The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1471

"I don't want to go home! I haven't finished shopping yet. By the way, you should go. I'm sure that Mango needs your help urgently on something. Otherwise, she wouldn't have called you. I'm fine. I'm good. I

can go shopping by myself, so please put me down."

Deborah tried hard to act like how she used to be. However, Walter looked extremely upset this this.

"Deborah Grey, if you want me to kiss you right here, I can do it immediately."

After hearing this, Deborah immediately covered her mouth and buried his head in Walter's chest.

She could hear the sounds of his rapid heartbeat. He was probably mad at her.

Or perhaps he regretted it.

He had finally discovered her true self. In the end, she was just a woman filled with jealousy.

She was jealous of Mango, but she didn't dare to say it.

Alas! Walter must have been disappointed in her.

After all, he cared so much for Mango, didn't he?

At the end of the day, it was all her wishful thinking. She had long since known that she could not be compared to Mango. She had also decided to step back if there was any conflict between them, hadn't she? But why did she feel sad? Was it because she had expected more from Walter?

After all, Deborah knew how well Mango and Nathaniel had been treating them. Therefore, she should appreciate it and not turn behind their backs.

However, she felt even more uncomfortable at the thought of it, so she bit her lower lip. However, her face was pale, and her body was trembling. Meanwhile, Walter noticed her strange expression but did not say anything. Instead, he directly took her to the hospital where Noah was working. "Can you please check up on her condition?"

Deborah didn't expect to be brought to the hospital. Didn't Walter say that they would be going home?

She quickly jumped off the chair and said, "I'm fine! I'm doing well."

She was going to leave, but Walter shut the office door and locked it.

"Deborah Grey, running away now will not solve the problem. We are a couple! I've never asked for an obedient partner, nor a good wife or mother. Do you understand?"

Walter might have understood the reason for Deborah's abnormality. However, he felt that there they had to solve this problem as a couple, and they couldn't run away from the problem. After hearing his words, Deborah's face turned paler, and she twitched nervously.

So he disliked her, didn't he?

From the beginning, she was the who chased after him incessantly and begged him to marry her. Was he tired of it now?

Deborah was overwhelmed by such thoughts. Thus, she slumped down on the chair and felt depressed.

When Noah saw them acting like this, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he said to Walter in a serious expression, "You should leave first." "She is my wife."

"If you know she's your wife, then go out!"

Noah looked very unhappy, which made Walter startled.

Was there really something wrong with Deborah's current state?

He suddenly became afraid at this thought.

"She'll be fine, right?"

"You should leave her alone, otherwise it'll get worse."

Hearing this, Walter open the door and walked out without any hesitation.

When there were only the two of them left in the room, Deborah lied and said with a wry smile, "Noah, sorry for the troubles."

"You should let him know why you are acting like this."

Noah stood up with a complicated expression. Then, he helped Deborah to the bed and started to examine her.

Deborah did not resist at all. In fact, she was very familiar with the procedure.

She gently closed her eyes and said in a low voice, "Noah, please give me some medications to calm down."

"Sleeping pills is not a long-term solution, and your body can't stand it. Do you know that you have depression?" Hearing this, Deborah suddenly widened her eyes in shock.

"That's impossible! I'm very positive and bright. I can adjust myself well. You see, my mental state is also normal. Are you kidding me?"

Noah looked at her and said in disappointment, "Having depression does not mean you will feel sad and sorrow all day long, or that you'll seek death and suicide. Your mental state has been unstable since losing your child. Also, you can't sleep well every night, and even if you fall asleep, you will wake up quickly. You are afraid of being, but you will lock yourself in the room all morning. Look, you think that you're in control of your emotions, but you are actually sick. Deborah, you should let Walter know all this."

"No! We can't let him know! He has a lot of things to do, he..."

"What's wrong with him? Please stop making decisions for him, will you? He is your husband and not your boss. You don't need to be considerate of him all the time. You lost your child, and you were depressed during the miscarriage. When you needed his company the most, you chose to endure the pain yourself. Why don't you let him know how much you were expecting the child? Why didn't you let him know about your sadness and that you needed him?"

"I don't want to pass on my negative emotions to him!"

