The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)
Chapter 986

Nathaniel watched as Mango bit him harshly. At the same time, he was worried that she would hurt her teeth.

"You..."

He wanted to ask her to bite him lighter, but Mango let go of him just as he said one word. With a face of depression, she said, "Urgh! The meat is very thick. It's not tasty." Nathaniel's lips curled up immediately.

"Do you think I'm food? Heh... You still say that you're not a foodie."

He pointed his fingers out and gently wiped the saliva on the corner of Mango's mouth. He never looked at the bite marks on his arms at all.

Nathaniel's eyes were beautiful. It was as deep as the ocean and as bright as the stars, and Mango's heart thumped when she met his gaze.

What a seductive man!

Mango was all ears.

"Don't you know that you're a beauty that I want to feast with my eyes?"

"Hmm... So Mrs. Ye, are you thinking of devouring me?"

"Yes!"

Mango quickly nodded her head.

Nathaniel's lips curved into a bigger smile.

"You can't do it now, so bear with it. Don't worry, I'll feed you after you have recovered."

"Remember to keep your promises, Mr. Ye."

"Yes, Mrs. Ye."

Nathaniel touched her head and asked softly, "Are you hungry?"

"I'm fine, maybe just a little sleepy."

Mango rubbed her eyes.

She was exhausted, and she wanted to sleep perhaps of the medicine she had been given.

However, Nathaniel knew that it was because Mango's body was too weak.

This unexpected attack had caused great damage to Mango's body.

There was a trace of pity in his eyes.

"Sleep then. I'll accompany you here."

"Don't you... have work to do?"

Mango could not open her eyes at this point.

Nathaniel smiled and said, "You're more important now."

Mango was delighted to hear that.

She knew that she was acting a bit childish.

However, Mango was a bit weak as she was sick. She did not want to pretend to be serious, and she just wanted to be coquettish.

Both of them were husband and wife. Besides, they were allowed to do whatever they wanted because they had a marriage certificate issued by the law. The corners of Mango's lips curled up when she thought of this, and her eyes sparkled out of happiness too.

"Mr. Ye, you really know how to please others with your words."

"These words are from the bottom of my heart. It's time to sleep.'

Nathaniel wouldn't say these words in the past, but he would now say all of these voluntarily as they had experienced so many things together.

He was shy at first, but he felt that everything was worth it when he saw Mango's delighted expression. Thus, he started to say more to please her.

Mango yawned. She finally failed to resist her drowsiness and laid down on Nathaniel's body. Then, she mumbled and said, "It's so tiring... to lay down and sleep." Nathaniel's eyes held a trace of pity.

"Maybe I'll hug you when you sleep?" He asked.

Mango nodded and closed her eyes as she lay in Nathaniel's embrace. Soon after, Nathaniel could hear her even breaths.

Nathaniel felt that this moment was extremely peaceful.

He really wanted to stop time and just hug Mango like that till the end of their life.

Eugene saw Nathaniel hugging Mango, who was sleeping soundly when he came.

"Tsk Tsk, it's still early morning. Why do the both of you have to show off your affection in public?"

"Haha! You're just envious of us. Go out and wait for a while, I'll come out soon."

Eugene got a little depressed upon Nathaniel's words.

"Who's envious? I have my own wife too."

"Well, does Emberly let you hug her like this?"

Eugene's eyes narrowed slightly as he heard what Nathaniel said.

"Hmph! I won't argue with you since your wife is a patient."

He opened the door and got out with anger after he finished his words, but his voice became a lot softer.

Emberly would not let him go easily if he really disturbed Mango.

"I'm not afraid of my wife. I'm just respecting her."

Eugene said to himself and walked out.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel gently put Mango down when he saw Eugene leaving.

Mango's brows furrowed subconsciously, but she did not wake up. She continued to lay down on the bed, but the cold bed was definitely not as comfortable as Nathaniel's embrace, so she shrank her body subconsciously.

Nathaniel quickly used a blanket to cover her and adjusted the temperature in the ward.

Then, he only left the ward after he saw Mango sleeping soundly.

Eugene stood in the corridor, and his eyes kept looking towards the direction of Emberly's office from time to time, with his brows closely knitted to each other.

After Nathaniel came out and saw this scene, he whispered, "Did both of you get into an argument?"

"Hah! When did you see me arguing with her?"

Eugene glared at him and fiddled with a cigarette in his hands. He then said faintly, "Let's go out and talk?"

"Nah, let's stay here. I'm afraid that Mango will panic if she can't find me when she wakes up."

"Tsk. Is your wife a child?"

Eugene was a little annoyed.

Nathaniel said slowly, "This is what we call love."

"What the f*ck!"

Eugene put the cigarette near his ears, and there was a trace of annoyance within his eyes.

"What happened? Is Alayah looking fortrouble?"

Eugene frowned slightly after hearing Nathaniel's words.

"Urgh! I don't care about that b*tch since she was the one who dug her own graves. Besides, Beverly just asked me to find out who kidnapped your wife a few days ago, but I guess I don't have to say much now since you're more efficient than me."

Eugene adjusted his seat and sat on the bench.

