The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 669

"Mistress, Edolie wasn't in the car as she let someone else drive her car out, so she wasn't involved in the accident. I'm afraid that we might've alerted our enemy..."

Merle's call came and Mango was taken aback by his words.

It seemed that Edolie was quite a vigilant person.

Mango hung up the phone and sent a message to Merle.

"Got it, ask your men to continue keeping an eye on Edolie."

After sending the message, Mango quickly contacted Nathaniel.

"Where are you? Edolie wasn't in her car so the one that got into the accident isn't her... You don't have to go there anymore."

Nathaniel frowned slightly when he saw Mango's message.

Edolie wasn't in the car?

That was to say, Edolie must have gotten the news and might have already found a place to hide. Also, there was a chance that she would send messages to Hank to instruct them to bring Anaya to another location.

At the thought of this, Nathaniel hurriedly sent a message to Mango.

"Keep an eye on the village entrance as they might want to move Anaya to another location. I won't be able to rush back in time, so if they indeed bring Anaya out, you and Merle must rescue her no matter what."

Mango nodded and asked Nathaniel to hurry back.

However, she frowned with worry.

This place wasn't Ocean City, and they would still have to abide by the law before taking any action.

At the thought of this, Mango sent Denver a message.

"Do you know any cops here in Nakasara?"

Denver thought that something had happened to Mango, so he hurriedly asked, "Did you get into trouble?"

"No, I need some help from the police here but the bureaucratic procedures are really complicated, so I wanted to ask you if you have any connections here."

Denver heaved a sigh of relief after seeing Mango's message.

"That's a relief. It's indeed much more complicated to settle issues here, especially when dealing with outsiders, but one of my comrades joined the police force. I can introduce him to you and you can explain your situation to him."

"That would be great, thank you."

"Miss Shen, you don't have to thank me. Just bring me some good stuff when you come back!"

Denver smiled as he forwarded his comrade's contact details to Mango.

Denver was afraid that his comrade would be clueless about Mango's situation, so he quickly told him what happened to her.

As soon as Mango saved Denver's comrade's number, the other party immediately messaged her.

"How can I help you, beauty?"

"Someone held a child hostage in Altane Village illegally, but we can't enter the village. It is likely that they will leave the place now and take the child with them, so we really hope you can help." Mango typed the message hastily.

Denver's comrade replied in an instant, "Alright, we'll head over right now, but please don't interfere. If anything happens, the situation will become even more complicated if you're involved." "Alright, thank you." "You're welcome. My name is Marquis Beckett, you can come to me anytime if you need my help as I'm really close to Denver."

Mango let out a sigh of relief after seeing Marquis's words.

She knew that it would be too late for her to rush back now, so she quickly sent a message to Merle.

"Tell your men to keep an eye on the villagers but don't fight nor start any conflict with them. If they want to leave Altane Village, don't stop them. Just follow them from behind, and be sure to keep us updated on their whereabouts."

Merle was slightly stunned as he replied, "What if they escape?"

"Just listen to me."

Mango hung up the phone and left the hotel hastily before she drove towards the direction of Altane Village.

Not long after she departed, Merle sent a message to her saying that Hank took a few people with him and left Altane Village. Also, Merle seemed to have noticed that Anaya was in the car. Mango told Merle to follow them from a distance and to be ready to report their location at any

time.

As soon as Marquis received the news from Mango, he immediately brought his men over and stopped Hank's vehicle in the middle of the street.

"Routine inspection! Stop your vehicle and show me your license and registration, thank you for your cooperation!"

Hank was completely stunned.

In this place, the police seldom conducted any inspections as it wasn't even close to the border of the central city. It was just a small village, so why would the police come here to inspect the cars? Nevertheless, Hank didn't have the courage to ignore the police and drive away as he couldn't afford to be accused of assaulting a police officer.

"Hank, what should we do? Anaya, she..."

"Shut up!"

Hank broke out in a cold sweat.

He glanced at Anaya and said fiercely, "I'll untie you, but don't you dare spout sh*t later, is that clear? If not, I'll beat you to death!" However, Anaya stared at him stubbornly.

Hank noticed her attitude and he got so angry that he was about to slap her when the person next to him stopped him.

"Hank, the police are here..." "You better watch out!"

Hank untied Anaya's bindings and threw them under the seat. Two men sandwiched Anaya so that it would be impossible for her to escape. Hank stopped the car with a smile before he said to Marquis, "What's the matter? Do you really have to inspect us even in this tiny village?" "Quit your nonsense and get out of the car now!"

Hank's expression darkened.

He had to get out?

Wouldn't Anaya seize this opportunity to escape?

"What are you waiting for? Is there anything illegal in the car? You're not smuggling drugs, are you?"

As soon as Marquis said those words, Hank trembled uncontrollably.

"Officer, please don't accuse us of such illegal acts as we are law-abiding citizens..."

"Is that so? Then get down and let us have a look!"

Marquis's expression remained solemn all this while.

Hank's heart was pounding wildly, yet he had no choice but to get out of the car.

At that moment, he frowned as he noticed that Merle's car was still following them from a distance behind. However, they also had to stop the car because of the police inspection.

If the police hadn't shown up, the people behind them would have taken the opportunity to rob them of Anaya... So they were probably Mango's men!

