The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) -
Chapter 951
However, Nathaniel bumped into Rainie at the door.
"What's wrong with Mango?"
Nathaniel said coldly, "She has a fever"
"A fever? D*mn it, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have gone out with her yesterday, let alone bring her to a bar to sing."
Rainie's words made Nathaniel stop abruptly.
"What did you say? Mango was with you at the bar?"
Nathaniel's expression was scary enough to make Rainie jump in fright. She blurted out, "That's... that's right, we sang together in the beginning. But, after that, Mango said that she felt a little uncomfortable and went to the bathroom by herself."
"What time was that?"
Rainie felt a little helpless when she heard Nathaniel asking such detailed questions.
"Huh? How would I know? But when we came up to the stage, I took a glance at my cell phone and saw that it was past two am. About 2.05 pm?
Hearing Rainie's words, Nathaniel looked even
upset.
2.05 pm?
He and Chloe had come into the bar at ten past two. Did Mango see them?
So, Mango became upset at him because of this?
"D*mn it!" He thought.
Right now, he really wanted to drag Chloe out of the sea and torture her all over again!
Rainie apologized profusely when she could sense that Nathaniel was furious again. She thought that she had caused Mango to fall ill, "I'm sorry, I promise I won't do it again."
"It has nothing to do with you. Anyway, let's go to the hospital together so that you can take care of her."
"What?"
Rainie thought that she had heard wrongly.
Why would he let her take care of Mango?
Back then, Nathaniel would take care of her personally.
Suddenly, Mango's words about Nathaniel having another affair immediately crossed her mind.
Rainie's eyes narrowed in an instant.
"Nathaniel, are you seeing someone else other than Mango?"
"No, I'm not."
Nathaniel replied very firmly. He then walked away without paying attention to Rainie.
Rainie was slightly stunned.
Nathaniel was not a liar. Furthermore, she could tell that he wouldn't cheat on Mango because he cared too much about her! Rainie did not understand the whole situation, but she followed him as she was concerned about Mango.
Nathaniel carried Mango to Eugene's house.
"Where is Emberly?"
Eugene was understandably flustered. After all, the first thing Nathaniel did after entering his house was to look for his wife!
"Excuse me, why are you looking for my wife? Am I invisible to you?"
"Look, stop spouting nonsense! My wife has a fever, so I wanted to get Emberly to take a look at her."
Nathaniel placed Mango gently onto the sofa.
By this time, Mango had already passed out again from the fever.
Eugene sighed and said, "It's true that my wife is a renowned international surgeon, but she specializes in surgical procedures. Besides, she
just came back from an operation, and she's sleeping. It's just a fever, so can't you send her to the hospital?"
"There are too many bacteria in the hospital. My wife is pregnant, and she's too precious, so I don't want to risk anything."
"Heh. So your wife is precious, but my wife should work tirelessly for you?"
Eugene did not like what he heard at all.
Nathaniel did not bicker with him, but he asked directly, "Can she help me or not?"
"No. My wife just did an operation for your brother-in-law last night. It was almost midnight when she came back. She was called for another emergency operation at five o'clock this morning, and she already did three consecutive operations in a day! Now she finally came back and barely laid down, so you want me to wake her up again? Nathaniel, can't you have some compassion? All she has is a fever, and she's probably down with a fever, so she doesn't need a surgeon for that. You can go to the hospital, or how about I call my family doctor for you?"
Eugene had intended to make the phone call in the midst of their conversation. Then, he heard a sound in the room upstairs. Suddenly, Emberly walked out of the room while rustling her hair slightly. "What's going on?"
"Nothing. Go back to sleep."
Eugene replied to her immediately.
Emberly's eyes shifted towards the silhouette of Mango.
"What's wrong with Mango?"
While speaking, she got up and walked down the stairs.
Eugene's face darkened.
"Go back to sleep. Don't worry, well be fine. I'll call the family doctor, and they'll arrive soon."
"What's the point of doing that? By the time he arrives, Mango's fever would have gotten worse. It may also affect the fetus. Go fetch my medical kit in the guest room."
Emberly walked to Mango's side and touched her forehead with both hands. Then, she frowned when she felt how warm Mango was.
"Why is she burning up?"
Nathaniel pursed his lips and did not speak, but Emberly caught the guilt in his eyes.
"Did you bully her?"
"It's all a misunderstanding, but I can't explain it."
Nathaniel's words made Eugene feel upset.
"It's my first time seeing you two quarrel like this."
"We didn't quarrel nor bicker, and she never interrogated me either."
Nathaniel looked even worse than before.
Emberly sighed slightly and said, "Mango is a person who hides everything in her heart. A woman like this will always receive the short end of the stick. You know how she is, so you should avoid hurting her again in the future."
"You're right."
Nathaniel was not a person who listened to other people. Yet, Emberly's words seemed to have struck a chord, and he had taken her advice to heart too.
Eugene grew angry when he saw that.
"No, you guys..."
"Hey! I told you to go get my first aid kit, so why do you have so much to say?"
