The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1489

Queena and Nathaniel walked out when they heard Dennis's laughter. Upon seeing Mango's surprised expression, they couldn't help but ask, "What are you two talking about? You guys look happy." Dennis immediately stopped smiling, but there was a touch of tenderness in his eyes. He quickly got up and took the apron from Queena's hand. Then, he said with a smile, "Here, sit down. I'll do it." "It's okay. Nathan helped me a lot, and I didn't do much."

Queena was particularly considerate towards Dennis.

When Mango saw her parent's sweet interaction, she felt delighted and comforted.

Nathaniel handed a glass of fresh orange juice to Mango and asked with a smile, "What happened? You're beaming."

"Urgh! Don't mention it. It's so embarrassing."

Mango leaned into his embrace embarrassedly. Then, she whispered in his ear, "I asked Dad whether he is a robot."

Nathaniel slightly paused and broke out in laughter. Upon seeing Mango's embarrassed expression, he stopped laughing and asked, "So, is it true or not?"

"I don't know. Dad even asked me to find the switch on him. Urgh! I felt so stupid for asking."

"It's fine. You're just silly at times."

Mango was annoyed when she heard this. She raised her fist and gave him a light punch.

"Shut up. Don't talk anymore."

Nathaniel grinned. In fact, he was enjoying the time spent with his family. However, there were still tons of troublesome matters that he had to settle out there. He really hoped that he could stay here and spend the rest of his life with Mango.

Queena felt much more relieved as she looked at Mango's cheerful expression.

"By the way, what were you guys talking about just now?"

Queena was very curious as Dennis and Mango hadn't seen each other very often. Although they were biologically related, they were still acting like strangers to each other. Thus, it was surprising to see both of them being friendly and chatting away happily.

Mango was afraid that Dennis would say something about her stupid question, so she quickly covered it up, "We are talking about the future with robots, right? Dad."

She blinked her eyes at Dennis, which melted his heart.

It seemed that it wasn't a bad decision to have a sweet and loverly daughter, wasn't it?

"Well, yes, we were talking about robots."

Dennis had no choice but to agree to what Mango was saying.

Queena seemed to have realized that both of them were collaborating, so she knew that she couldn't get anything out of them. Then, she said, "Well, I'll stop asking as you guys seem to be hiding secrets from me. Anyway, it's time for dinner, so where's Zion?"

"Zion went upstairs. He must be playing games. I'll call him."

Mango was about to go upstairs when Nathaniel stopped her.

"I'll go, you're pregnant, so it's harder for you to move around." "All right."

Mango agreed quickly.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel knocked on the door when he arrived at Zion's room. Once he entered, he noticed that Zion was typing on his computer. He couldn't help but glance at him and ask, "What are you researching?"

"This is the draft for the development of the new software. Although I am not in the military area, I have to finish this task."

Zion finished writing down the last page and saved it. Then, he turned off the computer.

Nathaniel praised him for his persistence and went downstairs with him for dinner.

Mango felt like she was dreaming. She couldn't believe that she was actually having dinner with her long-lost parents. It was simply too wonderful!

On the other hand, Dennis felt terrible when he saw Mango like this.

"Your mom cooks very well. Eat up."

"Alright."

Mango gulped all the food that Dennis served to her without caring whether they were her favorite dishes.

Zion had always been very quiet, but he was also silently observing Queena and Dennis. The curiousity in his eyes made Queena very fond of him. "Zion, come here."

Queena waved at him while saying this.

Zion had intended to reject Queena's offer. Upon seeing the eager look in her eyes, he immediately walked up to her. Then, Queena held him in her embrace.

Grandma's arms were different from his mommy's. Despite so, it felt warm and snug.

Then, Zion sat in Queena's arms obediently and watched as Queena pick up a lot of food for him. He frowned, but he still ate it all.

The atmosphere was very harmonious.

After the meal, Nathaniel prepared some fruit, while the family sat on the sofa and chatted happily.

"Mom, are you and dad going to stay here all the time? Haven't you thought about going back? Grandpa will be exhilarated if he knows that you are still alive. Besides, Barack is back home too. Dad, you should go and visit him someday. Barack's wife is also free from Laborn's control and is living happily now."

Mango wanted nothing more than to tell Queena and Dennis what had happened recently.

Dennis paused slightly when he heard about Barack news. Then, a trace of pity flashing across his eyes.

"Let's give Barack some time to rest. I'll visit him when he's fully recovered. Besides, it's still not a good time for us to show up now."

