The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1236

"Stop crying!"

Nathaniel was feeling uneasy as well. Though he was frustrated, he was distressed over Mango's tears and it was incomparable with any of his feelings.

He let out a sigh and stepped forward to hug Mango. However, he was flung away by Mango the next moment.

She had initially wished to throw him over her shoulder, but Nathaniel was skilled indeed that he landed safely in mid air when she threw him away.

"Mango!"

He called out her name helplessly, with a distressed look in his eyes.

However, Mango barely restrained her emotions.

"Don't call my name! I thought you despise me for taking the liberty, didn't you think that I shouldn't have abandoned you after knocking you out? Yeah, I admit that I'm being pretentious. I clearly know that you may do better than me when you came forward with the situation. Perhaps you're more deterrent and crisp than I am, but I am still pretentious not to let you get involved in hurting you family. I still hope that there are some things that I can do for you as you're inconvenient to intervene in it. Well, I didn't expect that Sisella would be so frantic that she could even stab her nephew, and she would even kill me! It's my fault for being insensible, sentimental, and also selfcentered. I admit that I'm wrong, okay? Whether you want to punish me, scold me or even get mad at me, I accept it, but you can't deprive my right as a mother!"

Mango stood up from the ground and used the back of her hand to wiped away the tears on her face. However, she was getting more upset and aggrieved as she wiped it off. In the end, she was not bothered to care about it and simply let the tears flow freely.

Nathaniel knew that his previous motions and words had hurt Mango. Honestly speaking, he did not feel good about it though.

He was afraid that he could not control his emotions and would hurt Mango, thus he pushed her out of the operating room.

Ever since he was infested by the Golden Lancehead Venom, he had known better than anyone else that he had became short-tempered. He didn't know if he could control his violence as hurting Mango was something he would never wish to do in his entire life.

However, will his explanation matter?

Useless!

Right before that, it was an undeniable fact that he had grabbed Mango's arm crudely and pushed her out of the operating room. "Mango, I..."

"Stay away from me!"

Mango hurriedly growled at Nathaniel as she caught sight of him lifting his feet.

Her tears were like countless knives stabbing repeatedly at Nathaniel's heart which caused him to be even more irritated.

However, he couldn't lose his temper. Mango was very upset, he had to hold it in!

Nathaniel was trying hard to forbear his temper, but he couldn't help it. It seemed that there was an invisible bug biting his heart, and the pain in his body was getting even more stronger. He clenched his fist and whispered, "I'm going out to get some water, try to cool off yourself first."

Then, Nathaniel left without looking back after finishing his remarks.

Looking at his resolute figure, Mango suddenly felt even more aggrieved.

He left, just like that.

He was still blaming himself, wasn't he?

Mango was so in pain, she sat on a bench at the corridor and bit her lower lip tightly, she couldn't help but feel guilty.

Suddenly, Walter's phone call came in.

Mango told herself to restraint her emotions, otherwise Walter would be worried. However after she answered the call, Mango immediately felt aggrieved upon hearing Walter's voice.

"Walter..."

"What's wrong? Are you crying? Did Nathaniel bully you?"

Walter abruptly raised his voice.

However, Mango quickly replied, "No, it's Zion. He was stabbed by Sisella and got injured. He's currently receiving treatment though. Walter, I'm nervous, Zion is such a sensible child since he was a kid. If anything happens to him this time, I..."

All sorts of grievances were at the tip of her tongue. However, when she heard Walter confronted if Nathaniel had bullied her, Mango didn't mention it eventually.

After all, Nathaniel was still her beloved person. Even if he had given her grievance, she would not allow others to say something bad about him.

Mango's remarks made Walter uttered with distressed, "Do you want me to send someone over? Mango, I can't go anywhere now though, Deborah is pregnant."

His remarks caused Mango abruptly paused for a moment.

Pregnant?

Was Deborah pregnant?!

It was something that none of them wished to see it happened.

Walter had suffered some physical illness while Deborah was conceiving a baby at the moment. Apparently, it was a distressing news.

The baby absolutely could not be delivered.

However, Deborah was deeply in love with Walter.

Mango could understand Walter's mood at the moment, he was probably feeling uneasy upon giving her a call.

Carter had just passed away not long ago and Walter didn't have much family members left. Yet his baby who was the continuation of his bloodline was not even given a chance to be born and taking look at the world. As a husband and a father, Walter was probably breaking down at the moment.

However, he couldn't break down just yet.

Deborah needed him at the moment!

He could only endure the pain and gave a call to

Mango, how could Mango make Walter feel sorry for her problems?

"Walter, what did Deborah thought?"

Mango was a woman, hence she could understand the pain and heartache of a woman.

