The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 775
"Novalee."
Mango called out to her. She saw the wonder in Novalee's eyes, and said in a low voice, "You're a good sister."
These words immediately made Novalee burst into tears.
For the rest of her life, she had lived for her brother. For her brother and the sake of her parents' reputation, she had lost herself and sold herself, which turned her lifeless. No one liked her. Novalee felt that she didn't waste her life as she received Mango's recognition.
"Thank you, Mango. Really, thank you."
"Have a good trip."
Mango didn't know what else to say. She couldn't see Novalee like this, so she turned around and left the ward.
A lot of choices were made by ourselves. Even if she admitted that Novalee was a good sister, she could not deny that Novalee hurt her and Walter.
When Walter saw Mango came out, he asked concern, "How did it went? Did she do anything to you?"
"No, let's go out for a walk."
Mango's words made Walter hesitated.
"But Novalee, she..."
"Aren't there people from Song family here? It'll be alright. My heart is in a mess. Let's go."
Walter couldn't refuse Mango's request.
He nodded his head and walked out of the corridor of the ward side by side with Mango.
Mango looked at the sky outside and said in a low voice, "It's really hard to imagine that you and I are actually cousins."
"It's okay if you don't want to admit it, I can't wait for you to deny it."
Walter said jokingly.
Mango glared at him and said, "Don't blame yourself for what happened to Novalee. Some people are destined to walk a different path than us. You've been really good to her."
"I know, but I still feel a little sad in my heart. Maybe I am destined to be a lonely person and die alone."
"Don't talk nonsense. It's just that your fate has yet to come."
Mango was afraid that Walter had other burdens that he was keeping in him, so she couldn't help but comfort him.
Walter shook his head and said, "Some things can't be decided by fate, you and I are an example of it. I always thought that I would end up you, but we end up being cousins. It's so harsh! Why can't my mom do it before, she crushed all my hopes now."
"You're talking nonsense again. Since we're talking about this, I hadn't receive any news from my mom for a long time. I called her a few times but didn't get through. I have already contacted Merle to investigate it. I don't know where my mother is now."
There was a hint of worry in Mango's eyes.
Walter patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, aunt will be fine. Maybe she just wants a change of environment and mood. She simply doesn't want to answer the phone. After all, the thing you had really made her difficult."
"Maybe. I just hope that she's fine."
Mango sighed.
The wind felt pleasant as it blew on her face.
Walter still felt a stir in his heart as he looked at Mango's face.
He couldn't dream about this woman anymore. After all, she was his cousin.
Fate was really strange at times and was also very difficult to accept, but he had to.
Mango seemed to sensed Walter's gaze. She turned to look at Walter and said with a smile, "What are you looking at?"
"I'm looking at you. I can't even look at you like this in the future."
Mango smiled.
"You need to stop whatever it is you're feeling. Auntie is not well now. I know that you may be depressed because of Novalee. Why don't you take Auntie to travel and relax?" Walter shook his head when he heard Mango's suggestion.
"No, I'm not that fragile. By the way, didn't you say you have something to tell me?"
Just then, the nurse quickly ran over.
"Mr. Song, Miss Zhang has passed away."
"What?"
Walter was completely dumbfounded.
How could it be that fast?
It seemed impossible judging by how Novalee looked just now.
A hint of doubt flashed across his eyes as he looked at Mango.
"Do you suspect that I did something to her? I don't like her, and hated her a little. But I won't do anything to a dying person."
Walter also felt that he had gone too far.
He hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'll go and have a look now."
"I'll go with you."
Mango was calmer than Walter was.
Perhaps it was because she had known Novalee's choice in advance, or because she knew her final fate, Mango's heart was a little heavy, but she was able to bear it. Walter intended to refuse at first, but after looking at Mango, he nodded his head.
When they arrived at the ward, Novalee had already stopped breathing.
The breathing machine had stopped.
Doctor Abarough stood at the side and said sadly, "Sorry, we tried our best, but she suddenly had a heart failure, and we can't do anything about it." Before Walter could say anything, Mango took out her phone and called the police.
Mitchell looked a little panicked.
"Mrs. Ye, what are you doing?"
"You don't have to worry about what I'm doing. All you have to know is that from now on, till the police arrive, you're required to stay in this room."
Mango's attitude was resolute. It caused Walter's brows to furrow slightly.
