The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1481

"Zion, I..."

Haniya didn't know what to say. Thus, Zion pushed her aside and hurriedly went to the study room before calling Nathaniel.

"Mr. Ye, Haniya said that Desmond killed Tristan. Is it true?"

However, there hadn't been any reply from the other side. If it weren't for the sound of breathing, Zion would have thought that Nathaniel had hung up the phone.

"Speak! Daddy!"

There were tears in his eyes as he said these words.

He knew the importance of family relationships towards Mango. Although he had never met Tristan before, he knew that he was the son of Barack. After all, Barack looked exactly the same as his grandfather. Therefore, Mango cared for Tristan.

He finally understood why Mango fainted.

Hence, Nathaniel was at a loss for words when he heard what Zion said.

"Zion, listen to me and take good care of mommy.

Don't let her go out, okay?" "What do you think I can do? Can I stop Mommy? Or can I stop Aunt Haniya?"

Zion suddenly burst into tears.

"Why did this happen? What happened to Desmond? How could this be?"

No one could answer this question.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel was very surprised. He had set up everything and arranged them appropriately. He even assigned his staff to provide support in the military institute. That was why he had allowed Tristan to contact Desmond. Furthermore, Desmond was alright during that time, so what went wrong?

"Zion, I'm a little busy now, I'll talk to you later, so be a good boy. You've grown up now and you'll protect mommy, won't you?"

"Yeah, I will."

Zion hung up the phone and looked in the direction of Mango's room, but he suddenly didn't know what to do.

Nathaniel had just hung up the phone when his subordinates came over to report.

"Mr. Ye, there's no one else in the sanatorium."

"What did you say?"

Nathaniel hurriedly came to the sanatorium with wounds all over his body. He was stunned when he heard such a report from his staff.

"Jose is gone. It seems that he left by helicopter a few minutes ago."

"Where did he go?"

"Im not sure, but our people have already followed him."

It seemed that Jose had always been in the sanatorium from what he had said. Therefore, Jose probably never triggered Desmond's violence. Or had Atlas contacted Jose before he died? However, Nathaniel's subordinates were also in the military institute. He should have receive news about it if Atlas were to attack Desmond.

That person was Carmel!

Although Carmel was associated with Brantley, she was indeed a graduate student of a master's degree. Therefore, Carmel would know what Jose and Atlas did to Desmond.

However, it was impossible to reach Carmel now. Although her whereabouts remained a mystery, Nathaniel still believed that Carmel was alive.

If Carmel was still there, then what triggered Desmond's violence?

But if it weren't for Desmond, how could anything have happened to Tristan?

These series of questions troubled Nathaniel, and he couldn't understand them.

"Let's go in and have a look."

At this thought, Nathaniel walked into the sanatorium.

There really was a research base in the sanatorium. It seemed like it wasn't built recently. In other words, Sophia had been secretly doing something when she was alive. This was her research base, or rather, the base of the people who had been working for her.

Nathaniel was distressed when he remembered that Sophia didn't tell him who her biological father was.

Right now, both Isla and Sophia was dead, and Jose was the only clue they had.

Nathaniel suddenly thought of something.

"Tell our people to ensure Jose's safety."

Just as Nathaniel finished speaking, a loud noise came from the other side, and then the communication was interrupted.

"What's going on? Investigate it!"

Nathaniel quickly ordered his men to investigate the helicopter that was on the mission.

"Mr. Ye, our helicopter was attacked and shot down. The situation of the people above is still unknown."

"What about Jose?"

Nathaniel suddenly became worried.

"He was also shot down, but I will send someone to check."

The subordinate quickly turned around and ran out.

What he was most worried about was finally happening.

If the mastermind killed Jose, then they wouldn't have any clues left!

But didn't Jose do research on Desmond? If Jose was killed, who else would be so familiar with Desmond's body structure?

The mastermind had made a wrong move now!

But if Jose died, it meant that Desmond could not come back at all. If that was the case, wouldn't he become the most powerful killing tool?

So what was the mastermind's plan?

Nathaniel was confused and puzzled, and this was the first time that he had thought this way.

However, there were some data and documents left. It seemed that Jose left in a hurry and did not have time to clean it up. Was it because he had heard of what happened to Desmond?

Didn't that mean that Jose never expect Desmond to go berserk? That was why Jose wasn't the one who had triggered Desmond's violent behavior. However, who else would take action against Desmond apart from him?

Nathaniel was racking his brains out for an answer.

Soon, he left the sanatorium and informed Morgan's people who had taken over the sanatorium. He hoped that the military could find out something.

