The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 528

"It's not a bomb! I'm not as skillful as Zion, so I just learned some tricks from him."

Wisdom quickly protected Rita. He grabbed some beans from his backpack before throwing them out when he landed.

At the same time, he tossed out the olive oil in his backpack, which made those bodyguards who came to catch them lost their balance. They then fell to the ground one after another.

"Wow, Wisdom! You're awesome!"

Rita landed on the ground and she could not stand steadily. However, Wisdom grabbed her wrist and he helped her to get up from behind by using his strength.

"Wisdom, you haven't told me what is that, if it's not a bomb?"

Rita hadn't forgotten about the explosion just now, so she couldn't help but ask.

Wisdom explained while dodging their captors, "It's very simple. You can fill up the flammable liquids like gasoline in empty bottles. Then, equip it with a specific device and ignite it when necessary. It's not lethal, but it can buy us some time.'

"I don't understand!"

Rita frowned and she felt despondent about this. Why couldn't she understand what Zion and Wisdom were talking about?

They were all at the same age, right?

Wisdom looked back with a smile before saying, "It doesn't matter. You are a girl, so just leave everything to us and live under our protection."

"But I will feel that I am useless!"

Rita kept an eye on the people around her as she spoke. When she saw a bodyguard struggling to get up not far away, she took an apple from the coffee table before throwing it towards the man's forehead. "Bingo!"

Rita wanted to jump up happily, but unfortunately, she had forgotten that she was sliding on the oily floor with Wisdom's help. She then accidentally fell to the ground.

"Oh my!"

The force had dragged Wisdom to fall.

When the bodyguards saw the situation, they shouted immediately, "Quick! Get them!"

Wisdom was a little speechless. He pushed away Rita upon seeing the bodyguards struggled to come over from the side.

With the skid force of the olive oil, Rita was directly pushed to the entrance of the living room.

"Run! Go back and find Mommy! Be fast!"

Wisdom turned around and he shouted at Rita. After that, he took out the things from his backpack before flinging them to the bodyguards. There were cucumbers, tomatoes, and cabbages, and it seemed like he took almost all the vegetables from the kitchen.

Rita was stunned for a moment and she could not react in time.

"Wisdom!"

"Hurry up and leave me alone! Go to Mommy and tell her to pick me up! You don't want to get protected by us, right? So, now you're a warrior, and I will be waiting for you to save me!" Wisdom tried his best to block everyone in front of him.

He was the son of Nick. Even if he caused any trouble, it was nothing more than getting beaten up by his father. Nick wouldn't kill him for real, but Rita was different.

Although Wisdom didn't know what had happened recently, he was very disappointed upon hearing Nick's words in the club.

It turned out that his father intended to kill Zion!

That was his nephew!

If Zion was his target, Wisdom was unsure if Nick would let go of Rita. In this critical situation, the only thing he should do was to ensure Rita left this place as soon as possible. Rita wanted to say something, but when she heard Wisdom's words, she immediately dared to do so.

"Okay, Wisdom! Wait for me to bring Mommy here to save you!"

As soon as Rita spoke, she turned around to run away. Wisdom smiled comfortingly when he saw her greasy back.

As long as she managed to leave this place and returned to Mommy, he would be fine.

However, he had forgotten that Rita wasn't Zion. She basically didn't have much contact with the outside world, hence that girl was clueless about where to go after leaving this villa.

Rita ran out of the place, only to find that she was at a villa district. The sea was nearby, and there was a street straight down the area without cars passing by.

"Where is this place? How am I supposed to contact Mommy?"

Rita was lost.

She wanted to call Mango unconsciously, but she couldn't find her phone. Just then, Rita remembered that her phone had been taken away by someone else.

"What should I do?"

Rita stood alone on the path and she didn't even know where to go.

The bodyguards were about to come after her.

Rita gritted her teeth before dashing towards a direction.

She ran for a long time and her legs were sore. Yet, Rita didn't see any car passing by, nor a person.

"I'm so hungry!"

Rita rubbed her shriveled belly and she recalled the steak served by the woman not too long ago. She couldn't help but gulp her saliva.

"It would be great if I could have a bite at that time!"

Rita muttered to herself while glancing at the surrounding. She felt that the world was enormous, and she couldn't even find a way to reach her mother.

"Mommy, Zion, where are you two?"

Rita's tears were about to shed.

When she heard a car passing behind her, she was filled with hope. But, she pulled a long face as she turned around.

What would she do if the bad guys came after her?

Rita was aware that Wisdom was still waiting for her rescue. She looked around before spotting a trash can nearby. Hence, she ran towards that way to hide behind it. "It stinks!"

