The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1490

"Ouch..."

Mango did not show any mercy at all as Tristan immediately jumped up and staggered on his other feet. Nathaniel's darkened face finally eased a little, and there was even a hint of smile and pride on his face. "How dare you take advantage of my wife!"

Nathaniel cursed in his heart. Then, he took a sip of the water. He remained calm and composed as if he had never been worried about Tristan.

That was right. Nathaniel had been initially worried about Tristan, but he no longer was worried when Tristan never let Mango go as the latter hugged him.

Meanwhile, Tristan noticed Nathaniel's delighted expression and was so angry that his feet hurt. He couldn't help but said aggrievedly, "Mango, I'm your brother. Don't you feel sorry for hurting me this way?" "Do you have any conscience? If you do, then why would you leave a pair of your pants and a broken leg there? Priscilla almost killed herself because she thought you were gone, okay?" Tristan was taken aback by Mango's words.

"What happened to her?"

"Hah, are you worried about her now? Where did you go all this time? Aren't you afraid that anything will happen to her after seeing your broken leg? Tristan, you're a married man, do you know that? If you can't take care of your own woman for a lifetime, then you shouldn't have married her in the first place! Can you be more responsible? Do you know what she look like when I first came to Angolla? She looked all haggard and drained out! Furthermore, she refused to eat or drink and all she worry about was that broken leg of yours. Have you thought about her feelings? Tristan, do you think you are all that great? You abandoned everything to carry out missions for the country. You even let Priscilla suffer as you thought that it wasn't a big deal?! Why are you so confident that women like us will forgive you and wait for you regardlessly? Why? You're so full of yourself!"

Mango pushed Tristan away as her eyes became teary.

On the other hand, Nathaniel suddenly felt that Mango was scolding him as well. That was why Mango hadn't forgotten the matter where he had almost lost his life in Angolla, right?

He was startled by her words, especially the last sentence. It felt as if she was directing it towards him.

Then, Nathaniel quickly stood up and hugged her from behind. Then, he whispered, "Mango, don't get too worked up. You're pregnant, my dear."

"Shut up! Don't talk to me this way."

Mango was definitely venting her anger out on him.

However, Nathaniel did not dare to say a word because he knew that he made mistakes as well.

He was too afraid to do anything that could aggravate Mango's temper.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel couldn't help but glare at Tristan with resentment. It was all this b*stard's fault. Why did he remind Mango of that matter?

On the other hand, Tristan felt extremely sorry and uncomfortable after being scolded by Mango. He seemed to have seen traces of Priscilla in Mango, who was pointing at his nose and cursing loudly. Wait, that wasn't right.

Priscilla would never swear at him. At most, she would turn around and leave without saying a word or ignore him for the rest of her life.

Tristan suddenly panicked at this thought.

"Mango, you don't want me to be lonely the rest of my life, right?"

Tristan tugged on Mango's sleeve and said pitifully.

Mango shook him off and said coldly, "Don't pretend to be wronged and begging for sympathy here. I'm not on your side. If Priscilla wants to divorce you, I'll definitely support her! Get lost."

In fact, Mango had indeed been worried about Tristan. However, she was furious upon witnessing Tristan's lively appearance. This made her aware that this was just a carefully planned scheme, so she became enraged.

She couldn't imagine how Priscilla would feel if she knew the truth behind this incident. How could she accept the fact that her beloved husband had fooled her?

Mango had experienced it before, so she naturally knew what it was like. Hence, she couldn't help but grit her teeth in anger. However, she was pregnant, so she couldn't get too worked up. Therefore, she wanted Tristan to get away from her sigh instead.

On the other hand, Tristan was obviously saddened by her words.

"Mango, I'll be really upset if you do this to me."

"Are you planning to fight with me over it now?"

Nathaniel interrupted coldly as he couldn't wait to beat Tristan up.

It wasn't easy for him to seek forgiveness for what he had done to Mango last time. However, this issue resurfaced because of Tristan, that b*stard, who agitated his wife.

Upon noticing that Mango was being serious about it, Tristan could only retreat first. However, his handsome face darkened the moment he turned around, and his beautiful eyes were filled with heartache. Did Priscilla almost kill herself because of what happened to him?

