The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1048

Nathaniel suddenly regretted coming out when he noticed Mango's expression.

"Honey, I'm begging for mercy!"

Normally, he would have been delighted if Mango acted this way. However, how could she be so greedy during such a critical period?

Mango suddenly laughed when she heard his words.

She never thought that Nathaniel would be so desperate one day because of her.

"I didn't even say what I was going to do yet. So why did you react this way?"

Mango said with a smile. Then, she got up and threw the towel over his head.

"Sit down."

Nathaniel did not dare not to disobey her order.

As long as Mango wasn't asking him for something he couldn't give, he would grant all of her wishes.

After Nathaniel sat down, Mango used a towel and a hairdryer to dry his hair. Then, she handed him his clothes.

"Don't come out next time without drying your hair. Do you know that you look very seductive in damp hair? I might want to do something bad to you."

"So it was my fault?"

Nathaniel smiled helplessly as he said that.

"Oh, well, is it my fault then?"

"Nah, I'll admit it. It was my mistake."

Mango was startled when Nathaniel admitted his mistake, and she didn't know how to tease him any longer.

"I'll let it slide for now, then."

After they hung out, Nathaniel went back to his office to settle some business matters.

Meanwhile, Mango had a good night's sleep.

It was already past 10 o'clock when she woke up the next morning, and Nathaniel was no longer by her side.

He said that he wanted to do some morning exercises with her a few days ago. However, he allowed her to sleep late this morning.

Mango got up and washed herself up, but there were still no signs of Nathaniel.

Just then, Lucy brought over a bowl of bird's nest for Mango.

"Madam, Sir asked you to have a bowl of this after getting up." "Where is he?"

Mango asked, and then she yawned as she felt very tired.

Strangely, she felt exceptionally wearied out today. However, she remembered that she didn't do anything special yesterday.

Lucy quickly said, "Mr. Ye went to the company early in the morning. It seems that he has something to do at the company. He asked you not to wait for him. He probably won't come back at noon." "Alright, thank you."

Mango waved her hand to dismiss Lucy and drank the bird's nest. Then, she started scrolling through Twitter as usual. However, her expression changed when she started reading the news.

Her company's artist, Lilith Aiken's, press conference was screwed up!

How could this happen?

Clarissa Powell had worked for Nathaniel, and she had an excellent track record. Besides, she could handle Lilith's scandal easily if she collected enough evidence to defend the artist. Hence, how could she screw it up?

Mango frowned upon reading all the negative comments about Lilith on the internet. Besides, some netizens even criticised her production company.

"I'm going out for a bit."

Mango put on her coat and hopped on her car. Then, she headed straight for Nathaniel's company. When she arrived, she met Charlotte at the entrance. Why was Charlotte here?

Mango frowned slightly when she saw this and got out of the car.

"Mango, may I have a word with you?"

Charlotte stopped Mango and asked her.

Mango said somewhat anxiously, "I have something to settle right now. I'll talk to you later."

She wanted to leave after saying those words, but Charlotte stopped her again.

"Mango, I really have something I need your help with. I'm begging you!"

Charlotte looked pitiful. However, Mango looked at her with a cold expression on her face.

"Did I stutter? Or are you deaf? I said that I have something to do now!"

"But it's an urgent matter."

Charlotte lowered her head while looking as if she had been wronged.

Mango snorted coldly and said, "I know your problem is urgent, but what about mine? Do you think people have the duty to help you just because you want them to? Please understand this, you're asking for my help now. I'm only helping you out of kindness, but I'm not obligated to do so. So, can you stop acting all sad and pitiful?"

The company's matters were an emergency, so this was her top priority. Therefore, Mango was not in the mood to waste any more time with her. Hence, she was angry because Charlotte didn't understand her current situation right now.

However, Charlotte didn't think so.

She felt that Mango was bullying her and purposely making things difficult for her. Then, she said, "I got it. You're looking down on me now ever since Walter and Deborah got married, aren't you? Wait, perhaps you already looked down on me from the start. I guess was stupid enough to believe that you were a good person."

Mango furrowed her brows in displeasure when she heard Charlotte's remarks. Then, her hatred for Charlotte had instantly escalated.

"Do you think you have a special privilege just because you're vulnerable and at a state of disadvantage? Do you think we owe you on that? Who cares so much about your issue? Get out of the way!" After saying this, Mango pushed Charlotte aside.

Although she was angry, she did not push her forcefully. However, Charlotte suddenly fell to the ground, and tears fell down her face.

"Mango, how can you do this to me?"

Her voice was not loud, but everyone around them could hear it.

Soon, they were surrounded by flashing lights as a swarm of reporters crowded all around them.

"Mrs. Ye, what are you doing?"

"Mrs. Ye, I heard that you are the president of Illimite Entertainment. Are you venting your anger on a passerby because of what had happened to your company's artist, Lilith Aiken?"

"Mrs. Ye, although you are Nathaniel Yes wife, you can't bully others like this, can you?"

The reporters around questioned her with criticism and condemnation.

Mango immediately understood what was going on when she heard this.

