The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 779

Walter knitted his brows together as the car behind followed them really closely.

"Are these people Delilah's men? I have the urge to get down the car and beat them to death."

"There's no need to rush as I'll give you the time to show off your skills later."

Walter was stunned by Mango's words.

"What do you mean?"

"Just wait and see."

Mango drove the car toward a remote place mysteriously.

The car stopped and Mango smiled as she said before Walter could react, "It's time for you to save the damsel in distress... Didn't you want to beat them up? Go ahead and show 'em your skills as there are no cameras here."

Walter understood in an instant.

"What a great idea."

He got out of the car with a smile.

Walter had been suppressing his emotions all this while and he could no longer bear it. He felt extremely upset deep down especially when he recalled how Novalee's bones were all broken due to someone else's torture.

What grudge did the person have against Novalee that she had to bully her to such an extent!

Novalee eventually didn't inflict any harm on him although she did take advantage of him and schemed against him. Rather, Walter was smoldering with anger deep down because of how Delilah treated him. On the other hand, Mango did not stop him nor did she get involved.

She leaned against the door after getting off the car and a wicked smile appeared on her face as she looked at the vehicle that stopped less than 100 meters away from them.

The people in the car hesitated whether to leave or to stay when they saw Mango and Walter got out of the car. However, Walter went straight to knock on their window without giving them another second to think it through.

"Get out of the car!"

"Ah?"

The men in the car were confused.

"I said get off the car! I don't want to repeat it a third time."

Walter's expression seemed unfriendly as he wasn't good at controlling his temper to begin with.

The few people looked at each other before leaving the car but they regretted the moment they did so as Walter's fists were strong and unrelenting.

Walter didn't show any mercy to them as he had been really depressed these few days and he turned a deaf ear to their cries and pleads.

After beating up a few of them, Walter's mood was lifted and he was enlivened.

"Are you feeling a little better?"

Mango asked with a smile.

"I feel much better... Did you come up with this whole plan deliberately just to let me vent my anger?"

Walter wiped his sweat as he felt much more relaxed.

Mango shook her head and said, "I'm not that bored, though I figured that Delilah has been looking for Henry all this while as the only person she could take advantage of is him now that Novalee is dead. However, Novalee refused to tell her where he is, so she would surely ask someone to keep an eye on us so that she could tail us and kidnap Henry when we found him. Anyhow, well first need to get rid of her subordinates if that's the case and I know that you've been in a bad mood recently, so it's the perfect time for you to vent your anger."

At that instant, Walter smiled.

"You are truly the one who knows me best."

"It's not a big deal. Anyway, let's so to Henry now that we've gotten rid of those men."

Mango was the first to get into the car.

Walter hopped into the car without hesitation and he felt relieved both physically and mentally after his exertion just now.

Mango started the engine and Walter realized that they were heading for the city center once again.

"Mango, you're going the wrong way, aren't you?"

"No, Henry's in the city center and I drove the car to the suburbs earlier just to give them the wrong idea. Henry would be in danger if they figured out his whereabouts, isn't it?"

Walter looked at Mango as he shook his head and said, "You're really becoming like Nathaniel... Did you learn this from him in the past few years? That's not good as you're no longer the naive Mango I know!" "Shut up!"

Mango scolded him with a beam as she drove the car to the house that was situated opposite the

Song family's place.

"What are you doing? Are you intending to get Delilah into trouble?"

"No, Henry is living right opposite your house."

Walter was dumbfounded after hearing Mango's words.

"Right opposite our house?"

"Yeah, Novalee said that it's difficult to detect what's around you and Delilah would never expect that the person she has been looking for would be living opposite her house." Mango got off of the car having said that.

However, Walter frowned.

He didn't know what to say as he got out of the car and followed Mango into the opposite house.

Mango took out the key to open the door and the entire house was noiseless.

Walter frowned and asked, "There doesn't seem to be anyone here."

"He's locked in the room."

Mango sighed.

In fact, Novalee went all out to hide Henry.

Mango went to a room before she took out the key to unlock the door and they saw that Henry had passed out in bed.

"What's going on?"

"Carry him on your shoulder and we'll send him to the hospital as he must have fainted with hunger." Mango nudged her shoulders to signal Walter.

Walter did not utter a word as he carried Henry on his shoulder and went out of the room in an instant.

He deliberately took a glance at his house when he was at the door and he was extremely furious deep down although he didn't see Delilah.

However, Walter heard a familiar voice after he put Henry in the car.

"Walter? What are you doing here? Why didn't you enter the house now that you're back home?"

