The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 620

"Nathaniel, what are you doing?"

Seeing him like this, Madam Ye completely panicked.

Nathaniel said coldly, "Bring my mother to her room and serve her well. No one is allowed to let her out without my permission. You may disobey my orders if you don't wish to work in the Ye Family anymore." Then, he scanned the room with cold eyes. His icy gaze made everyone tremble involuntarily.

"Madam Ye, if you may!"

Madam Ye never thought she would be treated the way how she treated Mango.

"Don't you dare!"

Madam Ye yelled in frustration as she could not accept the fact that she was being treated like this.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel didn't say a word, but his men already knew how cruel he could be. Soon, they forcefully brought Madam Ye to her room.

"Nathaniel Ye, you ungrateful brat! Even though you're not my child, but this is how you repay me? How dare you! My love, are you seeing this? This is the son I've raised all these years. This is your son!" Madam Ye cried and thrashed in the room.

"Mr. Ye, perhaps..."

Thomas asked warily as he was afraid that this would harm Nathaniel's reputation if the news was spread.

However, Nathaniel replied coldly, "Don't worry. I want to know everything that happened while I was away, especially about the Hans family and Mango. Bring forward anyone who knows about the truth. The more detail, the better."

Thomas's heart rippled with worry.

He never would have imagined that when everything was about to end, something would happen to Mango in The Ye's Mansion. Not only that, but the most shocking fact was that it was Madam Ye who was responsible for this.

Right at this moment, Mateo barged in with Terrance.

"Nathaniel!"

As soon as Mateo entered, he swung his fist towards Nathaniel.

Nathaniel could have avoided it, but he chose not to. Instead, he let Mateo's fist hit him in the face.

His nose burned with pain, and a warm liquid streamed down from his nose.

"Mr. Ye!"

Thomas quickly handed Nathaniel a napkin to cover his nose with.

"Mr. Mateo, what are you doing? There's no need for violence!"

"What am I doing? The Ye Family really is something! Your family actually forced my mother to her death! Where is that wh*re mother of yours?!" Mateo's face was red from anger.

He had been away for five years. He had endured a lot and was looking forward to quickly completing his mission so that he could return home to see his mother. He had not expected to see his mother's corpse when he finally returned.

Upon his return, he heard from the servants that it was Madam Ye who forced Madam Hans to her death. Hearing this fueled Mateo with rage and he brought Terrance with him to the Ye's Mansion. Nathaniel pushed Thomas away and looked at Mateo. He said, "I have only learned about this not long ago. As you know, both of us have only just returned. You've lost your mother, and I've lost my wife. No one knows where Mango is right now. I'm not trying to protect my mother, but I think we should find Mango first before settling other matters."

"Has Mango disappeared? Why? Did your mother do something to her? Nathaniel, our servants said that my mother agreed to commit suicide because she wanted to repay the life she owed the Ye Family and she wanted to make sure that Mango wouldn't be treated badly by the Ye Family. Only then would she be happy. Now that my mother is dead, you're telling me that Mango's gone. So you're saying that my mother's death was meaningless?"

Mateo's entire body trembled with fury.

Hearing this, Nathaniel replied with a hurt tone, "No one wanted any of this to happen, especially me. I can only say that the misunderstanding of Nick's death has caused both our families to suffer." "Even so, you can't harm Mango as she's the daughter-in-law of the Ye family! Nathaniel Ye, I'm telling you, Mango had better be safe. Otherwise, I'll never forgive you."

As Mateo spoke, the person who had fed Mango the mute drug earlier heard the news of Nathaniel's return. Furthermore, he had also learned that Madam Ye was now powerless. Then, he hurriedly came forward to admit his actions to Nathaniel.

He hadn't noticed Mateo and Terrance were present too. Hurriedly, he fell to his knees in front of Nathaniel with a thump.

"Mr. Ye, I was forced to do this by Madam Ye! I didn't have a choice as I was looking out for my family!"

Nathaniel glared at him and said coldly, "What do you mean?"

"After Madam Ye learned that Madam Hans had committed suicide, she agreed to let Mrs. Ye go. However, she was worried that Mrs. Ye would go behind her back and ruin the Ye Family's reputation, so she ordered me to feed her a drug that would make her mute!"

"What did you say?"

In a flash, Nathaniel and Mateo grabbed the man's collar at the same time.

He was nearly strangled to death, but he didn't dare struggle free. Then, he added quickly, "I didn't have a choice, Mr. Ye. If I didn't obey, my family would suffer."

"You dare drug a member of the Hans family? You have a death wish, don't you?"

Mateo kicked the man, causing him to tumble to the floor.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel let go of him.

Mute drug?

Mango was now mute?

He suddenly remembered seeing Mango in Desmond's car.

She had turned her head to the window, not wanting to look at him at all.

Back then, he had thought it was Marissa. Now that he thought about it, she must have been very disappointed with him to the extent that she didn't even want to see his face. Now, her beautiful voice was gone?

No!

