The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1378

Atlas called Laborn almost immediately when he got the news. At this time, Laborn was talking with Tristan's doppelganger at the national banquet. He was discussing with Teagen about his investments into the military institute. During this time, he saw Atlas' call. He was slightly stunned, but he still hung up.

Well, Atlas was probably calling because of money. Now, Laborn felt that the most important thing was to take this opportunity to rope in the Acker family. On the other hand, Atlas thought that Laborn didn't pick up the call because the latter had killed his son.

Therefore, he was enraged, and he called Laborn repeatedly until his eyes were burning with fury.

Meanwhile, Teagan looked at Laborn's mobile phone and whispered, "Your Majesty, you should answer your phone first. I don't want to stop you from doing any of your important affairs."

Right now, Laborn was already a little annoyed.

What was wrong with Atlas today?

Well, he had given Atlas a lot of authority these few years. Therefore, did Atlas forget who the real king of Angola was.

Then, Laborn left angrily with his phone. Then, he picked up the call only when he had arrived at an empty place.

"Atlas, I have something very important to do now. I'll call you back later and listen to what you have to say."

Laborn had said these words with an unpleasant tone.

However, Atlas sneered and said, "Heh! Will you call me back? I'm afraid that you will send troops to kill me later."

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

Laborn frowned and felt that Atlas was overstepping his boundaries.

Then, Atlas said coldly, "Hah! You killed my son, but you're asking me what I'm talking about? Laborn, my dear brother, do you still remember what you told me before? You promised to treat my son well! Now that you killed my son, how are you going to explain this to me?"

"Huh? What are you talking about? Bernard is having a good time at the party."

Laborn felt that Atlas was a little out of his mind right now.

"Really? Then turn on the video camera and let my son talk to me! If he's with you, I'll punish myself because of how disrespectful I was today.

However, if my son is dead, you need to explain the situation to me!"

Laborn finally understood something after hearing what Atlas had said.

"Huh? What happened to Bernard?"

"He's dead! Don't say that you don't know about this!"

Atlas started shouting louder suddenly.

All these years, why had he left home in search of wealth? He had done it for his son and because the Fang family was ambitious! Now that he was about to succeed, he didn't expect Laborn to get rid of them instead. Urgh! What kind of brother was he?

On the other hand, Laborn frowned and said in a low voice, "Alright, I'll go check it out first. I'll call you later."

After that, he hung up without waiting for Atlas's reply.

Then, Laborn quickly found his guards and whispered, "Send a team to find Bernard. It doesn't matter what he is doing right now. Just bring him to me." "Yes, Sir!"

The guards quickly left after receiving those orders..

On the other hand, Prestin had been staring at Laborn. When he saw how the guards had left in a rush, he knew that something had happened.

He immediately gestured for his men to follow them.

Suddenly, Laborn felt a little uneasy.

He had never felt this way before. Furthermore, he recalled how rude furious Atlas had been just now. Did something really happen to Bernard?

However, he had given complete authority to Bernard in this palace. Therefore, no one could do anything to him.

After that, he looked at his two sons again. Both of them were under surveillance, and he had also sent people to keep a close eye on their men. Hence, they had no chance to do anything. If something happened to Bernard, this meant that the latter had run out of the palace.

Well, the only people outside the palace that wanted to attack Bernard were probably Nathaniel and Mango.

"Guards! Find out where Mango and Nathaniel are immediately!"

Initially, Laborn had set up an elaborate trap to catch Mango and Nathaniel. However, it seemed that they were competent, so they had sneaked out of the palace. Who was it?

Who on earth was the person who had helped them?

At this thought, Laborn once again looked at Lebanon and Prestin. He also thought about Priscilla, but all three of them didn't have time to do anything at all.

Wait!

What about Prisca?

Suddenly, Laborn thought of his sixth daughter.

He had rarely paid attention to Prisca. She had only shown up briefly when the banquet started, so could she have done this?

Well, now that Laborn had his suspicions, he had to do something. Hence, he called his guards and whispered, "Go and find Prisca. It doesn't matter what she's doing right now. Find her and tie her up in my study."

Right now, Laborn had a murderous gaze while he was saying these words.

After all, he had planned to use his daughters to expand his authority by marrying them away. Therefore, if Prisca helped Mango attack his family, he would get rid of this unfaithful child.

On the other hand, Prisca didn't know that Laborn was looking at her. Instead, she had been captivated by the man who had been sent to her while he was unconscious. Thus, she was blushing out of embarrassment.

"Your Highness, I brought this man to you, but he's a little stubborn. If he wakes up later, I'm afraid that you won't be able to control him. So, why don't we find someone to tie up his hands and feet first?" Sina looked at Prisca and couldn't help but say.