She glanced at Charlotte, and she caught the latter's cunning smile just in time.

However, Mango became calm and composed

instead.

She crossed her arms and looked at Charlotte before saying with a smile, "Are you an innocent passerby?"

"Mrs. Ye, I..."

Charlotte had even changed the way she addressed Mango.

"Huh? You're no longer calling me by my name? Fine, since the reporters are all here, let's talk about the compensation for deliberately hitting my car. Well, it's fine as mine is not some luxurious car. However, will send you the receipt of the maintenance fee. I hope you can pay for it within a week. Anyway, it's still my favourite car."

Charlotte's expression turned pale when she heard this.

Mango wanted her to pay the maintenance fee within a week?

How was this possible?

That was an exorbitant sum of money as it would cost a few hundred thousand dollars!

"Mango, we agreed on something else previous, right? I said that I would pay you in monthly installments."

Charlotte said hurriedly.

However, Mango responded cold, "That's what you suggested, but I didn't agree to it, right?"

Previously, she didn't want Charlotte to pay anything. After all, a few hundred thousand dollars were nothing to her, but it was a large sum to Charlotte. However, it seemed that her kindness had been wasted on a b*tch like Charlotte.

Then, Charlotte burst into tears.

"Mango, I don't have that much money. You have many cars at home anyway, how about..."

"That's my car, so what does this have to do with you? It's perfectly justified for you to compensate me because you hit my car. Or do you want to go through a court trial? That's fine too. Although this matter happened in the past, I still have footage of it. Why don't we call the police now and let them handle it?"

Mango took out her phone as she spoke.

Charlotte immediately snatched away Mango's phone when she saw this.

"Mango, are you trying to make things difficult for me?"

Charlotte cried piteously.

The reporters around saw this scene and made remarks again.

"Mrs. Ye, the Ye family has a booming business. There's no need to bully a weak little girl, right?"

"Weak? Do you even know the truth behind this matter? How dare you talk recklessly here?"

Mango's face suddenly darkened when she heard what the reporter said.

On the other hand, the reporter was embarrassed, so he started stammering.

"Mrs. Ye, what's... what's with your attitude? Do you think that you're all that great because you are Nathaniel's wife? How could you act this arrogant?"

"Yes, you're right! I'm privileged because I'm Nathaniel Yes wife. What's wrong? Do you have a problem with that?"

Just then, Nathaniel happened to walk out of the building. Upon hearing the commotion, he immediately went forward and held Mango in his arms. Then, he directed his cold gaze towards the crowd and glared at all the reporters around them.

The reporter couldn't help but shiver in fear when he saw Nathaniel.

"Mr. Ye, I..."

"Charlotte Ramirez knocked into my wife's car on purpose. However, my wife was kind enough to forgive her. Well, I never expected that she would take advantage of my wife's kindness and come here to create more problems for us. What's up? Should we be blamed on this just because we're rich and influential? Should we be bullied and slandered by the poor if we have money? Does that mean that anyone can distort the truth and trick others by pretending to be weak in front of the media? How can a journalist blindly report on what they witness on the surface instead of seeking the truth behind it?"

The reporter was embarrassed and humiliated upon hearing Nathaniel's series of questions.

Meanwhile, Mango was blown away by Nathaniel's charismatic presence.

Nathaniel looked around and noticed that Charlotte was attempting to sneak away. Upon seeing this, he quickly said, "Catch her and send her to the police station. How dare she bully my wife!"

Charlotte flinched when she heard Nathaniel's orders.

Then, she burst out in tears again. However, Mango was already immune to her tactics.

Charlotte had purposely waited in front of Nathaniel's company so that she could stop Mango. Furthermore, she had called the reporters here to stir up more trouble for her. But, why?

Suddenly, Mango was instantly relieved when she thought of something.

Fortunately, Walter did not end up with a girl like this. Otherwise, things would be even more troublesome.

When Charlotte saw that Nathaniel's bodyguards had arrived, she quickly sought help from the reporters.

"Hey! You guys can't let them handle it this way."

But the reporters didn't dare to do anything that would go against Nathaniel's orders.

Charlotte glared fiercely at Mango as the bodyguards took her away. The amount of hatred in her eyes left Mango speechless.

She didn't even know how on earth she had offended this woman.

Then, Nathaniel held Mango in his arms and looked at the reporters in front of him. He said, "I hope you guys learned your lesson today, and we're not commenting on this issue anymore. I sincerely wish that

the media will seek the truth before they make false accusations against my wife in the future. Otherwise, you're just putting your job at stake."

He was definitely threatening the reporters by saying this.

However, none of them dared to say anything.

After that, Nathaniel escorted Mango back into the company.

Everyone in the company showed respect to Mango when they saw her because they knew that Nathaniel was obsessed with his wife. Therefore, no one would dare to offend him at this point.

Then, the company staff greeted Mango respectfully as she walked through the corridor.

Upon entering the office, Nathaniel immediately locked the door. However, Mango frowned slightly when she saw this.

What was this man doing?

Could he even do the deed now?
