The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1625

"Raise your head!"

Mango's voice was not loud, but it was strict and powerful.

The maid was stunned for a moment before quickly throwing the item in her hands at Mango.

Mango blocked the attack subconsciously and called out immediately.

"Guards! Stop that woman!"

The woman pushed the window open and ran away as the guards quickly chased after her.

Nathaniel and the others heard the commotion and rushed over quickly.

"What's wrong?"

He held Mango quickly and checked if she was injured carefully.

Mango shook her head and said, "I'm fine. Someone went to find Desmond just now, and I bumped into her."

"Desmond?"

When Nathaniel heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly. Rainie and Denver rushed out at this moment, and when they heard Mango's words, they were slightly stunned. "Was it Haniya?"

Rainie had already known the whole story, so she guessed that it was Haniya.

However, Mango shook her head.

"No, I know Haniya's height and figure. That woman's voice was hoarse, and her height and figure don't match with Haniya's."

"Who could it be?"

Everyone was confused who the woman was.

Meanwhile, when Lebanon heard that someone had sneaked into the palace, he strengthened the security. However, the servant seemed to have disappeared suddenly without any traces. "She must have left traces wherever she had been, but no one had noticed her and where she is. It's either that she lives in the palace, or she is very familiar with this place."

Walter's words were in favor of Nathaniel.

Meanwhile, Tristan frowned slightly.

"Desmond is basically fine now. Why did she come to find him? To check on his condition? Or to get something from him?"

"No matter what she is here for, Desmond needs to be transferred." Carlo said immediately, "He can come to my house. I don't believe that anyone dares to go there." Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Tristan smiled and said, "Sure. No one in Angolla dares to go to the Foster family unless they want to die."

"Why do you say that?"

Mango was a little curious.

Carlo said proudly, "Because we are poisoners."

"What?" Rainie asked.

Rainie didn't understand and asked him, which made Carlo's mouth twitch.

"You really are a typical celebrity. I'm talking about poison. My house is in a manor, and the entrance of our manor is full of plants. If you're not a member of our family, you'll pass out if you are three meters inside, and then you'll be poisoned."

Hearing Carlo's words, Mango's eyes widened.

"Is there something like that?"

"Of course. The Foster family is a century-old."

Looking at Carlo's smug look, Rainie was annoyed and couldn't help but say, "A century- old poisonous family? Are you sure?"

"Rainie, are you picking a fight?"

"Yes, what if I am? Come on! Now that there are two of us, try and hit me!"

Rainie said confidently as she stuck out her belly, which suddenly made Carlo regret it.

"I... I'm not competing with a pregnant woman."

"Humph! As if you can win me!"

Rainie and Carlo bickered as if no one was around and Mango was more or less surprised when she saw their interaction.

However, Nathaniel frowned a little.

Walter remembered that no one knew if Thomas was dead or alive now, and when he also saw Rainie and Carlo quarrel with each other, he suddenly felt a bit awkward.

"Hey, Carlo, how old are you? Are you married?"

Hearing Walter's question, Carlo couldn't help but be stunned, and then said with annoyance, "Why do I get asked this everywhere I go? Besides, do we even know each other that well to ask a question like that?"

"I don't think so. I just don't think it's good for you to be so close to a married woman."

Walter was straightforward and did not care much. Although at first he rejected Thomas and did not like him as a brother, after knowing what Thomas had been through and seeing everything that Thomas had done for Nathaniel, Walter acknowledged Thomas properly.

After all, he was a brother to him for several years, and now that Thomas was in danger, he could not help but feel a little annoyed when Thomas' wife was so close with another man.

Mango, Rainie and everyone there were all so shocked by Walter's provocation.

Deborah tugged at Walter and whispered, "What are you talking about?"

"I'm sorry."

Walter felt a little bad after he said that, especially when he met Rainie's surprised and sad eyes, he knew that he had been impulsive.

Maybe it was because that he was too worried about Thomas.

Now, he could not bear to see the woman Thomas loved bickering with another man cluelessly. But he also knew that it was not the time to tell Rainie about Thomas.

Carlo didn't know all this, so when he heard Walter's words, his face fell.

"What do you have to be sorry for? Are you even a gentleman? Don't you think before you talk? What century are we in? Can't men and women talk to or bicker a bit with each other now? What's wrong with me and Rainie? We are just friends. We are practically brothers, best friends. What's wrong with that? We were just talking and there's already something to gossip about? Do you dislike me? Or do you dislike Rainie? If you want to fight me, just say it."

Although Carlo usually acted casually, when he was serious, he had a powerful aura to him.

At first, Walter felt that what he said was a bit impulsive, but because he was worried about Thomas, he was a little angry. Now that he had apologized but Carlo had still refused to let go, the anger in his heart suddenly rose up.

"Fight? Can you even fight me?"

"Let's see!"

Just like that, the battle between the two was about to break out.

Although Rainie did not know what was up with Walter today, she did not want to cause any trouble on Lebanon's big day, so she quickly stepped forward and pulled Carlo back.

"Are you mad? How can you fight him? You may not even be able to beat him even if there were three of you."

This sounded normal, but it was unpleasant to Walter's ears, so he said, "We haven't even started and you're already protecting him?"

"Walter Song!"

When Deborah saw that he was getting ridiculous, she pulled Walter back and said to Rainie sheepishly with a smile, "I'm sorry, he drank too much today."

"Oh, did he, then? You can spurt nonsense all you want, right? Walter, what's up with you? Did I offend you? Or did I do something to you? You kept accusing and talking bad about me the whole day. What's wrong? Is there something about me that doesn't fit your liking?"

Rainie's face sank too, and her two eyes glared at Walter fiercely. At that moment, the atmosphere in the hall was suffocating and oppressive.
