The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

"What's wrong? Are you unwilling to do so?"

Then, Emberly's expression darkened.

Mango knew that Emberly would become more suspicious now that Ryan talked to her, and she would probably be skeptical about any woman. The best method at this moment would be to use an ID card to prove her identity, but it was precisely this that hindered Mango.

"Indeed... I'm somewhat unwilling."

Mango said in a bland tone but as she noticed how Emberly's expression became increasingly gloomy, she smiled and said, "But if you insist on it, I'll go get it from my room now and show it to you.

"Miss Gerner, I'm really sorry as I have no intention of making things difficult for you. I promise to get you a pass to the Underground City as long as I've seen your ID card."

Emberly's face brightened up a little upon hearing Mango's words.

Then, Mango smiled but she was no longer as calm as before as she headed back to her room.

An ID card.

Where could she get an ID card for Paola Gerner?

Moreover, everything was synchronized on the internet now, so Emberly would surely find out after checking.

Mango returned to her room with worry in her heart. As she felt a little stuffy in the room, she opened the window and found that the hotel was surrounded by bodyguards.

It seemed that both Ryan and Emberly were on high alert and it was absolutely impossible for her to leave right now. She also had a three-day agreement with Shaquille, and she could never sacrifice Anaya's life even if she didn't manage to find Walter and Nathaniel.

Then, Mango frowned very deeply.

What was she going to do now?

Just then, her cell phone rang.

Mango looked at her phone and saw that the call was from Zion.

"What's wrong, Zion?"

Hence, Mango's voice returned to how she would sound normally.

However, Zion didn't make a sound, and Mango felt a little worried about that.

"Zion?" "Mommy, where are you?"

Zion's voice sounded as if he was a little downcast.

Mango thought that there was some conflict between him and Gissel, so she said softly, "I'm still outside, so what's wrong, Zion? You sound crestfallen, did you have a fight with Gissel?" "Mommy, are you in A City?"

Hence, Mango was immediately taken aback by Zion's words.

"You're in A City, am I right? Something's happened to Mr. Ye, isn't it?"

Honestly, Mango didn't know how to answer the series of questions that Zion posed.

"Zion, listen to me, I won't let anything bad happen to your dad, I promise."

"If nothing's happened to Mr. Ye, you wouldn't have gone to A City. Mommy, I went back to Ye Family's mansion just now."

Hence, Mango was unable to remain calm after hearing what Zion said.

"You went back to the mansion? Why? Did anyone do anything to you? Where are you now?"

Frankly, Mango was really worried.

She had told Zion not to go back as Nick was now in charge of the Ye Family, and even Madam Ye could barely protect herself. Who knew what Nick would do to Zion if he went back?

On the other hand, Zion noticed that Mango was worried so he hurriedly said, "I took a cab there but I didn't enter the house, though I noticed from the entrance that they changed the bodyguards. I didn't go in but I called grandmother, and the maid said that she was asleep as she was ill. But grandmother never declines my calls, so I hacked into their security system and found that she was captured. Neither Rita nor Wisdom were around, so I called Wisdom. Only then did I realize that you hid so many things from me. Am I a stranger to you, mommy?"

Zion sounded disappointed when he finished what he wanted to say.

Mango figured that Zion had got the wrong idea, so she hurriedly said, "Of course not, Zion, I just didn't want you to be under so much stress as a kid. I'm just protecting you as I don't want you to get involved or hurt, do you understand?"

"But Mommy, I don't want anything to happen to you either... Mr. Ye is still my dad although I don't like him that much. Now that something's happened to him, how can I ignore it? I'm the man of the house if Mr. Ye is not around, and I'm responsible for taking care of you and Rita..."

Then, tears started to form in Mango's eyes.

"My dear, I am really touched to hear what you've said, but you're still young. Frankly, I hope that you can live your childhood happily like any other kid, do you understand? I don't want you to be stressed out a your age as I would really love to provide you a peaceful environment so that you can grow up without any worries."

"Such a day will come, mommy, it will definitely come."

Hence, Zion was very sure about his prediction.

He said, "Mommy, how could you be in A City alone? Wisdom said that you didn't bring anyone with you, and now that Uncle Song and Mr. Ye are in trouble, how are you able to make it through?" "I will be fine as long as Rita, Wisdom and you are waiting for me at home. I'm sure I will make it."

Mango wanted to comfort Zion but he said, "Mommy, don't try to show off, I know that Hadley abducted you the moment you left the military hospital and even though you were lucky enough to escape, things still aren't going as smoothly after you arrived at A City, isn't it?"

"How did you know?"

Mango felt that this was rather frightening and she was relieved that this was her son. If he were her enemy, she wouldn't even see him coming.

