The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1599

Tristan knew that he had seen Rainie before. It seemed that they have met each other once during the time he was carrying out one of his mission.

Back then, Rainie had been abandoned in the cemetery, and she had a scared expression on her face. He wanted to save her, but he was on a mission. Therefore, he was unable to help her out. He gave her a phone number and introduced himself. When the mission was over, he learned that she didn't call for help. He realised that it might be because Rainie had no phone with her.

How could she not ask for help if she had a phone?

Unfortunately, he hadn't thought it through at that time.

Had Rainie been sick since then?

Alas! He felt sorry for her.

He frowned as he looked at the unknown information in the blood report.

It wasn't a disease but poison!

She had consumed a poison that would destroy her body slowly.

Who on earth poisoned her?

Was it her husband?

His frown deepened at this thought. Then, he decided to leave.

"Tristan."

Mango had been waiting at the door the entire time, and she stood up anxiously when she saw Tristan coming out. On the contrary, Rainie wasn't curious at all. She took a glance before lowering her head and played with her phone. It was as if she didn't care about her illness at all.

Finally, Rainie raised her head and looked at Tristan. After that, she asked with a confused expression, "Is there something wrong with my body?"

"No."

Tristan was a little stunned, and he decided to stop himself from telling the truth.

However, Mango noticed something strange about his behaviour.

"Tristan, are you really okay?"

"I'm fine, it's just that I haven't had a good rest recently, so my body isn't feeling quite well recently. Don't worry, I just need to treat myself slightly."

Tristan reassured Mango while he rubbed her head affectionately. Well, Nathaniel would definitely get agitated if he were to see this. At this thought, Tristan rubbed Mango's hair again and even messed it up. "Hey! Tristan!"

Mango stared at him speechlessly, causing him to break out into laughter.

Rainie suddenly thought of Denver when she noticed their interaction. Suddenly, she wondered how Denver was doing right now.

On the other hand, Mango didn't want to argue with Tristan anymore. Then, she took Rainie with her and left.

"Let's go eat something delicious."

"Don't eat too much, alright? Her body is quite weak now."

As Tristan said these words plainly, Mango finally realised something.

"Tristan, shall we have a chat first?"

"What about your friend?"

"I'm going out for a walk."

Rainie acted as if she was not involved in this. She directly voiced her opinion and patted Mango's hand before leaving.

As Rainie left, the smile on Mango's face gradually vanished.

"Do you know Rainie from before?"

"How did you know?"

Tristan led her into the laboratory and locked the door. Finally, he felt relieved.

Mango wasn't an idiot. When she saw what Tristan was doing, her heart couldn't help but stop a little.

"About Rainie...."

"She was poisoned."

Tristan's words were

"Poisoned? How did that happen?"

"Well, that's what I saw from the components in her blood. From the look of it, she must've know about it."

Upon hearing his words, Mango disagreed immediately.

"That's impossible! If Rainie knew that she was poisoned, how could she not say anything?"

"But do you think she looks worried?"

Mango was stunned as she recalled all of Rainie's actions.

He was right. Rainie wouldn't have acted so calm if she didn't know about it in the first place.

"What the hell is going on?" "How poisonous is the blood?" "It's not fatal, but it makes her cough blood and feel stuffy in the chest. However, it would still be harmful in the long run. Despite so, she still benefited from it."

Tristan looked at Mango and explained, "She was infertile due to a condition known as hypomenorrhea, and she took some medicine for treatment. Surprisingly, the poison was able to eradicate this condition as an effect. I think becoming a mother wouldn't be a problem anymore."

"What?"

Mango was ecstatic when she heard this.

"Are you serious?"

"Why would I lie to you? However, this poison is a rare poison that will harm her slowly, but it does not hurt the body very much. This is unexpected. Who has she come into contact with recently?" Tristan was interested in the poison.

Mango shook her head and thought for a moment before saying, "Hmm, no one actually. It's just a young guy called Braiden Jenkins. Could he be the one giving her the medicine?" "I don't know."

Tristan felt a little drowsy after he finished speaking.

He stretched his back and said with a smile, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back first. Priscilla is about to wake up.'

"

"Wait a second, Tristan. Have you met Rainie previously?"

Mango couldn't help but ask at the thought of their strange interaction just now.

Upon hearing this, Tristan simply told Mango about what happened during his previous mission. After hearing this, Mango was stunned.

"Rainie was trapped in the cemetery, and you met her there?"

"I had an urgent task on hand so I just gave her a phone number. However, I didn't realize that she didn't have a phone with her."

It had been many years since this happened. Hence, Tristan was really embarrassed now that he thought about it,

Meanwhile, Mango was left speechless.

It seemed that Rainie was telling the truth when she said that Tristan's name sounded familiar.

Mango could have never imagined how fate worked in wondrous ways. It was amazing how fate could brought them together after years. Then, Mango walked out of the lab and found Rainie walking under the sunlight. She was looking much calmer compared to before.

At the thought of her conversation with Tristan just now, Mango took a deep breath and sat down beside her.

When Rainie felt that someone was sitting next to her, she turned her head slightly and smiled sweetly at Mango. 'Are you here?"

"Do you know that you were poisoned?"

Suddenly, Mango couldn't understand Rainie's thoughts and actions.

Her gut feeling even told her that Rainie had poisoned herself instead.

Sure enough, Rainie paused for a moment. She then smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that your cousin has told you everything."

"Why did you do this? Who gave you the poison?"

Mango was suddenly mad. She pulled Rainie up and growled, "Do you know that's poison? You'll die if this continues! Do you get it?"

"I understand, but being alive was far worse than death."

Rainie seemed to be relieved as she said this. She looked at Mango with tears welling up in her eyes.

"Mango, I know I couldn't hide it from you. From the moment you asked Tristan to treat me, I knew

I couldn't hide it anymore. But I didn't intend to hurt you." "What? How could you take your life this lightly? Rainie, you shouldn't risk your life for anyone else! Not me nor Denver, and not even Thomas." Mango roared, and her tears suddenly gushed out.

Her intuition told her that Rainie had done this because of Thomas.
