The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1059

After hanging up the phone, Mango knew that Walter and Deborah would definitely live a happy life thereafter.

Walter was not a cold-hearted person. He would surely treat Deborah well now that she had almost lost her life for his lover.

Moreover, anyone would fall in love with Deborah easily considering her personality.

At that moment, Mango looked at the Grey family's house and couldn't help but smile.

Perfect!

Walter finally had a partner.

Then, Mango left the Grey family's place light-heartedly.

Meanwhile, the Hans family had also settled the issue.

The police had taken away many people, but Terrance had secretly detained one of them. He interrogated the person and he finally admitted that he was Bernard's subordinate. Mango went silent after hearing this news.

It was no wonder that Lawrence was so emboldened as it turned out that he was acquainted with Bernard.

Mango also came to know from Terrance that Laney had died miserably. Lebanon tortured her three days before her last breath.

Bernard must have gone mad.

However, Mango didn't understand why did Bernard treat his aunt so well since he was just her nephew, although he had once lived a prosperous life because of Laney.

Besides, Laney stirred up the trouble herself, so how did this matter have something to do with Mango?

Bernard should have attacked Lebanon if he wanted to take revenge, but why did he want to kill Mango so desperately instead?

Mango couldn't figure this out, so she stopped thinking about it.

Ocean City was in turmoil this night as many people were frightened by the incident and they were sleepless. Also, many people were exhausted after rushing back and forth because of this. They were bound to work through the night.

Terrance invited Mango to spend the night in the Hans family's place, but Mango had rejected.

"Terrance, I need to go back and have a look as I don't know what happened to Desmond. The servants at my house got off work early, while Lucy took Rita to her house and I'll have to take her home. However, I'll need your help, Terrance."

"Go ahead."

"Andrea arrived at Ocean City in advance and I want to know how's Dylan doing. If possible, I hope that you can save Dylan and bring him back."

Dylan was Nathaniel's good friend and Mango had to protect him for Nathaniel.

Then, Terrance said in a low voice, "Dylan has arrived at Ocean City. He's not injured, but he's unconscious as Andrea drugged him. In fact, Andrea bought two tickets and she came to Ocean City with Dylan, but the flight timings were different. She didn't take the flight that Dylan took and she drugged Dylan's drink in the lounge before coming back by herself. Based on her action, she's still quite good to Dylan." At that moment, Mango paused for a moment.

She didn't know what Andrea did outside the country these days, but she could tell from this incident that Andrea had slight feelings for Dylan.

Perhaps Andrea wasn't completely heartless after all.

Then, Mango nodded.

She bid Terrance goodbye before going back to the Ye's Mansion, but she saw Desmond walking out anxiously and he bumped into her. "Where are you going?"

Mango heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Desmond was unharmed.

However, Desmond was really nervous and guilty.

"Sorry, Mrs. Ye, I fell into a trap... Are you all right?"

"What trap? What's going on? Tell me!"

Just as Mango finished speaking, Rita ran out from the house.

"Mommy!"

She ran into Mango's arms directly without slowing down her speed.

Mango could barely catch hold of her.

"My dear, why are you here?"

Rita hugged Mango and said fearfully, "Mommy, Granny Lucy is injured."

"What's going on?"

At that instant, Mango became nervous.

Then, Desmond whispered, "I received a phone call from Rita and she said that she was really afraid as there were many people with guns outside of Lucy's house. I knew that it's very likely that you would be in danger if I rushed there, but I couldn't let Rita to be harmed. I remembered instructing some bodyguards to protect Rita, but I couldn't get in touch with any of them. So, I left some men here before rushing to Lucy's house. Lucy is injured as she attempted to protect Rita, but I have already sent her to the hospital."

Mango had not experienced the incident personally, but she could imagine what had happened.

The situation was really intense at her place, let alone at Lucy's house, so it was fortunate that Desmond went to them.

At that moment, Mango felt really scared.

She should have sent Rita to the Hans family's house.

"Thank you, Desmond."

"Mrs. Ye, I deserve a punishment as I left the Yes Mansion without your permission..."

Desmond was really guilty deep down.

However, Mango patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's none of your faults and you've done the right thing. If the children and I are in danger at the same time, you should always protect them regardless of the situation. I'm an adult and I have the ability to protect myself, but my kids don't. Therefore, you made the right choice this time. I'll be really regretful and never be able to make up for it in my entire life if anything happens to Rita, so thank you for saving her."

"Mrs. Ye, I..."

"Alright, where's your phone?"

"I dropped it during the fight and I can't find it back."

Desmond was very depressed.

"I'll get a new one for you again."

Then, Mango hugged Rita and asked in a soft voice, "You must be really scared, aren't you?"

"Mm... mommy, can I sleep with you tonight?"

Rita hugged Mango tightly while her entire body was trembling.

Mango felt really sad as she carried Rita into the house.