Thus, she was very sure that Zion would be more capable than Nathaniel in the future.

Zion smiled and said, "Mommy, what are you afraid of? I'm not going to hurt you, it's just that I installed a tracking device on you. As long as I know your location, I can take advantage of the connections you and Mr. Ye have to make things easier to investigate."

"You little brat, how could you spy on your own mom? Do you want to be punished?"

Although Mango was berating him, anyone could discern the overflowing pride in her voice.

Then, Zion said with a smile, "Mommy, I'm just concerned about you. I would definitely not spend so much effort checking on other people."

"Yes, you're right... Do I owe you thanks for your concern then, Mr. Shen?"

"You're absolutely right!"

Clearly, Zion felt happy and proud of his actions.

Mango grinned as she noticed that her son's mood had improved. "Alright, I'll take good care of myself here. Don't worry about me."

"There's no way I can do that... I want to get through this with you!"

Then, Mango was frightened by Zion's words.

"What do you mean by that? You're just a kid, so you cannot come to A City!"

"Mommy, I can assist you over the internet and I won't go if you don't allow me to, but you can't leave me behind as I might be of big help to you!"

Then, Mango froze for a second before asking in a low voice, "Where's the tracking device you installed on me?"

"On your earrings, mommy."

"What a brat, your father custom made these earrings for me, so how dare you modify them? If you don't get my permission first next time, I'll beat your ass when I return."

Mango touched her earrings subconsciously before taking them off to have a look, but she couldn't spot any difference.

Then, Zion beamed and said, "Mommy, are you checking your earrings? Don't worry, I didn't ruin them because I already told Mr. Ye about it when he made them. If not, how could I have embedded the device into it without you knowing?"

"Your dad knew about it?"

"Of course! He allowed me to do it for the sake of your safety."

Truthfully, Mango had mixed feelings in her heart upon hearing what her son said.

Nathaniel was always thinking about her, but never himself. Where was he now?

"Did you install one for your dad?"

"I didn't since he's a man and great at defending himself... so why should I install a tracking device on him? However, I really regret it now as we could've found his location if I did..."

Zion was crestfallen when he mentioned Nathaniel.

Moreover, Mango didn't feel happy either.

That was right!

Everyone thought Nathaniel had great self-defense skills and ample connections so no one would dare do anything to him, yet who would've expected the person closest to him was the true snake? Mango had no interest in knowing why Nick became like that, but she desperately wanted to know where Nathaniel was.

When Nathaniel previously disappeared all of a sudden, Noah knew of his whereabouts and Walter was able to track down his location. However, Walter was involved this time, so what else could Mango do? Hence, Mango felt extremely distressed deep down at the thought of this.

"Mommy, are you feeling very sad?"

"No, I'm not."

Mango responded hurriedly as she didn't want her son to be worried about her.

"That's nonsense, I can hear the sadness in your voice through the phone."

Zion had barely finished the sentence before Mango almost burst into tears.

Honestly, she didn't feel as lonely anymore despite her current situation, as she had a son who genuinely cared for her.

"I was quite sad just now, but now that you're with me, I don't feel that way anymore."

"Mommy, there's no need for you to be sad as I have installed a tracking device on Uncle Song's phone before this despite not doing it for Mr. Ye, so I'll just need to check on Uncle Song's phone now." Then, Mango smiled bitterly after hearing what Zion said.

She held Walter's phone in her hand as she whispered, "His mobile phone is with me."

"Huh?"

Zion was stunned as he had never expected this to be the case.

Mango couldn't help but chuckle as Zion had miscalculated the situation, "Alright, I'll be careful."

"Mommy, do you think that I'm useless?"

"Why would I? My son is the smartest boy in the world and you're my lucky charm. I will surely be safe and sound with you around."

Mango spoke in a gentle voice.

Then, Zion grinned and said, "Mommy, even though Uncle Song's tracking device is with you, I have also installed another one on his underwear, so I can still track down his location if he didn't change it." Hence, Mango blushed slightly as she heard what Zion told her.

"Zion, how could you put a tracking device on his underwear?"

"Why not? He said that he had a fat d*ck and it's even bigger than Mr. Ye's, so I wanted to have a look."

Thus, Mango couldn't hold back her anger as she heard Zion's answer.

Walter, that b*stard! What the h*ck did he tell Zion?

Zion was only a child!

However, Zion's words piqued Mango's attention.

"Zion, what did you say? You mentioned that you could see Uncle Song's private part?"

Mango's face flushed red uncontrollably as soon as she said that, as it was still embarrassing for her to mention a man's private part even though she was already a married woman.
