The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 585
"When did you become that good at gossiping?"
Nathaniel's words made Walter somewhat annoyed, but he knew that he had made a mistake. Then, he replied sheepishly, "Mango, I'm sorry. I really didn't know." Mango turned her head to look at Nathaniel.
"What happened to Wisdom? You actually left him with Yama Hades? How could you do that? Don't you know how much he has suffered?"
Mango's heart ached for Wisdom.
Nathaniel sighed and said, "Well talk about this after we get home."
Hence, Mango didn't continue to pester Nathaniel as she turned around to look at Walter and said, "You'd better show me some results, or else I'll really look down on you. I don't have friends who are not ambitious."
"Of course not, just wait and see."
Walter was filled with a sudden burst of confidence.
Nathaniel took Mango's hand and spoke upon seeing that Walter had regained his confidence. "Let's go home. Your body hasn't recovered yet, so you can't stay out for too long." "Yes, go back and have a rest. You don't have to worry about me. I'll be fine."
Walter replied hurriedly.
Mango looked at Nathaniel and Walter in silence before she turned and left the office.
Then, Nathaniel looked at Walter and whispered, "This is how you repay me? Are you trying to destroy my newfound peace?"
"It was your fault anyway. Wisdom is my disciple. Have you gotten my permission before sending him to someone else? Honestly, I would punish you as well if I was Mango."
Despite the current situation, Walter refused to be cowed by Nathaniel. He was still the old Walter.
Nathaniel nodded and said, "You win this round."
Nathaniel hurriedly followed Mango after seeing that she had walked away.
"Mango, I can explain."
Meanwhile, Mango got in the car angrily.
Nathaniel felt very distressed after he got in the car and saw tears welling up in Mango's eyes.
"Don't be sad, it's Wisdom's own idea. I've asked him, and I won't let him go as long as he doesn't want to. Also, Yama Hades will treat him well, and she was Genevieve's teacher. She sees Wisdom as her own son because she accidentally killed her own due to postpartum depression."
However, Mango was still very sad and she didn't react to Nathaniel's explanation.
"Mango, did you hear what I said?"
However, Mango said sorrowfully, "It's all because of me. Wisdom wouldn't be like this if it wasn't for me.
"It's not your fault. Blame me if you really want to blame someone."
It was obvious that Mango was still frustrated over this matter although she had stopped arguing.
Nathaniel didn't know what to say, so he just sent her home after seeing her like this.
He wanted to hug Mango after they arrived home and got off the car, but she rejected him.
Then, she slowly walked back to the house.
"Mommy!"
Zion's voice suddenly sounded.
Then, Mango was stunned for a moment as a small figure suddenly rushed out and fell into Mango's arms.
"Mommy, are you okay? How are you?"
Zion's eyes brimmed with tears, and it made
Mango feel distressed.
At that moment, Mango's heart softened.
"Mommy's fine. Thank you for helping me find your daddy, my darling."
"It's great that you're fine, mommy. But did something happen to Wisdom? I was going to agree to that woman's request so that she could save you. However, Wisdom secretly ambushed me and knocked me out!"
Zion was very angry every time he thought of this.
How could Wisdom, who seemed naive, ambush and knock him out? Not only that, but he also stole Zion's helicopter and went to A City alone. This was what Zion should have done!
Mango felt even more discomfort in her heart after hearing what Zion said.
"Mommy will definitely bring Wisdom back."
"Really? Mommy, that woman is so fierce, and she will definitely treat Wisdom badly. You must bring him back, okay? He is my brother, and I can't let him suffer." Zion's words made Nathaniel's eyes flicker slightly as he thought of Nick.
Then, Madam Ye came out of nowhere and she murmured upon hearing what Zion had said, "Look, even my grandson knows that he can't let his brother suffer." This sentence had another meaning to it.
Madam Ye looked at Nathaniel when she felt his glance. Both of their glances met and there was a secret conversation being held.
"That depends on how he acts. Furthermore, they might not even be my actual brother."
Nathaniel's words left Mango slightly stunned.
What did that mean?
Why did she have a feeling that something was not right between Nathaniel and Madam Ye?
Was she mistaken?
"Nathan, what's wrong?"
"It's fine. You can go upstairs and rest."
Then, Nathaniel smiled and said to Zion, "Hey, you little brat, take your mommy upstairs to have a rest. She's a little tired."
"Oh, okay!"
Zion was very obedient and he quickly grabbed hold of Mango's hand. However, he turned around and asked Nathaniel, "Mr. Ye, are you alright?" "Why wouldn't I be? Go on."
"All right."
