The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1496

Meanwhile, Tristan sensed Nathaniel's gaze on him. He put down his work and looked at Nathaniel while saying, "Do you have something to ask me?"

"Don't you already know what I'm going to ask you?"

Nathaniel glared at Tristan arrogantly as he said this.

He wouldn't have cared about Tristan if the latter wasn't Mango's older brother. Furthermore, Tristan had even married Priscilla. After all, she was his savior, so he couldn't allow her to be with an unreliable man like Tristan.

"I think it's necessary for me to talk to Priscilla about her marriage."

Nathaniel touched his chin and said seriously. He really regarded Priscilla as his own sister.

Meanwhile, Tristan was slightly displeased.

"No! You'd better stay out of our affairs."

"You've already bullied my sister, so why can't I interfere? Tristan, you're going a little too far, aren't you? If we were to switch stances today, what would you do to me if I were to treat you like this?" "I'll beat you to death."

"Yeah, so I think it's time for me to do the same to you too."

Nathaniel rubbed his wrist as he spoke as he was ready to beat Tristan at any time. Just then, he heard Tristan mutter, "I'm doing this for her."

Upon hearing this, Nathaniel paused slightly.

He frowned and said, "Mango has always advised you to not this as an excuse to do things that will hurt them. What's wrong with you? Tell me."

Tristan looked outside when he heard this. Upon seeing that no one was around, he closed the door and shut down all the systems and equipment. However, Nathaniel was startled by his actions. "What the hell is going on?"

"There's something I just learned about."

Tristan sat aside and handed a data report to Nathaniel.

Nathaniel squinted for a while and said gloomily, "How on earth do you expect me to read let me such complicated data? I know all these words, but I don't understand what they mean." Tristan looked at Nathaniel with some contempt and whispered, "This is my blood test data. This is the only case in the world." "Aren't you too full of yourself? Haha!" Nathaniel was about to continue the sarcasm when he heard Tristan say, "I'm telling the truth. My blood type is different from my parents, and it's a special blood type. Although many people have it, there are always a few rare ones. I haven't found a second person with the same blood type as mine through the blood storage data worldwide, and I don't even know what this blood type is. The data and research regarding my blood type are highly protected, and I can't get in."

Nathaniel was stunned when he saw this.

"When did you find out about this?"

"When uncle said he would use my blood to suppress Desmond's rage, I kept an eye on it and analyzed my own blood."

Tristan's brows furrowed tightly as he replied.

After hearing this, Nathaniel's expression also became serious.

"So, since dad knows that this, why don't you ask him?"

"If uncle wanted to tell me, he could have told me sooner. He would not have waited until now. Furthermore, I found that the blood content of my body was similar to Desmond's, so I suspected that I was also being studied. I just don't know who's doing this to me!"

Tristan never thought he would be involved in such an embarrassing situation one day as this was an awful feeling. It would be fine if he knew about his fate long ago, just like Desmond did. However, he lived healthily for nearly 30 years, and he rarely got sick. Hence, he was surprised and felt uncomfortable knowing that he could be the object of research or even someone scientifically invented.

Nathaniel's face became a little solemn when he heard this.

"Maybe it's just your guess. You're Barack's son, and your dad won't hurt you no matter what."

"I know that, and I've also studied it. Even though the data in my body are extremely similar to Desmond's, I'm different as my genes are milder. I guess that if I'm also an experimenter, perhaps my body's genes might have been first researched and not be that dangerous. However, Desmond is a person who has been modified in the future and has his own unique skills. If my guess is correct, what awaits me will be a never-ending assassination once my secret is discovered by others. When that time comes, it may be difficult for me to provide Priscilla a stable life and future. If it's like this, it's better to let her think that I'm dead. The pain and sadness she's experiencing will eventually get better in time, especially with you guys around her. Without me by her side, her life will have a new start. Perhaps in a few years, she'll forget about me and find a normal person to live a peaceful life with."

Tristan felt heartbroken as he spoke of this.

He could not bear the thought of Priscilla having a relationship with another man.

Looking at Tristan's pale face, Nathaniel patted him on the shoulder and said, "Look, you already can't take it just by imagining it. Do you think you can really tolerate her falling in love with others? Tristan, stop lying to yourself. You know you can't let go of Priscilla, and she's not the kind of woman who can fall in love with others easily either. Besides, it's just your speculation. Even if your guess is true, the worst thing that could happen is that you'll end up just like Desmond. Also, do you think that you will be in any danger with the protection of the Hans family and the Xiao family?"