"What's going on?"
"Don't talk. You'll know when the time comes."
Mango said faintly before turning her gaze somewhere else.
Mitchell was full on panicking right now.
"Mrs. Ye, I have an operation later. It's completely nonsense if you don't let me leave."
"I have already let someone inform the director to change the doctor. So, doctor Abarough, you don't have to worry. You won't hold up other people's surgery, only your time would be hold up." Mango faked a smile as she watches the guilty look on Mitchell's face.
Mitchell was even more uneasy because of this.
"Mrs. Ye, we really tried our best to save her. Everyone here can prove it."
"I know. I didn't say that you didn't do your best to rescue her. I just said that we'll talk about it after the police come."
Mango refused to reveal anything.
Mitchell found excuses to leave multiple times, but Mango refused to compromise.
Only then did Walter realize that Mitchell was a little suspicious.
"You won't be afraid if you hadn't do anything, right?"
When Walter looked at Mitchell, his face was terribly flustered, and he even looked like he wanted to run out of here.
"Is there another story behind Novalee's death?"
Walter's eyebrows furrowed tightly.
Mitchell immediately calmed himself down when he noticed that Walter was watching him. He smiled lightly, but his palm was sweating.
"Is there something you're hiding from me?"
Walter stared at Mitchell which made him hard to breathe.
"Mr. Song, don't make fun of me. How can I hide something from you?"
"Is that so? You better not let me found out anything, otherwise..."
Walter sneered, but it was enough to make Andrea tremble.
The police came right on time.
"Who called the police? What's wrong?"
"I called the police. Someone committed murder here!"
Mango said hurriedly.
They still couldn't identify who Mango was.
"Mrs. Ye, what is all of this?"
The police officer looked at Mango and asked.
Mango pointed at Mitchell and said it word by word, "I accused him of murdering Novalee."
"Mrs. Ye, you can't talk nonsense. I am a doctor, how could I..."
"Let Novalee tell us what really happened."
Mitchell almost pissed his pants as he listened to Mango's word
"What do you mean? Mrs. Ye, what are you talking about?"
Mango didn't say anything else. She walked straight to Novalee's bed and took out a listening device from under the bed.
She turned on the audio monitor. After a while, Andrea's voice came out.
"Novalee, why are you so reckless? Why do you still fight against her when you know she was the one that helped you achieve all of these? The last time we sent someone to kill Sophia, you went to save her. Why? Did she accept your kindness and let you marry her son? It's all pointless now."
Novalee coughed twice and said, "What do you mean? Are you going to kill me? I'm already in this state. I can't live long. You still won't let me go?"
"You do know that if you live one more minute, she will not be at ease for a minute. We can't risk you telling Walter anymore secrets. Or else our plan will be over. You've hide your brother and we can't find him Do you think we will still keep you in this world?"
Mitchell's voice came again.
Novalee coughed violently and said, "I've done so much for you. Now that you've broken all the bones in my body, I'm nothing but a useless human, yet you still wanted to kill me. Won't you get karma?" "Naha, karma? If there is such thing, the first person to get karma would have died a long time ago. But she's still alive isn't she? Novalee, don't blame me. I have to rely on her to survive! Don't worry, I will add some medicine into your IV. You won't feel too much pain. It will only take a few minutes for you to feel numb. It's a gift for me to get to know you."
Mitchell's voice was heard as he spoke.
Novalee said with a wry smile, "Delilah is really cruel! After all the things I've done for her, she wouldn't let me die peacefully. But I believe there is justice, and she will get her karma soon!" "You better go now first. Novalee, have a good trip!"
Novalee struggled, but she couldn't fight against him. Some struggling sound came from the device, and it immediately made Walter's veins jump out.
"You b*stard!"
He punched the bridge of Mitchell's nose, and a warm stream of blood splashed out immediately.
"Murderer! Police, do something!"
Mitchell was so scared that he quickly covered his bleeding nose and ran to the police.
"It's all a lie! What an accusation! That voice doesn't belong to me! It's really not me!"
Mango sneered and took out a camera from the painting on the wall.
"Mitchell, would you like to watch the surveillance video?"
Mitchell immediately sat paralyzed on the ground as he saw this.
He knew that he was doomed.
There was a hint of anger in Walter's eyes as he looked at Mango.