Walter said with grief, "Deborah knows that the baby can't be delivered. We've already contacted the doctor, but Genevieve is going to give birth soon, so she may not be able to conduct the operation. I'm worried for other surgeons to do so, after all, Deborah is still so young, and I..."

"Let me give a call to Emberly, her surgery skills are internationally recognized. Although gynecology isn't her strength, she may still able to do it for Deborah." Mango's utterances made Walter felt grateful.

"Thank you, Mango. I know that both Nathaniel and you are busy with other things now. Hence, I only called you out of necessity. Zion is injured after all, I..." "Walter, don't mention that as we're a family. I do hope that Deborah is able to get well soon. If Emberly can offer her help, I can be rest assured." "Thank you."

After that, Walter hung up the call.

Mango did not afford to detain any time and quickly called Emberly. After telling her about Walter's request, she readily agreed.

After all that, Mango had calmed down her emotions.

She was no longer feeling aggrieved, it seemed that she had repeated the same mistake again at her second thought.

She could still remember that the consequences of knocking out Nathaniel before she took action alone didn't seem to be optimal. Moreover, she did say that she would not act alone if anything happens in future, why did she do such a stupid thing again?

No wonder Nathaniel was mad.

If both their stances had swapped, would she get angry if she was left out by Nathaniel?

Mango questioned herself, thereupon the question had came up with an answer.

However, understanding was one thing. Upon thinking of Nathaniel's anger and previous actions, Mango still felt slightly gloomy.

She knew that Nathaniel's temperament had changed quite a lot after he was affected by the Golden Lancehead Venom. Was his actions shown that he was worried his emotion would hurt her? After coming around with all those questions,

Mango sighed.

Where did the man went to buy water?

Why hadn't he came back yet?

Did he thought that she was still in rage, thus avoided her?

Mango was right.

At that time, Nathaniel was sitting on the staircase of the hospital gate. He didn't even care if his thousand dollar trousers would be stained with dirt or not.

He hadn't smoked for a long time, he simply sat on the stairway and took a cigarette out from a pack that he bought. Then, he lit one up and inhaled deeply.

What should he do?

Even he hated himself for being so rampage.

Had he frightened Mango?

She must be freaking out.

During the past, he had not even raised his voice to her. But today, he had thrown her out of the operating room in a rough manner.

Nathaniel felt shivers down his spine.

He had nearly strike the blow at Mango!

How could he do so?

Mango was the apple in his eyes, how could he lost control of himself and wanted to hit Mango?

What should he do?

How could he face himself in this way?

Nathaniel deeply inhaled the cigarette, he choked on it and could not stop coughing.

A spicy sensation crept from his throat to his heart which made his eyes sore and swollen, and his tears were about to gush out.

Out of the blue, he took out the dagger like crazy and he abruptly cut the artery of his wrist. The fresh red blood gushed out instantly while his eyes were filled with insanity and desperation.

If his blood was the source to nourish the Golden Lancehead Venom, was he able to flush out the venom by completely squeezing out all his blood?

Looking at his blood flowing out continuously from his wrist without a blink, he intended to figure out if there was any yellow nematodes crawling out. He recalled how Wisdom had also bled Mango when she was once being infested by the venom.

However, there were a lot of blood spilling out. Nathaniel stared straight at it but the nematode worms were nowhere to be seen.

He realized that he would probably die with his blood drained if the situation continued.

His previous insanity had been slowly restrained, and he was recovered from a trace of rationality. Nathaniel abruptly realized that he still could not die. What will happen to Mango if he died?

He came out because both of them had quarrelled. If anything happened, he was afraid that Mango would feel guilty and blame herself for the rest of her life.

Zion as well.

He was uncertain about his son's life, what would happen to the child if he died?

A trace of anger and annoyance flashed across Nathaniel's eyes.

He must find a way to get rid of the Golden Lancehead Venom but not right at the moment.

Nathaniel quickly stopped the bleeding and then walked toward the doctor's office.

"Help me stop the bleeding and patch it up."

Nathaniel's cold look instantly scared the doctor and he had to follow his order.

After patching up the wound, only then did Nathaniel go out to buy two bottles of water before returning to the door of the operating room.

From a distance, he caught sight of Mango sitting on a bench staring at the operating room and also the corridor outside. There was a sign of relief under her eyes the moment Nathaniel had appeared.

Sure enough, she was still concerned about him, she was waiting for him.

A trace of warmth flashed across Nathaniel's eyes after thinking about it.

He probably cut his hand because it hurt Mango.

No one could hurt Mango, neither could he!

Upon thinking of that, Nathaniel took the water and sat down beside her.

"Drink some water and hydrate your throat. If you still feel angry, you may continue to scold me after drinking up the water."