Walter's body was frozen at the spot when he heard Carter's voice.

He turned around before looking at Carter and his fury sprang to life all of a sudden.

"Why should I go home? Is that my home? Isn't that Delilah's and your home?"

"Why are you throwing a fit so early in the morning? Anyway, I heard that your mother has recovered?"

Carter suppressed his temper as he wanted to ask about the matter.

Yet, Walter laughed out of the blue.

"How ironic! You didn't even care to show your concern when my mother was missing yet now you're asking about my mother's situation...who do you think you are?" "Walter, how can you say that? I am your father!"

"Do you think that you would still be standing here in front of me if you weren't my father? You and Delilah are partners in crime and you're no different from her!" Walter's words completely irritated Carter.

"You unfilial son!"

Carter attempted to hit Walter but Walter grabbed his wrist in an instant as he said coldly, "Don't treat me as a seven-year-old child as I am already in my twenties! Regardless of my mother's personality, you've never cared about her in the past few years yet you're asking me about her now? You're such a hypocrite! Or is it the one you live with who told you to ask about my mom?

"What do you mean?"

It was visible from Carter's expression that he was stupefied.

"Stop putting up a show in front of me! Isn't it obvious that Delilah desperately wishes my mom to die as soon as possible? Don't try to act as if you know nothing when you're with me as I'm sure that Delilah wouldn't have acted so boldly if you didn't tolerate her! Just wait and see as justice will always prevail and Delilah's good days will soon come to an end!"

Walter got into the car after saying those words.

At that instant, Carter realized that something was wrong.

"Walter, tell me clearly what's going on! What's wrong with Delilah?"

At that moment, Mango walked over and said in a low voice, "Uncle Song, I think you should know about everything that had happened but it's not the right time now. Come to the Central Hospital when you're free and I'll let you know about it once Henry is rescued."

"Who is Henry? What the hell is going on here?"

Carter felt like a fool as he had no idea what had happened and he couldn't grasp the situation. Moreover, the way Walter talked to him was really strange and Mango's words further left him in a daze. Mango let out a sigh as she felt rather sorry for Carter when she recalled the conversation between Yu Wei and Delilah.

Carter gave up his wife and child all for this woman yet it turned out in the end that his kid wasn't his biological son and his partner wasn't his true wife either.

"Uncle Song, you can come if you have time but if you aren't free, just forget it."

That was all Mango could say.

"Why did you tell him so much? I don't believe that he is clueless as he sleeps on the same bed with Delilah."

Walter rolled down the car window and Carter felt extremely upset seeing the anger and disgust on Walter's face.

"What the hell is going on? Walter Song, what happened? Can you explain it to me clearly? You give me such an attitude every single time since the past even though I have no idea what had happened... Can't you at least give me an explanation?"

Mango hurriedly said when she saw how crestfallen Carter was, "Uncle Song, come to the hospital when you're free as we don't have the time to explain it to you now since we have to save the patient urgently."

"Alright, I'll be there in a moment."

"Come by yourself and don't tell Mrs. Song about it. Don't question me why as you'll know the reason later."

Carter figured something out suddenly after hearing Mango's words.

"Alright."

He nodded before returning home.

Walter said in a low voice when Mango got on the car, "Why did you tell him so much? I'm sure that he knows something."

"What if he really has no idea? Walter, you should give him a chance and at least let him know what he did wrong even if you can't forgive him. Also, I think that Auntie might divorce him after this incident." Walter was completely stunned upon hearing Mango's words.

He had always addressed Delilah as Mrs. Song throughout the years as she was just a mistress and they were still a family in law. However, Walter was in a trance the moment he heard from Mango that Sophie might very likely be divorcing Carter.

It was as if his dreams were shattering and his family was breaking apart at that instant.

Walter was incredibly crestfallen as he had just lost Novalee and now he was going to lose his family.

"My mother said that?"

"It's just my guess but I am also a woman. Auntie has been muddleheaded in the past few years as she didn't want to face the reality. However, she has no choice but to confront the reality now and I have a hunch that their marriage is coming to an

end."

Walter became increasingly heavy-hearted as he was aware that women knew each other best.

"You don't want them to divorce, do you?"

Mango asked as she noticed that Walter's expression seemed gloomy.

"It makes no difference whether they divorce or not, isn't it?"

Mango knew that Walter didn't have the same thoughts deep down although he said so, though she had no means of comforting him at the moment.

She sighed softly as she started the engine and headed for the Central Hospital. Later, Mango and Walter got off the car when they arrived at the entrance of the hospital only to find a person walking toward them in a hurry.
