My Wife Is So Sweet novel Chapter 719

Chapter 719 Anxiety

She wondered if he could have this place located and come to the rescue.

Her mind ran wild as she got drowsier and drowsier. After a while, she fell asleep.

At the same time...

In Ambario...

At the Pinewood Manor.

Archie hadn't slept for two days in a row.

He was sitting before the computer and remotely controlling something. His eyes were red.

It had just been two days, and he had already stubble on his face. His eye sockets had sunk, and his face was grim.

His phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and asked, "How is it? Any updates?"

Brian's guilty voice came from the other side of the phone. "I'm sorry, Mr. McCarthy. There's nothing new yet."

"You guys are good-for-nothing!"

Archie yelled, with blue veins popping out on his forehead.

After a while, he said, "Pack your stuff. I'll go with you!"

Brian was startled. He stammered, "Well... that..."

"Cut the crap!"

Archie didn't give Brian any chance to argue. He hung up the phone immediately.

Then he picked his coat on the chair and headed out.

Dottie and other servants were looking after Oliver and Anne in the living room.

Seeing Archie coming downstairs, they looked at him with expectations in their eyes.

Natalia said she would come back the day before yesterday, but she still hadn't shown up yet. There was no way for Archie to hide this.

Oliver was too young to know what was happening, but Anne was old enough. When she saw her father work around the clock for the past two days, she knew there must be something wrong.

Her eyes were puffy, maybe because she had cried just now. She ran over to Archie as soon as she saw him.

"Daddy!"

Anne hugged his legs and asked, "Will Mommy be back? Can she be back?"

Archie's eyes looked gloomy.

He picked her up and said calmly, "She will be back, safe and sound."

"Really?"

"Yes, I promise."

He would take her back wherever she was and at any cost.

Anne bit her lips and believed him. She nodded vigorously.

"Then I'll wait for Mommy here."

"Okay."

Archie put Anne down and stroked Oliver's head. Then he said to Anne, "Take care of your little brother. I'll be off for a while. Listen to Mrs. Dottie when I'm not home. Never leave the house, Okay?"

Nancy nodded vigorously again.

Archie strode out of the living room.

Soon after he left, William and Ariana came over.

Those living in the Pinewood Manor knew now about Natalia's plane crash. William and Ariana didn't know because they didn't come by very often.

After Natalia finished drinking, Nancy looked at the door. Then she inclined to Natalia's ear and whispered, "I woke up early, so I checked this place while everybody was still asleep. The door was locked, but there was a window in the kitchen. I climbed out of the window and saw nothing but barren mountains. I don't think we can negotiate with them."

Natalia nodded.

"Yes, I realized that when I came over."

She pursed her lips and fell in silence for a while. Then she said, "We still didn't know who those assassins on the plane were. It's bad that we are being trapped here, but at least we can get rid of them temporarily and stay safer."

Nancy agreed with Natalia.

"It's just that we don't know if they are really human traffickers, and if they really are, we should be more careful."

Natalia curled her lips and smiled, "Don't be afraid. They were after money, not our lives. In that respect, they are better for those assassins."

That was true. Nancy felt less nervous when thinking about that.

After a short rest, they got dressed and went downstairs.

Sammy and his wife were already awake. His wife was making breakfast in the kitchen, and he was sitting on the porch, smoking and reading a newspaper.

Sammy was almost 60 years old now. He was one of the eldest people in this village and the chief.

Everyone called his wife Nico. She was a bit of a pushover and always listened to her husband.

Nancy learned that they had a son working in another village.

The village was a great distance away from here. Given the inconvenient transportation here, it would take a day and night to get there in a bullock cart.

Therefore, their son seldom came back.

Sammy and his wife stayed at home and sometimes farmed. Their life was peaceful.

Sammy was well respected in the village. Most people here would listen to him.

For example, when Nancy got injured, the village doctor treated her first instead of a man in another village because Nancy was saved by Sammy.
