The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 741

Mango and Nathaniel went one round to visit the city. When they saw some people following them from behind, they looked at each other and smiled.

"Do you think that Bosco is afraid of your power, or what? Why would he still have the guts to follow us?"

Mango asked in a somewhat casual way.

Then, Nathaniel said coldly, "He just has too much time to spare."

Nathaniel directly picked up a durian and threw it at the people behind them as he was speaking.

"Oh my!"

The man wailed and immediately lay down.

Nathaniel said unwelcomingly, "Go back and tell Bosco not to blame me if I'm rude to him if he continues to follow us."

After saying that, Nathaniel turned around and saw Mango giving some money to the owner of the fruit stall.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, we can't hold it back anymore... I'll give you 200 dollars for this durian, okay? Is it enough?"

The middle-aged man at the fruit stall was still a little angry at first, but he mellowed out when he saw Mango voluntarily handing over the money. "Enough, enough. It doesn't even worth 200 as that durian isn't that heavy."

"It's okay, you can take it. We'll also buy some salak and mangosteen, okay?"

Mango seemed really approachable and it made the fruit stall owner very happy.

"Of course you can, just pick as you like."

"Let me do it."

Nathaniel took a step forward, but Mango slapped his hands away and said, "Do you know how to do it?"

Then, Nathaniel was stunned at once.

He really had no clue when it came to picking fruits.

The owner looked at him and said with a smile, "This is how you pick a good fruit."

Initially, Mango wanted to say that there was no need for him to do it, but Nathaniel was listening to the owner with a serious expression as he followed the boss's instructions and picked the fruits. At this time, Nathaniel was just like an ordinary man although he was actually the boss of HY

Group.

Mango felt that this moment was too good to be true and she was very happy.

"Sir, how much is this?"

Just as Mango was admiring Nathaniel, she suddenly heard a familiar voice.

She turned around abruptly and saw a familiar figure walking towards the alley next to her.

Then, Mango quickly followed from behind.

"Thank you, sir. Mango, let's pay now."

Nathaniel picked up the fruits and turned around, but Mango was nowhere to be seen.

"Mango? Mango!"

Nathaniel suddenly became really nervous.

So, the owner quickly said, "Sir, I saw your wife followed a woman to that alley."

"Thank you, boss."

Nathaniel put down the fruit and ran quickly toward the direction pointed by the boss.

Soon, he caught up with Mango at the corner.

"Mango, what are you doing? Don't you know that I will be worried if you just run away without letting me know? Do you really think that you are a combat goddess?" Nathaniel's heart was pounding.

He had nearly gone crazy just now when he found out that Mango was missing.

However, Mango grabbed his hand and said, "I seem to have seen Bettany just now."

"Who?"

"Bettany."

Mango's words stunned Nathaniel for a moment and only then did he realize who Bettany was.

"You didn't see wrongly, did you?"

"I don't think so as it must be her, but why is she here?"

At that instant, Mango thought of Desmond's panic expression and Abyss's doubt alongside Bettany's disappearance for no reason.

So far, there was no conclusion to Marissa's death.

Mango tried her best to look for Bettany in order to save Nathaniel, but she couldn't find her. However, now that Nathaniel was cured, Bettany suddenly appeared here unexpectedly. "Where is she?"

Nathaniel looked at the deserted alley and asked in confusion.

Then, Mango shook her head and said, "I lost her. I was just a few steps behind before she disappeared, but I can guarantee that she's living in this alley."

"You don't want to search for her from door to door, do you?"

Nathaniel couldn't help but ask when he saw Mango's expression.

"You looked for her previously to cure my illness and now that I've fully recovered, it's not necessary for us to find her anymore. Moreover, Bettany's disappearance might have something to do with the affairs o the Fang family and even if we put aside what happened to them, there are not many people who can make Bettany go into hiding. In this case, I hope you don't get into trouble. Mango, don't you know that I won't be able to bear it if anything happens to you?"

Nathaniel knew that he might be selfish if he said so. Perhaps Desmond had always wanted to find Bettany to investigate the cause of Marissa's death, but he did not want to put Mango in danger because of others.

He was particularly careful and timid now.

The only person he wanted to protect in his entire life was Mango.

Mango could hear Nathaniel's worry and she sensed the uneasiness in his voice.

All of a sudden, she felt that she might have acted too carelessly.

Nathaniel was right.

Bettany was no longer important to them.

It didn't matter why she left the Fang family, or why she was hiding here as it didn't have much to do with Mango, wasn't it?

Mango held Nathaniel's hand, only to discover that his palm was sweaty.

"I promise you, I will stop investigating and forget about it. Let's go back and take the fruit, but as a friend, I have to tell Desmond that Bettany is here. You don't have any objection to this, do you?"

"No."

Nathaniel felt a sense of relief when he heard that Mango no longer wanted to interfere in this matter.

