The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1158

"What did you say just now? Where's my father?"

Deborah could never have imagined that her father would disappear on the day of her marriage.

However, Nancy looked extremely anxious right now.

"I have no idea. Mr. Song will be here soon. I've been looking for Mr. Grey everywhere, but no one answered the phone. Oh, no, maybe something happened to him!"

Deborah stood up immediately upon hearing Nancy's words. Then, she lifted the hem of her dress and ran outside.

"Hey, Miss Grey! You're the bride, so you can't go out now."

The makeup artist yelled behind her.

However, Deborah turned a deaf ear to the makeup artist as she could only think about her father.

Where would her father goat this time?

Today was her wedding! Surely, her father couldn't be far away, but why couldn't she get through his phone?

A series of questions were swimming in her mind right now.

Suddenly, her cell phone started right.

However, Deborah had a bad feeling about this.

Then, she took out her mobile phone and noticed that an unknown number was calling her.

Deborah hesitated for a moment before she swiped the answer button.

"Hello? Who are you?"

"If you want your father to be safe, you'll have to take the chance to kill Mango today."

The voice was different as the person on the other line had used a voice changer.

After hearing this, Deborah's heart was instantly hanging by a thread.

"Who the hell are you? Today is my wedding. Let my father go!"

"As long as you promise to kill Mango today when you have the chance, I'll let your father go."

The other party said these words firmly.

Meanwhile, Deborah was about to break down emotionally.

"What are you talking about? Today is my wedding, so I don't want any blood to be spilt! Furthermore, Mango is my sister-in-law, so how could I possibly hurt her? If I do that, how could my wedding go on?" "Haha! I don't give a sh*t about that. You can decide whether you are going to choose your husband or your father. Of course, I won't be so heartless to your father from coming to your wedding. He is in the cellar, so you can go get him, but I've poisoned him. If you fail to kill Mango today, he will die. Deborah, think about it. One of them is your father who raised you with great effort since you were a child, and the other one is a woman that isn't close with you. You should know who is more important."

The other party ended the call after saying that.

Right now, Deborah was freaking out!

"Miss Grey, you should go back first. Mr. Song will be here anytime soon. I'll go get him."

Meanwhile, Nancy managed to catch up with Deborah, so she stopped the latter from running out hastily.

However, Deborah looked at her and whispered, "Nancy, how many years have you worked for us?"

Nancy was a bit stunned by the question, but she quickly replied, "Almost twenty years."

"Ah, twenty years. You're almost like a mother to me. I remember that my mother passed away when I was three. At that time, you took care of me all the time, didn't you?"

Deborah looked at Nancy with tears in her eyes as she said this.

"Yes, Miss Grey. Why did you suddenly bring this up?"

Nancy couldn't help but feel a little upset when she saw Deborah's expression.

Deborah smiled, but there were still tears in her eyes.

"Yes, why am I telling you this? Perhaps I was too excited because it's my wedding today. Others have their mothers with them when they get married, but it isn't the same for me. Fortunately, I have you, Nancy. Thank you for taking care of me all these years!"

Nancy felt that Deborah was acting weirdly, but she still held the latter's hand and said, "The most important thing we have to do right now is to find Mr. Grey. What if he doesn't show up when Mr. Song is here? All the guests are here."

"My dad is in the wine cellar. Get someone to pick him up."

After Deborah finished her sentence, she lifted the hem of her skirt and walked towards the room. However, she had lost all the excitement that she had previously felt about marrying Walter.

Meanwhile, Nancy was stunned.

"The cellar? Why is he doing there? Miss Grey, how do you know he is in the cellar?"

However, Deborah didn't answer her at all.

After returning to the room, the makeup artist said reproachingly, "The groom will be here soon, but the makeup isn't done. Look at you, you are sweaty and need some touchup. By the way, have you found Mr Grey?"

"Yes, I have."

Deborah nodded and stayed silent.

When the makeup artist saw that she didn't want to say anything else, the former stopped asking and began to concentrate on her makeup.

Meanwhile, Deborah had gotten one of her cousins to be her bridesmaid.

After Walter's procession arrived, the bridesmaids blocked their way at the entrance of the villa. Then, they sang some songs in a lively manner downstairs.

Deborah had looked forward to this moment, but now, she couldn't be happy at all.

The Grey family had always been screened their visitors strictly before letting them in. However, because of her marriage, many people had come into their house recently. Thus, the other party had probably taken this opportunity to sneak in and poison her father.

She had always worried that Bernard's men would attack Mango directly in broad daylight. However, she never imagined that she would be the one stabbing Mango today. Suddenly, Deborah remembered how Zaddeus had taken care of her since she was a child.

His business was expansive, and he often went overseas. However, every time she missed him or when it was her birthday, he would rush back to keep her company. Deborah knew that her father had devoted a lot of effort and love to her.

If their roles were switched today, and if someone had poisoned her and threatened her father, he would definitely save her without hesitation.

However, what about her?

What was she thinking right now?

She was still thinking about Mango!

In fact, she was wondering what would happen to Walter after she hurt Mango. Could they even get married after that happened?

