The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1497

"Ding." Nathaniel just opened the document when the computer gave out a warning sound. Following this, Zion's anxious voice could be heard.

"Mr. Ye, this document has initiated selfdestruction. You only have 25 seconds before your file will be destroyed automatically. It may even destroy your computer." Nathaniel's expression changed when he heard Zion's words.

Tristan's heart skipped a beat.

How important was the document that it had a self-destructing system?

And this document was related to him, so...

Tristan's mood was complicated.

Nathaniel did not care about anything else. He quickly used the remaining 20 seconds to copy and transfer the document.

When it was almost completed, the computer in front of Nathaniel exploded with a bang.

Tristan protected Nathaniel at that crucial moment. Then, they fell to the ground together so that they wouldn't get injured.

"Zion, how are you?"

Nathaniel quickly called Zion to ask.

Zion quickly said, "I'm fine."

Nathaniel finally felt relieved.

The defence system was automatically turned on because of the explosion and the alarm was triggered everywhere.

Tristan said with a wry smile, "It's over. Uncle will kill us."

"He'll kill you, but I'll be fine."

Nathaniel stood up after saying that.

Tristan asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"

Nathaniel said as he walked out, "It means that you wanted to invade the top-secret document of the country, which made your computer blow up. I just happened to be here." "What do you mean?"

By the time Tristan understood, he saw Nathaniel opening the door and running out before the door was slammed shut.

"Damn it!"

Tristan seldom felt so depressed and he would never let Nathaniel go.

"I was so touched just now, but it turned out that he's just a liar!" Tristan was wondering if it was still too late to go out when he heard Nathaniel's voice coming from outside. "Dad, what's going on? Did something explode?"

Tristan was appalled when he heard that.

How could Nathaniel act as if he was unaware of everything?

Tristan didn't expect that Nathaniel would be so good at scheming against others.

Dennis and Queena rushed over. When they saw Nathaniel outside and the explosion was in Tristan's room, they couldn't help but frown. The look in Dennis' eyes was very complicated. "Ask everyone to turn off their safety systems. They don't have to stay here any longer. Nathan, come in."

Dennis quickly gave orders and walked into the room with Queena and Nathaniel.

Tristan smiled awkwardly and glared at Nathaniel.

Dennis whispered, "Nathan, close the door."

"Alright."

Nathaniel quickly locked the door.

After they sat down, Dennis looked at Tristan and the complicated look in his eyes made Tristan a little embarrassed.

"Uncle, I..."

"When did you find out?"

Dennis asked directly.

Tristan was slightly stunned. When he knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, he whispered, "When I gave the blood transfusion to Desmond."

Dennis sighed and said, "You are quite alert. I didn't know that you had done so many things under my nose. It seems that it's understandable why the higher-ups think highly of you."

His words made Tristan's body stiffen suddenly.

He was particularly sensitive to these words.

Dennis looked at him and said in a low voice, "Don't be nervous. It's not what you think. The country doesn't intend to train you to be an assassin. You're the son of the Hans family. Besides this matter, the government would use everything they have to protect you. However, they were also studying the composition of your blood and you would become a useful agent for the country. Of course, you would need to be willing to do this because they wouldn't force you. I wasn't going to let you know. But now that both of you have destroyed all the confidential documents, there's nothing left to hide. After all, from the moment the explosion occurred, all traces of the information about your blood was wiped out."

Dennis glanced at Nathaniel after saying this, which made the latter feel a little embarrassed.

Dennis clearly mentioned both of them, so it meant that he knew Nathaniel's involvement in the matter as well.

Nathaniel even thought he was smart to escape the situation.

He said awkwardly, "Dad, I am afraid that Tristan would overthink..."

"You even dared to intrude into the national security system. You are getting bolder than before."

Dennis glanced at him. Although he didn't scold Nathaniel, his voice was harsh.

Nathaniel quickly apologized. "Dad, I know I'm wrong."

Nathaniel was one of the four most powerful heirs in Ocean City but he apologized like a child in front of Dennis, which made Tristan feel much better.

"Do you think I wouldn't know about your antics? Everyone in the entire military region knows that you're a computer genius. Do you think I can get into the safety system by myself without your help? I don't think so."

Tristan finally found an opportunity to target Nathaniel.

Nathaniel glanced at him coldly and he gave up justifying his actions.