Then, Mango followed Nathaniel and left the place.

What she did not know was that the moment she turned around, she would regret it for the rest of her life.

Soon, Nathaniel brought Mango back to the fruit stall and he said with a smile, "Sir, are our fruits still here?" "Yes, they're all here."

The owner handed the fruits to Mango and

Nathaniel.

Mango gave him the money before leaving this place with Nathaniel.

Afterward, the two of them strolled around for a while before they returned to Longford Country by plane.

The ancestral temple was fully renovated and the workers hired by Nathaniel had also arrived.

When Mango saw that Henry was here, she couldn't help but pause for a moment.

"Didn't you go back to school?"

"Yes, I've gone back and I told my supervisor that I will take a vacation as this is my hometown after all. Besides, my parents are buried here, so I want to keep an eye on them when they repair our ancestral temple. I'll also refurbish our old house by myself so that we'll still have a shelter when my sister comes back."

Henry said with a grin.

However, Mango thought of Novalee the moment she saw Henry,.

She couldn't help but ask, "Henry, do you know how your sister has been doing these years?"

"She's always at work and she gave me most of her income as she's reluctant to spend it on herself. I really hope that my sister can think more for herself and it'll be great if she can find a boyfriend." Henry's words caused Mango to ponder for a moment before she asked, "What if she has found a boyfriend?"

"That's impossible as my sister would definitely tell me at the first moment if she has a boyfriend. This is what we have agreed on."

"Maybe she really found one but she hasn't told you about it yet?"

"Mrs. Ye, you don't understand my sister. She's only left with one family member and I will be the first to know if she really has a boyfriend."

Then, Henry smiled and took out his phone, "Well, we'll know after I ask my sister since you don't believe me."

Henry had already called Novalee before Mango could stop him.

"Novalee, have you found a boyfriend?"

On the other side, Novalee was stunned for a moment and she walked outside with her phone before asking softly, "Why are you asking me this question? Did you hear rumors from someone else?" "Who said that? I am just asking as you are not young anymore and you will become an old lady if you don't find a boyfriend. I don't want to serve you later on as that's not fair." "You brat, how can you abandon me now? Let me tell you, you have to spend the rest of your life with me even if I don't find a boyfriend, okay?"

Novalee's tone sounded much more cheerful.

"Alright, alright, I'll take care of you in your old age... So? You still don't have a boyfriend, do you?"

Henry's question made Novalee look at the ward and then she whispered, "Well, I don't have a boyfriend... You will be the first to know if I found a boyfriend."

At that moment, Mango's expression darkened a little as she was standing side and she heard Novalee's reply.

Novalee was clearly in a relationship with Walter, but why did she hide it from Henry?

On the other hand, Henry didn't know anything, so he smiled and said, "Come on, Novalee, you should quickly find a partner and it doesn't matter who he is as long as he treats you good."

"It's none of your business. Anyway, I heard that there is a female student at school who likes you, so what do you think? Do you like her? If you do, tell me, as I will prepare some betrothal gifts for you." "Novalee, don't worry about me as I will make money for myself if I want to get married. You take good care of yourself. Well, let's meet up soon as I haven't seen you for a long time."

Henry's words made Novalee feel a little nervous suddenly.

"Better not... I don't want to distract you from your studies. Let's talk about it after you graduate."

"Novalee, I can ask for a leave and I haven't seen you for a long time... I really miss you."

"I miss you too, but it's really inconvenient for me now as I'm on a business trip and I can't go back to see you."

Novalee said quickly.

Then, Henry said as if he didn't care, "It doesn't matter as I can go and find you."

"Henry, I'm at work and I'm not on a vacation, so don't come here as it's not good if my colleagues see you. Listen to me, you should study hard. It won't be long before I finish my work and go back to find you, okay?"

"Alright then."

Henry was still talking to Novalee, but Mango couldn't listen to their conversation anymore.

Why did Novalee not let Henry know about Walter's existence?

Was Walter not good enough?

He was rich, powerful, and handsome, so why was Novalee afraid of letting Henry meet Walter?

At that moment, Mango was very worried.

However, Nathaniel pulled Mango over and whispered, "Believe in Walter as I'm sure that he can settle this himself."

"However, falling in love can make a person stupid."

"Not Walter as he might get hurt, but he would never let himself lose everything. After all, he knew from the beginning that Novalee approached him with a purpose. Although he can't help it, I don't believe that Walter didn't have any backups for himself. Mango, we can't do anything now and we have done everything we should do. That's enough."

Nathaniel knew that Mango was worried about Walter.

Novalee seemed very suspicious in this conversation, but Walter already knew this, so it was up to him to decide what he wanted to do.

At that instant, Mango suddenly felt a little depressed.

"I really hope that Walter won't get hurt."
