The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 826

Mango sat up from Nathaniel's arm and looked at the beautiful city of Bredeforth. All of a sudden, she felt at ease.

Sure enough, home is where the heart is.

When Nathaniel noticed Mango's cheerful expression, he couldn't help but smile and ask, "Are you excited to be home?"

"Well, I feel that the air here is fresh."

"Then let's stay at home for a few more days."

"Sure."

Mango and Nathaniel were affectionately whispering to each other. Meanwhile, Haniya looked from the window with joy and exclaimed, "It's so beautiful! I didn't know that the seaside city was so picturesque." "Right, Desmond will show you around later."

Upon hearing this, Desmond frowned slightly.

"I have to protect you."

"I'll be fine with Nathan around. Take Haniya with you and get her familiar with the Ocean City so that she won't get lost when she goes out next time." Mango spoke in an indifferent tone.

Although Desmond was reluctant to do it, he didn't say anything more. It seemed that he had silently accepted Mango's order.

Nathaniel had no opinions on Mango's decision. He was contented as long as his beloved wife was happy.

After the plane landed, Nathaniel carried Mango off the plane.

Thomas was already waiting for them.

During this period of time, Thomas had taken some time off from Delilah's matter and it seemed that he was doing relatively well now.

When Mango saw that he was in a good condition, she also felt happy for him.

"Mr. and Mrs. Ye, welcome home."

Thomas took a cloak and handed it to Nathaniel.

Then, Nathaniel handed it to Haniya and let her put it over Mango's shoulder.

Mango felt warm.

"Actually, I don't need it under this weather."

However, Nathaniel was in disagreement.

"The doctor said that you stayed too long in the cold. Although it was a miracle that nothing happened to you now, it's best to keep you covered and warm for safety's sake." "Alright."

What else could Mango say?

Nathaniel had already mentioned about what the doctor said. Therefore, she shouldn't let him worry about her anymore.

After everyone got in the car, Thomas sat in the driver's seat while Mango and Nathaniel sat in the back. Meanwhile, Haniya was forced to sit with Desmond.

Nathaniel whispered, "Desmond is a stubborn person. Aren't you afraid that Haniya will be hurt by him?"

"As I said, let's just wait and see how this unfolds. Marissa has left, and Desmond's life will be over if he still can't move on from her. Now that Haniya is here, it's best if both of them can work out. If this doesn't work, it's fine too. Fate will bring them together. Besides, I'm not doing anything except asking Desmond to show her around."

Upon hearing this, Nathaniel didn't know what else to say.

Just then, Thomas asked, "Mr. Ye, are you going home?"

"Yes. Send me the company's documents later." "Alright."

The car drove back to the Ye's Mansion.

Once arrived, Thomas helped them with their luggage while Nathaniel carried Mango into the bedroom and settled down. Then, he heard Thomas knocking on the door and say, "Mr. Ye, I have something to tell you."

"Wait for me in my office."

Upon hearing this, Thomas left and did not disturb them any longer.

Mango asked curiously, "Why is Thomas looking for you?"

"It's about the company. You should take a good rest now because it's been a tiring journey today. You must be exhausted, right?"

Then, he covered her with the blanket.

Mango pulled on the blanket and said, "It's fine. You can go and do your work. I'll take care of myself. Don't worry, I'm fine. By the way, when will Sisi and Newell be back from their trip?" "About a month I guess. Why? Do you miss them?"

"Kind of. The atmosphere in the house is cheerless and dull without them here. What's more, the children are not here. I really miss them."

Nathaniel understood her feelings.

He smiled and rubbed her head gently before whispering, "When you're done resting, I'll bring you to visit the children."

"Can't we take them home? Since Isla has been arrested, everything's gonna be fine, right?"

Mango really missed her son and daughter.

Although Nathaniel knew that it wasn't easy for Mango and the children to be separated for so long. However, there were some things that he couldn't decide. Furthermore, Isla had yet to be sentenced, thus it was still a little risky.

"Let's wait a little longer. Besides, we still have to get uncle's permission."

"Well alright, go get busy then. I'll have to rest for a while, I'll talk to you later."

Mango didn't want to make things difficult for him and she didn't want him to be worried about her either. Therefore, she put on a smile and drove him away.

Nathaniel shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go. You should get some rest."

"Okay."

After Nathaniel left the room, Mango immediately fell into a deep sleep.

Once Nathaniel walked into his office, he noticed that Thomas's expression wasn't looking very pleasant. Then, he quickly closed the door. "What's wrong?"

Thomas wanted to say something, but he stopped on second thought.

"Is there anything that you can't say to me? Since when have we been distant from each other?"

Upon hearing Nathaniel's words, Thomas said in a low voice, "I want to see Delilah."

Nathaniel paused for a moment upon hearing this. However, he understood Thomas' intentions. After all, Delilah was Thomas's mother.

