The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1034

"What's wrong? Did I say something that offended you again?"

Mango couldn't find a reason to be angry at him when she heard Nathaniel saying the word 'again'.

"Nah, I'm not planning to buy anything for you either. Let's go."

She pulled Nathaniel away, and the latter was completely dumbfounded.

"Huh? I thought you wanted to eat some cake."

"I'm on a diet."

"You're paper-thin, so why are you still trying to lose weight? Anyways, it's indeed unhealthy to have sweet food at night."

Mango almost had an urge to shut Nathaniel up after hearing his ridiculous words.

"Let's walk around the supermarket then."

Mango saw a supermarket nearby and immediately pulled him with her.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel was still trying to figure out what Mango had been trying to say outside the cake shop just now.

"So, what were you trying to do outside the cake

shop just now?"

Seeing his confused expression, Mango couldn't help but sigh. "I'm just reminding you that your birthday is coming soon. Do you remember what I told you when I went to visit you? I said that I wanted the two of us to go on a trip on your birthday. But I don't think that have any plans for it. Urgh! Nathaniel, can you pay more attention to my words?"

Nathaniel felt a little wronged.

"Darling, how do you know I haven't done anything for it? In fact, I've already completed all the preparations!"

"What? I haven't even told you the location of our trip, so how did you prepare for it? Besides, did you tell me about this?"

Nathaniel knew that he had told Mango about wanting to go to Angolla. However, he could tell from her expression that she had forgotten all about it.

Nathaniel sighed secretly and repeated his plans again.

"I even applied for our visa. Aren't we going to check whether Lebanon's mother is your aunt?"

"Oh, yeah, I think that did happen. But I don't want to waste your birthday on that. Nathaniel, I want to spend some time alone with you on your birthday." Mango pouted her mouth and looked at him with expectant eyes.

Then, Nathaniel said with a smile, "Why don't we go out to the sea then?"

"Are we going alone?"

"Whatever you want."

"No one else is allowed, not even Rita!"

Mango declared her ownership over Nathaniel childishly.

Nathaniel loved how assertive she was acting, and he quickly agreed, "Okay."

"Don't you dare go back on your words when your daughter starts begging you to bring her along!"

Mango knew him like the back of her hand.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel was left speechless, "Well, if I don't remind her about my birthday, she probably won't remember it."

"I hope that happens!"

Soon, they arrived at the supermarket.

The supermarket had a lot of promotions today, so there was a crowd here.

Mango was afraid that Nathaniel would be snatched away by the aunties. Therefore, she grabbed his arm tightly to keep him by her side.

Nathaniel couldn't help but smile when she saw

Mango treating him as a child.

He felt delighted indeed.

Although they bicker all the time, he enjoyed having her around all the time.

Then, Mango dragged Nathaniel all over the supermarket. After she had picked out the items she wanted, both of them stood in line to pay the bill. During this whole time, he remained well-behaved and patient, no matter what she did.

After leaving the supermarket, Mango wanted to look around in other stores, but she had no more energy left.

It was so tiring!

She really needed a good rest after this.

Upon noticing her weary expression, Nathaniel said softly, "I'll carry you back."

"It's alright. You still have to carry the bags."

"Nah, it's fine. Come on up. We'll get up early and do some morning exercises tomorrow."

She was moved by his caring words initially. However, she was totally displeased when she heard what he had planned for tomorrow.

"Nathaniel Ye, you are so cruel!"

"I think there's nothing wrong with my suggestion. After all, we have to stay healthy and grow old together."

Nathaniel never changed his mind even though Mango kept begging him with her adorable expressions.

After all, he knew that Mango really needed some exercise.

"Urgh! What kind of suggestion is that? I just want to sleep in!"

"You can sleep when you come back from your morning exercises."

Nathaniel provided a perfect solution to her problems.

Although Mango was a little depressed, she knew that she had to get some regular exercise to stay healthy and live a longer life.

"Okay, but I don't want to do any high- intensity exercises."

"Alright, I'll try my best."

Then, he squatted down in front of Mango.

Mango climbed onto his back when she remembered that she had to do exercises the next morning.

Nathaniel's back was warm and wide, and it gave her a sense of security.

Perhaps she was tired from all the walking, so she slowly fell asleep on his back.

Nathaniel was surprised when he heard her even breathing. Then, he smiled and carried her steadily on his back until they reached the Ye's Mansion.

Meanwhile, Rita was extremely excited when she saw Nathaniel return, as she quickly pounced onto him. Suddenly, she furrowed her eyebrows after noticing Mango sleeping on Nathaniel's back. "Argh! Mommy is an adult already. Why does she still need you to carry her?"

Rita sounded very dissatisfied.

Nathaniel smiled and said, "Even if mommy is old, she is still my wife. So, as her husband, I should carry her everywhere she goes."

"Does every husband do that?"

"Of course!"

Nathaniel rubbed Rita's head gently and smiled. After that, he carried Mango back into the bedroom.

He took off her shoes and noticed that the soles of her feet were slightly red and swollen. Then, he took off his jacket and went to the bathroom to fetch a basin of hot water to rinse her feet. However, Mango was feeling uncomfortable because his actions had disturbed her sleep. Thus, she lifted her feet forcefully, and the water that he was using to rinse her feet splashed all over his body. Nathaniel looked at her with a smile and said, "Be a good girl, alright? You can continue sleeping.

