The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1186

When Terrance saw that Mango was standing outside, he was afraid that she would catch a cold from the snowstorm outside. He quickly said, "Mango, why don't you come in first? It's cold outside." Hah! Was the weather cold right now?

Well, Mango couldn't feel anything.

At this moment, Mango realized how angry she was.

Of course, she hated Magnolia that much. However, now that Magnolia was on the verge of death, Mango suddenly recalled how Queena had died in the fire.

Queena was selfless and beautiful, but she was decisive as well.

Both of them were the twins of the Xiao family, but why did they have such different personalities and lives?

Mango felt hurt at this thought.

However, when she noticed that Terrance was approaching her, she took a deep breath and opened the balcony door before walking out. "Mango..."

"Terrance, how did you know that something happened to Magnolia? Have you been watching me? Are you afraid that I'll attack her?"

Mango looked at him with a cold gaze as she asked this, and Terrance was quivered in fear.

"Mango, I wasn't watching you on purpose, and I did that so I could find out where Barack was. I never told you about what happened to Barack before this, so I sent my men to watch over Magnolia instead." "But why didn't your people protect Magnolia when her enemies attacked her?"

Terrance was slightly stunned after hearing Mango's question.

It seemed that Mango still cared about Magnolia!

If anyone saw how Mango treated Magnolia, they would have thought that she hated her. In fact, Mango thought so too. However, now that Magnolia was in danger, Mango was frustrated at what had happened.

At the thought of this, Terrance suddenly realised Mango's true feelings. Thus, he felt bad for her

"Mango, the Dark Night Empire belongs to you. Also, Magnolia is in your territory, so she is under your protection. So, how could I get in your way? Besides, I just wanted to use her to find your uncle's whereabouts. I didn't even think of interfering with your people or your plans.

When Mango heard Terrance's explanation, she knew that she was just venting her anger out on him.

He was right!

She needed to take it easy right now!

After all, this was the first time she had ever felt this way.

Why could she vent her rage and frustration to Terrance for Magnolia's sake?

This was simply absurd!

However, Mango couldn't stop thinking about those murderous thoughts as she suddenly thought of Queena.

After all, Magnolia owe Queena an apology, so Mango should hate Magnolia for this. However, she panicked when she found out that Magnolia was in danger.

Perhaps Magnolia looked similar to her mother, so she didn't want the former to die this easily?

Mango wasn't sure, but at this moment, she really wanted to see Magnolia.

"I'm sorry, Terrance. I'm in a bad mood."

"It's alright. I understand how you're feeling right now."

What else could Terrance not understand her feelings?

When he found out that Kolton had taken away his older's brother corpse for so many years, he was even angrier than Mango. Furthermore, when he knew that Barack was alive, he wanted to track the latter down desperately by following Magnolia. Therefore, he understood how Mango was feeling right now.

"Do you want to visit Magnolia in the hospital?"

Mango wanted to refuse his suggestion, but she swallowed the words that she was about to say.

"I'll go take a look at how's she doing. Nathan and Rita are still asleep, so please take care of them for me."

"Alright. I'll get someone to protect you."

After saying that, Terrance quickly went to make these arrangements.

Mango had initially wanted to reject the offer, but she changed her mind when she thought about the current situation.

After that, Mango drove all the way to the hospital and entered the ward. However, someone attacked her along the way, and she had almost gotten hurt.

However, she looked at her attacker with a murderous glint and immediately threw the latter over her shoulder.

"Bang!" The other party let out a muffled groan as they fell to the frown. Suddenly, the scent of blood wafted through Mango's nostrils.

"Magnolia?"

Mango asked coldly as she saw Magnolia all curled up on the ground. Blood was seeping out of Magnolia's wound on her chest. Wait, wasn't Magnolia supposed to be unconscious right now? However, Magnolia's wound was bleeding again as Mango had thrown her over the shoulder.

Then, Mango glanced at her coldly, and she quickly pressed down the emergency bell.

The emergency care team immediately rushed over to provide treatment, and they managed to stabilise Magnolia's condition. However, her face was pale, and she looked just like Queena. After all, her eyes looked gloomy and unfocused right now.

Magnolia was in excruciating pain, but she could also sense Mango's indifferent gaze. Hence, after the doctors and nurses left, Magnolia was not surprised to see Mango locking the door. "I'm not doing this on purpose, even though I know you won't believe me."

Magnolia opened her mouth to say this first as a bitter smile flashed across her face.

Then, Mango sat down in front of her.

Magnolia's wound looked terrible as she was seriously injured. Hence, if this was part of Magnolia's scheme, Mango couldn't help but admire how brave she was.

Meanwhile, Mango didn't know what Magnolia's plan was. However, for some reason, she believed that Magnolia was telling her.

"Why did the person want to kill you?"

"I guess he's probably afraid that I'll reveal too many of his secrets."

Magnolia smiled wryly, but she accidentally tugged at her wound, so she ended up trembling due to the pain.

