The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 1479
Priscilla woke up from a nightmare as her entire body was drenched in sweat.
She dreamed that Tristan stood in front of her, besmeared with blood all over his body. However, he looked at her affectionately and said nothing.
Priscilla kept chasing after him, but he drifted further away.
Wait, that was right!
He was floating on air!
Thus, she felt uneasy after such a dream.
She looked around and found that Tristan wasn't around, so she got up and went out of the room. Just as she wanted to ask, she saw the emergency signal of the Acker family was lit up.
"Gosh, Mr. Acker is in danger. Hurry up and support him."
The captain said hurriedly and quickly went out with his men.
Priscilla's heart suddenly tightened after hearing this.
Did Tristan go out to complete some dangerous mission again?
She thought about his humorous behaviour just a moment ago. How could he be in danger in the blink of an eye?
However, she had no time to put on her jacket. Without further delay, she jumped into the car with her subordinates and headed straight to the Dark Forest.
She was trembling in fear when she arrived at the destination.
Tristan had come to the Dark Forest!
Was he out of his mind?
Didn't he know that this was an ancient forest?
Her palm was sweaty, and her face was pale as she thought about this. An immense feeling of uneasiness filled her heart, so she felt extremely nervous and suffocated. When the captain saw that Priscilla was here, he had no time to say anything else. He grabbed one of his men and asked, "Where's Mr. Acker and the others?"
"Mr. Acker went in first, but something seems to have happened. The others followed him in and haven't come out yet."
The subordinates didn't follow in, so they had no idea know what was going on inside. In fact, they felt a little guilty.
Meanwhile, Priscilla ran frantically inside.
Along the way, Teagan had already cut off weeds and created a path.
Priscilla followed the path. Suddenly, she noticed that Teagan and the rest were standing there with their backs facing her. No one spoke, and it was as if they have been controlled. The surroundings were filled with the metallic smell of blood.
Priscilla was extremely nervous and tried to suppress the uneasiness in her heart as she walked over step by step.
She could even hear her own heartbeat, and it was beating rapidly.
"Teagan, where is Tristan?"
Priscilla spoke softly. Just then, the crowd swiftly turned around and blocked her from entering. It seemed as if a curse had been broken.
"Prissy, why are you here? I'll let someone send you back."
Teagan's eyes were scarlet red, and there were even traces of tears.
Pricilla's heart skipped a beat when she saw this.
"I'm not going back. Where's Tristan?"
"He has things to take care of, but he'll probably be back soon." As Teagan spoke, he stepped forward and was about to take Priscilla away by her arm. However, Priscilla suddenly saw a pair of familiar pants. Those pants belonged to Tristan!
Priscilla had embroidered her own name on Tristan's trousers. She hadn't have the chance to tell Tristan about this, but she did not expect to see it here.
"Get lost!"
She was alarmed and immediately pushed Teagan aside. Then, she ran inside like a madman, but Teagan pulled her by the waist to stop her.
"Prissy, you can't go in. Don't go in. I beg you!"
Teagan burst into tears as he said this.
"No! Let me go!"
Priscilla seemed to realize something and was wanted to rush inside desperately. Hence, she had even managed to push Tristan away with her strength.
However, she was utterly in shock and flustered when she saw this scene in front of her.
There were broken limbs everywhere, and unrecognizable corpses were all over the place. It was like a large autopsy site, but the bodies had been torn apart while they were alive. Priscilla was disgusted by the scene and she almost threw up.
Suddenly, she spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, she frantically searched through those broken limbs.
Finally, she discovered the pants that belonged to Tristan. However, only a broken leg remained. Hence, she couldn't take it anymore and fainted on the spot.
"Priscilla!"
Teagan quickly stepped forward and hugged her.
She was already in shock. Therefore, Teagan struggled to find the rescue team, and it took them quite a while to revive Priscilla.
"Prissy, I can't let anything happen to you. If not, how should I explain this situation to my brother?"
Teagan cried childishly had said this.
Tristan was his favorite brother and was someone who had grown up with him. But now, he was gone.
Even though he never managed to find Tristan's body, the latter had ended up in this state a few minutes after he sent them a signal for help. Therefore, he had to accept what had happened. Moreover, he witnessed Desmond tearing and dismembering bodies when he came in with his team.
He didn't know whether the victim was his brother or not. However, his brother was gone now.
Instead, Desmond's bloodthirsty and brutal look was engraved in his mind.
Meanwhile, Priscilla immediately grabbed Teagan by the collar and cried, "What's going on? Tell me clearly! Where's Tristan?"
"Prissy..."
"Tell me the truth! My husband is gone. How long are you going to hide it from me?"
Priscilla instantly flared up as she heard this.
