The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 1616
Rainie kicked open Carlo's door and happened to see a few people in Carlo's room, who seemed to be having a meeting. When they saw Rainie come in, they were all confused. "What's wrong? Is something up?"
Carlo didn't think it was anything. After all, he had seen Rainie's even more barbaric appearance.
Rainie tried her best to suppress her anger and put away the fruit knife, but she still looked at Carlo coldly and asked, "What did you do last night?"
"Mr. Foster spent the entire night analyzing the drug's effects with us."
One of the men answered for Carlo and looked at him and Rainie gossipily.
Rainie was very famous as she was a celebrity, so it was really puzzling that she suddenly entered Carlo's room with a fruit knife.
"He was here the whole night?"
Rainie'er couldn't help but pause.
Only then did Carlo realize that something was wrong with her.
"Did something happen? Wait for me. Let's go out
and talk."
Carlo stood up and walked towards Rainie.
His body reeked of the smell of cigarettes, which was a little pungent.
Rainie suddenly frowned.
"Why did you smoke so much?"
"Please, I stayed up all night. How could I have stayed awake if I didn't?"
It was then when Rainie saw the red blood in Carlo's eyes, and the bruises in the corners of his eyes were clearly visible. When she thought of the man's words just now, she frowned immediately.
It wasn't Carlo!
The man last night smelled clean and refreshing, which was very similar to the shower gel Thomas used to use.
Just then, Rainie felt even more upset when she realized that she was thinking of Thomas again.
"Can I have a look at the surveillance footages?"
"Did something happen? Do you need my help?"
Rainie refused Carlo's offer directly. "No."
"I'll give the security department a heads up. Go ahead." "Thank you."
Rainie turned around and left, throwing the fruit knife away.
Carlo felt a little inexplicable, and thinking of his research last night, he couldn't help shaking his head. He forced himself to sober up for a moment, then went back to his room and continued. Rainie went to the security office and looked at the surveillance, but she did not find anything. The footage was already deleted by someone.
There seemed to be a lump in her heart, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
Not only did she cheat, she didn't even know who the man was!
D*mn it!
Rainie could not stay any longer. Soon, after returning home, she locked herself in the bathroom and washed her skin aggressively.
On the other hand, after learning that she had left, Carlo inquired about what she wanted to look for. After hearing that surveillance footage had been deleted, Carlo's intuition told him that something was not right. Then, he quickly found someone to repair it, but failed.
Meanwhile, Mango and Nathaniel had spent their entire day at the automobile workshop and had originally planned on having dinner together, but Nathaniel received a call. After hanging up, his expression was a little unfathomable.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"Yes, I have something personal to deal with."
Nathaniel looked apologetically at Mango.
Mango said gently, "Go ahead. I'll have dinner myself. I'll go check on Rainie too. Thomas did give her a huge blow."
"Alright."
After Nathaniel sent Mango to Rainie's home, Mango sent him off.
Then, Nathaniel drove to a very secret clubhouse and parked the car. When he was at the entrance, he took out a card, and the person at the door led him in respectfully.
He walked towards the room at the end, knocked on the door, and went in.
When he saw Morgan and Noah, Nathaniel was not surprised. He sat down casually and poured himself a cup of tea as he said lightly, "What brings you two here?" "We came to see you."
Noah was still a sweet talker, and Nathaniel could tell that Noah was not affected by Susan's downfall.
Nathaniel rolled his eyes at him and turned to look
at Morgan.
"Morgan, is there a mission here?"
"I came here to pick someone up. After that, I'll be on my way."
When Nathaniel heard this, he was a little stunned. Since he was no longer in the military, he would not inquire about things that he shouldn't ask about. So he said, "Is it alright for me to stay here? If it's not, I'll get going."
"You know this person."
Seeing that Nathaniel was behaving so well, Noah couldn't help feeling a little sad.
They used to be the best brothers, who were able to leave their backs to the other. But now, because of some things, Nathaniel had separated himself from them, and this really made him feel very upset. "Nathaniel, are you sure you don't want to come back?"
"My business has begun to transfer abroad. In the future, we can still get together when we have time."
On the other hand, Nathaniel didn't mind.
A good friendship would not be changed by time and distance, and it was only a temporary disappointment.
Morgan nodded and said, "He's coming. It's rare for us to get together like this, so let's enjoy ourselves tonight. We won't know when we'll meet again."
"Who on earth is he?"
Nathaniel's curiosity was aroused by Morgan's words.
As they were talking, the door was pushed open. When Thomas appeared in front of them, Nathaniel was slightly stunned. Then, he immediately understood, but his face was a little solemn. Thomas was not surprised to see Nathaniel here too. When he saw Nathaniel, he stood at attention and saluted. Then, he called, "Mr. Ye."
"Does Rainie know?"
Nathaniel stared at Thomas, not showing any expression on his face.
Thomas looked a little depressed and sad, but there was also a hint of determination in his eyes.
"She will find out sooner or later."
After saying this, Nathaniel said nothing, but Morgan started to explain slowly.
"Thomas is an outstanding talent. When he had asked for retirement back then, the superiors had thought it was a pity too. Both of you gave up your bright futures for women, and in many people's eyes, your lack of determination was only temporary. Therefore, when they let you go, they didn't do it completely and always left your spots open. As long as you want to come back, you can do it any time. Hearing that something had happened to Thomas, Master Mo called the military and told them immediately, so he was released this morning. And as for Emory, someone will handle it later. Thomas will leave soon, and he will go abroad for a peacekeeping mission. He has to train for several years, so we really don't know when you will see him again. But for Thomas, this may be a good thing. I heard that he left his ex-wife everything, and now that he has no family burdens either, he may have a lot of room to improve his career, and maybe his achievements will be higher than yours by then."
Nathaniel did not speak, but looked at Thomas and asked, "You were released in the morning. Have you gone to see Rainie?"
Thomas was a little stunned when he heard that, but he quickly lowered his head and whispered, "Mr. Ye, if I stay here, it will be torture to her and me. She doesn't know what to do when she looks at me. Instead of torturing her like this, I should leave. As time goes by, she will let it go eventually. I am a jerk. I won't ask for her forgiveness, but I also know that we don't have a chance anymore." "You coward!"
After Nathaniel said these two words, he got up abruptly and left.