"How am I supposed to fall asleep when you're washing my feet?"

Mango muttered with her eyes closed.

"Just sleep. You will feel better when you wake up tomorrow morning once I rinse your feet."

Nathaniel massaged her ankles and soles as he gently rinsed her feet with warm water.

Mango fell back to sleep once again because his massage was too comfortable.

After that, Nathaniel wiped her feet and placed them on the bed. When he got up to drain the water, he noticed Rita standing at the door and looking at him.

"Hmm, what's wrong, Rita?"

"Daddy, will all husbands spoil their women like this after they get married?"

Rita blinked her big eyes and asked curiously.

"Of course!"

"Then I'll go find a husband too!"

Nathaniel was flustered after hearing her words.

"What are you talking about? You're still young! You can only find a husband until you grow up."

"Ah? Aww, that's such a pity!"

Rita turned around and walked out with a gloomy face.

Nathaniel felt upset when he saw that.

What nonsense was this brat thinking about?

He shook his head. Then, he poured out the water from the basin and took a shower.

When he came out, he discovered that Mango had kicked away the blanket. He immediately checked the temperature of the air conditioner and adjusted it again. At the same time, he also covered the blanket on her.

After that, he went downstairs.

Lucy had already prepared food, and Nathaniel carried the bags of ingredients in. Just then, he received a call from Ned.

"Mr. Ye, you asked me to keep an eye on Charlotte. So, I found something."

"Tell me about it."

"Charlotte knocked into Madam's car at the parking lot last time."

Nathaniel frowned slightly when he heard Ned's words.

He knew that someone had knocked into Mango's car. However, he could tell that this matter had gotten complicated once he heard Ned talking about it.

"What did you find?"

"I investigated the security cameras in the parking lot, and it shows that Charlotte had knocked into Madam's car on purpose. It wasn't an accident, so I'll send you the footage later."

"All right."

Nathaniel said faintly.

Ned continued, "Also, I also found out that Charlotte's uncle owns the car service centre that Madam sent her car for repair."

Upon hearing this, Nathaniel suddenly narrowed his eyes.

How could Charlotte's uncle own the repair shop that Mango had sent her car to? This was too much of a coincidence!

Since Charlotte had deliberately rammed into Mango's car, she definitely knew Mango's car plate number. Furthermore, her uncle was the owner of the repair shop, so both of them would definitely benefit from this incident.

If Mango had been in the car then, then it was likely that she would have been harmed by that accident.

At the thought of this, Nathaniel was furious, and a murderous expression flashed through his gaze. Meanwhile, Lucy couldn't help but shiver in fear upon seeing his expression.

Rita also quietly went back to her room to watch cartoons on her computer.

After all, her daddy looked too terrifying!

At this moment, Nathaniel was burning with anger.

Charlotte was obviously targeting Mango.

He couldn't believe that a naive girl like her actually dared to plot against his wife. This was something that he could not forgive!

Hah! He used to think that she was a good match for Walter.

Nathaniel felt that he had totally misjudged her!

"Send a message to the service centre and dismiss Charlotte's uncle. Also, notify all the merchants that if anyone dares to hire Charlotte Ramires, I will shut down their business immediately."

Initially, Nathaniel hadn't wanted to take action against Charlotte. After all, he would only waste his time and effort. However, if she was trying to harm Mango, this was the price that she had to pay for her actions.

Ned knew that Nathaniel was angry, so he quickly carried out the orders.

After hanging up the phone, the trace of coldness and fierceness still remained in Nathaniel's eyes.

Then, he grabbed his jacket and went out.

Soon, he came to the hospital, and he saw Deborah persuading Walter to eat.

"Deborah, I can eat it myself. I injured my legs and not my hands!"

"Oh, but it's better to let me feed you. Open your mouth."

Deborah did everything for him, and she even washed Walter's undergarments. Thus, Walter felt really embarrassed.

Wasn't Deborah the princess of her family?

She probably did not even wash her own clothes!

But she had actually washed his underwear!

Thus, Walter felt even more awkward around her because of this.

However, Nathaniel had arrived right on time.

Thus, Walter was pleased and relieved when he saw Nathaniel coming in.

"Nathaniel, you're here!"

"Deborah, you go out for a while. I have something to say to Walter."

Nathaniel had an upset expression on his face when he said this.

Deborah was a clever person, and she could tell

that Nathaniel really had something to discuss with Walter. So, she immediately got up and leave.

"I'm going out to buy some books. Have fun, guys. Call me if you need anything."

Walter remained silent.

So, Deborah walked out directly.

After she left, there was only Nathaniel and Walter left in the room. Then, Walter frowned and asked, "Why do you look so pissed? Did I do something wrong again?"

"What's with Charlotte Ramirez? Tell me everything about her!"

Walter was slightly annoyed after hearing what Nathaniel had said.

"Huh? Why should I do that?"

"She tried to harm Mango! Is this a sufficient reason?"

When Walter heard Nathaniel's words, his face turned ghastly immediately.