When Tristan saw Nathaniel's contemptuous eyes, he suddenly wanted to beat him up.

When Dennis saw the interaction between the two of them, he suddenly felt relieved. Nathaniel was also doing it for Tristan's sake, so how could Dennis get angry at them?

"Alright, don't both of you feel tired after causing so much trouble? Let's clean up this place and get some rest. Nathan, you don't have to talk to Mango about this. Don't make her worried."

"All right."

Nathaniel nodded.

Dennis looked at Tristan and said slowly, "Tristan, you are the son of the Hans family. Although they've taught you that the country is as important as family, the Hans family will not sit back and watch if someone really hurts you even if that person is the leader. Don't worry, your health is all right. Although your blood has mutated into a rare blood type, it has no effect on you. Maybe after you have children, your rare blood type will be passed down and it will eventually become a registered blood type. You are different from Desmond. It doesn't matter if I tell you about what happened in the past." Then, Dennis told Tristan about what happened.

Nathaniel felt that Laborn was really insignificant. If Laborn wasn't dead now, Nathaniel would definitely let him experience how it felt to be an experimental subject.

Only then did Tristan know the secret of his body.

"So does that mean that the toxins in my body were neutralized?"

"Yes."

Tristan's eyes suddenly flashed with excitement.

"Does that mean that Desmond's blood can be neutralized as well? My blood has some use, but it's not enough to neutralize the aggressive toxins in his body. However, it can make him fall asleep. If you know what I was poisoned with back then, can you extract the toxins in Desmond's body to suppress or neutralize them?"

Tristan was very excited when he was discussing about his field of expertise.

Dennis smiled and said, "I'm afraid you have to ask your father about this."

"What do you mean?"

Tristan paused for a moment before he understood.

Back then, Laborn injected the poison into Barack's body. When Magnolia and Barack were in a relationship, the poison was passed down to their children. Therefore...

"Does my dad still have this toxin in his body?"

"Probably. I heard that he is in poor health and he has been receiving treatment in Santell Capital, but the effect is minimal. Moreover, your father's heart has been damaged. During this period of time, their main focus was to treat his heart, so you need to go and see his physical condition in person."

Tristan suddenly felt a little sad when he heard Dennis' words.

His parents' life was too rough. As a son, he could hardly do anything to help them.

"But over here..."

"Your Eldest Aunt and I are here. Why don't you return to the Santell Capital with Mango and Nathan? Besides, we really don't have much contact with the outside world here. You still need to investigate a lot of things like your grandmother's identity and Liu Feng's whereabouts."

Dennis sighed and said, "Although we have set up a trap for Liu Feng and sent a few teams into the central area of the Dark Forest to search Desmond's whereabouts, no further actions have been taken. Either he has noticed our plan, or he has been caught up in something else. I don't have a constant signal here, and I have to block the signal occasionally. In order to protect those mutated races, we can't be invaded and discovered, so there are many things that are beyond our abilities. You can check the world news in the next two days, and maybe you can find clues."

Nathaniel could not help but ask when he heard this, "Mom and Dad, why don't both of you go back with us?"

"It's not the right time yet. We'll go back when this matter is completely over. Right now, our priority is to protect this place. We'll leave everything to you."

Tristan nodded.

Nathaniel accompanied Dennis and Queena back to their room. When he heard Queena's words, he said, "Nathan, I know that you will protect Mango well, but she's now in a bad mood. Don't argue with her." "I won't. In fact, Mango doesn't have to suffer like this, but she did it for me."

Nathaniel's heart ached when he thought of this.

Queena smiled and said, "Since she is willing to give birth to your children, it means that she's deeply in love with you. I know that you've always treated Mango well. I just hope that the rest of your life can go on smoothly and safely."

"Yes, I will."

Nathaniel smiled and left Dennis' room.

He had never been in such a rush to see Mango before.

The more they experienced, the more they cherished each other's feelings. He wondered how many times had they met in their past lives and what made them love each other so much regardless of the hardships?

Nathaniel couldn't wait to return to his bedroom. When he saw Mango sitting in bed while she read a book, all of his anxiety vanished and he felt exceptionally peaceful.

"Honey, I'm back."

Nathaniel whispered before walking forward to embrace Mango and her faint scent brought a happy smile to his face.
