Chapter 68 Insulting the Mistress (1)

Nicholas quickly found the store and determined Nancy’s location from the information in the message.

When he opened the door and was about to look for Nancy, Lynn walked in and reported a very urgent matter.

After Nicholas listened, he frowned and ordered, Immediately gather the board of directors for a meeting.”

“Yes, Mr. Sallow.”

Therefore, the matter of finding Nancy was put on hold for a while.

Nancy and Linda continued shopping. They had already visited everything, except for the jewelry. counter on the first floor.

Nancy initially didn’t have much interest in jewelry, She held Linda’s arm and looked troubled. “Linda, I don’t want to go.”

“Why?”

“Those jewelries are very expensive. I don’t feel good about squandering his money like this.”

Nancy has been frugal since she was a child. Even after she married into the Sallows, she never developed extravagant habits..

“Squandering?” Linda looked at Nancy in surprise and tugged on her little ears. “Nancy, what are you thinking about? If this little money is considered a squandering your husband, you are looking down on him.”

“This little money was nothing for the Sallows.”

Nancy blinked and her eyes moved quickly. “Does he make that much?”

Although she knew the Sallows were powerful and wealthy, Nancy always felt that it was exaggerated. She had never asked about it, so she didn’t know how much money the Sallows could earn.

“Then let me ask you. Nancy, do you think I make a lot of money?”

Nancy nodded immediately. “Of course.”

“Well, just imagine Nicholas makes hundreds or thousands of the money I earn. Do you think he carns a lot?”

1/4 When Nancy heard this, she immediately spread her fingers and started counting.

In the end, she was completely dizzy.

Linda grabbed her hand. “Okay, forget it. You only need to know one thing. Your husband is rich. Very, very rich. Not just ordinary rich, he is crazy rich. So, spend the money however you want.”

“Listen, if you don’t spend a few millions today, you won’t be able to live up to his financial strength.”

Linda’s words instantly made Nancy laugh.

Moreover, she felt that what Linda said was very reasonable.

“Let’s go then. I’ll pay for all the jewelry you like today,” Nancy said as she patted her chest.

Linda smiled mischievously. “Aren’t you afraid I will blackmail you?”

“Didn’t you say Nicholas makes a lot of money? Money is just a string of numbers. I will change. this number today.”

“Okay. Then I’d rather obey.”

Immediately, the two held hands and happily walked into the jewelry store.

Based on the shop assistant’s enthusiastic recommendation, both took a fancy to a pearl necklace.

Unlike diamonds, pearl necklaces were just a string of white pearls that didn’t look eye-catching.

However, the pearls on the necklace are round and bright. They felt pleased looking at it at first. glance.

The two fell in love with the color at first sight.

Moreover, the pearl necklace made their neck looked gorgeous and enhance their complexion. Both of them liked it very much.

“I’d like two of this.”

After that, Nancy handed the bank card directly to the shopping guide.

At this moment, she seemed to enjoy a bit of the pleasure and excitement of rich people.

The feeling of spending money on your own was indeed different.

Linda smiled and handed over her bank card. “Dutch pay.”

Nancy pouted and looked at her with dissatisfaction. “You agreed to let me pay for it. It’s a present 2/4 for you. Why did you go back on your word?”

“Forget it. It’s easy to take advantage of someone’s kindness. If I spend Nicholas’ money, what if I end up having to defend him or reveal some information to him next time? It wouldn’t be fair to you.”

“So I won’t give him a chance to bribe me.”

After Nancy heard this, she no longer insisted.

She knew Linda’s character. It would be difficult to change her decision.

The two paid the bill and put necklaces on each other.

Just as they were leaving the store, they saw two familiar figures.

Initially, Nancy didn’t want to see one of them, but then a pair showed up.

Nancy held Linda’s arm and wanted to avoid them.

Not that she’s afraid of them, Nancy simply couldn’t be bothered to waste her words on people like them. She felt that spending time on such people was a complete waste of life.

However, Madelline called out to her, “Nancy, what a coincidence. I didn’t expect to meet you here.”

“Oh yeah? I didn’t expect it either.” Nancy’s voice was cold.

At this time, Alice came over and ran to Nancy angrily. She raised her head and looked at her. angrily. “Are you Nancy Cohen?

Last time, you hid it from me so well that I got into trouble!”

“In the past, everyone gave in to you and protected you because of Grandpa. Now that Grandpa is gone, who else can protect you?”

Madelline immediately knew there was a story between them. She looked at Alice and asked gently, “What’s wrong? Nancy is a very nice person! Is there any misunderstanding between you two?”

“There’s no misunderstanding,” Alice said decisively.

Then she looked at Madelline. “Don’t you know, Madelline? She was the one who caused me to be thrown out of the Sallows by my grandfather and Nicholas last time. I was in such a mess and became a joke to everyone.”

“What?” Madelline exclaimed.

Then she looked at Nancy with a look of disbelief. “Nancy, you wouldn’t do such a thing, would you? Alice is just a little girl. She doesn’t understand anything yet. If she did anything to offend 3/4 you. I apologize on her behalf.”

“Ms. Madelline, do you have that good of a reputation that you can apologize on behalf of others? What a pity...Nancy looked at her and said word by word, “I don’t accept it.”

“Nancy, do you have to be so aggressive? I know you don’t like me because of Nicholas, but Alice. is Nicholas’ sister, after all.

Although it’s not biological, but they are the only siblings in the Sallows for several generations. Even if Nicholas blamed Alice, they are family, after all. They won’t hold grudges in their hearts.”

When Alice heard this, she immediately agreed, “Yes, Madelline is right. Nicholas will always be my brother, and I will always be his sister. Our relationship can’t be denied. But you are different. You are just an adopted daughter who was brought back to the Sallows by Grandpa. Once Grandpa’s gone, no one will acknowledge your identity. Now you’re just a stray dog. You’re nothing.

Do you think you can still bite people?”

Alice’s words were very unpleasant.

However, Nancy stood her ground.

If she couldn’t even stand up to these words, as the daughter-in-law of the Sallows, how could she do the things Jacob had asked her to do and support the Sallows in the future.

Nancy smiled and looked at Alice with a gentle smile. “You’re right, of course I can’t bite.”

“A dog is ignorant. She bit me once. Do I also have to bite the dog?”

Nancy calmly mocked Alice.

Alice rushed towards Nancy angrily. She raised her hand and slapped Nancy.