Nathaniel knew that Eugene wouldn't help him for no reason. He couldn't help but ask, "Is there something that I didn't know?"

"That's right."

Eugene nodded and said, "I found something interesting." "What is it?" "Diago and Bernard have a personal relationship, but very few people know about it."

If Eugene could find out secrets that no one else knew, it appeared that he was influential enough in both the high-class and the underground societies.

"Get to the point."

Nathaniel said faintly.

Eugene whispered, "I remember that you once had an assistant called Thomas?"

Nathaniel suddenly paused.

"Huh? Is Thomas involved in this?"

"Diago went to Ocean City few months ago."

Eugene's words made Nathaniel frown slightly.

"Does Thomas' accident have something to do with Diago?"

"Well, yeah, according to what I know now. Bernard rescued Diago's once, and he supported Bernard so the latter could be so powerful right now. Plus, the day he went to Ocean City was the same day Thomas got into an accident. Do you think all of these were coincidences?"

Eugene handed Nathaniel a document in his hand after he said everything in a faint manner.

"This is the clip that my subordinate found at the location of Thomas' accident. I have the face of the driver who caused the accident here. Anyways, I believe you can find him with your connections. So, I'll go now since I have something else to do."

Eugene left and went straight to Emberly's office after he finished his words.

Nathaniel opened the file and looked at it. His eyes darkened a bit.

He considered Thomas as his brother as they had gone through a lot together. Now, was Bernard the one who had caused Thomas' accident?

Bernard and Gisella were a couple, and Gisella wanted to get rid of Mango and Rainie badly previously. Therefore, it was logical for Bernard to help Gisella.

He had made this assumption since Thomas accident, but he did not have proof. Now that Eugene had passed the clip and the identity of the driver to Nathaniel, he wouldn't let go of this clue.

He took the information and went into the room.

Mango was not sleeping well, and it was as if she was having a nightmare. She broke into a cold sweat and huddled herself up even though she did not scream. However, anyone could tell that she was frightened as she was shivering profusely.

Nathaniel saw this scene as he stepped into the ward. He was so shocked that he quickly went in front of Mango's bed and hugged her in his embrace.

"It's alright, Mango, I'm here."

Nathaniel's voice was deep and mellow. However, there was a hint of concern in it.

Mango seemed to hear a familiar voice in a trance. It was cold yet familiar at the same time. She felt a sense of security and slowly felt relaxed. Hence, her body became less tense as she leaned in Nathaniel's embrace.

Nathaniel took off his shoes and hugged Mango into his embrace.

Mango did not know how long she slept, but she saw herself laying on Nathaniel's chest in an ambiguous position when she woke up. There was even saliva at the corner of her mouth.

"Ahem!"

She felt awkward and pushed Nathaniel away as she wiped the saliva at the corner of her mouth.

Nathaniel slightly raised the corner of his mouth.

"What did you dream about?"

"I dreamt of eating meat."

Mango blinked her eyes and said mischievously.

Nathaniel was slightly stunned said gently, "I'll get people to add some meat into your meal once your body is better, alright? You can't eat it now."

Mango was slightly stunned, then she shook her head.

He was a fool!

"Well... I dreamt of sucking you."

Nathaniel was stunned, and he finally understood what she said. His wife had told him a dirty joke!

"Was it delicious?"

Nathaniel gave her a mischievous smile.

After Mango had been injured, she had thought things through. Therefore, she treated Nathaniel differently too.

Although their relationship had gotten better after arguing for so long, it was still different than before. There seemed to be something getting between them, causing Nathaniel and Mango to be distant.

Therefore, Nathaniel was delighted to see how his wife was clinging to him.

Mango naturally knew what Nathaniel was asking. She smiled mischievously and said, "Hmm... it didn't taste good at all! Your skin was too thick!"

"Well? Why don't you look closer at it? Or perhaps you could touch it? I'm actually quite yummy."

Nathaniel's eyes were tender, making Mango's heart pound wildly.

Hah... she really couldn't resist any of Nathaniel's temptations. In fact, he could seduce her easily without doing anything much!

Mango pushed Nathaniel away and felt somewhat depressed.

She was dissatisfied because Nathaniel ended up making fun of her even though she wanted to tease him!

"I'm hungry."

"What do you want to eat?"

Nathaniel was amused at how Mango changed the topic quickly.

His wife was still so shy and lovely!

Nathaniel rubbed her hair, causing Mango to protest.

"Hey! I'm not a child anymore. Don't touch my head."

The corner of her eyes couldn't help but look at the folder that contained information on the driver that was on the table.

"What is this?"

She reached out and took it.

Nathaniel did not stop her as she would know about this sooner or later.

"The clip of Thomas' accident."

"Have you found the driver?"

Mango was slightly stunned, and her face was a little serious.

Mango was a little surprised now that the clues had fallen in her hands. This was because Rainie had investigated this matter for a long time, but she didn't manage to get any news. In fact, Nathaniel could not

find any clues too at first.

"Yeah, take a look."

Mango opened the bag upon Nathaniel's instructions. She felt that the driver's face was very familiar, although she could only see his side profile.

She must have seen this driver somewhere before!