At this moment, Teagan did not dare to hide anything and quickly said it.
"It was Desmond! He was the one who killed my brother because he had gone mad and insane. Tristan was going to take him back, but he didn't expect that..."
Teagan could not continue saying anymore.
Priscilla was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes suddenly turned cold.
"Desmond Blu! I will never forgive you!"
At this moment, Priscilla was shrouded in gloominess and distress.
She pushed Teagan away and continued to find Tristan's corpse because she was unwilling to give up. However, she could not find him.
The bright red blood stained her clothes, her hands, and all over her body. However, she felt as if her heart was bleeding as well.
Her eyes were teary. No matter how hard Teagan tried to dissuade her, she refused to stop. Her fingers were smudged with blood as she continued to fumble through the massive killing field. She felt as if this was the only moment she could get closer to Tristan.
He had promised to take her on a trip overseas after he was done with this.
"Liar! Tristan Acker, you are a liar!"
The people surrounding them started to shed tears when they saw her heart-wrenching cries.
"I want to find Desmond! Where is he?"
She suddenly stood up and looked at Teagan furiously.
Teagan really couldn't let her in.
"Desmond is heading there."
He pointed in a random direction and watched as Priscilla stomped away. Then, he knocked her out with a punch. After that, he ordered in distress, "Burn all the bodies on the spot."
The remaining people quickly buried the bodies. However, Teagan had recorded this thrilling scene before this.
Then, he left the Dark Forest with Priscilla. He finally couldn't hold it in and cried in devastation as he left.
"Tristan, you will come back, won't you? You will be fine, right?"
His voice was trembling, and his tears couldn't stop flowing down.
Everyone felt very sad at this scene.
However, Teagan also knew that Desmond could suddenly appear, so these people were his targets now. Teagan knew that he had to send Priscilla back safely for his brother's sake as this was the only thing he could do for him.
"Let's go."
Teagan brought Priscilla and the rest out of the Dark Forest and returned to the Acker family. He then told this matter to Lebanon.
Lebanon was completely stunned when he heard this.
"How could it be?"
Not long ago, the two of them were drinking together. How did it happen unexpectedly?
Furthermore, how could the murderer be
Desmond?
After that, Desmond immediately dispersed the crowd. He sat on the chair alone, and his face was full of tears.
It was already night when Priscilla woke up.
The empty bedroom was cold and empty. It was the first time she felt that the bed was massive, so she felt lonely and uncomfortable.
There was still Tristan's breath left on it. How could someone leave that easily?
She was deeply hurt and grieving.
Suddenly, Priscilla thought about the memories that she had with Tristan. She realized how much she really need Tristan and she loved him deeply.
What was the point of her living without Tristan?
The days would no longer be warm and bright without his presence.
Although Priscilla knew that she shouldn't have called Mango, she really couldn't stand it anymore.
She didn't have many friends and she only had Mango as a friend.
Right now, she was having a mental breakdown!
Her husband was dead.
He was killed by Mango's friend, Desmond Blu.
She needed an explanation!
When Mango received the call, she was still asleep, so she picked up the call in a daze.
"Priscilla, what's the matter? Why are you calling at this hour?"
"Tristan is dead."
Priscilla choked with sobs. After hearing this, Mango immediately got up from her bed.
"Stop joking around. My brother is such a powerful person..."
"He was killed by Desmond!"
Mango was stunned and in disbelief upon hearing Priscilla's words.
"What did you say?"
"I'm telling you that Desmond has gone mad. He was insane! Not only did he kill Tristan, he even tore my lover apart. I couldn't even find his complete body. Mango, what on earth are you thinking? Why did
you send a dangerous person to carry out a mission? Now, my husband is dead! Can you bring him back to life? What can you do?" Priscilla screamed at the top of her lungs as she said these words. Mango was completely in shock when she heard this.
How could this be?
Didn't she already prepare everything?
Furthermore, didn't Nathaniel say that there would be no problems?
How did this happen?
Tristan was her brother. She hadn't been with him for too long and Barack hadn't seen her son yet. How could this be?
"Priscilla, I..."
"Mango, I will definitely seek revenge. I'll catch Desmond with my own hands and kill him! I don't care what he means to you or whether he is truly innocent. All I know is that my husband is gone, and I no longer have him!"
Priscilla cried and hung up the phone.
Mango's heart ached, and she was flustered.
No, this couldn't be true!
She couldn't believe it!
She took out her phone to call Nathaniel, but his phone was turned off. What was Nathaniel doing? Where was he?
Mango urgently wanted to know where Nathaniel was and Desmond's situation. This was because she wanted to know if Priscilla was telling the truth.
At this thought, she hurriedly got out of bed and walked toward the door. Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her stomach. Then, she blacked out and fainted to the ground.
