The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Did something happen to Zion? Mango's heart dropped.

She hadn't been in contact with her children ever since she left the Ye Family. She was afraid that it would affect their lives. Now, when she heard that something had happened to Zion, Mango became extremely anxious.

Thomas glanced at Mango, then turned on speaker mode.

"What happened?"

"Didn't Madam Ye send Sir Zion to a base for training? When he heard that something happened to Mrs. Ye, he left on his own. For the past month, we've been searching for him and we've finally found him not long ago, but his leg has been broken."

The color drained from Mango's face when she heard these words.

Gosh! Zion's leg was broken?

What happened?

She snatched the phone from Thomas and asked anxiously, "Where is Zion? How is he now?"

It was not until she finished talking that she

realized that she'd not made a sound.

Seeing this, there was an indescribable bitterness that welled up in Thomas's heart.

Meanwhile, Mango was completely stunned.

She was useless!

She wasn't even able to care for her own son right now. What else could she do?

What use could a mother like her possibly bring to Zion?

Then, Mango pushed the phone back to Thomas disappointedly before she turned around and left. However, Thomas grabbed her arm to stop her.

"Let go, Thomas! Hasn't the Ye Family hurt Mango enough? What else do you want? She's already mute. Are you going to back off only when you see her dead body?"

Rainie stepped forward and pushed Thomas away. Then, she shielded Mango behind her.

The scene that unfolded before her made her upset.

Thomas looked at Mango and said softly, "Mrs. Ye, don't you think Sir Zion needs your help and care the most right now? He was sent out by Madam Ye with the excuse of getting medicine for you. But when he heard that something had happened to you, he escaped and went out looking for you. Now, something has happened to him. Don't you think you should be by his side? Sir Zion has never made you worry about him since he was a child, right? But that doesn't mean that you can leave him alone! I know you aren't willing to trust Mr. Ye anymore because of Madam Ye. Furthermore, you're unable to face him and the Ye Family because of Madam Hans. No matter what, your son is innocent, right? Why can't you care for Sir Zion like how you care for Sir Wisdom?"

Instantly, Mango's eyes were filled with tears.

How was it possible that she didn't miss her children? However, how was she supposed to face her children like this? How would Zion react if he saw her in this state? Mango didn't know, and she dared not think about it.

When the man on the phone heard that Thomas was talking to Mango, he didn't dare interrupt or hang up.

When Thomas saw that Mango no longer had the intention to leave, he asked the man, "What happened to Sir Zion's leg?"

The man said, "Sir Zion was rushing back and he was accidentally hit by a car when he crossed a road. At that time, the driver saw that he was only a child and that there weren't any adults around him, so he drove away without helping. The people who witnessed the accident were kind enough to call an ambulance and Sir Zion was sent to the hospital. However, he kept refusing to contact his family, and the hospital couldn't just send him away like that. After all, his injury was quite serious. It has been more than a month now, but the cast on his leg has not been removed yet. After a lot of effort, we finally found him."

When Mango heard this, she could no longer hold back her tears. She covered her mouth and cried silently in pain.

Then, Thomas asked in a low voice, "Which hospital? Which city?"

"Sir Zion is in Estania at the Bethesda Hospital, ward 503 on the third floor."

"Got it."

After that, Thomas hung up.

Mango turned around hurriedly and was about to return to her room to change, but Thomas stopped her.

"Move!"

Mango mouthed. Even though there was no sound, she knew that Thomas had understood what she was saying.

Thomas did indeed get what she was saying, but he didn't move out of the way.

Rainie was so angry that she stepped forward and kicked Thomas's calf hard. "Argh!"

Thomas exclaimed as he hugged his calf in agony.

"Rainie, are you trying to murder me? I'm your husband!"

"What husband? We've broken up!"

Rainie ignored Thomas's painful expression and once again shielded Mango behind her back.

Then, Thomas took a deep breath before he stood up and looked at Rainie. Then, he said slowly, "How long will you be able to protect Mrs. Ye? A year? Two years? Or ten years? Your whole life? I know you two are close, but some things can't be decided by you alone. Besides, no one can be certain where love takes us. You don't even know what's really going on at all. Can you not get involved in this blindly?" Rainie was at a loss for words for a moment, but still, she said stubbornly, "Whatever, I still can't bear to see the Ye Family bully Mango like this. From the very start, I've already said that Mango and Nathaniel aren't suitable for each other because the Ye Family is so far above us. It was you who insisted on persuading me, telling me how much Nathaniel loved Mango. Look at her now, is this how Nathaniel treats the woman he loves? If that's the case, then Mango doesn't need it!"

"Rainie Blu!"

Thomas was speechless at her words.

Then, he turned to Mango and said, "Mrs. Ye, I know how you're feeling right now. I know that you're in a hurry to see Sir Zion, and I know that you've found out about Mr. Ye, so there's no point beating around the bush. He said that if you don't sign this document, you're aren't allowed to visit Sir Zion."