At last, Zion felt relieved.
Next, he held on to Mango's hand. On the other end, she didn't know what to say and just followed Zion upstairs after looking at Nathaniel and Madam Ye. Nathaniel looked at Madam Ye and said in a low voice after Mango left, "Mom, are you planning to protect him forever?"
"He is your brother!"
Madam Ye looked at Nathaniel and replied stubbornly.
Nathaniel sneered and said, "Brother? We just have the same face. Thomas and I could share the same face if I wanted to. Mom, you saw that DNA report."
"What does a measly report mean? Does it mean that he's not your brother? Perhaps Noah got the wrong data?"
"How is that possible? Noah won't do such a thing. Mom, I wouldn't object if you want to protect him, but you'd better do so forever. Don't blame me if something happens once he steps out of your sanctuary." Nathaniel left after stating his thoughts.
"Stop right there!"
Madam Ye scolded him and asked, "Does Mango know about this matter?"
"I haven't told her yet. To be exact, I don't know how to tell her that my mom has been protecting a person who tried to pretend that he is my brother. What do you mean by this? Or should I say, what relationship do you two share? Are you the one asking him to pretend that he's my brother?"
Hence, Nathaniel's question made Madam Ye's body tremble a little.
She looked at Nathaniel and growled, "All I do is for the Ye Family! Nathaniel, you should know that I will never do anything that will harm our family!"
"Nevertheless, he hurt Mango, me, and even the Ye Family! I could maybe treat him as my brother if he didn't covet my tank blueprint and join forces with outsiders to attack me and Mango. I wouldn't have thought too much if he treated Wisdom, Zion, and Rita better. You said that he did it for the Ye Family, so is hunting me and my wife down part of that too? If so, then you might as well just say that my death would be good for our family!"
"You b*stard!"
Madam Ye was so angry that she directly slapped Nathaniel in the face.
Hence, Nathaniel and Madam Ye were both stunned. After all, this was the first time Madam Ye had harmed Nathaniel, and it was all because of an outsider.
Then, Nathaniel's expression shifted.
Madam Ye suddenly became a little flustered.
"No, I didn't mean it. Nathan..."
"Mom, is it true that you think I should die? My wife and children should die as well, right?"
There was a trace of sadness in Nathaniel's eyes.
"No, Nathan, it's not like that."
"Then how is it like? Who is he? Why does he want to pretend to be my brother and why are you protecting him?"
Madam Ye couldn't take Nathaniel's harsh questioning.
Then, she clutched at her chest and gasped for air.
Nathaniel frowned when he saw this, but he quickly went forward to hold Madam Ye and shouted at the butler next to her, "Why are you still standing there? Call a doctor."
"Oh, okay!"
The butler was confused, but he quickly made a phone call.
The ambulance arrived and took Madam Ye away not long after that.
Zion and Mango frowned when they saw this from the window.
"Mommy, what's wrong with grandma and Mr. Ye?"
"I don't know either, but something is happening, and we have no idea about it."
Mango sighed as she felt quite helpless about this.
She couldn't even fulfill her simple wish of peace and harmony in her family.
Thus, she couldn't help but think of Madam Hans.
She just suddenly thought of Madam Hans even when she knew she shouldn't. Perhaps it was the unshakeable familial bond they shared, but Mango did not regret her decision. Then, Nathaniel called Mango and told her that Madam Ye had a heart attack. Hence, he had to go to the hospital with her, and he asked Mango to stay home and relax. Mango agreed, but she didn't ask any further.
The ambulance took Nathaniel and Madam Ye away from The Ye's Mansion.
Next, Zion said to Mango, "Mommy, hurry up and go to bed. There's nothing to worry about with Mr. Ye around. He'll be there even if everything falls apart."
Mango could tell that Zion had confidence in Nathaniel from the tone of his voice.
She smiled and rubbed Zion's head before she said, "You should call him daddy in the future, got it?"
"I'll try my best."
Zion felt a little awkward. After all, it was strange to call Nathaniel something else as he had been calling him Mr. Ye this whole time.
However, Mango didn't insist on it. Instead, she asked him to go back to his room and rest.
Zion left Mango's room after seeing that she was really sleepy.
Meanwhile, Mango wanted to have a look at Nathaniel's design, so she turned on the computer. There were a ton of complicated emotions welling up in her heart, so she thought she should channel the energy onto his design instead.
As the thought crossed her mind, Mango turned the computer on. However, a figure suddenly jumped through the window before she could open the file.
"Who goes there?"
A hand wrapped itself around Mango's mouth when she turned around, and the familiar face left her stunned.
