The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 1425
"How did you lose her?! What were you doing?"
Nathaniel tried to get up from his wheelchair several times but failed. Instead, he tore open his wound. The gauze on his wound was soaked with bright red blood, and anyone would be frightened when they saw it.
Meanwhile, Bettany said with some concern, "Sir, you can't get agitated. Your injury...'
"My wife is gone! Who cares about my injuries?"
Nathaniel felt extremely miserable these few days, so he took this opportunity to release his anger.
The bodyguards shuddered when they heard this. After all, they didn't expect that their mistress would suddenly drive off alone and even abandon her car.
They had searched the entire Ocean City, but they didn't find any news about Mango. Hence, they were as anxious as Nathaniel right now.
"Why are you still standing here? Go and look for her! If anything happens to her, you will have to pay. theprice with your life!"
Nathaniel trembled with anger as he said these words, and he stood up while ignoring his wound. The severe pain made him sweat, and the veins on his arms were throbbing. Meanwhile, Bettany was so anxious for him that she hurried to stop him.
"Sir you can't do this! It was not easy for Madam to save your life, so your life belongs to her. Have you forgotten? She is still ignoring you because you almost lost your life recklessly the last time. Do you want to anger her again?"
Bettany had no choice but to mention Mango.
As she had expected, Nathaniel paused for a while.
He knew that Mango was worried about his body, but where was she now?
If he couldn't find her whereabouts, he couldn't sit still either.
At this moment, a subordinate finally sent a message to Nathaniel.
"Mr. Ye, Madam is eating dessert in a cafe on Commercial Street."
The subordinate also took a few pictures of Mango and sent them to Nathaniel after sending this text.
In the photos, Mango was eating happily. Her curved smiling eyes were adorable.
How long had it been since Nathaniel had seen
Mango so happy and carefree?
Nathaniel suddenly paused for a moment, and he recalled some of his memories from a long time ago.
When she was in university, Mango liked to eat at food trucks on the streets nearby with her classmates. Nathaniel didn't know about this at first, and he never set foot near the food trucks either. However, one day, someone had dragged him there. It was then that he saw Mango eating ice cream near the ice cream vendor.
Right now, Mango had the same expression as she did previously in the photos.
She had a joyful expression on her face as if she was eating the best meal in the world. Hence, anyone would be happy when they saw how happy she was eating.
Now that Nathaniel saw her like that again, he broke into a smile.
Nathaniel thought they had grown and became mature adults because they had been through so much in the past few years. However, at this moment that he realized Mango was still the same lovely girl in his memories.
"Bettany, ask Ned to bring around the car. I'm going over." "Sir, you need to rest."
Bettany said boldly.
However, Nathaniel acted as if he didn't hear it at all and said aggressively, "Get me there, or I'll take a taxi. Make your choice."
Bettany naturally did not dare to let Nathaniel take a taxi alone. Therefore, she sighed softly and went to carry out his instructions immediately.
On the other hand, Mango did not know about all this. She ate heartily but felt that her stomach was like a bottomless pit. No matter how she ate, she would not get full.
Then, she touched her belly and smiled gently. Then she said to herself, "My child, I think you might be a girl since you like eating sweets. Girls are fine as well because you can be Rita's companion. Do you know that Rita is a lovely child?"
When she thought about what Rita looked like when she was young, Mango smiled even more gently.
She missed the children a little right now.
Hmm, maybe she could bring the children home. By then, even if Nathaniel knew about her pregnancy, he wouldn't reprimand her in front of the children, right?
As she thought about this, Mango felt that she was simply ingenious.
"Hey, I would like another doughnut."
Mango simply ate her fill. She also realized that she felt much better after she had eaten the desserts as her frustrations seemed to have vanished.
After all, delicious food could put anyone in a good mood.
The owner soon brought her a doughnut and also a banana split on the house.
Mango was delighted when she saw this.
When Nathaniel arrived, he saw Mango chewing on a doughnut in one hand and holding a small spoon to eat the banana split in the other.
She was eating tiny mouthfuls of the banana split probably because she remembered the condition her body was in. Also, she would even warm the ice cream in her mouth before swallowing them slowly. However, she looked so cute right now as she had a satisfied look on her face.
Then, Nathaniel pushed the wheelchair and came over to her.
"Is it delicious?"
"It is!"
Mango answered subconsciously at first. After a few seconds, she realized that the voice sounded a little like Nathaniel's.
She tilted her head and glanced out of the corner of her eye. As she had expected, Nathaniel's familiar face appeared in front of her.
"Eat slowly, alright? No one will take the food from you. Look at you. There's food all around your lips."
Nathaniel had a doting look on her face as he said these words. He even reached out a finger to wipe the crumbs off the corner of Mango's mouth. However, his gentle and doting look immediately made Mango feel a little guilty.
She had no time to care about her argument with Nathaniel before. Now her mind was full of thoughts about her pregnancy. Should she tell Nathaniel about this?
What if he didn't allow her to keep her child?
Should she then continue ignoring him?
Mango continued to struggle while trying to make a decision.