At the thought of this, Hank took out his phone and wanted to call Edolie, but Marquis stopped him.

"What are you doing? Calling for help?"

"No... nothing, I just wanted to call my wife."

Hank said with a smile but he no longer had the guts to call Edolie.

"You can call her after the inspection."

Marquis didn't say anything more and immediately asked the other people in the car to get out.

At that instant, Anaya quickly pushed aside the man on her left. Afterward, she ran toward Marquis and grabbed his clothes as she started crying. "Anaya Ye, you come back!"

Hank was so nervous that he almost got a heart attack.

This poor girl was really hard to deal with!

"What are you doing?"

However, Marquis quickly stopped Hank.

"What's going on?"

Hank was drenched in a cold sweat but he hurriedly said with a smile, "Officer, this is my niece and she's not in good health so I'm taking her to the doctor." Meanwhile, Anaya was howling as she cried.

She kept waving her hands at the officer.

At the sight of this, Hank quickly said, "Come on! Stop talking if you can't speak... Officer, my niece has issues with her vocal cords, so I'm taking her to the hospital."

"Is that so?"

Marquis looked at Anaya and Hank before saying with a sneer, "Well... I've got a report that you kidnapped this girl and locked her up illegally, is that true?"

"Who told you such nonsense? That's not true! This is my niece!"

It was right at this moment that Mango arrived and she hurriedly ran over.

After that, Mango pulled Anaya behind her while Anaya burst into tears the moment she saw Mango. Then, she hugged Mango immediately.

Mango pointed at Hank angrily and gestured frantically.

Hank began to panic the moment he saw Mango, and now that Marquis was asking Mango questions, he immediately turned around and made a break for it!

"Stop right there!"

Seeing this, Marquis immediately led his men to pursue Hank.

Merle saw this as well, and he quickly came over.

"Are you hurt, Mistress?"

Mango shook her head and immediately bent down to check on Anaya.

"Did you get hurt?"

Anaya shook her head yet when Mango touched her arm, she subconsciously flinched.

Then, Mango narrowed her eyes in suspicion.

She lifted Anaya's sleeve up and found that her body was covered with large bruises. Hence, it was obvious that Anaya had been abused.

Of course, Mango felt extremely distressed.

She took out her mobile phone and took pictures of the wounds on Anaya's body before sending it to Marquis. She intended to prosecute Hank for abusing and detaining the child illegally.

Marquis got really angry when he received the photos. Fortunately, it didn't take them long before they caught Hank.

After the incident, Mango brought Anaya back to the hotel and bid her take a bath and rest.

On the other hand, Merle stood outside the door as Mango took out a debit card and handed it over to Merle.

"This is your reward."

Merle felt somewhat bitter deep down and wanted to reject the offer, but he was afraid that Mango would not ask for his help anymore in the future if he didn't accept the reward. Nevertheless, he felt really bad for receiving the money.

After all, Mango was the mistress of Dark Night Empire, so he really shouldn't accept her money...

However, Mango did not care about how conflicted Merle felt as she passed the debit card to him before closing the door.

Merle stood outside the door and looked at the debit card in his hand sorrowfully, but he had no idea what else could he do.

Nathaniel was rushing back to the village when he passed by the car accident and found that the situation was actually quite ghastly.

He got out of the car to have a look and confirmed that Edolie wasn't there before getting back into his car.

"Are you disappointed, Mr. Ye?"

Suddenly, Eddie's voice came from behind him.

Nathaniel narrowed his eyes and looked at Edolie. He had no idea when she'd gotten into his car, but he sneered and said, "You're so bold. Aren't you afraid that I might drive you all the way off the edge of this

cliff?"

"It has always been my dream to die together with you, Mr. Ye, but I guess you won't be willing to let go of Mango, are you?"

Edolie smiled coquettishly, but Nathaniel did not even spare her a glance as he wasn't interested in her at all. However, he was extremely enraged the moment he thought of the troubles Edolie stirred up. "Is that so? Let's die together then!"

Having said that, Nathaniel resolutely stepped on the accelerator and drove the car to the top of the mountain.

His speed exceeded 160km/h, and Edolie was scared to death.

"Nathaniel! Are you crazy? Stop the car!"

She slammed her hands on the driver's seat repeatedly, but this was exactly what Nathaniel wanted, so why would he stop now?

Nathaniel didn't slow down and kept accelerating instead.

Meanwhile, Edolie could feel her stomach churning in fear.

She was actually really alarmed!

She was frightened by Nathaniel's madness!

Was Nathaniel really going to kill the both of them?

The rugged mountain road passed by quickly outside the window as Nathaniel drove to the top of the mountain at full tilt. Edolie was so terrified that she started screaming.

However, Nathaniel did not give a damn about it as a cold smile appeared on his face.

"Nathaniel, I don't want to die yet! Stop the car now! I promise... I swear I'll never get you and Mango into trouble again, I mean it! Stop now!"

Edolie cried so desperately that her voice broke.

Her heart was thumping wildly, and she was shaking like a leaf as the cliff was right in front of her.

At that instant, Nathaniel suddenly felt a headache.

He wanted to step on the brake and stop the car, but an excruciating pain instantly swept over his head. He was unable to control his body, and he started getting nervous too seeing that the cliff was

approaching them...
