The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 960

Mango did not nod. Instead, she took the wine cup and went to the balcony.

She did not know when she started to like drinking. She was not a heavy drinker, but drinking a glass of red wine every night before going to bed could make her sleep well, and she would not have to wake up every hour. When she woke up and found out that she was the only one on the big bed, she would suddenly feel cold.

Clarissa felt that Mango seemed to have understood something. She took a photo of Mango's lonely figure and sent it to Nathaniel on WhatsApp.

"Mrs. Ye is in a bad mood. She asked me to thank you, and I guessed that she already found out about it."

Nathaniel took his phone and looked at the picture for a long time. Suddenly, he told Ned, "Prepare the helicopter. I'm going to B City."

He knew that he should not have come. What was more, he knew that Mango did not like him, but he still couldn't bear seeing her like this.

He had a heartache when he looked at Mango's lonely figure. It hurt so much as if a knife was stabbing at his heart.

She was thinner than before.

She must have lost a lot of weight.

Nathaniel had also heard from Clarissa that Mango would drink in her recent social events.

Did Mango not know that she should be more cautious as other people would try to take advantage of her?

Moreover, she was such a beautiful woman!

Nathaniel arrived at B City with a worried expression.

Mango's celebratory dinner was held at the Celestial Clubhouse. They did not book the private rooms, but the event was in the hall. She was not used to the noise, so she hid on the balcony to enjoy the cold wind.

The night was dark, so she could see the twinkling stars that were in the sky. However, there was no one to watch the stars with her.

Nathaniel saw Mango's back when he arrived.

Clarissa hurried over to welcome him.

"Mr. Ye, Madam..."

"I know. Go welcome and greet the others. Just leave me alone."

Nathaniel's voice was a little hoarse, and he had bloodshot eyes. It was obvious that he hadn't been sleeping well.

Clarissa did not say much and quickly left to deal with her own issues.

Nathaniel really wanted to go up and put his jacket on Mango's shoulder. She was scantily clad, but she was still standing outside in the wind. Wasn't she afraid of catching a cold?

However, he did not go over in the end. Instead, he chose a hidden spot to sit down and watched Mango silently.

Mango finished the red wine in her hand and felt a little cold.

She turned and went out of the balcony to the washroom.

The lights in the club were very dim. In addition, Mango was in a bad mood, so she did not pay attention to the person coming towards her. "Ouch!" She yelled, knocking the person in front of her. "Sh*t, are you f*cking blind?"

The man said gruffly. He had a bad temper.

"I'm sorry."

Mango knew that it was her fault, and she apologized quickly.

Right at this moment, a ray of moonlight shone on

Mango's face, causing the man's eyes to lit up.

"Ah...you're a beauty! You did it on purpose, didn't you? If you wanted to play with me, you should've told me. You are so beautiful, well, I won't refuse you."

As the man spoke, his hand touched Mango's waist.

"See... this waist is too sexy!"

Mango felt disgusted by the man's greedy and flirtatious look.

She had been very depressed recently. At first, she thought that Bernard would save Gisella, and by then, she could also know what had happened during Thomas' accident. Unfortunately, Bernard had completely given up on Gisella. Also, she had been charged with various crimes and sentenced to three years of imprisonment.

Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen came to her house every day to create trouble because of this issue. In the end, she had to call the police to forbid them from appearing in her place. This had made Mango depressed for a long time. Moreover, she actually relied on Nathaniel's help to open up her company, which made her feel disturbed.

Mango had mixed emotions, but she could not vent it out on anyone. However, she did not expect to run into someone who wanted to get in trouble today. Her eyes darkened.

"Let go of your hand!"

"Wow! Such a fiery hot girl! I love it."

The man thought that Mango was playing hard-to-got, so he shamelessly moved his head closer to her. However, Mango slapped him and slammed into him before throwing him out.

Her movements were quick and agile, and she was much stronger than when she was with Nathaniel.

"You dare to hit me? Huh? Do you know who I am? B*tch, do you believe that I can make you leave B City with just a word?"

The man gritted his teeth in pain, but he did not forget to threaten Mango.

Mango walked forward with a cold smile before stepping her ten-centimetre high heels on his belly.

"Owww!"

The man screamed as if he was being tortured.

Mango stuffed his socks directly into his mouth and said coldly, "Go ahead. Do it, if you dare."

The man was suddenly terrified by the frigidness in her eyes. He wanted to say something, but there were still two socks in his mouth. He could only scream, not knowing whether he was threatening her or begging for mercy.

Mango thought that she would feel better after beating up a rogue, but now she felt that her heart was way emptier than before.

She left the man and walked towards the washroom.

After she left, Nathaniel walked out from the darkness.

"Did you touch her with this hand just now?"

Nathaniel appeared quietly and shocked the man. Before he could see Nathaniel's face clearly, he heard a crunch, and Nathaniel had broken his right hand! "Urgh! Ah! You... you..."