Rita wrinkled her nose and she was discontented about this. However, when she thought of Wisdom was waiting for her, Rita could only endure everything. Finally, a car drove by the place where she hid.

Rita heaved a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, she felt pain in her feet. Upon looking at it, Rita found that her shoes had fallen off, and there were wounds on her feet with blood flowing out. "Ow, it hurts! Mommy, Zion, where are you?"

Rita wept.

It was getting darker. Rita cried and she fell asleep. Soon, Rita felt someone pushed her and she woke up instantly. Just then, that girl was lying in an unfamiliar room. "Where is this place?"

Rita opened her eyes and she hurriedly stood up after realizing the strange environment. She noticed her clothes had been changed, and the wounds on her feet were bandaged too.

Rita knew that this was not her home. She got out of bed painfully before leaping to the door with one leg. The door creaked suddenly from the outside when she was opening it.

"Ahh!"

Rita screamed her lung out subconsciously, which startled the person in front of her.

"What's wrong? Is your foot hurts?"

Rita was stunned when she heard a familiar voice.

"Shawn? Why are you here?"

He was the charming guy that Mango met at the playground.

Shawn smiled at Rita. The dimples on his cheek made him look even more handsome.

"This is my house! You collapsed next to the trash can at my door. I walked by and saw

you, so I asked my nanny to bring you in."

Shawn's words surprised Rita a little.

"Your trash can? Now I know where you live!"

"Yeah, how do you feel? Are you hungry? I brought you something to eat. Would you like to have some?"

Shawn placed a tray of food in front of Rita.

Rita had been starving for a long time. Seeing those were her favorite, she quickly nodded her head. She didn't even care about her image before stretching out her hand to grab it, but Shawn stopped her. "Wash your hands."

"But I'm so hungry."

Rita made a pitiful face as she looked at Shawn, which made the boy feel bad to blame her.

However, Shawn said with a smile, "Wash your hands. You can't eat if you don't clean them."

Although Shawn was smiling, Rita could feel that this guy was very persistent. He would not pamper her like her mother and her brother.

Rita pouted her lips when thinking of this, however, she had no choice but to go to the bathroom to wash her hands.

After Rita washed her hand, she saw that Shawn cut the steak into small pieces. Then, he brought it to her while saying smilingly, "Enjoy it."

"Thank you, Shawn!"

Rita immediately smiled happily.

There was nothing in this world that could make her happier than eating.

Seeing Rita enjoyed her meal, Shawn had a pleasant smile on his face.

"Eat slowly. It's all yours. If it's not enough, I'll ask the kitchen to prepare for you."

Shawn looked like a gentleman.

Rita nodded her head while eating. That girl didn't speak to Shawn as she was too busy enjoying her meals.

She was starving!

Rita had never been so hungry ever since she was born! Moreover, she ran for a long time to avoid being caught by those bodyguards.

Rita stopped eating as her belly was full. Shawn then gave her a cup of water.

"Drink some water. Otherwise, you will get choked."

"Alright!"

Rita felt that the entire world had become perfect after her meal.

Shawn got someone to clean up and he asked, "Why are you alone in this villa district? Do you live here too?"

"My family doesn't live here. Wisdom and I were trapped here by my uncle."

As Rita huffed angrily, she suddenly jumped up from the bed upon thinking of something.

"Oh right! Wisdom is still waiting for me! How come I fell asleep? It's so late now, and I am worried about him. Those people are so fierce. I don't know if they will beat him. What have I done! Why am I so stupid?"

Rita paced back and forth with anxiety.

Shawn seemed to catch some details from her words.

He frowned before saying, "You and your brother were kidnapped?"

"Kidnap? It should be. They would not allow us to get out of the room and our phones were seized. Wisdom told me to escape first and look for Mommy to save him."

Upon hearing those words, Shawn couldn't stay calm anymore.

"Have you called the police?"

"Call the police? Do you mean to ask for help from the police? But Wisdom asked me to find Mommy."

Rita felt a little conflicted.

Should she call the police about the abduction by Uncle? But Uncle was her family member, right?

Shawn couldn't understand Rita's reasoning. He thought any uncles who imprisoned children should be a bad person. If they wanted to save another kid, both of them should call the police.

"Rita, listen to me. I don't know how those bad guys will treat your brother. Do you remember your Mommy's phone number?"

"Yes, I do."

"Okay. From now on, call your Mommy. I'll talk to her."

Shawn was afraid that Rita couldn't understand, so he quickly made a suggestion.

Rita heard this and she quickly nodded her head. That girl then got the phone from Shawn to call Mango. However, her mother's phone line was busy.