"But what if the other party is way superior? Or shall we say the person in the Santell Capital?"

Nathaniel was slightly stunned after hearing what Tristan had said as he asked, "What are you talking about?"

"You heard that, didn't you? If my superiors didn't order me to do so, who do you think has such great power to seal off all my information while being so secretive?" Nathaniel's expression suddenly changed when he heard this.

"No! It's impossible."

After hearing, Tristan's lips curled up slightly.

"You're only saying this because Master Mo is your good brother. Maybe he will continue to be your comrade now, but do you think he will always be loyal to you once he's in a superior position than us?" "Tristan Acker!"

Nathaniel shouted at him, and then he looked around before saying, "I'll help you hack into the system to have a look. If it's really as you guessed..."

"What do you think?"

Tristan looked at Nathaniel, and the corner of his lips raised into an evil smile. Hence, Nathaniel couldn't help but feel distressed.

Then, Nathaniel narrowed his eyes and muttered, "If so, I will protect you with my life."

Tristan suddenly feared up when he heard this.

He quickly blinked his tears back and said in a hoarse voice, "Are you crazy? If you protect me with your life, what about my sister? What about my nephews?" "Mango will protect you like I do."

Nathaniel patted Tristan on the shoulder before answering.

He usually argued with Tristan, and there were times that he hated the latter. However, Tristan was still his brother, Mango's older brother, so he was his family.

Right now, Nathaniel was no longer alone because of Mango, and he had become the father of the three children. He had his in-laws, his grandfather, and his brother-in-law with him. Hence, he viewed them as their close family and the people he vowed to protect with his own life.

Although Nathaniel didn't say these words, Tristan understood the meaning behind them. Hence, he felt emotional and touched by his kindhearted gesture.

He had lived for almost 30 years, but no man had treated him this well. Hence, he was so touched that he almost feared up.

"Alright, perhaps I'm just overthinking and making stupid guesses. Anyways, be careful and don't let anyone notice. I'll feel guilty if you get involved in the troubles."

"Don't worry."

Nathaniel smiled lightly in reply.

After that, he took out his laptop and contacted

Zion.

"Zion, help me out."

Zion was asleep, but Nathaniel had woken him up. When he heard how serious Nathaniel was and the surroundings that the latter was in, he immediately became energized. "Alright."

Zion quickly turned on his computer as well.

Both of them were father and son, so they cooperated well with each other.

"Help me bypass some firewalls and hack into these systems while hiding your real location."

Nathaniel typed quickly.

Zion nodded in reply after receiving this message.

Although he didn't know what Nathaniel wanted to do, he still obeyed the latter's orders no matter what they were.

Both of them were collaborating well in different rooms. Their hands seemed to be alive as they typed rapidly on the keyboard. Furthermore, codes kept flashing on the screen, so Tristan couldn't help but be amazed.

He was one of the best experts in the field of medicine. However, he was seriously lacking in terms of computer science. Hence, he had to admit that he was inferior to Nathaniel in this field.

Heck! Even Zion, his nephew, was more intelligent than him!

Well, why did he feel so upset about this?

On the other hand, Nathaniel didn't care about what Tristan was thinking. Instead, he quickly found the secret documents that the country kept. His heart tightened when he noticed the remark on the folder with Tristan's name on it.

Could Tristan's assumption be true?

At this thought, Nathaniel suddenly felt pressured.

As long as he clicked on this document, the answer would be crystal clear. But was he ready to go against his superiors if it was true?

Furthermore, Tristan had devoted his youth to passionately serving the country's military since the age of eighteen. Even if he was in Angolla, he still fought for the honor of his own country. If his guess was accurate now, could he accept it?

Nathaniel's fingers were slightly trembling as he thought about this.

Meanwhile, Tristan was also nervous.

He couldn't believe his eyes as this was something he failed to find out even with all his efforts.

"Nathaniel, let's forget about it." Tristan was breaking out in cold sweat as he said this. Perhaps he was afraid that he couldn't bear it. In short, he was very nervous, and he wanted to give up at this moment. Upon hearing this, Nathaniel breathed a sigh of relief. But at the same time, he also knew that this matter would inevitably become trouble to Tristan if he did not speak out. After all, no one knew the consequences if someone with bad intentions decided to use this information.

At this thought, Nathaniel took a deep breath and suddenly pressed the key with his finger.
