The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1182

Hence, Mango's expression turned serious when she saw this.

It would be fine if only Mango and Nathaniel were in the car, but Rita was with them right now.

Thus, Mango looked upset when she thought that their enemies could target or hurt Rita. "Rita, come to me."

Mango wanted to hold Rita in her arms, or she would not be at ease. However, Rita acted innocently and began to doze off, "Mommy, I'm so sleepy... Well, I'll sleep for a while at the backseat." After that, Rita fell to the car seat and fell asleep.

On the other hand, Mango did not know why her daughter was acting this way. Then, she glanced at Nathaniel subconsciously and saw that he did not say anything. At this moment, he seemed to be very calm, so her anxiety was slowly alleviated.

Perhaps things were not as complicated as she thought.

This was how Mango comforted herself.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel sped up when the car at the back followed them closely. However, Rita slept like a log, and they could even hear her snores.

At the same time, Mango saw that Rita did not care about it anymore. Therefore, she did not worry about it anymore and leaned against the car seat. Then, she decided to close her eyes to take a rest.

It was the new year, but Mango never managed to rest well after she had found out what happened between Barack and Magnolia.

On the other hand, Nathaniel still could not shake the car behind them off. Obviously, he had underestimated the person who had been following them.

When Nathaniel saw that they were nearby Hans family, he drove into the entrance without any hesitation.

At this time, the butler was slightly startled when he saw Nathaniel's car, but he quickly opened the door for him.

"Mr. Ye!"

Then, Nathaniel drove in straightaway before the butler could finish his words. At that moment, the butler couldn't help but step back due to shock. However, Nathaniel also found out that the car did not follow them anymore.

Well, they were safe for now.

When Mango opened her eyes, she realized that they had arrived at the Hans family, and her expression changed slightly.

The Hans family's villa was the last place she wanted to be right now.

Then, she shot Nathaniel an inquisitive glance, but she found that he was staring at Rita, who was sleeping in the backseat. Right now, he seemed to be in deep thought. "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. Let's go in and take a rest first."

This time, Nathaniel did not answer Mango. Instead, he parked the car before he got out of it to pick Rita up.

The temperature was cold now, so Nathaniel was afraid that Rita would be freezing. Therefore, he took off his coat and wrapped it around his daughter.

Although Mango was judging him, she could not say anything because they were currently in a critical situation. Thus, she also got out of the car.

Meanwhile, Terrance was a little surprised when his butler said that Mango and Nathaniel had arrived.

He was astonished because he didn't expect that Mango would come back. This was because she had left with an annoyed expression on her face. However, he still ordered the butler to brew some tea and prepare some food for them quickly.

On the other hand, Nathaniel carried Rita, who looked exhausted, into the living room while she was still sleeping soundly in his arms.

"Terrance, I'll take Rita to the room and sleep for a while."

"Sure thing."

Meanwhile, Terrance had also noticed that Rita looked worn out. Although he didn't know what was going on, he still asked one of the maids to clean the room.

Mango came in later, and she paused for a moment, but she did not say anything when she saw Terrance. However, she sat down on the sofa and took a bite of the snacks prepared by the butler.

Meanwhile, Mango ate non-stop. She couldn't stop eating as perhaps she was hungry, or she really liked these snacks.

thus, Terrance quickly gestured the butler to prepare more snacks upon seeing that Mango liked it very much. However, he heard Mango say, "It's fine, Terrance. After all, I'll get tired of these snacks if I eat too much of them."

Terrance was quite embarrassed as he could tell that there was an underlying message in her

words.

"Hmm... well, have a drink then."

At this moment, Terrance felt awkward, just like the first time he had met her.

In fact, this really had nothing to do with him as they were in this situation because of Barack. However, why did he always feel sorry for Mango?

However, Terrance did not know how to resolve this. Meanwhile, after eating some snacks and drinking some hot water, Mango felt that her body became more energetic, so she was in a better mood. Urgh! It was a new year, so how could she be so unlucky?

Mango cursed silently. However, she was stunned for a moment when she saw Terrance was being cautious. Therefore, she felt awkward, so she blurted, "Terrance, are you going to be single for the rest of your life? I think you should start a family for the sake of the Hans family, you know?"

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

Terrance was a little confused by her question. Why did Mango suddenly bring up the issue of his marital status?

Wasn't Mango angry with him?

Suddenly, Mango recalled something while

Terrance was still shocked.

What the f*ck!

If her guess was correct, Barack would be the king of Angolla, and Lebanon would be her cousin!

Mango was surprised and astonished at the same time when she thought of this. However, she did not dislike it that much.

Anyway, Lebanon and Mango would not be separated for the rest of their lives because they were related by blood. However, Magnolia was...

Then, Mango furrowed her brows, and a displeased gaze flashed through her eyes when she thought about Magnolia.

