The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1039

"Hah! Let's go then Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Then, Noah immediately took off his jacket.

Suddenly, Genevieve opened her mouth to give Noah a reminder.

"Don't forget that Nathaniel is suffering from neuralgia. Be gentle."

Noah was startled when he heard this.

"Genevieve, I'm your husband! Why are you siding with other men?"

Noah was jealous because his wife wasn't paying him any attention at all.

Genevieve smiled and said, "I'm only reminding you about this because you're my husband. Look, I already have to treat Mango's body. What if Nathan's pain flare up again? By then, we will have to take care of two of them. Wouldn't that be an even greater loss?"

Mango and Esther immediately laughed when they heard this.

Then, Noah said reluctantly, "Fine, I'll listen to you. Urgh! I'm so unlucky today."

He stared at Nathaniel coldly and sat back in his seat.

Meanwhile, Eugene looked at the time and frowned.

"Why isn't my wife here yet? I'll go out and have a look. You guys have fun."

They couldn't continue playing mahjong without Eugene as there was only three of them left. Thus, the three men gathered together to discussed the latest economy and military affairs.

"Nathaniel, are you really not going back to the army.?"

Nathaniel glanced at Mango when he heard Noah's question.

Then, he said in a low voice, "I won't. From now on, the place where Mango lives will be my battlefield. The only task I have left to is ensuring that she lives happily and peacefully with me until we grow old." "F*ck! I'm so jealous!"

Noah trembled all over as he exclaimed.

On the other hand, Morgan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Although it's a loss for the military region if you don't come back, everyone has their own choices. I respect you for choosing this life as long as you won't regret it."

"Thank you, boss."

Nathaniel nodded with a smile.

Right at this moment, Emberly came in with the children.

"Sorry, I'm late!"

When Emberly came in with a pair of twins, Esther and Genevieve were stunned for a moment.

"Ah? I never knew that she had twins! I always thought you only had one daughter."

"I thought so too!"

After that, Emberly gestured her child, Evangeline and Emily, to greet the other women.

The adults responded back by gifting them some pocket money.

Nathaniel said lightly, "Hey, that's unfair! Why didn't Rita receive pocket money from you guys? Why are you all favouring Eugene's daughter more?" Everyone in the room could sense the jealousy in his words.

Then, Morgan shook his head with a smile.

Esther quickly explained, "Of course, we've prepared one for Rita. Didn't she go out to play with Bjorn? We will definitely give it to her when they come back."

"That's more like it."

Mango looked at Nathaniel in dismay. How could he be this greedy?

Didn't he already have enough money?

Why did he need more money?

"Cough!"

Mango coughed slightly to remind Nathaniel not to act too childish. However, Nathaniel had misunderstood her sign and quickly kicked Noah.

"Did you hear that? My wife is anxious! Why is your manager taking such a long time to exchange those chips for cash? Urgh! How did you even build up Windsor Square with your mediocre skills?" Noah was furious when he heard this, and he really wanted to beat Nathaniel up right now.

"Please, Nathan, you've won a few hundred thousand dollars! Of course, he'd have to make an appointment in advance to withdraw that sum of money from the bank."

"I don't care!"

Nathaniel said in a provoking manner.

Eugene had returned from the carpark, and he asked hurriedly when he saw how pissed of Noah was, "What's wrong? Are you guys ready to fight?"

"Humph, I won't fight against a patient! Otherwise, people will think that I'm a bully."

Noah put down his fist directly as he said this.

After that, the men gathered together again and chattered away. Meanwhile, Emberly patted Evangeline on the shoulder and said, "Take Emily out to play but don't get lost. Call me if something happens, alright?"

"Okay!"

Evangeline didn't seem to mind, and she left with her twin sister.

Meanwhile, Mango was excited to see Emberly.

"Why are you so late?"

"Ugh, don't mention it. Evangeline beat up her classmate again. I'm worried as we have transferred her out of five kindergartens because of her behaviour. If this continues, will my daughter become famous in Ocean City? What if she can't get married in the future?"

Emberly became worried as soon as she mentioned her daughter.

Esther smiled when she saw how anxious Emberly was and said, "It's fine. Look, at least you can choose any one of the children here as your son-in-law, right?"

Mango was immediately taken aback when she heard Esther's question.

"Wait, are you talking about Zion or Wisdom?"

"Both your sons are excellent, but I like Wisdom more. Do you remember that time when Bettany took Wisdom to attend a medical seminar previously? He was only a four-year-old child, but he was familiar with the professional medical terminology. This stunned all the medical professionals there! Everyone said that he would become the most outstanding doctor in the new generation!"

Emberly Xiao was both internationally certified medical doctor. Therefore, she was well-informed about the happenings in the medical field.

"Yeah, I've also heard about it."

Esther added.

Then, Genevieve plastered on a proud smile on her face.

"Of course, Wisdom is smart! After all, Wisdom's teacher is Yama Hades, who also taught me medical skills."

Meanwhile, Mango was stunned when she heard this.

She didn't know that Wisdom had such great achievements!

Surprisingly, Wisdom didn't tell her anything about it when they video called each other last time.