Alas! It seemed that she was really an unfilial child.

Deborah let out a bitter smile at this thought.

When Walter told his bridesmaid that he would love Deborah for the rest of his life, Deborah suddenly felt so ironic that she dared not listen to him anymore.

Walter had treated her so nicely. She had given her all to love him, and he finally accepted her love. He was willing to mary here. At this moment, would she destroy her own marriage?

Of course, Deborah didn't want to do that, but what else could she do?

Walter had prepared a lot of red packets today. If the bridesmaid did not let him pass, he would ask the best man to hand over the red packets. Before long, the bridesmaid was bombarded with so many red packets that she had to open the door and let them in.

After that, Walter entered Deborah's room impatiently.

"Honey, I'm here to get you!"

Today, Walter was in high spirits as joy and excitement filled his eyes.

Therefore, Deborah could tell that he was genuinely happy.

If nothing else had happened, she would probably be a happy bride too.

However, now...

Deborah's heart sank at this thought.

"What's the matter? Why do you look so pale? Did you not sleep well last night? It's okay! We will go back to bed once this wedding is over!"

Walter thought that Deborah looked pale and tired as she had been preparing for the wedding, so he comforted her while feeling sorry for her.

However, the nicer he was, the more upset Deborah became.

How could she bear to hurt him?

Furthermore, Mango was the family member he cared about the most.

Suddenly, Deborah started tearing up, so this startled Walter immediately.

"Hey! What's the matter? Why are you crying?"

"I'm too excited!"

Deborah tried to wipe her tears away, but the makeup artist stopped her.

"My lady, please stay still. Let me do it for you."

When the makeup artist fixed her makeup, she said in a voice that was only audible to the two of them, "Don't do anything useless. If you tell Walter about it, your father will be dead."

Deborah's eyes widened in an instant after hearing this.

Was she their enemy?

Oh, god! She didn't expect her makeup artist to work for Bernard!

Although Rainie was not familiar with the makeup artist, the latter had been styling her best friends for the past six months. Everyone had a good impression of her, so Deborah decided to employ her as the makeup artist for her wedding. However, she did not expect that this person was actually Bernard's subordinate.

"It's you? You're the one who poison..."

"Oh, Miss Grey, close your eyes, please. I can't apply the eyeshadow."

The makeup artist said loudly all of a sudden. Then a trace of cruelty flashed across her eyes as she whispered, "You'd better do what I say, or else, you may never see your father again."

"You b*tch!"

Deborah was so angry that she wanted to break the makeup artist's neck on the spot, but unfortunately, she couldn't do so.

She didn't know what they had poisoned her father with, nor did she know how he was now. Therefore, if she annoyed their enemies right now, her father would be in trouble!

At the thought of this, Deborah clenched her fists tightly. In fact, she didn't even realize that her nails had sunk into her flesh.

When Walter saw the makeup artist applying makeup on Deborah's face again, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Ooh! My wife looks so gorgeous!"

"Wow, look, the groom has a way with words. Wow! He's really good at praising his wife!"

The bridesmaid hurriedly spoke, and the crowd around them burst into laughter.

However, Walter said indifferently, "What's wrong with loving my wife? Who doesn't dote on their wives? Now there are more men than women. One should be happy if they can get married. If one doesn't hold her dear, what if someone interferes in the relationship? Urgh! I can't complain to anyone if that happens!"

The people around him roared with laughter again after hearing his words.

However, Deborah's face was stoic the whole time, and she didn't show any traces of a smile at all.

Meanwhile, Walter saw this from the corner of his eye, so he felt a little strange.

After all, Deborah seemed pretty different today.

What exactly was going on?

While he was thinking to himself, Nancy came back and gestured to Deborah from outside the door. She indicated that Zaddeus was fine. He had passed out just now, but now he was conscious and still doing well.

However, Deborah couldn't ask her about other things since there were too many people around them.

She nodded and threw a look at the makeup artist again before she said to Walter, "Hurry up and find my shoes. Then, you can finally marry me!"

After she said that, silence descended in the room.

The bridesmaid said somewhat awkwardly, "It seems that the bride can't wait to leave with the groom. Let's not be wet blankets. Hurry up! Let's go through the wedding procedures quickly then!" Then, they quickly began to help Walter to find Rainie's shoes.

At this moment, the makeup artist could no longer stay by Deborah's side as the crowd had pushed her to the corner.

Walter started to look for Deborah's shoes everywhere. Meanwhile, Deborah winked at him and looked downward at her wedding dress.

Walter was a smart guy, so he naturally knew that his wife was dropping him a hint. So he rushed to Deborah happily and said with a grin, "Let's see if the shoes are hidden here."

As he spoke, his hand reached into the hem of her dress. Then, the people around him burst into laughter again.

"Isn't he too impatient?" "Hey, Walter! You should watch your actions! There are bachelors here."

Several bachelors who came with Walter to the wedding shouted abruptly.

However, Deborah took advantage of this chance to whisper to him, "Cancel the wedding! Quick!"