On the other hand, Mango continued to look at Magnolia as the latter winced in pain before asking, "What secret are you talking about? What is the relationship between the Xiao family, the Ye Family, and the Hans family with Longford County? Also, what happened between Angolla and Longford County? What about you then? What's your relationship with Angolla? Where's Barack right now? You can choose not to answer these questions, but if you want me to treat you as one of my own, you shouldn't hide these from me. This might be your enemies' first assassination attempt, but I'm sure that it will be the last. Although my men are powerful, they might still make mistakes, so I can't guarantee your safety completely."

After all, Mango had wanted to say these words long ago, so she took the opportunity to say them out loud.

Meanwhile, Magnolia looked at Mango and hesitated.

"I won't force you to give me an answer, but I'm taking take the kids out of Ocean City for a trip today. So, you don't have many chances and time left."

In fact, if Magnolia decided to confess now, perhaps Mango still give her another chance and protect her safety. However, if Magnolia chose otherwise, Mango would not care about this matter any longer. Magnolia immediately turned pale when she heard what Mango had said.

After all, she would rather die than suffer through this despair again!

Hence, should she tell Mango the truth?

Magnolia hesitated at this thought. However, she suddenly recalled the handsome man and involuntarily clenched her fists.

Meanwhile, Mango knew that Magnolia was having a dilemma, so she did not rush her. Instead, she ordered someone to buy breakfast.

As time ticked by, Magnolia remained motionless. She narrowed her eyes, so no one could read the expression on her face.

Despite that, Mango was in no hurry. Hence, he took out her phone to browse through the news.

Therefore, the room was so silent that both of them could hear their own breaths.

Just when Mango thought that Magnolia wouldn't say anything, the latter suddenly opened her mouth. "Mango, do you miss your mother very much?"

Mango was slightly taken aback when she heard these words, but her expression turned furious.

"Hah! How dare you mention my mother? If it weren't for you, would my parents have passed away? In fact, my mother would have never lived such a pitiful life! She is your biological sister, so why didn't you tell them the truth? Urgh! How could you do this to her?"

Mango's voice trembled as she said this. At this moment, she wanted nothing more but to strangle Magnolia to death. However, she suddenly noticed that tears were dripping down from Magnolia's face to the bedsheet.

"Heh! Don't you ever think that I will forgive you and change my mind just because you're shedding some fake tears!"

Mango said harshly in reply.

However, Magnolia said in a teary right, "Let me tell you about my greatest wish! I want to reunite with my parents and sister! I went through so much to achieve this, but eventually, I didn't get to see my mother when she passed away. Alas! I thought that I would never see my loved ones in this life. However, I didn't expect Queena to appear in front of me one day! Can you imagine how shocked and touched I was at that time?"

Mango's body suddenly froze when she heard this.

"What did you say? Did my mom go over to see you? When did she do that?"

Mango had never heard of this!

How did Queena know about Magnolia's existence, and why did she even go to look for Magnolia?

Also, why hadn't her mother told her about this?

Furthermore, Queena had not told Brantley about this!

When Magnolia saw that Mango tearing up, she started crying as well.

"One year ago, she went to Angolla to find me and wanted to take me away. But at that time, I had something else to do, so I couldn't leave. Ah, that was the first time I met my sister. I knew she was having a bad time because of me, so I told her the truth about what happened last time. I thought she would hate me, scold me, and even hit me, but she didn't do that. She said that the past was the past. Besides, Dennis was already long gone, so she couldn't do anything, even though she knew the truth. After all, she could not bring bad the dead! However, she said that she wanted to reunite the family. Hence, she wanted to take Barack and me away."

"Barack? Wait, are you talking about Barack Hans?"

Magnolia had never brought up Barack before, so Mango decided to ask this again.

"Yes, Barack is one of your uncles. He followed me to Angolla as he said that he wanted to spend his remaining life with me. At that time, I was moved, but I also knew that it was impossible. After all, I had already ruined my sister's relationship! Alas! I can't bring any more trouble to the Hans family, so I refused him. Besides, I pretended to be in love with a playboy so that he would give me up! However, Barack refused to let me go!"

Magnolia couldn't help but tear up when she talked about this.

"Argh! He was persistent, but in the end, he died because of me! My enemies sent someone to kidnap Barack so that they could threaten me! If I didn't do as they said, they would only torture Barack further! I had no choice, Mango. Barack risked his life for me. Even if I was scheming against the Hans family at first, I still fell deeply in love with him eventually. Thus, I followed their orders and married the king of Angolla to save Barack. They wanted me to give birth to a prince, and so I did that. Then, they wanted me to poison the king. I did that too, but they still refused to help me. In fact, they actually tried to poison Barack as well. When I learned this, I decided to fight back because I wanted to save Barack. However, I didn't expect your mother to show up at that time. They mistook your mother for me, so took away her and poisoned her instead."

"What did you say?"

Mango sprang to her feet in surprise after hearing what Magnolia had said.

Suddenly, she remembered Queena's incurable disease.

Then, she recalled how Bettany said that Queena wasn't actually suffering from cancer.

Wait, did someone poison Queena?