"Huh? Mango, did you now know about it? You have a shocked expression written all over your face now!"

Emberly immediately asked when she saw Mango's startled expression.

Mango replied with a bitter smile, "I'm a total failure as his mother, right?"

"No, no. You are too lucky to have a child like him! In fact, you don't have to worry about your two sons at all. I would be so happy if one of my daughters end up marrying him!" Anyone could tell that Emberly really liked Wisdom.

On the other hand, Mango was very delighted to hear such good news about Wisdom. In fact, she wanted to discuss with Nathaniel how they could help Bettany more.

Meanwhile, Genevieve smiled and said, "You all are talking about your children happily! However, I haven't even given birth yet! Alas! I don't even know whether my child is a boy or girl." "Didn't you go for a check up?"

Esther asked.

Genevieve shook her head and said, "Noah said that the gender of the baby doesn't matter, and we will cherish it wholeheartedly regardless. You know, I almost gave up knowing that I couldn't get pregnant. However, I believe that my adopted daughter brought us a blessing because she is our pride."

"Yes, it's good that she is willing to learn. When she was young, she didn't have a chance to undergo proper education, so she may fall behind a little compared to the other children at her age. But, it's okay, she will definitely catch up with them soon. But, is she unable to speak?"

Everyone in the room felt rather emotional when they mentioned Barney.

Genevieve had a sad expression on her face as well when she heard this question.

"Noah and I have researched all possible ways to help her, but it seems that we can't treat her condition. Those people back then are too cruel! How could they hurt her like this? Although she doesn't get nightmares anymore at night, she's very quiet and doesn't dare to speak in public. Alas! I am afraid it will affect her mental health if this goes on."

"This is a serious problem indeed. Hmm, I think that you guys should bring her to visit a psychologist. However, it all depends on herself. After all, you and Noah have treated her like your own child, so I believe that she will recover soon."

Mango comforted Genevieve calmly.

After all, no one knew what Barney went through better than her.

While they were chatting, they suddenly heard shouts coming from outside.

"Mommy, someone is fighting!"

Lonnie ran back into the room and told them, and his face was covered in sweat.

After that, Rita ran in and grabbed Mango's hand before saying, "Mommy, my brother and Evangeline are fighting!"

"What?"

Mango immediately stood up in shock.

"Wait, who's fighting her right now?"

"Zion!"

Mango frowned slightly when she heard Zion's name.

How did that brat get here?

However, he had never fought with girls. So, why did he suddenly get into a fight with Eugene's daughter?

"Let's go out and have a look!"

Esther was also worried about the children as well.

The women rushed out hurriedly while the men exchanged glances with each other. After all, Eugene was confident in his daughter's fighting skills and abilities. On the other hand, Nathaniel knew that his son was a gentleman and could never do anything harsh to a girl like Evangeline.

Meanwhile, Morgan and Noah felt they shouldn't get involved since the fathers of the children were not in a hurry to stop the fight.

As Mango and the women ran out, they saw Zion and Evangeline fighting head to head with each other.

Both of them were equally strong.

Initially, Zion didn't want to fight with a girl. However, Evangeline went too far as she grabbed a piece of cake and smashed it on his head.

Zion was so angry because Evangeline had even mocked him. Therefore, he couldn't hold it in any longer, so he made a move on her.

However, he never expected Evangeline to be so fierce and fearless, and her strength was almost comparable to his. Hence, he felt that fighting her was fun.

On the other hand, Evangeline wanted to fight Zion because she simply disliked him.

He was only a kid who was about the same age as her. However, he was wearing his military uniform on such an occasion. Thus, she thought that he was trying to show off his rank.

So what if he was a soldier?

Most importantly, when she was speaking to Zion, he walked past her without bothering to look at her!

She couldn't tolerate his rude behaviour!

Thus, Evangeline grabbed the cake in her hand and threw it onto his head. However, he didn't act like a gentleman at all, and he started attacking her instead.

With that, they started fighting each other.

After all, both of them were unwilling to back down.

Evangeline was confident that she would beat him up in just three moves. However, to her surprise, Zion actually had the upper hand in this fight instead.

When Evangeline saw that she was about to lose, she immediately took a step back. Then, she sat on the ground and started crying hysterically.

"You're bullying me! Boohoo..."

Zion was dumbfounded when he saw that her crying.

After all, his hair was still stained with fresh cream. What on earth was she talking about?

Zion looked angrily at the shameless girl in front of him. Then, Mango and the others appeared when he was at a loss about what to do.

"Zion, what's going on?"

Mango walked over quickly. She was stunned when he saw him in a miserable state.

Evangeline stopped crying when she saw Mango coming out. She was shocked when she noticed Mango walking towards Zion with a loving attitude.

In fact, she was completely stunned!

Did she beat up Uncle Ye's son?

Just then, she heard Emberly's cold voice coming from behind her.

"Evangeline Xiao, what do you think you're doing?"

She was screwed!

Evangeline immediately jumped up and ran behind Zion. She grabbed Zion's clothes with her cream-covered fingers and said pitifully, "You! Please save me!"