The man still wanted to say something, but Nathaniel replied coldly, "I don't want to see a person again in B City."

After that, Ned, who was behind Nathaniel, immediately covered the man's mouth and dragged him out. Mango did not know anything about it at all.

She walked into the washroom and splashed her face with cold water as she was trying to wake herself up.

Although she had lived a very fulfilling life in the past three months, she also knew that she could not forget Nathaniel from the bottom of her heart.

She was in a dilemma when she thought about how Nathaniel had helped her. She could have refused it, but Rainie had achieved great heights, and she had released her album in the past three months. Rainie was popular. Many companies were fighting to sign contracts with her, but Rainie said that she had already signed with a company right now.

At that moment, Mango knew that Rainie was waiting for her to establish her company.

Mango still remembered the pressure that Rainie had to bear, so she accepted Nathaniel's help.

Mango looked at her reflection in the mirror and found herself hilarious.

Why couldn't she let go of Nathaniel?

"If you love someone, you don't have to possess him, right?"

Mango smiled bitterly. She opened the bathroom door and went out.

The man just now was gone.

Mango did not think too much about it. She thought that the man had left to find backup or he had left this place in fear. After all, it would be a waste of time to think too much about a random stranger. Mango returned to the hall. The few artists who had signed contracts with the company were going over their script. When they saw Mango coming over, they hurriedly put down the work in their hands and said to Mango, "Ms. Shen, let's have a drink."

Actually, Mango was already a little dizzy. However, looking at the hopeful eyes of the artists and thinking back to the fact that she had not been able to join them after coming here, she felt bad because she had neglected them.

"Well, we're celebrating our achievements today! Let's get drunk."

Mango raised her wine glass.

She gulped down the red wine in one breath as if she wanted to vent her anger and confusion. Then, she filled up her glass again.

"I knew nothing about this industry, but I set up a film and television company with great enthusiasm. We need to work hard so that our company will thrive! Here, let me pay my respects to you all! The company depends on you guys."

Mango was modest and polite. Then, she downed the wine once more.

When everyone saw Mango drinking roundly, they immediately became spirited.

Nathaniel looked at Mango in the dark, and his heart ached.

He wanted to snatch Mango's wine glass, but he hesitated.

Clarissa knew Nathaniel well. When she saw Mango acting like this, she quickly stopped her.

"Ms. Shen, you are not in good health. You'd better not drink too much. Everyone knows about your kind intentions already. Stop drinking now."

When everyone heard Clarissa say that Mango was not in a good health, they all became somewhat reserved.

"Ms. Shen, are you all right? We really didn't know that you are in poor health, we..."

"It's okay, I'm much better now. Ms. Powell just cares about me too much. Don't be too shy. I can take care of myself."

Mango smiled faintly.

She gently pushed Clarissa away. Although she did not say anything, there was a hint of displeasure in her eyes.

Clarissa knew how to observe a person's behavior. She naturally knew that Mango was unhappy with her.

Clarissa was in a dilemma and did not know what to do when she heard Mango blurted out, "Go outside and buy me some tea so I can sober myself up. I'm afraid I won't be able to leave by myself later." Clarissa knew that Mango was trying to get her to leave, but she could not find any reason to stay.

She subconsciously looked in the direction of Nathaniel.

Mango immediately understood.

"What? You are my director, but you can't listen to my orders now? Whose orders are you listening to then?"

This question made Clarissa suddenly feel uneasy.

"Ms. Shen, it's not like that. I'm just worried about you..."

"They are all employees of our company. Are you afraid that they will hurt me? Or you want me to get drunk and leave?"

"I'll go and buy it now."

Clarissa suddenly noticed that Mango was under a lot of pressure.

Mango usually did not care much, and she would still be kind to everyone when she was feeling down. However, Clarissa felt that Mango looked similar to Nathaniel.

Hah! Both of them looked similar when they were upset. They were a couple indeed.

Clarissa hurriedly went out to buy some medicine so that Mango could sober up.

Nathaniel frowned slightly.

After knowing that Nathaniel was here, Mango became more unbridled.

Suddenly, she felt brave as she opened a dozen beer bottles and said to the employees, "Come on, let's get drunk today!"

When the staff saw that Mango was in high spirits, they came to heel and started to drink with her.

Unknowingly, the beers had run out.

Mango's vision was a little blurry.

However, Clarissa still had not returned.

Nathaniel cursed silently. When he saw that Mango was about to open another bottle of beer, he could not hold it in for any longer and walked out from his hiding spot. He quickly walked over to Mango and snatched the bottle from her. His expression was frighteningly dark.

"Stop drinking. You're drunk."

Everyone was shocked by Nathaniel's sudden appearance. Before they could react, Mango slapped Nathaniel.

"Go away! Who are you to me?"