How could this be?

This wasn't possible!

Then, Nathaniel stood up abruptly. However, he staggered and fell directly into the chair once more, his face as pale as a ghost.

Terrance glared at Nathaniel and said, "We want Madam Ye to pay with her life."

Nathaniel did not speak.

He also wanted Madam Ye to pay for what she had done, but there were things that he was unable to do. No matter what, he was still Madam Ye's son.

"What? You disagree?"

Seeing that there was no response from Nathaniel, Mateo turned around and asked fiercely.

Nathaniel's heart was aching so much that he could hardly breathe.

Just how terrifying were the things that Mango had gone through in such a short period of time?

How could a girl like her endure it all on her own?

Seeing Terrance and Mateo like this, he whispered, "I can't hand her over to you here. Tomorrow I will bring her to the Ye Family's graveyard to accompany my father as her punishment."

"What? That's it? Nathaniel, Mango is your wife! She had suffered so much for you, and that's the punishment you'll give your mother?"

Terrance couldn't believe his ears. If it weren't for his crippled legs, he would beat Nathaniel up right now.

However, Mateo could hear the meaning behind Nathaniel's words.

He stopped Terrance and said coldly, "Our family will surely settle this debt with your family. However, the most important thing right now is to find Mango. Your family has hurt ours, so we can't let her suffer outside."

After that, he dragged Terrance away by force.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel's body felt cold, as if he was in the middle of a snowstorm.

The person he loved the most was hurt by his closest family member, and he was not by Mango's side when it happened. She must have been so scared and helpless.

Seeing Nathaniel like this, Thomas couldn't help but say, "Mr. Ye, are you alright?"

"Not really. My heart feels like it is about to shatter. Mateo was right. The most important thing right now is to find Mango. Is there any news on Desmond yet?"

"Yes, Desmond returned to Dr. Fang's home with Bettany, who was going to treat Miss Fang's illness, but Mrs. Ye and Wisdom got out of the car halfway. Bettany said that she didn't know where they went."

Thomas told Nathaniel the latest news.

Hearing this, Nathaniel gripped the armrest tightly, not realizing that his nails have sunk into the fabric deeply.

"Where did they get off? Get all the surveillance video from cameras nearby. Find them at all costs."

"Alright, I'm on it."

Thomas replied before leaving.

Everyone in the hall didn't dare make a sound.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel felt as if his entire heart was being ripped to shreds.

Five years ago, he hadn't been able to protect Mango. He nearly let her die in a fire and he nearly killed his two children as well. Five years later, he still failed to protect Mango and he let his mother hurt her. He was a useless husband!

Remorse and guilt surrounded Nathaniel, and it almost drowned him.

"I want to know everything! All of it!"

Nathaniel said coldly, and the emptiness in his voice was frightening.

Now that everyone knew how powerful Nathaniel was, they told Nathaniel the whole truth hurriedly.

Nathaniel learned that Mango had been scalded by Madam Ye with boiling water and she had been splashed with cold water in order to wake her up for chores. After he heard that, Nathaniel's hands clasped tightly together, causing his veins to protrude.

Everyone was wary after they had finished speaking.

Nathaniel was silent for a long time before he asked, "Where is Rita?"

"She was taken away by Merle. During this period, Lucy took great care of Rita."

Someone spoke for Lucy.

Hearing this, Nathaniel nodded and said, "Have Lucy be the butler of the Ye's Mansion. Everything will be handed over to her in the future. Also, find Merle as soon as possible."

"Mr. Ye, Merle is in the military compound."

One of his men reported on Merle's whereabouts.

Then, Nathaniel got up quickly, and he took two steps before pausing. Next, he said, "My mother likes her tea. Boil some water and draw a bath for her."

The servants were stunned for a moment. They did not understand what he meant.

However, Lucy understood him completely.

"Yes, I will arrange it, Mr. Ye."

"Prepare Rita's room, I'm going to bring her home."

After that, Nathaniel headed out.

After that, Thomas sent a message to him saying that Sisi was accused of stealing and sent to the police station by Madam Ye for protecting Mango.

Immediately, Nathaniel asked him to bail Sisi out.

He got into the car alone and locked the door.

Then, he covered his chest and lay on the steering wheel. His heart ached so hard that he couldn't breathe.

He had only been away for two days. How did all this happen?

Even though he knew that Madam Ye didn't like Mango all that much, he never thought that she would treat Mango so cruelly.

Nathaniel was gasping for air, and he felt as though the oxygen had been entirely sucked out from his lungs. Furthermore, the air seemed to be getting thinner.

"Mango, where the hell are you?"

Why didn't she want to look at him or tell him anything when he was right in front of her? Was she really that disappointed in him?

Would Mango be able to forgive him and return to the Ye Family, and to his arms as well?

Nathaniel didn't know the answer. He only wished that bringing Rita and Zion home would help him bring Mango back to his side. However, at this moment, Thomas brought news of Zion that made Nathaniel crumple in anguish.
