The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 1581
Nathaniel knew that Mango was worried about Walter when he saw how restless and unsettled she was. When no one was around, he leaned on her and whispered into her ear, "Walter will be alright. Jameson did not travel abroad solely because of his rheumatoid arthritis, but I'm sure this isn't his main intention. I heard that he went there for some business matter. It seems that Jameson will hand over his family business to Walter. This was why he brought him along to gain experience and hang out with Deborah. Don't overthink about it."
Upon hearing Nathaniel's words, Mango was stunned.
"How do you know about this?"
"I've already sent someone to check it out before they came."
Mango couldn't help but ask again, "Are you investigating Jameson? Aren't you afraid..."
"If Walter never passed information to me from inside, do you think I could send a spy into the Grey family?"
After hearing Nathaniel's words, Mango immediately understood what was going on.
Well, if this was really Walter's order. It seemed that she needed to respect her cousin's decision.
Meanwhile, they had sent Desmond into the palace. Although Tristan didn't want to get up from Priscilla's bed, he still got dressed when he thought of how Desmond was in an emergency. He was also worried about the adverse reaction that Desmond could experience after taking medicine.
Suddenly, Priscilla hugged him from behind while rubbing her curvy body against him. Upon seeing this, he really didn't want to leave.
"Stop it! Desmond is still waiting!"
"Well, come back early after you finish."
Priscilla was somewhat reluctant.
It had been almost two years, and Tristan was finally by her side again. It made her feel so surreal. She was even afraid that Tristan would disappear once she opened her eyes. Also, she could only feel assured as long as he felt his presence and touched his hand.
After all, Tristan obviously knew what she was thinking. He patted her hand and said lovingly, "I promise I'll come back as soon as I'm done."
"Kiss me."
Priscilla pouted childishly while saying this.
Upon seeing this, Tristan could never bear to refuse here.
He pressed her against the bed and kissed her deeply. Right now, he wanted nothing more than to spend the rest of his life with her.
Just when Priscilla felt a bit out of breath, she heard Tristan whisper, "I'll be back soon."
After that, he went out.
Priscilla was disappointed, and the feeling of loneliness instantly engulfed her.
She crossed her arms and thought for a moment before she got out of bed. Only then did she realize how sore her legs were. Hence, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl into a smile. Indeed, Tristan was really as bold and fierce man.
On the other hand, Mango was taken aback when she saw Tristan. She thought he would be busy now, but she knew that he was satisfied after looking at his expression.
"Hey, Desmond took the medicine that you gave him, and now, it's in the experiment room."
"I'll go and check up on him, so you should stay here and wait."
After all, he was not clear about what would happen. Therefore, all he could do was minimise the risks that would happen.
Mango nodded. Of course, Nathaniel did not want Mango to enter either.
Lebanon was a little worried. He was concerned about what Tristan would do to Desmond too. Also, Mango was seen carrying her son back into the room, so Lebanon felt uneasy and appointed a doctor to check up on Zion. Both Mango and Nathaniel were relieved when they found out that Zion was experiencing motion sickness.
After that, Zion finally felt much better after a night's rest. However, he still looked pale. Hence, Lebanon had someone serve some porridge for him, while Mango had always taken care of him.
On the other hand, Nathaniel was neglected after what happened to Zion. Upon seeing this, Dennis took this opportunity to ask Nathaniel out.
"What can I do for you?"
"I heard that Eugene had taken care of the matter, and he is now working together with the higher-ups. However, you shouldn't come forward, and you should just pretend that you don't know about it. After all, Eugene has already told them that you weren't involved in this matter, so you should stay out of it too."
Although Nathaniel was stunned by what Dennis had said, he still nodded.
"Alright." Once Dennis knew that his son-in-law had taken his advice, he finally looked at the latter deeply.
In fact, Dennis wasn't around when Mango married Nathaniel. Back then, he didn't know that Mango was his daughter. Therefore, he didn't have much impression of Nathaniel, who was now his son-in-law. Right now, he was rather satisfied with his daughter's relationship. However, he was angry and felt heartache when he heard that Mango had suffered a ton because of Nathaniel.
"Treat Mango better from now on, and don't you dare let her suffer the same way she did in the past. Otherwise, please don't blame me for being mean to you. She has the entire family backing her up now." "Dad, what happened was my fault. I promise you that it won't happen again."
Nathaniel knew that Dennis was warning him, so he quickly admitted his mistake.
Upon seeing Nathaniel's good attitude, Dennis sighed and said, "I know I should not intervene in the affairs of your Ye Family, but it's still related to my daughter and grandson. Thus, I just wanna advise you on this."
"Go ahead, dad."
Dennis was pleased when he saw Nathaniel's apologetic expression.
"Well, I know that your family has a large fortune, and you have no intention of leaving Ocean City. But will you expand your property abroad? Or even migrate? Lebanon is the king of Angolla, and Eugene is the head of another country. If you're planning on investing, it's good if you build connections with these influential figures."
Nathaniel knew what Dennis was trying to say after hearing what the latter had said.
After all, Dennis wanted him to be careful of people with bad intentions, mainly because he had an influential household background and assets.
The Ye Family had been thrown in the limelight, and they were also the owner of Longford County. Although the mining vein belonged to the country and Nathaniel also cooperated with mining, Longford County was part of the industry. Also, raising vermin was a bit mysterious, and the Hans and the Xiao family were involved too. Therefore, he was somehow worried too.
What happened to Zion was an excellent example of this. No one would pay much attention to him if they were from an ordinary family.
Thinking of this, Nathaniel really began to think about transferring the property.
Dennis saw that he was thinking about it, so he said in a low voice, "I know that you have a good relationship with Master Mo, and now you are helping him with some issues. But let's not talk about whether Master Mo can become the leader. Since ancient times, the higher- ups' positions have been all single. I don't care what kind of master plan you're crafting, but don't you dare involve Mango and your children in it. I have decided to withdraw, so your uncle will be the only one left in the Hans family in the future. Although the head of the Xiao family is prestigious, there will have no heir after a hundred years. All the other families can expand, but the Ye family is prime. Therefore, we are still at the point where old and new ideas are clashing, so you have to think carefully."
After saying that, Dennis patted Nathaniel on the shoulder and left, leaving Nathaniel in deep thought as his eyes darkened.