Nathaniel saw that Mango was eating happily and contentedly at first. However, when she saw him, her expression immediately became conflicted, and her brows furrowed together. He then said helplessly, "Hah... do you not want to see me that much?"
"No, it's not like that!"
Mango quickly lowered her head and took the opportunity to avoid Nathaniel's hand as she said these words.
Right now, Nathaniel was doting on her so gently. Hence, would he turn against her if he had found out the truth?
If he found out that Mango could still become pregnant even after the surgery, she couldn't imagine what kind of expression he would have or what actions he would take.
Forget it! She would think about this later.
At this thought, Mango decided to run away from the problem temporarily.
"I'm full now."
Mango no longer had any appetite.
On the other hand, the glimmer in Nathaniel's eyes dimmed when he heard this.
He thought that Mango had not forgiven him yet.
Thus, he blamed himself for coming over.
He had ruined her mood for eating for no reason!
"What else do you want to eat? How about I go home first and let Ned stay with you?"
Mr. Ye, who used to be decisive and firm, was now submissive to Mango willingly.
Suddenly, Mango felt that she had gone too far.
After all, Nathaniel did nothing wrong. Although he was sometimes dominant, she could not ignore that he loved her more than life.
Well, Mango couldn't forget what Nathaniel had done previously. However, after learning that she was pregnant, Mango had strangely forgiven Nathaniel.
Wasn't it amazing?
She did not know why she thought this way either.
Then, when Mango saw Nathaniel gesturing for Bettany to push him away, she quickly grabbed the sleeves of his shirt.
Nathaniel froze for a moment before looking at Mango. Then, Mango said to him with a big smile, "I've eaten a little too much. Why don't we go and watch a movie? It seems like the two of us haven't seen a movie for a long time."
Nathaniel was stunned momentarily when he heard Mango's suggestion.
"What do you want to see?"
"Hmm, I don't know any new movies."
"I'll check it on my phone then."
Nathaniel quickly took out his mobile phone as he said this.
The movies that came out recently were either war or romance movies. However, Nathaniel did not know what Mango wanted to watch, so he asked her, "Why don't we watch a romance movie?" "No, let's watch an animated movie instead."
Mango's unexpected whim took Nathaniel by surprise. However, as long as his wife was willing to forgive him, he would accompany her to watch even documentaries, let alone animated movies. "Okay, I'll book the tickets then."
Nathaniel had at first planned on booking the entire cinema hall, but Mango said that she wanted to experience the life of an ordinary person, so he only bought two tickets.
On the other hand, Bettany shook her head when she saw this. It was impossible to ask Nathaniel to go back and rest at this time. Fortunately, they were going to watch a movie and it wouldn't cost him too much energy, so she didn't stop them.
Mango and Nathaniel went to the nearby cinema, but when they entered the movie hall, they found that the place was filled with children. They were the only adults there, and they seemed out of place. Hence, Nathaniel felt a little uneasy.
However, Mango said with a smile, "Are you regretting this?"
"Nah, they're just a bunch of little kids. I'll regard them as little pipsqueaks."
Nathaniel then patted Mango's head as he said this. After all, he felt great because he could once again sit with his wife and talk to her.
Then, he took the opportunity to hold Mango's hand, and their fingers interlocked.
Meanwhile, Mango sat beside Nathaniel in the hall while Bettany bought them popcorn and drinks.
When the movie started, the children were very excited, and Mango followed suit.
Throughout the movie, Nathaniel's gaze fell on Mango's face. He suddenly noticed that at this moment, Mango was more gentle than usual. There was even a tender gaze on her face, so Nathaniel felt that she was in peace right now.
As he watched her, Nathaniel thought that this was probably what a contented and serene life looked like.
On the other hand, Mango watched the movie and smiled from time to time. It had been a long time since she was so relaxed.
The tension and pressure that she faced in Angolla seemed to be completely relieved from this moment on.
Well, Mango did not know why she had reacted so dramatically to Nathaniel's self-sacrifice, but Nathaniel knew why.
After all, she was not a soldier, so she couldn't bear with how cruel war was.
Therefore, Mango had been tense because of the dangerous situations she had been in Angolla. Thus, when he was injured, or to be precise, the moment he was dragged away without dignity by Laborn's guard, she lost control of her emotions.
Therefore, she now had post-traumatic stress disorder because of the war. Initially, he had planned to ask Noah to come over the next day and have a counseling session with Mango. However, he did not expect that Mango would suddenly calm down and stabilize her emotions.
He didn't know why Mango would change all of a sudden, but to be honest, he liked this change very much.
Meanwhile, Mango fixed her eyes on the movie, but she could also feel the burning gaze in Nathaniel's eyes. She smiled a little as she turned her eyes and looked straight into Nathaniel's gaze.
"Am I beautiful?"
"You are!"
Nathaniel praised Mango without hesitation.
Mango's smile suddenly became particularly bright after hearing what he had said.
"Then, how about I give you two more daughters who are as beautiful as me?"
After hearing this, Nathaniel was immediately stunned.