Deborah broke down in tears again as she said these words.

"I don't need him to stay with me because he pitied me, and I don't want him to give up of the process because of me. Although the child is gone, we still have a long way to go. I can't let him hate me because miss the child and I can't sleep well at night." "No one hates you. Deborah, you're just thinking too lowly of yourself. A healthy relationship isn't something like this. By doing so, Walter will not be grateful to you, and he might even hate you. You took away his right as a husband. Don't you know that you're just hurting him in another sense? You made him feel that you were considerate and tolerating to reassure him. But Deborah, what about yourself? Where do you stand at this point? Your emotions have been fluctuating since the beginning. When Walter travelled to help out Nathaniel, you should've told him about your critical condition and that you almost died! However, you chose to face it yourself. You have a husband, and you're not a widow! I don't think Walter knew anything about you until now. You've been having a difficult time since the miscarriage, right?"

Deborah burst into tears immediately after hearing what Walter had said.

She remained silent, and she had indirectly answered Noah's question by doing so.

Noah suddenly put her down and went outside directly. When he saw Walter, he pulled him directly into another unoccupied room.

"What are you doing?"

Walter was irritated by his rudeness and lashed out unhappily with furious eyes.

Then, Noah directly threw a stack of documents in front of Walter.

"What is this?"

Walter was a little surprised. However he still looked at it, and his face started becoming more upset.

These were all the medical records of Deborah and some emergency notice, which she signed them herself

Walter looked at the date and was stunned.

He had no idea that his wife was in a critical condition when he flew to the border town for Mango and Nathaniel.

Why did this happen?

Why didn't she tell him about it?

What did she take him for?

"I'll find her!"

"No, you stay here."

Noah grabbed his arm and whispered, "Her situation has always been bad, and she's just hiding it from you. She went to other doctors for treatment initially, but she begged me to keep it a secret from you when I found out about it inadvertently. She said that Mango and Nathaniel are always busy, so you should help them as their cousin. She kept assuring me that she could handle it by herself. You know what? She still has ongoing menses after the miscarriage. Normally, it should stop after, but she has had it in the past few months! Walter, didn't you notice it at all?"

"Huh? She said she was not feeling well. Furthermore, she looks disinterested every time I wanted to have an intercourse. I thought it was because she was feeling down after losing the child, so I didn't force her."

Walter felt terrible when he heard this.

"Didn't you see her sanitary napkin in the bathroom?"

"When I wake up every morning, she's already awake. By that time, she would have already made breakfast, and the toilet will be clean too. I have to rush to the company, so how am I supposed to notice it?" Suddenly, Walter found that he was enjoying the good things that his wife did for him, but he had never really cared about her.

Deborah looked happy and bright all day long. How could he have imagined that she would be like this?

Noah sighed and said, "She has insomnia. Alas! She can't sleep at night and is absent-minded during the day. After all, she told me that she hears her child crying next to her all the time. However, to not affect your sleep, she asked me for sleeping pills to help her sleep, but it didn't work. She is now depressed. Walter, going through miscarriage is a difficult process and is harmful to women. What she needs most is the companion of her family. Although she looks optimistic, she is severely depressed. Besides, her health is deteriorating. I suggest that you put down your work and take care of her physically and emotionally. Otherwise, it will definitely affect the relationship between both of you."

After saying that, Noah turned and left.

Walter was completely stunned when he heard this.

Did Deborah have depression?

"How could it be?"

He still remembered how passionate and cheerful Deborah was. How did she become like this not long after their marriage?

He always thought that he was good enough to her. At this moment, he found out that he was a jerk.

After all, he knew nothing about his wife's illness and thought that she was being a good husband. Where did his confidence come from? Walter wanted to beat himself up when he thought about this.

He couldn't imagine how Deborah felt when she was lying alone on the operating table while waiting for family signatures.

Where was he at that time?

He was by Mango's side!

Then, Walter slumped down on the chair, and a line of tears rolled down from the bottom of his eyes. He felt even more upset now.

He had once sworn to treat Deborah well, but the latter had turned out this way because of him. Alas! How could he take care of others if he couldn't even take care of his wife?
