The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 1746

It was Sissaye!

Evangeline had dealt with Sissaye for so many years, so she knew what kind of engine her car was. It was too late to leave now, but what would happen to Zion if she met Sissaye?

For a moment, she was a little anxious. She even thought about whether she should do it or not.

Suddenly, a pair of slender fingers gently grasped her wrist.

Evangeline looked back and heard Zion say, "Stay in my room. Don't come out without my word."

"But..."

"Be obedient!"

Zion's soft words immediately stopped Evangeline from speaking.

She looked at Zion and quickly went upstairs to Zion's room. Zion quickly got up and packed up what Evangeline had eaten.

As soon as he sat down, Sissaye hurried in.

When he saw Zion sitting on the sofa and reading the military news, her flushed face softened a little.

"Zion."

She said to Zion.

Zion did not speak or look back. He was still focused on watching TV.

Only then did Sissaye realize that Zion's ears had yet to recover.

Evangeline hid in Zion's room and listened secretly. Although she knew that she was wrong, she was still worried.

Now that she saw that Zion was still pretending not to hear her, she suddenly felt a little happy.

This was a secret between her and Zion.

This feeling was really good.

Sissaye didn't know that someone else was there. She went to Zion and turned off the TV.

Only then did Zion look at her.

"What's the matter?"

"Zion, I heard from my dad that someone broke your sniper when you were out on a mission, didn't you? Why didn't you tell me? Why you don't want to inform me? Because of the deviation of the front sight, you accidentally injured the hostage, didn't you? Why didn't you explain? Besides, why did you erase the trace of Evangeline's appearance on the scene? Do you know that you can't cover up the news? Now that you are exposed, you are very likely to be punished or even expelled from the military! Is it worth it for Evangeline? Besides, she is not from our country. She appeared on the scene..."

"It's worth it!"

Zion did not wait for Sissaye to finish speaking before replying. However, these words stabbed into Sissaye's chest like sharp blades.

Her eyes instantly became moist.

"Huh? Is it worth it to take off this military uniform for her?"

"Yes."

Zion nodded with a firm look in his eyes.

Sissaye suddenly couldn't stand up anymore. She took two steps back and burst into tears, but she held back her tears.

"Why? Which part of me is inferior to her? We grew up together, and I know better than anyone how much you love the military region. Why does it have to be her? Can you give up your dream for her? Have you ever thought that her appearance at the scene may very well be harmful to our country?"

"Just because of her identity?"

Zion had heard the most of these days that Evangeline was not a citizen of this country. She might be at a disadvantage to the country. These words sounded harsh every time he heard them, but others kept talking about it. Zion couldn't help frowning.

"Isn't her identity enough to explain everything? Evangeline is from Y Country!"

"So what? I believe in her! I believe that she will not hurt me and the country! I also believe that one day the country will really be in trouble, and she will protect the country like me! Because this is her second hometown! Because of the moral standing of Uncle Sanchez and Aunt Xiao! Because I believe in the Sanchez family's manners and virtue!"

Zion's words hit Sissaye on the spot and made Evangeline's blood boil.

Since the day she knew her identity, there had been many people who seemed to be good to her, but in fact, they were wary of her because she was not from Z Country, but the princess of Y Country. Evangeline couldn't change her identity or her feelings for the country, but Zion knew her.

At that moment, Evangeline knew that she didn't love the wrong person. She didn't evaluate him wrongly.

Sissaye couldn't take it anymore. She looked at Zion and asked, "Do you really trust her that much?"

"I'd rather believe in myself rather than her. I believe in my own judgment. Sissaye, I know you're doing this for my own good, but I hope this is the last time I've heard bad news about Evangeline from you."

Such protection made Sissaye's heart and soul split.

"What if I insist?"

She also became stubborn.

Zion's eyes lit up as he said in a low voice, "If you insist on targeting her and looking down on her, then let's call it a day."

Sissaye really couldn't stand up this time. She fell directly on the sofa on the side, and her tears finally flowed uncontrollably.

"Zion, it's said that men in the Ye family are obsessed with someone they loved. Do you want to cut off your relationship with me for Evangeline for more than 20 years? How can you do this to me? You know that I'm..."

"There's no result in your feelings for me. Sissaye, as I said, I'm just a brother to you. Sometimes, don't be too persistent. If you let go of your obsession with me, you'll find that there are other people around you who are more worthy of your love."

"How about you Zion? Can you let go of your obsession with Evangeline and turn around to look at me? Can you?"

Sissaye's words made Evangeline a little angry. She stretched out her arms and really wanted to have a fight with Evangeline.

Zion looked at Sissaye, who was trapped in the swamp of love and felt very upset.

He didn't want the relationship between them to change, but sometimes Sissaye was stubborn enough to make people unable to pull her back.

Zion sighed and said, "Sissaye, Evangeline and I love each other, so it's not an obsession. But I don't love you. You just fall in love with me unilaterally. That's an obsession. Don't let me miss the good person around you."

This was even more unbearable than refusing Sissaye.

She suddenly felt a little envious and a little hateful.

"Zion, I don't want to be disfigured because of love, but I hate Evangeline! I hate her very much! If you want me to give you my blessings, I can't do it! What's more, she has caused you to undergo further investigation, and it is very likely that she will let you take off your military uniform. I will be irreconcilable with her! I will not let her go! I must figure out what she is going to kidnap scene. If I know that she has something to do with the kidnappers, I will absolutely not let her off because of you!"

Sissaye never thought that one day she would speak to Zion like this.

However, she couldn't accept it. The more Zion defended Evangeline, the more she couldn't stand it.

She knew that she had done something wrong, but she couldn't control herself, and she didn't want to.

If she could, she still wanted to be the free and easy Sissaye, but who could tell her how to get back at her?