Emberly turned around and stared at Eugene. He felt a tinge of dismay staring into her beautiful eyes.
"Emberly, I'm your husband, not your maid."
"Hah! You' re not even as good as a maid. The maid would've brought the kit here already."
"How dare you!"
Eugene felt that Emberly always made him angry.
He angrily flung his hands in vain and left.
Rainie was worried that Eugene wouldn't go, so she quickly said, "Let me get it. Where is the guest room?"
"It's okay, he's just throwing a tantrum."
Nathaniel did not move his eyes away from Mango's face while he said that.
Rainie didn't understand what was going on, but Emberly didn't bother to explain. Then, Eugene came out with a medicine box.
"Here."
Eugene's awkward look was ignored by Emberly.
She quickly took the medicine box and started treating Mango without glancing at Eugene.
Eugene said in a low voice, "Emberly, why are you so arrogant? I'm the president of the Sanchez Group, yet you treat me like your servant. Heh. Are you doing this because you know that you're precious to me?"
"Who else is precious to you then? Hmm?"
Emberly suddenly turned around, and her sharp gaze fell on Eugene's face.
"My daughter?"
"Get lost!"
Emberly yelled at him, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.
Rainie observed their interaction and felt a twinge of sadness.
If Thomas was alright now, would they be as happy as them?
No!
They wouldn't!
She would leave Thomas and not cause him any more trouble.
Thinking of Thomas, who was still unconscious in the hospital, Rainie would rather break up with him if she knew this would happen.
Emberly quickly lowered Mango's temperature. However, Mango's mood was not stable.
"She's subconsciously resisting the treatment, which is not good for her recovery. I don't care if there is any misunderstanding that cannot be explained, but you need her to make her feel better. I can cure colds and fever, but I can't treat her heart. There are many empty rooms in the house, so you can stay here. You can leave once she recovers."
Emberly made this decision promptly.
Eugene snorted coldly as a sign of protest. However, he did not say anything.
Nathaniel ignored Eugene's cold snort and said faintly, "Well go straight to the guest room then."
"You're really welcome."
Eugene was unhappy that Nathaniel and his wife intruded on the private time for him and Emberly.
Nathaniel said lightly, "By the way, Eugene, send someone to take Denver and Ned here."
"What? You're ordering me too?"
Eugene felt that this situation was too absurd!
Fortunately, Emberly got up and kissed him on his cheek before saying faintly, "I can only sleep peacefully after they are well taken care of."
Eugene immediately stopped protesting.
"What do you want to eat for lunch?"
"Whatever you like."
Emberly waved and then went upstairs.
Eugene's eyes were full of tenderness. When Emberly disappeared into the door of the bedroom, he turned his head and looked at Nathaniel's back with disgust and said, "Urgh! I'll take the international development project that you tendered."
"It's all yours. I'll give it to you as a fee for your wife's treatment."
Nathaniel was not bothered at all.
Rainie could not help but feel surprised. How could big shots like them give away projects that were worth a few billions as payment this easily?
She did not understand the world of tycoons.
Eugene was no longer so upset after getting what he wanted. Then, he got a servant to call Ned.
Nathaniel carried Mango into the room while Rainie followed them.
When she saw Nathaniel sitting beside Mango silently, she asked in a low voice, "Are you really with seeing another woman?"
"I only met her to clarify some problems, and I never planned to have a relationship with her."
"What's the matter? Can't you be frank and tell Mango the truth?"
"No, I can't."
Nathaniel's answer made Rainie frown slightly.
"You're husband and wife. Why do you need to hide things from her? Nathaniel, you know Mango's personality well. If you don't explain this matter clearly, she might really divorce you. Also, I heard from her that if she decides to divorce you, she will not keep the child that she's carrying now. Think carefully because both of you have gone through so many hardships for this child. Are you really going to give up on her because of a misunderstanding?"
Rainie could not help but feel surprised. How could big shots like them give away projects that were worth a few billions as payment this easily?
She did not understand the world of tycoons.

Are you really going to give up on her because of a misunderstanding?"
Hearing Rainie's words, Nathaniel's eyes darkened. Her hands held Mango's hands tightly as if she would fly away as soon as he let go.
"Did... did she really say this?"
"Why should I lie to you? I wouldn't gain anything from it. Since you weren't just trying to clarify some problems, why don't you just explain it to her? But I'm also curious. Why is there a lipstick mark on your shirt if all you did was ask some questions. Urgh! Isn't that woman too arrogant?"
The more Rainie thought about it, the angrier she became.
Nathaniel said coldly, "She'll never appear again."
"What do you mean?" Nathaniel did not answer her question, but she slowly seemed to understand the meaning. She couldn't help but widen her eyes and said in horror, "You, you made her..."
"Her corpse is sinking into the sea as we speak."
Nathaniel said these words lightly, but Rainie was not calm at all.
She suddenly realized that Nathaniel had always been a ruthless person. However, Mango had always kept him in check. Was he baring his fangs again now because of Mango? Rainie didn't know the answer, but she could vaguely sense that the matter Nathaniel had asked about was related to Mango.
