The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 931
Mango was conflicted for a long time. It took her so long to make a decision. While she was still thinking about whether to speak, they arrived at the hospital.
Rainie was the first to get off the car. She held onto Uncle Blu, and Mango followed behind her.
They went to the doctor's office and explained the situation of Uncle Blu. Then, Mango arranged the hospitalization procedures.
After everything was done, Rainie glanced at her watch and said, "I have something to deal with, so I have to leave for a while. I have hired a nurse, and she will come in a moment. I will write you an IOU later. Don't refuse."
Mango nodded.
Rainie was a stubborn person. Since this was the case, she did not have to act like she was mighty.
Seeing Mango nod her head, Rainie laughed bitterly and said, "Why don't you ask me where I'm going?"
"I believe that any decision you make has been carefully considered. You are not an impulsive woman, and you have your own thoughts. Hence, you know what you want to do and what you need.
As a friend, all I can do is to help and support you when you need me to. I will not ask or say anything else, but you must take care of yourself. Remember, no matter what, I will always be there to support you.' Mango held Rainie's hand and said.
Rainie's eyes were a little teary.
"Thank you, Mango. I know that you had a hard time after Kolton kidnapped you, and I also know about your current condition. Don't worry. I will take good care of myself. So, you should take good care of yourself too. I probably won't have much time to help you with your matters."
"No need. Just do whatever you have to do. We don't need things like this between us."
Rainie nodded and left after saying a few words to Uncle Blu.
Even after she left the hospital, Mango did not tell her about Thomas's car accident.
Looking at Rainie's delicate back, Mango couldn't help but let out a sigh.
After arranging everything for Uncle Blu, she went to Thomas's ward.
"How is it going?"
Nathaniel saw Mango coming over and looked behind her. He said, "He's been sent to the ICU, but he hasn't woken up yet. Did you find Rainie?" "I found her, but I didn't tell her about it."
Mango sighed and said in a low voice, "Things are not easy for Rainie now. Denver can't take care of himself, and Uncle Blu is still in the same condition. If you tell her about Thomas's current situation, what can she do? Right now, she's so stressed that she can't even stand up. If you tell her about Thomas, I'm afraid it'll be the last straw."
Nathaniel's brows were slightly furrowed. He wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
"What's wrong? Do you think I made the wrong choice?"
"No."
Nathaniel took a deep breath and whispered, "Thomas may be in a coma and vegetative state forever."
"What?"
Mango was dumb founded.
"What! Why is he in such a serious condition? How did he get into a car accident? Did someone hit him, or did he hit himself?"
"The driver who caused the accident escaped. There was no surveillance video over there, so we couldn't find him. I thought that Thomas was drunk, but when the police came to run a blood test, there was no alcohol. So, Thomas drove in a sober state. Argh! We can't determine how the accident happened now."
Mango was stunned as she heard Nathaniel's words.
"How could this be?"
"I don't know what happened, and I don't think any does either. Thomas has no relatives now, so I am his only relative. I have already asked a caretaker to come over. We'll pay for his medical expenses first. Although Thomas has his own company, but in this situation, he can only close down the business and freeze the funds. He doesn't have a will, and he's not awake yet, so he can't get a representative either. Also, he can't use his money."
Mango nodded her head to Nathaniel's words.
"It's up to you. But if that's the case, then I think I need to tell Rainie. She can decide what to do herself.."
Mango's heart ached for Rainie, but she had no choice but to tell her this news.
She walked out of the ward and thought for a long time before finally calling Rainie.
There seemed to be some noise on Rainie's side as the latter sounded like she was on the bus.
"Mango, what happened? Is there something wrong with my father?"
Rainie was extremely worried.
The words were stuck in Mango's throat, but she had no choice. She had to tell her.
"No. It's about Thomas. Rainie, listen to me.
Something happened to Thomas."
Mango told Rainie about Thomas's situation.
There was no sound coming from Rainie's side.
"Rainie, are you still here?"
Mango was a little worried, and then the phone Rainie hung up the phone from her end.
Nathaniel looked at Mango and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
Mango smiled and immediately put away her phone.
Did Rainie completely not care about Thomas anymore?
Or perhaps she hadn't managed to process everything yet?
Mango didn't know.
