The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1045

"Why does it look like you're busier than me?"

Thomas was reluctant to let Rainie go, so he continued to hold her in his arm. In fact, he really wished that he didn't have to go to work at this hour.

He continued to pester Rainie, so she poked his nose and smiled in amusement. "Stop it, will you? Do you think you're an ancient emperor? Well, you despise me for not being able to serve you alone, and you want to have other concubines, don't you?"

"Of course not, you're my one and only wife!"

Rainie was pleased to hear how Thomas was flattering her. After all, she was a woman that loved to hear praises.

"Forget it. I'll get going now. Ares is calling me, so he probably urging me to go back to record songs. Everyone has put in great efforts to make this album a hit. Besides, Mango's production company has just started, and it needs my help. That's the least I can do for her."

Rainie looked at Thomas seriously and said.

Thomas knew her like the back of his hand. He knew that once she decided to do something, she would go all out.

"Alright, we will get married once we both have more free time. I heard that Walter tied the knot, but we are way behind him. What a pity!"

Rainie couldn't help but laugh after hearing Thomas' complaints and said, "Haha! What are you competing with him for?"

"Why can't I do that? After all, he only met Deborah a short while ago, and they're married now! What's more, we've been together for years, so it's about time we get married."

"Knock it off! Where's your marriage proposal? After all, I'm not Deborah, so I guess you'll have to wait a little longer."

After saying that, Rainie pushed him away and walked out of the door.

"I'll walk you out then."

Thomas quickly got dressed and caught up with her.

On the other hand, Nathaniel had no idea what Thomas was going through. He threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and travelled downtown to buy a cake for Mango. Mango smelled the aroma of food after she woke up from her nap.

"What is it? It smells so good!"

She went downstairs and saw Nathaniel reading newspapers on the couch. So, she asked this question.

Nathaniel folded the newspaper he was holding with a smile and said, "I cooked some duck soup for you, but it's boiling now. So, I think you can drink it at night."

"Duck soup? Did you buy it from the supermarket?"

"Nah, it's fresh. I got it from the wet market."

Nathaniel smiled as he answered her question. Then, Mango immediately leaned over. She reached out her hand and wrapped it around his neck and sat on his thigh like a spoiled child before saying, "Hmm, how do you think I should repay you?"

"Hey! Stop fooling around!"

Nathaniel pulled her arms down, but he was reluctant to drive her away.

Then, Mango complained with displeasure, "What's wrong? Since we can't make love, you're not allowing me to sit on you now?"

"What? Can't you phrase it in a proper way? Hah, Mango! I'll teach you a lesson once this period is over!" "Meh!"

Mango gave him a disdain look.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel was upset after hearing this.

How dare she tease him?

"Just you wait!"

"Hehe. Let's see what happens!"

After that, Mango turned and immediately discovered the cake box.

"Did you buy that for your daughter?"

"Nah, I bought it for you. Eat it quickly. Once Rita comes back, you won't get to eat anything!"

Nathaniel stretched out his hand and handed the cake to her as he said this.

Looking at the package on the box, Mango said in surprise, "What? Did you make a trip downtown on purpose to buy these two slices of cake?"

"Well, I didn't go there on purpose. Besides, I remembered that you like this chestnut cake, right?"

Nathaniel smiled warmly, and Mango was immediately delighted.

What was the purpose of having a husband?

Of course, he should buy her food!

What would Nathaniel do if he knew that he could bribe her with only two pieces of cake.?

Mango took the cake and looked at it, and she found out that this was indeed her favourite chestnut cake. Hence, she didn't wait any longer and gobbled it down in just a few bites in an unladylike manner. Nathaniel had been watching her lovingly, and he immediately handed her a glass of water once she was done.

"Why are you eating in such a hurry? No one will take it away from you."

"Urgh! I'm afraid of Rita. That glutton will definitely eat it all up when she sees it."

Mango spoke as she ate, and suddenly, she started choking. Thus, Nathaniel quickly handed her the water.

She drank a few mouthfuls of water and finally felt, better.

"Eat slowly. Besides, Rita will not be back anytime soon."

Nathaniel patted her back with a worried expression on his face.

Mango hurriedly said, "Can you be gentler? My injuries haven't healed fully yet."

"I am doing it gently!"

Nathaniel said hurriedly.

Just as Mango was about to say something, she received a call from Rainie.

"Mango, I've already returned to B City because they needed to finish the recordings urgently. I heard that an actress in your company got into a scandal. Have you settled it yet?"

Mango sighed and said, "Not yet. Clarissa should have collected enough evidence, so we can hold a press conference to clarify it then."

"What? How can you do nothing? This news is all over the place, and the netizens are scolding her for being a heartless woman. You'd better deal with it as soon as possible, otherwise, things might get ugly. By the way, is it possible that someone is deliberately making trouble behind the scenes? After all, this is too much of a coincidence! It happened right after she arrived at our company."

Rainie was confused about this.

However, Mango said indifferently, "No matter who did it, I'm planning to take it one step at a time. After all, I'll do what it takes to settle this issue, so let's think about everything else later." "Wow, you're so calm now!"

