The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1176

When Nathaniel's body stiffened suddenly, Mango had already noticed it.

She knew that he had not stiffened because she had asked Magnolia on purpose but because he had thought of something else.

After all, Mango was not a fool. Therefore, she could also think of the same things as Nathaniel.

When Mango thought about it, she also fell silent.

Well, Kolton had done such a thing for Marrisa.

Marrisa was from Angolla, while Laney gave birth to Bernard, who was the son of the king of Angolla. Therefore, could she make a wild guess that everything had happened with the king's permission? If so, who was the king of Angolla?

Why did they attack the Ye Family, the Hans family, and the Xiao family?

He had been taking advantage of the fact that Magnolia and Queena were twin sisters, and he turned the Hans brothers into enemies. It was also obvious that he knew the Xiao family had lost one of their daughters.

Hence, this king was probably involved in

Magnolia's kidnapping as well.

When Mango thought about this, she was stunned.

Therefore, when she thought about the grudges of the previous family, who was the one that wanted to go against the Hans family, the Xiao family and the Ye Family?

Mango started to process the information that she had, and suddenly, a thought popped into her mind.

Nanny Zhang!

The Longford County!

She could not help but think of the destruction in Longford County.

She remembered that Nanny Zhang once said that the Hans family had participated in the destruction of the Longford County.

Therefore, Mango felt petrified when she thought about this.

"Longford County..."

Mango muttered slowly.

Nathaniel's eyes darkened a little when he heard this.

Obviously, Nathaniel had also thought of this.

He held Mango's hand tightly and said in a deep voice, "This matter is complicated. Henry is the last descendant of Longford County, but so is Bettany. Magnolia said that Bettany was injured, so we need to find and bring her back. Alas! Both of them have to be okay!

Mango's heart also sank when she heard this.

After all, Henry was her subordinate, so she did not want anything to happen to him. Furthermore, Bettany was Wisdom's teacher. Therefore, she did not want anything to happen to Bettany too. However, Bettany had been following Magnolia for so many years. Therefore, could Magnolia have influenced or deceived Bettany.

Mango did not have an answer to this, but now she felt worried.

If Bettany and Magnolia were in cahoots, the consequences of their alliance would be catastrophic.

"I'll ask Desmond to check Bettany's whereabouts then."

Mango subconsciously mentioned Desmond. However, after she finished speaking, she started to feel that something was amiss.

Desmond was now dismissed from his job and was still taking care of Haniya in the hospital.

At the thought of Haniya, Mango still felt that she was a little heartless.

"Urgh! I forgot. Haniya is still injured, and I haven't even seen her. I don't know how she is."

"I heard from Noah that the operation was successful, and the bullet did not hurt any of her vital organs. Now, she is in the ICU. If nothing happens, she'll be transferred to the general ward tomorrow." Nathaniel had been sending people to keep an eye on Haniya. He knew that Mango was worried about Haniya, but she could not relax because of everything that had happened recently. So, he had done a few things for her.

When Mango heard this, she felt touched, and she hugged Nathaniel's waist, "Thank you, Nathan. I don't know how I would've ended up without you!"

"Dear, don't be silly! You're my wife."

Nathaniel smiled lightly, and he looked at Mango with a doting gaze.

Well, Mango could not fall asleep no matter how hard she tried.

Therefore, when she saw that the snowflakes falling outside, she felt that she didn't want to stay in the Hans family's villa anymore as she was stressed.

"Can I go and see Haniya?"

Nathaniel paused when he heard what Mango had said.

"What? Do you want to go there right now?"

"Yeah, that's right."

Mango knew that she was acting stubborn right now.

Bernard wanted to kill Mango, but Magnolia told her that Bernard was under house arrest and didn't have time to kill her. She did not know if this was true, but anyhow, she had to still be careful. After all, she was undoubtedly Bernard's target, but she just wanted to see Haniya.

On the other hand, Nathaniel did not say anything else. Then, he found some clothes and asked her to change into them.

When Mango saw how supportive Nathaniel was, he hugged her sadly and said, "Nathan, we'll be fine, won't we? We won't leave any regrets like my parents."

"No, we won't. No matter what happens in my life, I only want you."

Nathaniel's voice was not loud, but it was enough for Mango to hear it clearly. Therefore, she felt touched as she understood his feelings clearly.

She leaned on Nathaniel's back, and she started tearing up a little.

"I only want you too." "What a silly girl!"

After saying that, Nathaniel patted her hand and pulled her into his arms. Then, he kissed her on the forehead and said, "Don't think too much. I'll stand by your side no matter what you want to do. So, don't worry, I allow you to be as stubborn as you want!"

"You'll spoil me too much!"

Mango replied in a coy tone.

However, Nathaniel said happily, "Well, I hope that happens. If I spoil you, other men won't even think about being with you. Hence, you can only be with me for the rest of your life." "Urgh! You are so evil!"

Although Mango said this, there was a smile at the corner of her mouth. Therefore, she looked gorgeous right now.

When they left the bedroom and walked into the living room, Terrance was also there.

Therefore, they could tell that he had been lying when he said that he wanted to rest in his bedroom. Obviously, he just didn't want to face Mango and Nathaniel.

When Terrance saw that Nathaniel and Mango were all dressed and ready to leave, he became a little anxious.

