The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 953

She leapt into action immediately after that thought.

After Mango and Rainie left the Sanchez home, they rented a house in the suburbs.

Rainie wanted to accompany Mango, but Mango asked her to gather some resources for their company instead. Furthermore, she wanted to take a stroll alone.

Rainie was a little worried, but she couldn't change Mango's mind, so she agreed to her request instead.

Mango called Gisella immediately after departing from her rental home.

"Let's meet. I have something to discuss with you."

Gisella was shocked initially as she didn't believe Mango would call her. After hearing Mango's words, she sneered, "Heh! Why do you think I would meet you? Mango, who do you think you are?" "Well, that's true. I'm not anyone special, and you can also choose to not see me. But do your parents know about this person called Bernard Gaylord?"

This did the trick. Once Mango finished her words, Gisella became extremely anxious.

"Mango, if you dare to tell them about him, I won't forgive you!"

"HI wait for you in the coffee shop at Mombra Street."

Mango hung up the phone immediately after saying that.

When Gisella arrived at the cafe, Mango was already waiting for her inside.

Mango only had a cup of cold plain water in front of her, even though she was at a cafe. Her eyes were looking out of the window, and it was clear that something was bothering her mind. Her expression was a little sad and depressing.

Wait... did Mango look sad?

Gisella thought she must have seen wrongly.

What would she be sad about when Nathaniel treated her so well? Furthermore, she also had and privileges provided by both the Hans and Xiao family!

When Gisella thought of her own family background and how Mango had replaced her as the Shen family's daughter for so many years, she felt upset.

"You asked me to have coffee with you, but you're drinking cold water? Mango, you're not sincere at all."

Upon hearing Gisella's voice, Mango finally came to her senses. However, the tiredness and redness in her eyes stunned Gisella.

"Were you crying?"

"Some sand got into my eye. Oh, please! Do you think I have anything to cry over in the first place?"

Mango said faintly before she finished drinking the glass of water in front of her in one gulp.

Gisella also felt that she had asked a stupid question.

How could such a beautiful woman who was loved by many even cry?

Moreover, she was pregnant now. The Ye family probably were treating her preciously!

Gisella's face darkened at this thought.

"Tell me, what do you want from me? Although I don't know how you found out about Bernard, I'm warning you, you better not provoke him. Otherwise, the consequences would be extremely deadly. Don't think that you can do whatever you want with Nathaniel backing you up? Heh. Mango, this is B City, not Ocean City."

Gisella's was brimming with confidence when she said these words.

If they were in Ocean City, Mango would definitely retort sharply. However, knowing that the person behind Gisella was Bernard, she decided not to argue with her.

"How much did you sell the house of Shen family in Ocean City for? Give me back the money. I won't sell the house."

Mango went straight to the point. After all, this was the purpose of her entire trip.

She was indebted to Emberly deeply. Thus, Mango would not let Gisella take advantage of her.

Gisella's expression turned sour after knowing that Mango had come here to ask her for money.

"What do you mean give you back? That house belonged to my parents! Mango, do you have any conscience? Our parents took their time to educate you, feed you and gave you a home! Now that you married the most powerful man in Ocean City, you did not show the slightest gratitude and you even dared to eye over their properties? Mango, do you even need more money?" "Yes. So give me the money."

Mango didn't bother arguing with her. Instead, she stretched out her hand to Gisella in an uncompromising manner.

Gisella took a step back and said with arrogance, "I have nothing to give you! I have spent all the money. There is nothing left except my life. The decision is yours to make." "How dare you!" Mango had known that Gisella would behave like a rogue, but she never thought that she would act like such a rascal.

"Gisella, you sold the house without my permission, and yet the buyer couldn't get the property ownership certifications. This is clearly a scam!"

"Then you can go deal with that person and complete the ownership transfer procedure."

Gisella seemed to think that she was right after all.

At this point, Mango knew that there was no point in continuing to talk to her.

"Gisella, I'll give you three days to return the money to me or give it back to that buyer. Otherwise, we'll meet in court."

"Well, go ahead and sue me. I'll tell my parents later that the daughter that they raised up for so long wants to sue me. We're flesh and blood. Heh. What do you think they will do?"

Gisella was fearless and sure of herself when she said these.

Mango looked at her snide face and sneered back,

"Heh. Nathaniel bought off the bond between them and I for a million dollars, don't you remember? Why do you think they can demand anything from me? Gisella, don't be too greedy." Hearing Mango's words, Gisella's expression turned a little ugly.

"Well, I don't want to give it to you, so what can you do to me? Mango, you're so rich, so why do you have to make things difficult for me? You can just think that you're compensating me with the money, right?" "No! Only a thief takes things without asking. You haven't even discussed it with me at all. Gisella, I'm giving you a chance and telling you this in advance, but I'll only give you three days. If you become involved in a lawsuit, I don't think we need to have the violin competition anymore, right? That's because you'll only end up being absent on that day, right?"