The news was a big blow to Tristan.

He thought that the most important person in her heart was Nathaniel. Therefore, he believed that he was able to marry her because of his overbearing attitude and dominance. Even though Priscilla had accepted him and traveled miles away to be with him when Laborn attacked the Acker family, he still thought it was only because Priscilla had become his wife.

Tristan knew that Priscilla had feelings for him, but he did not expect it to be so deep. He thought that his fake death would only anger her and made her seek revenge on Desmond. However, he would never have thought that she would die for him.

He had randomly picked up the broken leg and put his pants on it because he had discovered Priscilla's trick. He wanted to use Priscilla to spread the news about his death to make people believe him and proceed with his plans.

Right then, he knew that he had done something wrong.

Upon realizing Priscilla's love for him, she would definitely divorce him and drive him away if she knew he had faked his death.

On the other hand, Tristan knew Priscilla well.

So, what should he do?

He made a stupid mistake, so his marriage was now in jeopardy. What should he do?

Mango didn't care what Tristan was thinking. Hence, she turned around and looked at both Queena and Dennis. She took a deep breath and asked, "Mom and Dad, is this your plan?" Queena was stunned when she heard what Mango had said.

In their time, loving each other meant that they would take care of each other, furthermore, it also meant However, why couldn't Mango accept it? Was it still unforgivable even if it was for the sake of the mission and the country?

Queena immediately looked at Dennis while asking for his help.

She was a little intimidated by Mango's demeanour.

Was it because she had been gone for too long a generation gap between her and the current youths? She was a little confused about how Mango was dealing with the current situation and why she wanted to help Priscilla.

After seeing this, Dennis couldn't help but grin helplessly.

Queena had always been an arrogant and proud woman. Why was she acting this way?

Despite so, he felt pitiful for her.

Dennis coughed and said, "Ahem! Mango, you scared your mother."

Mango slightly paused, and she was stunned as their parents were showing off their affections in front of them.

What did she do?

Wasn't she just asking a question?

As compared with her rude attitude toward Tristan just now, she was now very obedient.

Nathaniel awkwardly pulled at Mango as she said this, and Mango didn't drive him away. Instead, she allowed him to lead her onto the sofa.

"I'll get you guys some tea then."

However, Queena immediately made up an excuse and ran away.

She couldn't help it as it was the first time she had witnessed Mango being so terrifying after a long time. Hence, she decided to leave the matter to Dennis.

As Queena thought so, she ran away happily.

The corner of Mango's mouth twitched when she saw Queena's actions.

"Don't bully your mother. She is old and her health isn't well. What if something happens to her?"

Mango was dumbfounded after hearing her question.

"All I did was to ask a question."

Dennis' words were very domineering.

On the other hand, Mango was at a loss for words.

"But you guys..."

"You have already guessed it, haven't you? If that's so, why do you still ask?"

Dennis once again interrupted Mango by saying that.

Suddenly, Mango started disliking her father now.

Was Dennis really a robot and not her father? Otherwise, why couldn't she feel that her father loved her?

Upon seeing that her wife was out of words, Nathaniel quickly spoke up.

"Dad, isn't Demond acting violently? If Tristan's death is a trick, Desmond should be fine, right?" "Why do you think so?"

Dennis looked at Nathaniel with some interest.

Nathaniel pondered for a moment and said, "Before Desmond left Ocean City, we made a detailed plan. I even installed a chip under his skin to find his exact location. However, the chip had malfunctioned after Desmond went into a rampage. I believe that you were the ones who did it right, Dennis? Although Desmond killed the people in the institute, Carmel Liu, my substitute, was nowhere to be found. I believe that he was either with Desmond or controlled by you. Besides, the situation during that time was dangerous. Although Tristan was worried, he wouldn't have left the Acker family and Pricilla unattended before heading to the Dark Forest to search for Desmond unless he had other plans. What happened next was that Desmond attacked Tristan, leaving a broken leg behind. Then, the mastermind began to look for Desmond's whereabouts, which would then expose their location. All this seemed irrelevant, but I can see it. These are all related."

Mango frowned when she heard Nathaniel's words. So all of this was actually part of his ploy!

These people were absolutely out of the world!
