The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 617

Mango's heart was in turmoil.

She loved Nathaniel.

However, could she meet him right now? What would she say when she saw him?

Was he capable of doing something to his mother for her sake?

Could he give up the Ye Family for her?

Mango felt an unbearable amount of pain in her heart.

She did not want to see him!

However, she also had her own children that she couldn't neglect.

Without her in the Ye Family, she had no idea how Madam Ye would treat Zion and Rita.

It was easier for Zion as he would be the heir of the Ye Family. Madam Ye would not do anything to him, but what about Rita?

Madam Ye clearly showed that she did not like Rita. She was now kept just for marriage alliances in the future.

Mango did not wish for Rita to become a pawn to be married off. She did not want her daughter to bear all of this!

Mango thought for a while. She proceeded to write a letter for Nathaniel and handed it over to Bettany.

"What do you mean? You're not going to meet him, but you want me to pass this letter to him?"

Mango nodded her head.

Her heart would hurt if she gave up, but it was even more impossible for them to be together as it would be all the more painful to do so.

It would be better to leave the initial happiness behind, go their separate ways, and forget about each other.

Bettany looked at her and said in a low voice, "I thought that you would do anything to see him. Perhaps he could do you some justice." Mango paused for a moment.

Justice?

What was that?

The initial allure of love was lost when it was mixed up with too many things. It was her who was persistent and refused to let go. She tried hard to suck up to everyone in the Ye Family, but she was left with nothing in the end.

Grandma was right. Love and marriage based on self-sacrifice would not make her happy.

She bit her lower lip and did not speak, but the glint in her eyes explained everything.

Bettany didn't know what Mango was thinking, but she said in a low voice, "Clean up and prepare. We'll leave soon. I'll hand this letter to Nathaniel after we leave. Since you don't want to see him, this is the best thing to do. What do you think?"

Mango nodded her head.

Wisdom had been in her arms all the time. He paused for a moment when he heard that they were going to leave, but he kept silent like a mouse.

Mango thought back to the time when she first met Wisdom. This child was so innocent and cheerful. Who would have thought that this quiet and pitiful child would be Wisdom now? What kind of harm did they do to him?

Mango hugged Wisdom tightly and felt extremely guilty.

Bettany asked someone to clean up the mess, but the nurse suddenly barged in.

"Director, someone wants to see you."

"Who is it?"

Bettany was a little impatient. Who was the person who wanted to see her at this time?

The nurse quickly said, "The blue-blooded man."

"What?"

Bettany was a little surprised, and Mango was also stunned for a moment.

Desmond?

The debt had been cleared between them after she returned to Ocean City. Since then, the both of them went their separate ways and did not contact each other at all. Hence, she did not expect that Desmond would come and find Bettany.

Bettany looked at Mango and asked, "Is he here for you?"

Mango shook her head.

Madam Ye kept the news about her very secretive. It might not be long before the Ye Family leaked news about her running away with the Ye Family's property or her dying from illness. In short, Madam Ye would definitely not let the outside world know about her current situation.

It was even more impossible that Desmond knew.

When Bettany saw Mango shake her head, she frowned and muttered to herself, "Then why is he here? Could it be that he's here to give me his blood?"

The corners of Mango's mouth twitched a little.

Bettany was very obsessed with Desmond's blood, and Mango couldn't understand it. Perhaps it was a doctor thing.

"Let him in."

Bettany still let Desmond in a moment of thought.

Desmond was stunned for a moment when he saw Mango.

"Mrs. Ye, you are here too?"

Mango nodded her head.

Desmond looked at Bettany after he greeted Mango and said, T m here to ask you to save someone."

"No."

Bettany refused without hesitation.

The answer seemed to be in Desmond's expectations.

He wasn't disappointed and said in a low voice, "If you help me save her, I'll give you my blood no matter when you need it."

Bettany was stunned and overjoyed at the same time.

"For real?1'

"Mrs. Ye is also here. She can be my witness. As long as you help me save her, I will give you my blood whenever you want it. This is my promise and repayment to you." "Alright! It's a deal!"

Bettany immediately agreed.

Mango shook her head.

It seemed that Desmond was well-prepared, but the only person he would give up everything for was Marissa.

What happened to Marissa?

They didn't pay attention to Marissa in the Underground City the last time and Mango didn't know what happened to her.

Mango wanted to ask, but she kept quiet after thinking about it.

How could she be in the mood to care about other people's business in her current state?

Bettany said with a smile, "We were just about to leave, but we don't know how to. Since you asked me to save someone, that means you have a way to enter from the outside. If so, does that mean that you have a way to get us out of here?"

These words made Mango puzzled.

