Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 196

"But still you shouldn't let go of her so easily. As long as you want, I can let her tell the truth by all means.” Natalia turned her gaze at Nancy worriedly.

"Nancy, stay cool!"

Natalia knew that Nancy was not just some ordinary bodyguard.

Natalia had never seen a bodyguard as agile and good at fighting as Nancy before. Archie let Nancy protect Natalia to ensure she was safe and sound. It could be concluded that Nancy must have some strengths.

Seeing Natalia's alert look, Nancy was somewhat annoyed and scratched her head.

"I really could not understand. I spared no effort to bring her here, but you let her go. Isn't it a waste of time?"

Natalia shook her head.

"Not at all."

Nancy was confused.

"Jessica has a suspicious nature. She knew you took away Rosa, so she wouldn't believe Rosa anymore even if Rosa went back safe and sound.”

“Jessica is not so nice with Rosa, but Rosa sticks to keeping Jessica's secret. Perhaps Jessica has got something on Rosa.”

“No matter how we tried to pull it out from Rosa, she wouldn't tell the truth and may even have a breakdown. So, I would rather let her go.”

“If Jessica no longer believed Rosa, she would drive Rosa away. By that time, it would be easier for us to handle it."

Nancy opened her eyes wide. Only then did she realize what Natalia planned to do.

Knowing that, Nancy couldn't help but admire Natalia for her deliberation.

Nancy exclaimed, "That's it. You are so smart!"

Natalia smiled, "It's just a little trick. Not a big deal."

As expected, not long after they went back to the set, Vicente asked everyone to be ready for the shooting.

Natalia's make-up was unchanged. She only needed to freshen up.

So did Jessica. However, she didn't perform well today, perhaps because she didn't have a thorough understanding of her part, or she was in a mood.

Even if the lines rolled off the tongue, the emotions of her role were wrong. Vicente became impatient in the end.

Feeling that Jessica's part couldn't be finished today, Vicente asked her to take a rest, so he could shoot other parts.

Jessica felt worse because of that. Seeing Rosa who had come back, Jessica glared at Rosa.

"Where did you go? Why does it take you so long to be back?"

Rosa avoided Jessica's eye.

And she said in a low voice, "I went nowhere."

"Nowhere?" Jessica threw a suspicious gaze at Rosa, "I heard that you were taken away by Nancy?"

Rosa trembled slightly.

Jessica captured it sensitively.

She sneered instantly.

"You must have told her everything."

"I didn't!"

Rosa denied it, but Jessica didn't believe her.

"You didn't? Where were you from the morning to now? Don't tell me that you got lost and spent several hours finding way back! I am not a fool!"

Rosa almost cried.

"Jessica, I didn't lie to you. I was taken away by Nancy. But I didn't tell her no matter how she tried. You should believe me...”

Jessica looked at Rosa coldly.

Rosa was at a loss for what to do and sobbed, "Even if you don't believe me, I need your money to afford my mother's operation. I haven't got the money. Why will I betray you?”

Hearing that, Jessica somewhat believed it.

But she still stared at her in disbelief, "You swear?"

"I swear!"

"Well, I'll trust you for the time being."

She took a deep breath and turned to leave.

Rosa stopped Natalia hurriedly.

"Jessica, you, you said you would give me that money as long I do this thing for you. Can … can you give me now?”

Jessica looked at her and sneered.

"You failed and you still want the money? Do you think it so easy to make money from me? Rosa."

Rosa was stunned and hurriedly shook her head.

"No, I don’t."

"Rest assured. I will give what you deserve, but you have to do me another favor.”

Hearing that, Rosa's face turned pale.

"What, what?"

Jessica waved to Rosa and whispered in her ear.

On the other side.

After Jessica was ordered to rest, Natalia was acting against Mac, who played the role of the emperor.

They finished the shooting very smoothly.

Natalia left the set at seven in the evening because she had finished her part for the day.

Natalia changed her clothes and went to the hotel with Nancy after packing her things.

Nancy said in a low voice, "As expected, Jessica got something on Rosa.”

Natalia raised her eyebrows without feeling surprised.

"What is it?"

"Her mother was ill and she needed money for her mother's operation. Jessica promised to pay for the operation."

Natalia smiled.

"She is dutiful."

Nancy sighed.

She hated Rosa's deeds very much, but now mixed feelings filled her heart.

"She is poor.”

"Did Jessica give her money?"

"No, Jessica wanted Rosa to do one more thing."

It was not beyond Natalia's expectation.

"What did Natalia want Rosa to do?”

Nancy frowned and shook her head, "I didn't get it since I was too far away from them, and their voice was low.”

Natalia was not surprised.

"Never mind. Wait and see in the evening."

When they went back to the hotel, Natalia took a bath.

Although the cinema park was remote, it was quite prosperous because all kinds of crews would come here throughout the year.

There was a food street not far from the hotel. Natalia was in a good mood, so she decided to go there with Nancy.

As they went out, a furtive figure followed them stealthily and appeared at the door of their room.

The thin figure looked around. Only after she had made sure no one was around did she take out the room card and opened the door.

When she went into the room, she felt relieved to find no one was inside and began to have a rummage around.

"Where is it?”

Rosa frowned. Natalia and Nancy only stayed here for a while. Natalia took a shower, but she had no time to hide things, so that thing should be easy to find.

She didn't take it out with her, did she?

Impossible.

They went out for supper. It would be troublesome if they lost it outside, so Natalia must have put it in her room.

Thinking about that, Rosa became more focused.
