The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1250

However, Mango shook her head.

"Master Mo is your friend. Although he may be somewhat reticent to you in his position, I believe that he won't lie to you regarding this matter. However, I suddenly felt that there might be a lot of things that we don't understand in between. Perhaps, these are the main factors!"

Mango spoke in a matter-of-fact manner.

She didn't know much about Carlson and she had never seen him before. She had only heard about his name several times, so she really had no idea about his personality. However, Nathaniel managed to look for Carlson at the most vulnerable time and told him about his circumstance. It showed that Carlson was a trustworthy person to Nathaniel.

The person whom Nathaniel trusted would definitely be reliable enough.

Mango was showing support and protection towards Nathaniel.

Nathaniel tightly frowned but he didn't say anything either.

Both of them had kept a moment of silence before Nathaniel broke the silence.

"Mango, I want to go to Longford County again. Maybe we can get the answers for those incidents."

"Alright."

Mango had predicted that they would return to the place again. Hence, there was no reason for her to reject his offer. After all, Rita had to go to Longford County to carry out her mission.

"Well, Zion's body condition doesn't seem good. Guess we shouldn't bring him along this time. He needs to recuperate now. I don't feel at ease wherever he goes, let alone traveling with us. Why don't we leave him at the headquarters of the Baxter Alliance? With so many people looking after him, I think it should be slightly safer with the presence of Michael too."

Mango was a mother after all, thus she was worried about her child.

Nathaniel nodded and said, "It's good for Zion to stay here. We need him to cooperate with Silver Fox to investigate the incident back then and the whereabouts of Barack now. According to Master Mo, Barack is very likely to be in Angolla now. We require both Zion and Silver Fox to verify its truth using their skill. After all, Angolla is currently heavily guarded and we can't enter it." Mango nodded.

"We should make Zion get more rest. After all, he was injured and the stab almost hurt his heart."

Mango was furious whenever she mentioned about it. How she wish she could give Sisella a few more slaps.

"By the way, has Newell woken up yet?"

"Not yet. The doctor has said that Newell didn't possess a strong survival will."

Nathaniel let out a sigh as he could understand Newell.

The stronger his feelings for Sisella, the more hurt he was.

Newell had been living for Sisella ever since he was a kid. He had even set aside his grudge towards the Ye family for her. He had thought of spending the rest of his life with her and he was even willing to strive hard to provide a better living for Sisella. However, all his efforts had turned out to be one-sided.

The woman who was showered with his love and care all this time had stabbed his heart mercilessly with a knife. Nobody would have been able to endure the pain and hurt from this.

Mango had also let out a sigh and said, "One can get hurt easily when they have passionately fallen in love." "Love has always been dangerous. It depends on whether both parties involved can master the knack. Same goes to me. Didn't I hurt both of us at the same time five years ago?"

There was a lingering fear in Nathaniel whenever he thought about the incident again. Even with Mango staying by his side and he could see her after he woke up every day, the fire would probably become the deepest and most painful wound in Nathaniel's heart.

Looking at the guilt and sorrow in Nathaniel's eyes, Mango quickly stepped forward and held his hand. She said softly, "It's all over."

"You tend to comfort me in this way, but I know it's not over for me. You wouldn't end up in the way you're now if it wasn't my fault. You will be in good health, and our children wouldn't have missed out on their five years to be spent together with their father. When I woke up in the middle of the night sometimes, I would feel thankful to God for sending the three of you back to me. I even felt that I wouldn't hesitate to give up all my prosperity in exchange for all your safety. Fortunately, you're still here and we can still talk everything out. Mango, I'm truly afraid of losing you. Don't ever try to struggle with the difficulties on your own regardless of what happens in the future, get it?"

All in all, Nathaniel came back to the previous topic again.

Mango knew that he couldn't forget about how she made him faint and faced Sisella herself. She sighed and said, "Alright, I was at fault with Sisella's issue. I promise I won't even do it again." "Sure. If you do that ever again, God will punish me then."

Just as Nathaniel finished speaking, Mango stretched her hand to cover Nathaniel's mouth. She uttered in rage, "Stop spouting the nonsense." "I know that you value me more than yourself. In order to prevent you from doing silly things again, I would rather take myself as a bet. Only then will you be less reckless."

The intense look from Nathaniel made it hard for Mango to look at him.

She turned her head away instantly, but tears welled up in her eyes.

What else could she say when she had a man who loved her deeply?

Both of them cuddled together for some period of time before Nathaniel asked his men to prepare a private plane to take them to the Longford County again.

Both Nathaniel and Mango still had many things to do before they left the place.

Meanwhile, Mango came to Zion's room.

The little ones were looking very harmonious in their conversations.

Rita immediately put on a smiley face upon seeing Mango entering the room.

