The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Mango wanted to retort against her. However, she was afraid to risk the life of the child inside of her in the face of Islas viciousness and cruelty. Then, she quickly said, "Fine, fine, I'll kneel... okay?" After that, she slowly knelt down.

A wise man knew when to retreat. Despite Nathaniel's ongoing support, she still had to face this situation all by herself once she entered the household.

At the thought of this, Mango knelt down in front of Isla unwillingly.

Islas smile grew brighter when she saw that Mango finally surrendered to her.

"Isn't it better to listen to me? You better behave yourself from now on to avoid any beatings."

"Well, I guess you really wanted me to pretend to be Marissa and marry Abyss? I'm curious, why do you insist on doing so? There's nothing wrong with Marissa marrying him. However, have you forgotten that am your son's daughter-in-law and your grandson's mother? Don't you think it's immoral to let me marry Abyss?"

Isla immediately laughed out loud when she heard

this.

"What? Are you even considered my daughter-in-law? I don't have a child. If it weren't for the fact that Nanny Zhang wanted to give birth to a child for the Ye Family, do you think I'd be willing to take in the child that was given birth by a servant? Do they even deserve a luxurious life?"

Upon hearing this, Mango's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Don't you like Nick very much?"

"That's because Nick is obedient! If Nathaniel can be just like him, then I'll definitely treat him better. Unfortunately, he actually chose me over an outsider like you! I would rather kill him than have such a rebellious son!"

"That's because you are cruel and overbearing, isn't it?"

Mango felt that Isla's outlook on life and values were totally out of line.

Meanwhile, Isla said indifferently, "You don't have to worry about me. Why don't you take a good look at yourself? I heard that you've been in the Tang family for five years, and their granny doesn't like you either. Although you're going to marry Abyss, I think they can still see that you're a fake. Nevertheless, just watch how I'll destroy the Ye family in an instant."

"Aren't you too confident? How can you possibly destroy the Ye Family all by yourself?"

Mango felt that she was exaggerating.

However, Isla sneered and said, "I guess you have no idea how powerful our family is, and I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. My marriage to Nathaniel's father was the decision made by both our families. And i was also the Fang family's decision to let Nathaniel join the army. You may look down on us, but do you know that how impactful my words are?"

Mango would obviously not believe it if it was in the past and she thought Isla was trying to threaten her. However, now that she knew the history of the Fang family, she no longer dared to look down on them anymore.

In particular, she was uneasy knowing that Isla was now the head of the Fang family.

A sense of superiority welled up in Isla after she saw that Mango didn't retort her words.

"What you didn't know is that I also despised the Ye family. If it weren't for my parents, do you think I would be willing to marry into a disgraceful family like theirs? Do you think I really have feelings for Nathaniel's dad? I'm sacrificing myself for the sake of the Ye family's Dark Night Empire. Unfortunately, my scheme was exposed and I had no choice left but to kill my husband. Everyone knows that we loved each other so much. Who would suspect me?"

Islas words immediately shocked Mango.

"Father was killed by you?"

"So what if it's true? Do you feel that it's possible for you to leave the Fang family? Do you think it's possible for you to escape from me?"

Isla s face was full of contempt.

"You're no match for me in the Ye family. So, do you think you're able to go against me this time? I know that Nathaniel has placed some spies in the Fang family, but so what? He can do whatever he wants, but he will never be able to rescue you when you're under my control."

Mango's heart sank a little bit.

Although she had no idea that Nathaniel had assigned spies in the house, she didn't expect Isla to find out about it.

Isla became even more pleased when she saw the fear in Mango's eyes.

"You guys, show her what will happen to those who betray me."

At Islas command, three people were dragged across the hall and presented in front of Mango. They were besmeared in blood and they were severely injured. Some of them were even crippled. Mango noticed the pleading look in their eyes.

It seemed they had already lost their will to live and they were desperate to escape from the torture.

If only Mango had a knife in her hand now, she would really fulfil their wish to die.

Sometimes, it was better to die than suffer from endless torture.

Mango felt extremely sorry for them.

