The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 1579
Although Mango didn't know what happened to Rainie, she couldn't figure it out either. After clearing her thoughts and as she heard that Walter and the others had returned, she gathered her energy and walked out of the room.
Nathaniel saw that she didn't look too good and stepped forward to ask, "What's wrong? Did you quarrel with Rainie?"
After asking, he felt that it was unlikely.
Everyone knew how close Rainie was with Mango. How could they quarrel with each other? Moreover, there was no reason for them to quarrel.
Mango shook her head and asked softly, "Do you think there is such a thing as being reborn in this world?"
"Have you read too much?"
Nathaniel's subconscious reply caused Mango to pause.
"Do you think it's impossible?"
"There are all kinds of strange things in the world. But regarding something as surreal as being reborn, it only exists in novels. Are you telling me you met someone reborn?" Nathaniel's words enlightened Mango.
"So, there's no such thing as being reborn at all! She was lying to me!"
"Who? Rainie? She said she was reborn?"
Nathaniel quickly understood why Mango didn't look good. He couldn't help but say...
"Was she too into her film character? Reborn? Why didn't she just say she had resurrected from the dead or that she came from heaven?"
Mango glared at Nathaniel in disgust.
"Don't say that about Rainie. She must have her difficulties for doing this."
"This is called a show, not a difficulty! Don't tell me that she said the same thing to Thomas too?"
Nathaniel was quick witted. Mango didn't want to admit it, but she saw how Nathaniel understood everything so soon, and she was rendered helpless.
"Zion and Desmond are back. Let's deal with this matter first."
"Their matter is not urgent."
When Nathaniel heard that it had something to do with Thomas, he grabbed Mango's arm and asked, "Did Rainie say the same thing to Thomas?" "Let the couple solve their own problem. Don't interfere!"
Mango stopped Nathaniel with this reply.
To be honest, she was really afraid that Nathaniel would do something to Rainie.
Nathaniel sneered and said, "What would you do if Thomas was the one who did this?"
Mango was silent.
If Thomas was the one who gave such a weird excuse, she would definitely beat him up. So she understood how Nathaniel felt.
"Thomas said he would solve it himself."
"Rainie had better not fall in love with someone else. Otherwise, even if Thomas forgives her, I won't."
"That won't happen."
Mango hurriedly replied.
She knew Rainie well, and she was not a fickle-minded person.
Nathaniel snorted coldly and said, "The entertainment industry is complicated. If it hadn't been for Thomas protecting her, do you think her career would have progressed so smoothly? Now she even made up the strange excuse of being reborn. When everything here is over, you should go over to B City and see what Rainie is up to in person."
"Got it."
Mango was afraid that Nathaniel would do something else, so she quickly took his hand and dragged him outside.
Dennis and Queena were already outside. When they saw Mango and Nathaniel, they gave a slight nod.
"Desmond's identity is special, so we've decided to pick him up personally. If possible, we'll arrange a place for him at Dark Forest."
Mango and Nathaniel disagreed with Dennis' suggestion.
"Dad, we know what you and Mom are thinking. But since Tristan has the medicine to suppress Desmond's rage, we don't think he needs to return to Dark Forest. After all, there are higher-ups over there. If Desmond goes back now, no one knows if he'll be treated like an ordinary person. We can't take this risk."
Mango was the one who said these, but Nathaniel had the same thought.
Queena glanced at Dennis. She was afraid that if the father and daughter had a disagreement, she would be put in a difficult spot.
Dennis said in a low voice, "Alright. Lebanon's people are on guard here too, so there shouldn't be any problem. The higher-ups wouldn't suspect anything either."
Mango was slightly stunned.
She had the impression that Dennis had always been very loyal to the higher-ups. Apart from Tristan's case, nothing else could shake his beliefs. She was surprised that he would compromise this time. Even Queena was stunned for a moment.
Nathaniel smiled and said, "Thank you for your understanding, dad."
"You're welcome. Since we can't let the higher-ups know, let's not go. Otherwise, it'll attract attention. Both of you should be careful on the way. The medicine from Tristan is with Lebanon. Bring the captain of the guards along and give Desmond the medicine the moment you see him to avoid any trouble."
"All right."
Mango nodded and headed out with Nathaniel.
Queena waited for them to leave before saying, "You're a little different today."
"How am I different?"
Dennis smiled gently and stroked Queena's head.
Queena felt a little embarrassed.
"We are an old couple. Others will laugh at what you just did." "We are not at Dark Forest. What is there to worry about? Besides, are you planning to stay at Dark Forest forever?" Queena was stunned upon hearing Dennis' words.
"What do you mean? Our duties and missions..."
"Without us, there will be others to take over. We are no longer young and have sacrificed a lot for the country throughout the years. It's time for us to retire."
Dennis finally expressed his thoughts.
Queena was completely stunned. After a long while, she finally recovered and her eyes were slightly moist.
"You have decided?"
She was a woman after all!
No woman liked leaving home and wandering around. But for the sake of the man she loved, she had no complaint. Now that she heard Dennis' desire to retire, her heart was filled with joy.
Brantley was not young anymore, and no one knew how many more years he had left. As his daughter, Quenna had not been by his side. If Queena could retire, maybe she could still spend time with him.
In the past, she didn't even dare to have such thoughts. Now, however, she saw a glimpse of hope. She could even use her free time to babysit Mango's children. Queena got excited at the thought of this.
Dennis could see the excitement in her eyes and said apologetically to her, "You have suffered so much in this life."
"As long as it's for you, it's all worth it. It's just that the higher-ups might not release you."
"Don't worry, there will be a way."
Dennis was quite optimistic.
As they showed their affection towards each other, Mango, Nathaniel, and the captain, on the other hand, had left the palace and were heading towards the port.