"Mommy, are you done being intimate with dad?"

Mango was somewhat appalled by her remarks.

"Rita, from where have you learnt the word 'intimate'?"

"Ah? Shouldn't I use it this way? Well, I learnt it drama series."

Rita blinked her big eyes with a puzzled and innocent expression.

Zion looked at Mango speechlessly and uttered, "Rita has been watching family- ethnics drama recently."

"What drama?"

Mango was shocked.

It was indeed crazy for a five-year-old to watch family drama.

Zion nodded his head helplessly and said, "Well, a family drama including a variety of characters which she watched at Uncle Eaves's house. She didn't manage to finish watching the episodes. Hence, she watches them with a tablet all day long after she returned home."

Rita quickly nodded and said, "Yeah, it's a good drama. Aunt Eaves watches them every day."

Mango was slightly speechless.

"Shouldn't you watch cartoons instead?"

"Oh, those series aren't fun at all."

Rita spoke like a young adult.

Mango was indeed speechless over her daughter's option. She could only change the topic and say in hurry, "Your daddy and I are getting ready to depart from here, thus both Wisdom and you should pack up your things."

"Where are we going?"

Rita asked subconsciously.

However, Mango did not reply to her inquiry. Instead, she said with a smile, "You don't have to care where we are gonna go. Don't you like to travel? Shall we fulfill your wish this time?"

"Sounds great! Well, what about Zion?"

Zion also stared at Mango. He noticed that his mommy should have something to tell him, thus he told both Rita and Wisdom, "Wisdom, Rita, get yourself clean up first. Mommy will make the arrangements." "Okay Zion, have a good rest."

There was a hint of excitement in Rita's eyes.

She would arrive at Longford County in a short time as soon as she managed to leave the place. Therefore, the task given to her by Bjorn could be competed as soon as possible.

Only Zion and Mago were left in the room after the two kids exited the room. Zion said gloomily, "Mommy, aren't both you and daddy plan on bringing me along with you guys?" Mango was feeling uneasy upon looking at her son's upset expression.

"I'm sorry, Zion. Both daddy and mommy have something to do while your body condition doesn't allow you to travel long journey."

"I understand that, you don't have to apologize to me. Mommy, do you have something to tell me?"

Although Zion was somewhat upset that he couldn't hang out with daddy and mommy, he knew his body condition well. Both his daddy and mommy would be worried about him if his wound was infected. There would be plenty of opportunities for him to travel in future. After all, he would prefer to obey his parents' words as it was also his own body.

Mango felt sorry for Zion upon seeing her son being so sensible.

She sat beside Zion and hold his tiny hands with hers. Then, she told him, "Zion, you've always been so sensible. Mommy felt distressed for you. Mommy will prefer you to act coquettishly and cuddle in my arms or get angry with me or even cry in front of me. Your composed manner will make you look precocious and make me feel sorry for you as well."

Zion was stunned for a moment, then he said with a smile, "Mommy, will daddy and you agree to tag me along with you if i cry in front of you or get mad at you?"

"Nope, we can't. Your body condition doesn't it."

Mango quickly shook her head and replied him.

Zion shrugged his shoulders and said, "Since the result is just the same, what's the point of me making a fuss and throwing a tantrum? Why should I get myself exhausted to make a fuss since it's meaningless? I prefer to deal with the matter rationally and consider the things that happen in future."

Mango felt even more depressed upon listening to her son's remarks.

Look, the words didn't sound like it would come out from a five-year-old child.

However, Mango had known that Zion's words were reasonable. He was being rather rational and calm compared with other kids.

Mango let out a sigh before she said, "Zion, you always behave like your daddy." "I'm Mr. Ye's son. It doesn't seem justifiable if I don't behave like him."

Well, Mango discovered that she couldn't prevail over her son when it came to the open- up conversation with him, thus she decided to stop talking about it. Instead, she said, "Your daddy hopes that you can cooperate with Silver Fox to investigate the whereabouts of Barack. The only clue we could know at the moment is that he's very likely to be in Angolla and he's not in a good situation. We know nothing despite of the clue. Mommy knows that the matter might be hard on you. You're still a patient after all, but both mommy and daddy won't be at ease to let others investigate it. Thus, both you and Silver Fox are the best candidates as our family is under an extraordinary circumstance."

Mango knew that they couldn't presume Zion from the perspective of an ordinary child, hence she decided to tell him everything.

Zion listened quietly and his brows frowned slightly. He whispered soon as Mango finished her words, "Mommy, why did Barack go to Longford County at that time?"

"Both your daddy and I are puzzled too. There is also something wrong with the point of time. However, there are no other hints up till now, so we both plan to go to Longford County once again."

Mango's words caused Zion's brows to tightly furrow. He seemed to have thought of something, yet nothing at the same time.