Their house was not ruined, but Mango didn't want to spend the night here.

What if there were still some men who escaped their arrest?

Bernard was an unpredictable person and it seemed as if he had never given up his idea of killing Mango.

Suddenly, Mango thought of something.

"Desmond, go and check how Sisi and Newell are doing."

"Alright."

Immediately, Desmond went to do as Mango said.

It didn't take long before Desmond sent Mango a message.

"Sisi is fine, while Newell has recovered from his addiction. Sisi already knew that Newell was drugged and it's Laney who did it. So, she was so worked up that she cried and fainted several times. Nevertheless, Newell was beside her all this while and she's mentally stable now. Bernard's men did not go to attack Sisi and Newell."

Mango let out a sigh of relief after hearing Desmond's words.

"Send more bodyguards to protect them. It's best to be careful even though Bernard might probably not harm them."

"Alright."

Later, Mango felt really exhausted after the busy night. Her back injury had scabbed over, but it had not completely recovered. Now, the pain was unbearable after the tiring night, but Rita was frightened and she held Mango tightly.

So, Mango had no choice but to bring Rita to the Hans family's house.

Terrance was surprised to see Mango return to their place with Rita. "You're staying here tonight?" "Yeah, I feel more secured to spend the night

here."

Then, Mango went to her room and brought Rita into the bathroom.

They took a bath hastily before Mango finally came out with Rita in her arms.

Rita was very tired, but she didn't dare to sleep. Nevertheless, she fell asleep eventually as Mango comforted her.

Mango covered her with the quilt before walking out quietly.

"Terrance..."

"Are you really going to Swovenia?"

Terrance was somewhat worried.

His niece was becoming more like his brother.

He saw Mango's fearless expression from the surveillance camera when she was at the entrance of the Ye's Mansion. It was as if he had seen Mateo.

Mateo would probably be very pleased if he was still alive.

At that moment, Terrance's eyes were filled with tears.

Mango knew that Terrance was concerned about her, but she was really worried about Nathaniel's situation.

She did not receive any news from Hikasa Manual at Nakasara, but she had to make sure that Nathaniel wouldn't be in danger before Henry and Thomas brought the manual back. Besides, both her sons were there too.

"Terrance, Nathaniel is the love of my life as you know..."

"He's so lucky."

Terrance said in a rather strange tone.

Then, Mango smiled as she held Terrance's hand and said, "Terrance, I'll leave Rita to you before I take off."

"Don't worry. You must come back with Nathaniel safely and unscathed, okay? Otherwise, I will do everything I can with the Hans family's power and destroy that bunch of b*stards in Swovenia."

At that moment, Terrance's words touched Mango.

"Alright... By the way, there's something else that I need your help with."

"What is it? You don't have to be so polite as we're a family..."

In fact, Terrance was very sad.

Mango went to Brantley's place very often recently, so he wondered if she had forgotten that she was the daughter of the Hans family. However, Mango didn't know what Terrance was thinking as she said softly, "Bernard is mad and he even colluded with Lawrence to end my life. I've thought about it, but I don't think that I have ever offended him. He might have a grudge against me because of what happened to Laney, but that was actually her own fault. In fact, Lebanon has tortured Laney for three days before he killed her, so Bernard should have taken revenge on Lebanon instead, yet he's so desperate to put me to death. I'm really puzzled because of this. However, Lebanon must be suffering a lot too since Bernard is treating me like this. I heard from Nathan that Lebanon doesn't have many men within the country to protect himself. Now that his identity is exposed, Bernard would surely attack Lebanon after colluding with Lexis. Terrance, haven't you reported Bernard's crimes to the police? Why is he still living carefreely and not getting arrested yet?"

Then, Terrance sighed after hearing Mango's doubts and said, "Bernard is currently in F Country and he's under Lexis's protection, so even if we have solid evidence of his crime, we won't be able to arrest him there unless he comes to our country. If not, it might affect our relationship with F Country. Also, the situation in Angolla is really complicated and they have a say in many global affairs, so even the United Nations have to show respect to them... Overall, it's really difficult for us to settle this issue."

Then, Mango's brows furrowed slightly when she heard this.

"Can't you lure Bernard into our country?"

"He's not a fool, so he would surely not return to the country and fall into our trap now that he's being protected at the F Country. What do you want me to do?"

Mango paused for a moment before shaking her head.

"Forget it then."

She wanted to ask Terrance to help Lebanon as he might be her aunt's son after all. However, she knew that the Hans family might get into an international dispute after hearing Terrance's words, so she could only pray that Lebanon would be safe.

Later, Mango and Terrance discussed a few other things before she went to sleep with Rita.

That night, she had a good sleep.

When Mango woke up the next morning, Rita was still sleeping.

She gently caressed Rita's tender little face, but she felt a little worried at the thought of Wisdom and Zion who were not home.

It was right at this moment someone knocked on the door.