After hearing Dennis's words, Mango was stunned.

Queena continued, "Yes, we all know what happened outside, but it's not suitable for us to appear now."

"Why is that?"

Mango wanted to know, and Nathaniel was also curious.

Dennis whispered, "How did you guys get here?"

"We..."

Only now did Mango remember why she had entered the Dark Forest.

She had forgotten about their initial plans when she met Queena and Dennis.

"We are here to find a friend."

Mango's heart sank at the thought of Desmond.

Seeing her depressed expression, Queena patted her head and said, "Is it Desmond Blu?"

"Mom, do you know him?"

Mango was surprised when she heard this. However, when she recalled that Desmond appeared at the place where her parents were living, she couldn't help but say worriedly, "Desmond is my friend. However, something happened to him. He's a little out of his mind now, so why don't you guys come with me? I'll find another place for you guys to stay and I guarantee that no one will discover it. It's too dangerous for you guys to stay here. That friend of mine is a very dangerous person."

On the other hand, Nathaniel was also a little worried.

"Yes, you guys should leave with us."

Dennis saw the worry in their eyes. However, he shook his head and said, "Of course we have a reason to stay here. Now the friend you're looking for is also staying with us. Don't worry, he's fine."

"What?"

Mango and Nathaniel were stunned when they heard this.

Were they being serious?

When Dennis saw the confused look on their face, he clapped his hands and a woman immediately came in.

The woman looked a little familiar, and Mango was startled when she saw here.

"Anaya? Why are you here?"

This girl was Anaya!

So was Denver here too?

Mango looked at her in confusion, causing Anaya to feel a little uncomfortable.

"I have been living here all the time. Mr. and Mrs. Hans saved me when I had an accident in the Blu family. They also taught me some self-defence skills."

After hearing this, Mango was reminded of the organisation Anaya was involved.

She had always been worried that the organisation would become an obstacle to the relationship between Anaya and Denver. She was even afraid that they would use Anaya to deal with them. Now, this organisation was actually owned by her own parents?

Mango was dumbfounded as she learned the truth.

"Mom..."

She looked at Queena with a flustered look.

Queena smiled and said, "I am your mother. Therefore, I will take care of the people you love. Isn't it fine if I protect them on behalf of you?"

"But why didn't you tell me?"

Upon hearing this, Mango was very touched.

Then, Queena said in a low voice, "You and Nathaniel have been busy all the time, and you have been facing endless troubles. I have discussed with Dennis that we will help out wherever we can. We know that people will find out soon, and we're prepared for it."

"Thank you, mom."

Nathaniel quickly regained his senses thanked them profusely.

Then, Queena nodded and said to Anaya, "Call Desmond and Tristan over."

Mango immediately stood up in surprise when she heard this.

"Is Tristan still alive?"

Everyone thought that Tristan was dead, and Priscilla almost went mad because of this. However, she didn't expect Tristan to be with her mother.

On the other hand, Dennis's brows furrowed in worry. Looking at the agitated expression on Mango's face, he coughed and said, "Mango, calm down. Don't be too agitated. Your mom and I won't tell you anything if you won't promise us to do that."

"No, you'd better tell me now. I'm so curious."

Mango quickly sat down again and promised that she would not act impulsively again. Meanwhile, Nathaniel was pleased by her obedience.

He couldn't help but think of Rita. That daughter of his really resembled Mango indeed.

On the other hand, Anaya nodded and left.

Zion had been watching from the side silently. He found that the security system here was very subtle, and it was challenging for him to crack it.

This was interesting.

Not long after, Anaya brought Desmond and Tristan in.

Mango was in disbelief the instant she saw Tristan. Her eyes immediately became teary as she threw herself at him.

"Tristan!"

Tristan was startled when someone suddenly pounced over from the opposite side. Although he didn't know who exactly it was, he was stunned by the familiar voice. Then, he quickly caught hold of Mango's body.

"Mango, do you know that you are pregnant?"

Tristan was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he glanced warily at Nathaniel. Meanwhile, Nathaniel looked somewhat displeased. Despite so, Tristan enjoyed it.

Mango hurriedly punched Tristan in the stomach and sobbed, "Do you still remember that I'm pregnant? Then why are you fooling us? Do you know that we're all worried about you? Do you also know that Priscilla almost went crazy because of you? Even if you didn't want to let us know your whereabouts, you should at least tell Priscilla! You b*stard!"

While she was saying this, she lifted her leg and stomped down forcefully on Tristan's foot!