"Where are you going?"

"We're going out for a walk."

Mango said this as she looked at Terrance. She knew that even though he did not say much, he still cared about her sincerely.

She did not have t too many relatives, so she did not want to have any more conflicts or unpleasant conflicts with them.

Even though Terrance did not want to tell her the truth, she would find out about it sooner or later. Therefore, she did not have to find the truth out from Terrance.

In fact, she was content as she knew Terrance cared about her and did not have the intention to hurt her.

Mango smiled sincerely when she thought of this.

After that, she walked over and squatted in front of Terrance. Then, she pulled over a thin blanket and covered it on his legs before saying softly, "Terrance, it's cold because it's winter now. You need to keep your leg warm and sleep earlier if you don't have anything to do. There are some things that you can't change, so you shouldn't think too much. After all, the Hans family still needs you. If I can't survive in the entertainment industry one day, maybe you'll have to support me too."

Terrance could not help but feel uncomfortable and upset when he saw Mango's smile.

"I know you want to know everything now, but there are things that aren't good for you to know. So, trust me because I won't hurt you."

"I know, so I don't blame you. Go to sleep, alright? Nathan and I are going out for a walk."

"But, it's cold outside."

"Don't worry, our love will keep us warm."

Terrance was slightly taken aback when he heard Mango showing off in front of him. Then, he frowned.

"Why are you so evil? Mango, are you having fun while teasing a bachelor?"

"Yeah, so try not to be single, alright? I'm looking forward to see your wife. All the best!"

After saying that, Mango smiled and stood up before leaving the Hans family with Nathaniel.

Meanwhile, Terrance looked at them thoughtfully.

Then, the butler came out from inside and looked at the them as they left. He whispered, "Sir, you can't stop some things from happening."

"Even so, I have to stop her. I can't watch Dennis's daughter go and die in Angolla. Have you contacted Barack successfully?"

Terrance's eyes sparkled when he asked this question.

However, the butler shook his head and said, "Our people couldn't find any information about the Barack. It's been more than twenty years, and he went missing after going to Angolla once he left home. Also, all the clues seemed to have been deliberately erased."

Terrance narrowed his eyes suddenly when he heard this.

"Start investigating from Magnolia. More than twenty years ago, Barack left Angolla for Magnolia. After he sent me a letter to say that he was leaving the Hans family, there was no news from him after that. I think that Magnolia is involved in this! She's shrewd and mysterious. So, I suspect that Dennis and Barack fought because of her. I didn't know this before, but now that I know about this, I must find out about Magnolia."

"Yes, Sir."

The butler nodded in reply.

Suddenly, Terrance rubbed his temples as he felt guilty.

"Have you told Mateo about this?"

"Sir, Mateo has been in the military area recently. He has a lot of things to do, so we haven't seen him yet."

Terrance frowned when he heard what the butler had said.

Why could he not meet Mateo?

How was this possible?

Mateo had taken over Morgan's position recently. Although he would be very busy as he was promoted, he should still have time to come home for a new year gathering. Was he really busy that he could not find time for his family?

Terrance thought that it was possible.

Hence, he felt a little uneasy.

Did something happen to Mateo?

"Send someone to guard the entrance of the military region. Once Mateo comes out, ask him to come home."

"Yes, sir."

The butler then left to carry out Terrance's orders.

Meanwhile, snow was falling heavily outside, so Terrance knew that he could not sleep tonight.

After Nathaniel and Mango walked out of the Hans family's villa, a cold wind blew towards them.

Thus, Mango shivered and put her hands into Nathaniel's pocket. Then, she found Nathaniel's warm hand and grabbed it.

After that, she rested her head subconsciously on Nathaniel's shoulder.

When Nathaniel saw his wife acting like this, he laughed.

"Why do you want to come out at this time when you're this afraid of the cold?"

"I suddenly wanted to see Haniya. Argh! When she got injured, I should've gone to see her! At that time, we weren't very free as we were attending Walter's wedding. Later, you took me to the Creekside Cottage. When we came back, it was already New Year's Eve, so we didn't get to visit Haniya until now. If I were her, I would be disappointed."

Mango muttered as she felt like she was too mean.

Then, Nathaniel clicked her nose that was red as it had frozen due to the call. He said with a smile, "Haniya won't blame you for being mean now. She'll probably be grateful that you didn't show up."

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

"I'm telling the truth. Desmond is like a blockhead who insists on living like a walking dead for Marissa. However, Haniya almost lost her life for him. Do you think Desmond will still be indifferent to her? Maybe Desmond will realise his feelings because of this! So, under such circumstances, Haniya certainly doesn't want anyone to disturb

her."

Mango immediately stopped walking when she heard what Nathaniel had said.

"Huh? What should we do? Are we not going there? But, I'm worried about Haniya. So, I'll be anxious until I see her!"

When Nathaniel saw hesitant his wife was right now, he felt that she was too adorable!

"Why not? We've already come out on such a cold day. If you don't go, you won't be able to sleep, right?"

However, Mango felt that Nathaniel's words were a little suspicious.

"What? No! Are you trying to say that I want to go to her place is because I can't fall asleep, not because I care about her?"

Mango pouted as she said this. Tears were welling up in her eyes, so Nathaniel's heart started to ache again.