"Thomas Song, this is ridiculous!"

Rainie was so angry that she tried to resist the urge to storm up and scratch Thomas's face.

He was nothing more than Nathaniel's mule! B*stard!

Meanwhile, Thomas knew that Rainie was cursing him internally, but there wasn't anything he could do. This was Nathaniel's order.

Mango knew that Nathaniel would take action after learning that she had found out about him. However, she did not expect him to act so quickly.

Wait!

Something wasn't right!

Mango's mind whirled quickly as she recalled the events that happened once Thomas had entered the room.

Thomas didn't move to stop her and was waiting quietly.

After some thought, Mango finally realized what was up.

They wanted her to know about Zion by purposely making that call in front of her!

Mango glared at Thomas angrily.

Thomas said quickly, "Yes, we knew about the whereabouts of Sir Zion yesterday. He's not in Estania. It was Mr. Ye who sent someone to bring Sir Zion to Bethesda Hospital here, and it was him who asked us to talk about it purposely in front of you. His only purpose was to let you sign these papers in order to see Sir Zion."

Thomas emphasized on the documents once again.

Mango gritted her teeth furiously.

Ugh, she knew that this would happen.

Rainie said angrily, "What a dirty move. Threatening a woman with her child, and a mute one at that. Plus, you're willing to do it?"

After hearing this, Thomas's face reddened slightly. But he still looked at Mango and said, "Madam, no matter what, please sign this document." "What documents must she sign? Should she give up her life to you this time? This is just too much!"

Rainie snatched the document from Thomas's hand and looked at it angrily, but her expression became befuddled.

"What's wrong, sis?"

It was only then that Denver opened his mouth.

Thomas glanced at the man, who was likely to become his future brother-in-law. Then, he nodded and smiled at Denver.

On the other hand, Denver was actually quite satisfied with Thomas. It was obvious that Thomas liked Rainie a lot, seeing how he was willing to tolerate and pamper her like this.

Therefore, Denver nodded at Thomas and smiled in reply.

"What are you smiling at? You're not someone who smiles for a living. So why are you grinning at him?"

Rainie's anger shifted straight to Denver.

Even though Denver was innocent, but he had not escaped the crossfire. He rubbed at his nose absently before he went to Rainie's side and looked at the document. Then, he was stunned.

"A gift contract for the Carnucopia Mall?" Mango couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this. Then, she looked at Thomas.

Even though the others did not know, but she knew clearly that she had been bullied in the Carnucopia Mall. At that time, there was a woman who had come into the bathroom to comfort her. Now, it was clear that the person who paid the woman and told her to do so was indeed Nathaniel.

However, Mango wasn't pleased in the slightest.

How could Nathaniel be like this?

He clearly knew that there were two deaths separating the two of them, and there would always be a rift separating them. Why was he still being so good to her?

"What does that mean?"

Mango gestured and asked.

Thomas didn't understand and turned to look at Rainie.

Rainie was very unhappy, but still, she translated and said, "Mango asked you, what does Nathaniel mean by giving her Carnucopia Mall?"

"It's alimony, actually."

Thomas's words made Mango pause for a moment.

Alimony?

Well, it made sense!

When Madam Ye had sent her away, she forced her to sign divorce papers. So was Nathaniel afraid that others would say that he was too heartless as her ex-husband?

Mango laughed in self-deprecation.

"There's no need!"

Rainie quickly explained what Mango meant to Thomas.

However, Thomas said firmly, "Mrs. Ye, please just sign it. If you don't sign this contract, Mr. Ye won't allow you to see Sir Zion. To be honest, he is seriously injured, and he still can't move yet."

Upon hearing this, Mango's heart twisted up in knots once again.

Zion was such a good boy, how could he be left to suffer in a hospital bed?

She couldn't wait to see Zion, but she really didn't have much interest in the Carnucopia Mall.

She didn't need Nathaniel's alimony, not even a cent of it.

Thomas continued, "Mrs. Ye, Mr. Ye wants me to tell you something."

"What is it?"

Mango looked at Thomas in confusion.

Thomas cleared his throat and said, "Mr. Ye had asked me to tell you that Sir Nick was killed by drug traffickers. At that time, in order to make them trust Mateo, he had set up a scheme with Mateo that made it seem like Mateo killed Sir Nick. Now that the case was solved, Mateo has restored his reputation and returned to the military. The phone recording left by Sir Nick and the death certificate that was issued by the military has proved that the Hans family does not owe the Ye family anything."

Upon hearing this, Mango was absolutely astonished.

How could this be?

Mateo was innocent?

After all that she had suffered? After Madam Ye forced Madam Hans to her death?

If the Hans family didn't owe the Ye family a thing, did it mean that they now owed the Hans family? The Ye family owed her grandmother a life, didn't they?