Gisella's eyes darkened when she heard Mango's words.

"Hey! Don't push your limits!"

"I'm just taking back what belongs to me."

After saying that, Mango stood up and walked out.

Gisella looked at her back and, there was an ambiguous look in her eyes.

After walking out of the cafe, Mango wanted to know how Rainie was doing. So, she gave her a car.

When she heard Rainie saying that a screenwriter had invited her to sing one of their tracks, Mango was happy for her.

Later, she found out that a video clip of Rainie singing in the bar had gone viral on the Internet.

"Send me the address. I'll come over to find you."

Mango was in a joyful mood.

Although Mango was upset because of Nathaniel's affair, she was still happy because Rainie had kicked off her career well.

Rainie gave the address to Mango.

Mango looked at her address and navigated for a moment. She discovered that it was actually within walking distance, so she did not bother hailing a cab. Instead, she headed straight for the location. When Mango approached a junction, the traffic light flashed green for pedestrians to cross. Then, she kept on moving.

At this moment, a car suddenly drove through the red light and headed straight for Mango.

"Be careful!"

Someone beside her shouted, but it was already too late for Mango to turn around.

Bang! She was sent flying from the impact.

Oh sh*t!

This thought flashed across Mango's mind as her hands subconsciously hugged her stomach. However, the instant her body landed on the ground, she felt pain all over her body. Her stomach jerked, and a warm stream of liquid flowed out between her legs.

Her baby!

Mango's heart ached. She tried to speak, but only a mouthful of blood came out before she lost consciousness.

There were many people gathering around her now.

However, the driver saw the crowd and immediately fled the scene.

Mango was lying the middle of the road. The bloodst below her body were spreading slowly, dying the crossroad crimson in bright red.

"Someone call the ambulance! Or she'll die soon!"

"Yes, yes, call the police!"

Someone nearby shouted, and some people took action quickly. Some people were recording this scene with their phones so that they could upload this scene on the internet.

Rainie had been waiting for Mango for a long time. When she called Mango, her phone had already been turned off.

"What's going on?"

Rainie felt very uneasy right at this thought.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel was discussing the contract with Eugene in the private club. Taking care of Mango had inconvenienced Emberly greatly, and he did not want to disturb her further. However, it was a little troublesome as Eugene wanted to amend the terms of the contract, so they found a secluded spot and invited a lawyer to handle the formalities here.

Nathaniel kept looking at his phone the entire morning. He was afraid that he would miss the call from Mango when she woke up. Yet, the wait yielded nothing but silence from the phone.

"Why do you keep looking at your phone? What's the matter?"

Eugene could not help asking.

"It's nothing."

Nathaniel did not say anything else, but he still picked up his phone and opened his social media to take a look.

Since Mango did not call him, he decided to glance through her social media.

Whenever Mango was in a bad mood, she liked to vent her frustration by posting on her social media feed.

Nathaniel opened Mango's feed, but there were no new updates today.

He was a little worried.

He subconsciously browsed through other people's social media, and suddenly, a video of a car accident popped up on her feed.

Nathaniel narrowed his eyes at this scene.

"What's wrong?"

Eugene was almost petrified by Nathaniel's intimidating aura.

"I'm leaving!"

Nathaniel stood up and left immediately.

"What? The contract has not been completed yet."

Eugene wanted to grab hold of Nathaniel, but the latter sprinted away very quickly.

"D*mn, why was he running so fast? Did something happen to someone?"

Eugene also picked up his phone and started scrolling. He was stunned when he saw Mango lying in a pool of blood.

"How could this be..."

Eugene called Emberly quickly.

When Mango was sent to the hospital, she was already unconscious, and her breathing was very weak.

Emberly heard the news, and she immediately rushed over and personally performed an operation on her. When she saw the bloodstains on Mango's body, Mango's hands were still tightly wrapped around her stomach.

Her eyes feared.

The child should be gone...

Emberly pushed Mango into the operating room hurriedly at this thought.

When the light in the operating room came on, Nathaniel arrived.

"Argh! Where... where is she? Where is my wife? Tell me!"

The people around were frightened by Nathaniel and quickly pointed to the operating room.

However, Nathaniel could not enter anymore.

His heart was leaping in his throat.

"Ned, check the location of the incident. Who ran over her? Where is the driver that caused the accident now?"

Nathaniel called Ned immediately.

When Ned heard that something had happened to Mango, he was stunned.

He had no idea that Mango had left the vicinity.

However, Ned still quickly investigated the surveillance video at that time of the incident.

"Mr. Ye, we are unable to identify the driver. The car plate also turns out to be fake, and we can't find any other concrete information. Mr. Ye, this is not an accident. It may be a murder!"

Nathaniel's eyes narrowed as he listened to Ned.

Who was it?

Who had the audacity to attack Mango?

"Investigate immediately! No matter how much manpower and resources it takes, I want to know who that person is!"