"What else can I do about it? Should I worry about it constantly? I can't do that! Besides, I knew that I would often some people once I opened a company, but it's not like I can stop them from coming after me, right? Let's see how this goes then."

Mango's words rendered Rainie speechless.

"Alright, you win. I'll get back to work first. See you later. Let's keep in touch."

"Okay. Bye!"

After hanging up, Mango did a stretch and found Nathaniel staring at hers.

"What's wrong? Did I get some cream on my face?"

"Why didn't you tell me that something had happened to your company?"

Nathaniel furrowed his brows as he asked her.

Was his wife neglecting him now? Why did he feel that he wasn't important to her at all?

However, Mango said indifferently, "It's just a small matter. Clarissa has already dealt with it herself, so there was no need to alert you."

"Aww! Honey, I don't think you need me anymore."

Nathaniel retracted his arm and wrapped her in his embrace.

Mango suddenly laughed when she heard what he said.

"Not really, I will still need you if I can't handle it. I just don't want you to be stressed out."

"Well, I'm always willing to help my wife out."

Nathaniel was really good at flattering her!

On the other hand, Mango was delighted to hear all these praises.

"Urgh! I'm cringing because of your remarks! I'm going to take a shower now."

"Sure, I'll take you out for a watch a good show after this."

Mango paused for a moment when she heard what Nathaniel had said, s

"Hmm? Are we going to watch a movie?"

"Yes, so hurry up!"

Nathaniel remained secretive and refused to tell her anything.

However, Mango didn't bother to ask. After all, she would find out the truth one way or another.

After that, she went upstairs and took a shower. Perhaps it was she had eaten her favourite cake, but she was really in a good mood today, and she felt absolutely great! Then, Mango changed into a comfortable set of clothes and went downstairs. Meanwhile, Nathaniel was already dressed, so she quickly walked over and grabbed his arm. "What do you think of my outfit of the day?"

Nathaniel looked at her beautiful face and said with great satisfaction, "You look amazing!" "Let's go then."

Then, the two of them got into the car.

Nathaniel drove the car to the hospital immediately.

Although Mango was curious, she did not ask anything.

Not long after they entered the hospital, Mango saw the parents of the Shen family rushing over. Meanwhile, there were prison guards following them from behind.

"What's going on?"

Mango tugged at Nathaniel's sleeve and asked softly.

Nathaniel smiled and said, "Gisella is suffering from acute kidney failure. I asked someone to inform her parents, but I didn't expect them to arrive so fast. Well, what a pity! I think they'll be disappointed later." Mango immediately understood the meaning behind Nathaniel's words.

"Are you sure that Gisella is not their biological daughter? Did you do a DNA test?"

"Well, I don't need to do one since we'll find about it soon. Gisella is suffering from severe kidney failure, and now she urgently needs a kidney replacement. At this critical moment, her parents will definitely volunteer to donate it and sacrifice their lives. Thus, the DNA that they'll do later will reveal the truth."

Nathaniel said this lightly with a cold gaze.

On the other hand, Mango did not plan to plead for mercy on the Shen family's behalf.

If this had happened in the past, Mango would worry that they could not handle this information. However, she had learned her lesson.

Now, she no longer had any feelings for the parents of the Shen family. Right now, they were like strangers to her.

Soon, the nurse came out of the operating room.

"Is Gisella Shen's family here?"

"Yes! We are her parents!"

Mrs. Shen was having a hard time, so she looked a lot older than before.

Meanwhile, Mr. Shen also lost his usual proud demeanour, and he only had a darkened gaze. Then, the two of them hurriedly rushed forwards while looking extremely worried.

The nurse said in a low voice, "What is your relationship with the patient!"

"We're her parents!"

"Then hurry up. Which one of you has an Rh-negative blood type? You should hurry up and donate it to her. The patient is bleeding inside and the situation is a little dangerous."

The nurse was about to leave, but Mr. Shen grabbed her.

"Wait, what are you saying? What's my daughter blood type?"

"Rh- negative blood! It's a rare blood group and often short in supply. Since you're her parents, either one of you will have this blood type. Now that her live is at stake, you guys should hurry up."

Mr. and Mrs. Shen were stunned after hearing this.

"That's impossible! I'm type B, and my wife is type A. How could our daughter be Rh-negative?"

Arsenic had raised his voice. So, his loud voice was ear-piercing to all of them.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Shen also looked at the nurse in disbelief and asked, "Did you make a mistake? Our daughter can't have Rh-negative blood type!"

"How could we make a mistake? We are a hospital, so we must be responsible for the patients! If your daughter has a different blood type, we can only tell you that she's not your biological daughter! In any case, she needs blood urgently so that we can save her life, so please think of a solution. The blood supply we have is limited, and it will take time to get blood from another hospital."

After that, the nurse broke free from Arsenic's grip and entered the operating room again.

Gisella's parents stood still there in disbelief, and the words of the nurse just echoed in their minds.

She had said, "If your daughter has a different blood type, we can only tell you that she's not your biological daughter!"

Gisella wasn't their biological daughter?

How could that be possible?