When Mango woke up, she noticed Zion and Haniya standing by her side while looking at her worriedly.

She was flustered right now.

"What's wrong with you guys? Why are you standing by my bed?"

She couldn't grasp the situation.

Although Zion and Haniya didn't say anything, Mango was slowly recalling the incident that happened right before she fainted.

Her cousin!

Mango suddenly sat up, but she felt a little dizzy. Then, she was immediately propped up by Haniya.

"Madam, are you all right?"

She looked at Mango with guilt.

Then, Zion took a step forward and said in a low voice, "Mommy, these things have already happened, so there's nothing much we can do. Mommy, your health is not good right now, you need some rest. I don't want anything bad to happen to you."

Zion had never been good at comforting people. Furthermore, his mother was his favorite person.

Then, Mango looked at the pure and innocent look on her son's face and said sadly, "Sorry for making you worry."

"Mommy."

Zion grabbed Mango's hand and said, "Mr. Ye might have gone to investigate the incident that happened with Desmond, so don't worry. He will find out the truth behind this incident."

After hearing this, Haniya's eyes sank a little.

She hesitated and said in a low voice, "Madam, I want to go to Angolla."

Mango knew of the relationship between Haniya and Desmond. Therefore, Haniya probably wanted to go over now eagerly that something like this had happened to Desmond. If Haniya hadn't fainted, she would have gone there a long time ago, right?"

"Haniya, I know that you are feeling bad and sorry, but it's true that Desmond has lost his mind. It's no use going there. You're just putting yourself in danger."

"I don't care! I have to meet him no matter what he becomes. I think that the person that Desmond wants to see the most at this time is me. Even if he doesn't remember anything or know anything, he will still think of something when he sees me. I will bear the consequences for the things he's done. You guys can punish me however you what, but can you let me meet Desmond first?"

Haniya broke down in tears as she said these words.

Desmond was a jerk!

Didn't he say that he would be fine?

He promised to spend the rest of his life with her!

How did it become like this?

Was a lifetime this short?

Haniya felt extremely upset and depressed.

Upon seeing Haniya like this, Mango knew that it was useless for her to say anything.

"Do whatever you want. I'll ask Ned to prepare a helicopter for you, and I'll go with you."

"Mommy."

Zion was a little worried when he heard this.

"Mommy, you can't go. Your body..."

"My brother has already had an accident. You guys didn't allow me to do anything for the sake of this child. I should have followed Desmond over instead of letting my brother take over this issue. How am I supposed to stay calm now that Tristan is in danger and Priscilla is left alone over there? Perhaps I was wrong. I shouldn't be so obsessed with this child. Maybe her arrival is a mistake."

Mango's eyes were teary as she said these words.

"Mommy, don't say that. It's not a mistake. The baby is our family."

Zion cried as well when she heard this.

Everyone was grieving about what had happened.

Then, Nango hugged Zion tightly and sobbed, "Zion, you don't know what I'm feeling right now and how much I'm blaming myself. If I were the one the matter, perhaps Tristan wouldn't have been in trouble." "But you will be in danger! What about Mr. Ye, and my siblings? Mommy, it doesn't matter who's the one handling it. The violent factor in Desmond's body is already posing a threat, but you should blame Jose instead. It's his fault. Mommy, don't blame yourself."

Zion leaned against Mango's chest, but he didn't know how to comfort her to make her feel better.

Meanwhile, Haniya was even sadder.

Just then, Nathaniel came back.

"You've woken up? How do you feel?"

Mango shook her head and said, "I'm fine. Well, I couldn't take it when I first heard the news, but I'm much better now."

"I'll ask Bettany to come here and check up on you. Ned is already preparing a helicopter, so we'll leave in a minute."

Zion was worried upon hearing Nathaniel's words.

"Mr. Ye, mommy's body..."

"Leaving her alone at home would only make her more worried and sad. She'll even blame herself for what happened, and her emotions will affect the baby's health instead. In that case, let's go. I believe God has His plan, so the baby will be safe. If we end up losing it, then I'll guess we'll accept our fate."

Although Nathaniel was in sorrow, he knew that Mango was even more upset. Therefore, it was better for them to travel straight to Angolla rather than wait for the news at home.

Now that Laborn and Atlas were all gone, Lebanon was in charge of Angolla. As such, their safety was assured. In addition, it wouldn't be wise to leave Priscilla alone while she was looking out for Tristan. Furthermore, Nathaniel knew that he should be responsible for the matter as it was his fault for not handling the issue well. He knew that he had to give the innocent victims an explanation!