On the other hand, Terrance did not know what Mango was thinking about. However, he felt that she was a little angry when he saw her expression. Then, he said hurriedly, "Well, do you want me to go on a date? To be honest, I don't have any plans recently, and I think there's no need rush things..."

"What do you mean by that? Terrance, how old are you now, huh? If you don't think about it now, you'll become an old man, and who will marry you then? Besides, it's difficult to have children when you're old. I think you really need to be responsible for the Hans family's future generation."

Terrance's mouth twitched when he heard

Mango's words.

Was she really his niece?

Why was she acting like his mother and forcing him to marry someone?

"Ahem!"

After that, Terrance harrumphed with resentment and said, "I think you need to tell this to Mateo, not me. He's older than me, anyway."

"Hmm, that's true! Well, what has he been up to lately?"

Mango asked indifferently, but there were still mixed emotions in her eyes.

After all, Mateo had taken over Morgan's job. Now, someone was eavesdropping on Esther's family, and people were following the Ye family around. Mango did now know whether this issue was related to Mateo, so she could only try to pry some information out of Terrance.

All of a sudden, Mango felt that it was exhausting to be so cautious around her family members.

On the other hand, Terrance did not expect Mango to change the topic so quickly. However, he replied immediately, "Mateo seems to have gone abroad for a mission recently. Well, he left after paying to visit Brantley during the new year."

"What? Did Mateo go abroad?"

Mango was very surprised to hear what Terrance had said."

"Yeah, everything in the military region must be kept private and confidential. Urgh! I shouldn't have told you that too."

Then, Mango understood what Terrance was trying to tell her.

Indeed, he should not tell anyone about this. Otherwise, someone could easily threaten his safety! However, he was obviously trying to curry favor with her. Was he doing it for Magnolia?

Thus, Mango felt a little uncomfortable when she thought of this possibility.

Magnolia was a complicated and manipulative woman. Even though she was Mango's aunt, Mango didn't want Terrance or the Hans family to have anything to do with her.

Hence, Mango felt upset when she thought about this.

"Where did Mateo go?"

"Hmm... I don't know. He didn't tell me anything."

Terrance was not lying. After all, he had already retired from the military service. Thus, according to the non-disclosure agreement he had signed, there were many things that he could not know. Therefore, he didn't ask Mateo anything either.

Mango knew about this as well. Then, she glanced at Terrance and said, "Mateo has a special position in the military, so it isn't easy for him to find someone suitable for him. Well, Terrance, now the responsibility falls onto your shoulders, so you need to look for a mistress for the Hans family. Otherwise, it's going to be quiet here."

Well, Terrance understood what Mango was hinting at. Hah! She felt lonely because there was no one here to talk to her.

Then, Terrance asked quickly, "What kind of woman would you like me to choose?"

Suddenly, Mango froze when he heard his question.

"Terrance, why do you need to ask me? You should just find someone you like."

"No, if you don't like the person, why should I marry her?"

At this moment, Mango had mixed emotions when she heard his response.

"Please, Terrance! Don't treat me so well!"

Besides, what did his marriage have to do with her? After all, his wife was the one who would accompany him for the rest of his life!

However, Mango was stunned momentarily when she saw that Terrance was expecting an answer from her.

"Well... it's up to you, really! For now, I'm planning to go on a trip with Nathan."

Initially, she did not plan to tell Terrance about it. After all, Mango felt that Terrance was still hiding the reason for Magnolia's return. However, at this moment, she could not bear to see Terrance in pain. No matter what, Terrance was still her relative.

When Terrance heard that Mango and Nathaniel were about to leave, he was stunned, but he did not object to it anyhow.

"It's good to go out and travel once in a while with the children so that you can be closer with your family. What's more, you and Nathan never travelled together properly since you guys got married. Well, do you need more money? Mateo and I have discussed transferring some of the Hans family's properties to your name. Hmm, when do you think you will..."

"No, Terrance! I have enough money!"

Mango understood the reason behind Terrance's behaviour, so she quickly rejected him.

It was true that she was the descendant of the Hans family, but she was not the only child left.

After all, Mateo would get married and have his children one day. Therefore, it was not right for her to take over over the Hans family's properties.

Besides, Nathaniel was someone with deep pockets, and there was no need for her to fight over her other relatives for family properties.

However, Terrance was very determined on this matter.

"I know you don't need money, but the Hans family will always be your support. You need to have some assets on your own! Don't rely on your husband so that you won't be bullied in the future. If Nathaniel treats you badly in the future, you can come back without thinking too much. So, Mateo and I will decide this for you."

When Mango heard how sincere Terrance sounded, her heart was instantly filled with warmth. Thus, the dissatisfaction that she experienced just now was totally gone.

Terrance treated her so well, and she felt that he would not harm her. Therefore, she chose to forgive him for not telling her about Magnolia.

However, Mango asked curiously.

"Terrance, what is Barack like?"