"If you want to see her, then go. You don't need my permission to meet her."

"I still think it's better to let you know. After all, it also involved Mrs. Ye."

Thomas' words made Nathaniel feel a little distressed.

He patted Thomas on the shoulder and whispered, "It's nothing, don't let this trivial matter destroy the brotherhood between us."

"No, Mr. Ye, I've always grateful for your kindness to me. I just wanted to see her. I thought that she had a good support system and I was at ease when she was in the Song family. I just wanted to visit her because she's my mother."

Thomas was still a little depressed.

Nathaniel nodded and said, "You're right. No matter what she did, she's the one who gave birth to you after all. Go check up on her. Mango and I won't have any problems with that."

"Mr. Ye, there's one more thing."

Thomas looked at Nathaniel and whispered, "Walter left Ocean City."

"Where did he go?"

"I don't know. He said that he went out to take a walk. He left by himself and he didn't take his mother with him."

Nathaniel was stunned for a moment when he heard this. However, he wasn't concerned about it.

"Novalee is dead. It's understandable that he's in a bad mood. There's nothing to make a fuss about if he wants to go out by himself."

"But his mom is ill, and you and Mrs. Ye both know that it was my mother who poisoned her. The doctor said that she's in critical condition and her days are numbered. Walter has always been a filial son, so it's quite strange that he left her side during this period."

Nathaniel suddenly remembered something when he heard Thomas' words.

Sophia was indeed in poor health, and the caregiver who served as the witness was actually someone found by Boden. As such, it seemed that Walter did not leave to take a break.

"Perhaps there is something else. The Song family's affairs have nothing to do with us. Although we are relatives, Walter is very capable. I guess that he didn't tell us because he doesn't want us to know. Let's just act as if we don't know. We can talk about it when he needs our help. Also, I know that you felt guilty because of what your mom did. You always wanted to make up to the Song family on behalf of your mom's wrongdoings. But Thomas, let me remind you that it was your mother's fault and you don't have to feel that you owe the Song family anything. After all, you didn't take anything from the Song family. You don't need to take the blame, do you know that?"

Nathaniel was afraid that Thomas could not get over this matter.

Thomas nodded, but Nathaniel could see that he didn't listen to the advice at all.

In fact, Thomas felt that he should take the blame and be responsible for his mother's wrongdoings.

"Go ahead. I will handle the company's matter myself. You can take a break and see Delilah."

"It's fine. I'll go and see her now. I'll be back tomorrow morning."

Thomas finished his words and walked out of the room.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel felt a little sorry for Thomas. Then, he called his bodyguards and ordered them to take care of Thomas when he visited his mom in the prison.

After that, Nathaniel turned on the computer to settle the company's business.

Thomas had taken care of the tasks in the past few days, but there were some things that needed to be dealt with by Nathaniel.

Soon, Nathaniel was completely immersed in his work.

After leaving the Ye's Mansion, Thomas was in no hurry to go to prison and he went to Sophia's house instead.

Sophia was a little surprised to see him.

"Why are you here? Is there something that Mango and Nathaniel want from me?"

Sophia didn't let him in. Perhaps she disliked him because he was Delilah's son and she was uncomfortable with their relationship.

Thomas also knew that Sophia didn't like him, so he didn't enter and he just handed over some supplements to her.

"Mrs. Song, this is for you."

"It's fine, I don't need these supplements for my age. What's the matter?"

Sophia's attitude was not very enthusiastic, but Thomas did not mind.

He whispered, "I understand that you hate my mother, and you will not forgive her no matter what I do. I don't expect you to forgive her. You are Mrs. Ye s aunt, and she is in poor health now. I have just come

to see you, that's all."

"Thank you, I'm fine. If there's nothing else, you can go back. Don't call me Mrs. Song in the future as I've divorced Carter."

Upon hearing this, Thomas was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Sophia would choose to file for divorce after 20 years of marriage. Most importantly, it was when she was about to die.

"Mr. Song, what..."

"It's none of my business. I'm a little tired and I need some rest. Please leave."

Sophia spoke as she was about to close the door.

Thomas quickly threw the supplements through the door before he turned around and left.

"Hey, your supplements..."

When Sophia chased after Thomas, he had already got into the car.

Sophia sighed as she looked at the supplements in her hand.

Delilah was such a vicious woman. How could she have such an excellent son?

She turned around and went back to her house. After a moment of hesitation, she took the supplements with her.

After Thomas left Sophia's home, he went directly to meet his mother in the prison.

The police were polite and welcoming upon his arrival thanks to Nathaniel's orders. However, Thomas received an unexpected response when he mentioned that he wanted to meet Delilah.

Delilah had been released on bail.

Upon hearing this, Thomas was puzzled.

"Who's the person who bailed her out? All the evidence were against her and she was not qualified to be released from prison. How did this happen?"
