Chapter 726 There's Something Strange
The man rubbed his hands with a smile. "Take all the time you need. I'm here for you if you need any
help."
As he spoke, he strolled behind the stove.
"Are you the girl Sammy saved? Your name is?"
The man asked.
Nancy looked up at him with sarcasm and disdainfulness on her face.
"Does it matter to you?"
The man paused.
He didn't understand what she meant at first.
"What did you say?"
"Why bother asking if you didn't hear what I said?"
The man caught on and froze.
Perhaps it was because he hadn't met a girl as sharp-tongued as her for so long that he took a long
time to let out a sneer.
"Hey! A real personality! I like it rough!"
There was a deep frown on Nancy's face.
She'd like to beat him up if she could.
However, it was just her daydream.
At least, until she and Natalia got fully recovered, she couldn't lock horns with these people.
So she didn't say anything more.
Seeing her turning a deaf ear to him, the man felt bored and could only walk up and down. Finally, he
left with his hands in his sleeves.
Natalia had been sitting in the kitchen doorway.
It was not until he went and sat down on the bench of the central room that he began to complain to
Sammy. "That girl had a bad temper. I'm gonna kick her ass when I take her back to my place."
From the house came bursts of merry laughter.
"It's your own business. If you want, take her now. It will be better to start early."
The man retorted, "no, I'll buy a healthy one. Otherwise, there will be some extra expenses, you know, I
won't pay for that."
Sammy said nothing more.
Instead of keeping listening, Natalia's eyes dropped slightly and a faint sneer flickered across her lips.
The supper was still sumptuous.
Only a few of the men stayed for dinner.
Natalia recognized the man who talked to Sammy outside last time.
At dinner, the man kept his eyes on her and put some food on her plate.
He laughed as he said. "Have more. Look, city girls have good manners. But skipping meals will slow
your recovery."
Natalia smiled and said nothing.
Instead, she laid aside the food he had put on her plate in total silence and did not eat it at all.
Nancy looked at them with a blank face the whole time.
Sammy watched without speaking, but his eyebrows remained tightly frowned.
After dinner, Natalia helped Nico clean up the dishes before taking Nancy back to their room.
When they got back to their room, Nancy could no longer pretend to be calm.
"What the hell? Is he gonna sell us to those ugly things?"
Seeing that Nancy seemed to lost her temper, Natalia shushed her with a forefinger to the lips.
Then it occurred to Nancy that Sammy and Nico might still be out there.
It would be terrible if they heard what she said.
So Nancy kept it all to herself and stopped talking.
Natalia walked over to her and sat down on the bed. "Looks like it's worse than I thought. I have a
feeling they'll make a move in less than a month. So we have to do something," whispered Natalia.
Nancy was puzzled and said, "What can we do?"
Natalia pinched her lips and thought for a while. "I'll try to draw a topographic map in the next few days.
Nancy, you should get your injury healed first."
After hearing her words, Nancy felt even more guilty.
"Natalia, sorry, I'm the one to blame. If it wasn't for my injury..."
Natalia laughed out at Nancy's words.
She reached out and stroked Nancy's head. "Silly girl, don't talk nonsense! If it wasn't for you, I would
have been dead on that plane."
In her mind, Nancy was not only her bodyguard, but also her dear friend.
So she would never leave Nancy behind.
Seeing this, Nancy stopped blaming herself. They talked it over for a while, and Natalia didn't go out
until late in the evening when she heard Nico's call.
As usual, Natalia helped Nico make dinner.
Seeing the dried flowers outside the kitchen, Nico said, "it might rain tonight. Put away the dried flowers
so they won't get wet."
"Okay," replied Natalia.
When she went out to collect the flowers, she saw Sammy come into the house.
Yet, somehow, his face looked pale.
It seemed that there was something going on out there.
So Natalia paid more attention to it.
At dinner, she asked casually. "Sammy, I heard there are wolves in that mountain across the way,
right?"
Sammy looked up at her with a serious face. "Who told you?"
Nico's face changed. She hastened to explain, "I told her. Today Seven said that the mountain is
beautiful, and she wants to hike there. So I told her there were wolves."
Sammy's eyes flashed slightly.
Natalia made a sincere smile promptly. "Yeah, Sammy. You know, we are tourists, so of course, we are
interested in the beautiful scenery."
She didn't want to arouse his suspicion.
He said, and a kind of sinister expression marked his face. "Girls should never go there. No one can
help in any kind of an emergency."
Natalia nodded with fake concern. "I see."
"Fine."
There was a strained atmosphere throughout the dinner.
Nancy didn't pay attention to their looks, so she did not notice anything wrong.
After dinner, Nancy and Natalia were driven back to the room by Sammy.
They were a little surprised because it was the first time he had done it.
At the same time, they became more convinced that something was going on out there today.
That was why he was acting so strangely.
Natalia had a nasty feeling. She thought she and Nancy couldn't be so passive anymore.novelbin
So when all the lights went out, she decided to slip out and see what was going on.
However, to her surprise, the door couldn't be opened.
Her face changed.
Nancy hurt her leg. So if it was not necessary, she stayed in bed all the time.
She was curious to see Natalia standing still with her back to her. "What's wrong?"
Natalia said grimly, "the door was locked from the outside."
