“Well, leave the tricycle to us as well and I’ll give it back to you later.”

“Fine. Sure.”

Then the man waved and left.

Until the man walked away, the two men rubbed their hands in delight and leaned over to the door to

take a closer look at Nancy and Natalia’s beautiful faces. “Brother, we made a good deal!”