However, Prisca shook her head and said, "No, I'm interested in him, so I don't want to force him. Furthermore, I didn't capture him here to do anything else. I just wanted to see him instead. Why don't you leave now? Also, tell everyone that they shouldn't come in without my permission, or they will be consequences."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Then, Sina looked at the unconscious man before leaving quietly.

Meanwhile, Prisca walked to the bed and reached out to stroke the man's face.

He was so handsome!

Prisca outlined the man's eyes, nose, and thin lips with her fingers. Right now, her heart was racing.

How could such a handsome man not see how good she was?

Well, Prisca rarely took a fancy to anyone, except for this. Unfortunately, this man was emotionless. Therefore, no matter what she did, he still wouldn't pay attention to her.

How could she make this man fall in love with her?

Did she really have to giver her body to him.

At this thought, Prisca hesitated, but she was also tempted by it.

Thus, she couldn't help but swallow a gulp of saliva. Then, she slowly unbuttoned her clothes as if she had made a decision. However, she stopped when she had stripped until only her underwear was life.

Right now, her face was as red as a tomato. She leaned down slowly and kissed the man's face. After that, she unbuttoned the first button on the man's shirt, revealing his attractive collarbone. When she saw this, she couldn't help but gulp down her saliva again.

He was just so handsome!

She could already fantasize about what they were about to do next just by looking at his collarbone.

After that, Prisca quickly unbuttoned the second button to reveal his muscular chest.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in through the window, so Prisca couldn't help but tremble. She felt a little cold right now.

Although she felt hot and aroused right now, she still thought the wind was a little chilly.

Therefore, Prisca stopped what she was doing and got up to close the window. When she turned around, she found a sharp dagger against her neck.

Then, a woman in a black cloak looked at her coldly.

Her eyes were sharp, and she had a piercing gaze. A dark mask was covering her face, so Prisca couldn't see how she looked like. On the other hand, Prisca felt shivers when she felt the murderous aura that the woman was emitting.

"Who are you? How did you get in?"

Prisca was a little scared as she asked this, but she did not scream.

She knew that once she made a sound, Sina, who was standing outside, would definitely bring others to save her. However, the woman had pointed a dagger at her neck. If she had shouted right now, she would probably be beheaded before Sina could come in.

Therefore, what she needed to do right now was to calm down.

Fortunately, she had become braver after following Tristan for the past few years.

On the other hand, the woman seemed furious as she said coldly, "How dare you touch him? Where did you touch him just now?"

Prisca was stunned for a moment after hearing what the woman had said, but she immediately understood what was going on. Then, she glanced at the man who was lying on the bed. Sure enough, the buttons that she had unbuttoned just now were all buttoned, but he was still unconscious.

"Who the hell are you? What's your relationship with Denver?"

Prisca asked coldly. After all, even though she was on the verge of death, she was still furious.

After all, the man she had her eyes on was outstanding! However, she didn't expect anyone else to covet after Denver too!

However, the woman sneered before replying, "Heh! You don't deserve to know about this!"

After she said that, she waved her hand suddenly. Then, Prisca only felt a slight chill on her fingers before she felt severe pain all over her body. Suddenly, her little finger had been detached from her body! "Argh! It hurts!"

Prisca couldn't help screaming.

After that, the woman knocked her out and carried Denver up. Then, she leaped out of the window as Sina rushed into the room.

"Your Highness!"

When Sina saw that Prisca's fingers were bleeding, she was frightened and hurriedly called the doctor.

At this time, Laborn's guards also arrived at the palace.

They were a little surprised to see this scene, but they still followed Laborn's orders. Therefore, they took both Prisca and the doctor to Laborn's study.

On the other hand, Laborn frowned when he saw that Prisca was unconscious and that she had a severed figure.

"What's going on?"

Sina was Prisca's personal maid, so she had no choice but to step forward and reply.

"Your Majesty, Princess Prisca fell in love with a man, but the man refused to pay her any attention. Therefore, she sent people to abduct the man and drug him tonight while everyone was at the banquet. Then, she asked us to go out, so we didn't know what had happened. Suddenly, we heard the Princess shouting, and then the man had disappeared. At that time, her finger had already been cut off, and she was already unconscious."

Laborn was a little upset after hearing what Sina had said.

"You bastard! How could you be such a slut? How can I marry her off if rumours start spreading because of this? What's the name of that man? Find out about him right now!"

After all, Laborn had his pride. He could do anything he wanted to his daughter. However, he couldn't allow anyone else to look down on Prisca.

Therefore, that man deserved to die!

Moreover, this man could roam around the palace easily, so his identity had to be powerful. In fact, this man could also be related to Nathaniel and Mango!

Although he was unsure if this man had used Prisca, he decided to find the man first.

When Sina saw that Laborn was angry, she said softly, "That man is called Denver. He came here to treat someone. He's... he's a rogue!"

"Wait, say that again. What is his name?"

Laborn's eyes immediately narrowed when he asked this.