Nathaniel held her hand and said in distress, "Well...you've worried enough today. How about I let Ned send you back first? I'll be here for
Thomas." "I'll stay a little longer because I feel a little suffocated right now. There's too much going on recently, so I need some time to accept it. By the way, aren't you going to see Kolton?" Mango still remembered what Nathaniel had said.
Nathaniel looked in the direction of Thomas's ward and said, "Thomas needs a representative to sign documents on his behalf any time. I can't go now."
"You can go. I'll keep an eye on them for a while."
"No! Your body can't withstand it."
Mango shook her head and said, "It's okay. I know my own body well. It's good to move more, but I'm a little depressed. I'll be fine as long as you come back quickly."
Nathaniel hesitated.
There was something that he wanted to find out from Kolton. After hesitating for a moment, he asked Ned to accompany Mango before leaving.
Not long after he left, Rainie came running to her while panting heavily.
"Where is he?"
Tears welled up in Rainie's eyes, causing Mango's heart to ache.
"Don't worry, he's in the ICU. Even if you go there now, he may not hear you." "No! I want to see him."
Rainie couldn't hold back her tears, and they rolled down her cheek.
Mango knew what she was feeling. When Nathaniel was on the brink of death in the hospital, she felt as if the world was ending. If she did not tell herself that she could make it through, she didn't know if she could hold on. However, there were not many changes to Thomas' condition. All the news they received so far were bad.
"Rainie, you should be stronger. Didn't you say you two broke up?"
"Argh! I said that on spur of the moment. If he's fine, it's all right if we break up. I don't want to be a burden to him. But now that he's like this, how can I break up with him?"
Rainie said as she pushed open the door and walked in.
Mango did not follow, but she waited outside.
Rainie looked at the man covered in gauze who was lying on the bed. She covered her mouth as she let out a cry. It seemed that she was afraid of disturbing him, so she subconsciously softened her footsteps and came to Thomas step by step.
She hadn't seen him for only a night. How did he
become like this?
"Thomas, can you hear me? Do you know who I am? Mango said that you're unconscious now, but I don't believe that you don't recognize my voice. You can't lie here for the rest of your life, can you? You are proud of yourself. Although you keep a low profile, I know that you do. You said that you would take me to Turkey, Paris and anywhere I wanted to go. I remember everything. I'm sorry that I told you I wanted to break up. Ah! I didn't mean it. But... but if I don't break up with you, my family will only make things difficult for you in the future. This is my responsibility, not yours. I can't be a burden to you. But how can you get revenge on me like this? How can you lie here like this?"
Rainie held Thomas's hand and whispered.
"I know you can hear me, right? Thomas, wake up, okay? I really... really don't want anything to happen to you! I hope that you can live better than me after we break up, not like now. Get up!"
She took Thomas's hand and tried to pull him up, but she failed. In the end, she leaned on Thomas and cried.
"Why is this happening? Urgh!"
The room was silent.
Thomas seemed to be asleep, and he did not show any emotions nor reactions.
Rainie cried for a while and then sat up straight. She wiped away her tears and looked at Thomas with a smile. "It's okay. If you are too tired, you can rest for a while. I'll accompany you. When you have enough rest, wake up, okay?"
Thomas still had no reaction, but Rainie quickly adjusted her mood.
She took a deep breath and said, "I know that these sufferings are temporary, and they will be over sooner or later. Don't worry, I won't be defeated. I'll come to see you every day and talk to you. Heck, I'll even wait for you! Thomas, no matter what happened to you, I am yours for a lifetime."
Rainie reached out to touch Thomas's face with a trace of love and tenderness in her eyes.
"I heard that Mango hired a caretaker for you. Alas! I can't stay here to keep you company because I have to work. But I will come here every day, so you don't have to worry."
Rainie whispered to Thomas while talking about their past and their dreams repeatedly.
Mango could not help but felt a twitch in her nose when she saw Rainie from outside the window.
She knew that Rainie would not leave Thomas. Even if Thomas could not wake up in this life, she would accompany him.
When two people loved each other deeply, there was nothing that could tear them apart. However, she only felt sorry for Rainie.
She had to take care of three men right now. If she was not strong and optimistic enough, she probably would have collapsed long ago.
Mango turned her face away as she wanted to give them some privacy. Then, she walked out alone.
Ned wanted to follow her, but she refused him. Both she and the people around her had been so unlucky during this period of time. So, she felt suffocated and wanted to walk alone. Mango walked towards the garden behind the hospital. But, she saw a familiar figure by coincidence.
Why was she here?