Bettany explained quickly, 'T ve told you that Nathaniel and Jigsaw's men are tussling here, so this place has been sealed. Hence, we can't go out unless we have special connections. Although I don't know what special connections this guy has to be able into A City, but since he can do it, we don't need to think of any other way. We'll just have him get us out directly."

Mango had no idea about this up until now.

It seemed that Nathaniel and Jigsaw's men were fighting over something important. Otherwise, they wouldn't seal the whole of A City.

Mango's heart ached as if it was being crushed when she heard the man's name again.

"Are you saying that all of you are leaving?"

"Yes, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Bettany acted as if she wouldn't help Desmond if he didn't agree, which made him shake his head immediately.

"Nothing. I just thought that Mrs. Ye would stay."

"I'll talk to you about this later. Also, don't call her Mrs. Ye anymore, call her Miss Shen. I'm pretty sure that this is what she wants, right?"

Bettany looked at Mango.

Mango nodded her head.

From Mrs. Ye to Miss Shen, she was the only one who knew how much she went through.

Desmond was stunned for a moment.

He was well aware of how much Nathaniel had done for Mango. However, it seemed like something happened between them based on her expression Desmond did not have any interest in invading other people's privacy. Then, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it. We'll leave soon."

Mango held Wisdom in her arms, but she did not have much energy in them.

Wisdom struggled to get down before he held Mango's hand. His sensible expression made Mango feel bad.

She wanted to say something to Wisdom, but she couldn't manage anything except for the burning sensation in her throat.

Bettany was busy packing away all her medical data and she ignored everything else.

The nurse was a little reluctant to part with the instruments.

"Director, these instruments cost a lot."

"We can buy these anywhere. It's okay if we lose it. Just take the most precious things with us."

Mango was slightly stunned.

She was going to leave everything but the most precious items behind?

Would it be a good thing if she took her pure love for Nathaniel away as well?

Mango felt a little better at the thought of it.

Desmond moved quickly as well, and it wasn't long before they arranged everything.

Mango, Wisdom, and Bettany got into the car.

This was a lengthened version of a Cadillac, which was obviously worth a lot of money.

Mango remembered that Desmond was not rich, so that meant that this car did not belong to him. However, who did it belong to then?

The Fang Family?

She'd heard that Marissa's background was quite illustrious indeed.

Mango didn't have much time to think before the car started to move.

Wisdom held Mango's hand tightly and snuggled in her arms quietly.

Bettany was a little envious and tried to take Wisdom from Mango, but she failed every time.

In the end, she could only sigh and look at them enviously.

Desmond sat in the passenger seat, and there was a chauffeur driving the car.

The car left the hospital, and the roads in A City were clear.

There was a roadblock just as they were passing the checkpoint, and Desmond's car was stopped.

Bettany looked outside and said in a low voice, "If s Nathaniel!"

Mango's chest clenched.

The car windows were tinted, and it allowed people inside the car to look outside, but not vice versa.

Mango watched Nathaniel as he got out of the car and walked towards them.

What was so important that he had to personally stop the car?

Mango's heart was in a gallop.

Wisdom looked at Nathaniel and Mango. He continued to nestle in Mango's embrace and remained still.

Bettany was still worried that Wisdom would suddenly speak to Nathaniel, but she was comforted yet distressed at the same time when she saw him acting like this.

After all, Nathaniel had raised Wisdom for four years. Wisdom and Nathaniel shared a close relationship, but he did not seek Nathaniel as he was watching over Mango. Hence, Wisdom was very sensible

indeed.

Perhaps Madam Ye's actions broke his heart, or perhaps he truly thought that he was the only one Mango had left. He would rather watch Nathaniel come over than take the initiative to speak out.

Mango's chest gradually tensed up.

Nathaniel was coming over!

Would he notice her?

Would she be able to leave this place safe and sound?

How would Nathaniel react when he saw her like this? What would he do?

The series of questions caused Mango to have a splitting headache.

She even wanted to open the car door and escape.

Bettany held Mango's hand tightly just as she touched the car door handle. Then, the doctor said in a low voice, "If you don't go, we still have a chance to leave. If you do so, you will have to stay behind. Think carefully. If you really want to stay, I won't stop you."

Mango's hand immediately froze.

Did she want to leave?

Of course, she did.

She wanted to get out of here!

She was unable to live under the same roof as Madam Ye as if nothing had happened, and she could not let Nathaniel be caught in a difficult spot between her and Madam Ye.

In truth, she was afraid of getting hurt again.

Her fragile emotions couldn't handle another heartbreak.

Then, Mango slowly put down her hand. At that moment, Nathaniel came around to the front of the car and reached out to knock on the window.

"Get off the car. Routine inspection! Everyone get out and step aside!"