If it weren't because Nathaniel wanted to protect her, they wouldn't have agreed to be assigned here and they would have bright futures ahead of them.

Meanwhile, Isla was enjoying the feeling of being able to toy with people who were under her control. Upon seeing their pleading eyes, she felt even more superior.

"Do you see that? Nathaniel is still too inexperienced to go against me! Didn't he learnt everything from me? I can kill him whenever I want. If you want Nathaniel to be safe, you'd better listen to me. I know you guys are being cautious and you even sent the children to the military camp. However, I can bring them out from the military."

Mango panicked upon hearing Islas threatening

words.

It would be terrifying if Isla really did it.

The extent of her cruelty was unimaginable.

Isla said coldly when she saw that Mango was scared out of her wits, "If you obediently replace Marissa and marry Abyss, I can give them a chance to live. Otherwise, your family will be ruined and you will have nothing left. Think about it, Abyss likes you. If you marry him, you won't be suffering any losses anyway, right?"

Mango was at a loss for words.

She was really terrified.

Previously, she was confident that she could walk in and take Desmond away. But now, it seemed that she was actually putting herself into a trap.

But even if she didn't come, Isla would still have ways to force her to come.

"Where is Desmond? I want to see him. This is my only request."

"Are you qualified to negotiate with me?"

Isla sneered and she didn't intend to fulfil Mango's wish..

Mango's heart sank.

"Desmond is my benefactor. He used to be very nice to me and I just want to see him. You really won't agree to my small request, will you?"

"Does this have anything to do with me? Besides, who is Desmond? He is just a nobody in our Fang family, man. In the beginning, his parents sold him away to us. We gave them a large sum of money to take Desmond away and make him into an experiment subject. Now, his entire being belongs to our Fang family. How dare he save you with his precious blood without our permission? So, what right do you have to see him?"

After Isla finished speaking in a cold voice, she ordered someone to subdue Mango.

"Take her to Marissa's room."

Upon hearing Islas words, Mrs. Fang immediately became anxious.

"Oh my gosh, you can't do that. Marissa is still in there!"

"Let the both of them have fun."

Mango immediately realised that Marissa's corpse was currently in the room.

Marissa had been dead for so long. It was understandable that she had not been buried, but now she was still left in the room. Were they not afraid that her body would rot?

Mango felt that Isla was completely insane and out of her mind.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Fang was about to plead again, but she was immediately stopped by her

husband.

Mrs. Fang, who had always been obedient, completely broke down.

"Why are you pulling me away? Our daughter's corpse is still in the room, I will not allow others to enter and disturb her."

Mr. Fang's face suddenly darkened.

"Shut up!"

"Why should I? My daughter is dead! Now we can't even have a funeral for her. Why should I shut up?"

Mrs. Fang was completely out of control.

Isla coughed and asked coldly, "Mrs. Fang, what do you mean? Are you questioning my decision? And are you sure that your daughter has died? Isn't she standing next to you?" "She's not, she's..."

"Shut up!"

Mr. Fang immediately slapped his wife on the face and she immediately fell to the ground with a loud thud.

"Stop causing a mess here! You didn't take your medicine, did you? Get out of here and go back to your room!"

His face was flushed red with anger immediately.

Isla snorted coldly and said, "Mr. Fang, please have good control over your wife, or else I can have someone do it for you."

"Madam, I can manage it well!"

Soon, he personally dragged Mrs. Fang back to the room.

Mrs. Fang was crying silently while Mango actually felt sorry for her.

Was her life going to be controlled by Isla?

Meanwhile, Isla immediately ordered the servant, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring Marissa to her room!"

All of them didn't dare to go against her words and they immediately took Mango away.

Mango didn't dare to struggle as she was afraid of hurting the child in her belly. At this crucial time, she really needed to protect herself.

She had faith that Nathaniel could really save her from danger.

Soon, Mango was sent to the door of Marissa's room, but none of the servants dared to enter.

"Miss, please go in on your own. Don't put us in a difficult position."

Although they said so, it was obvious that they were very afraid of this room.

Mango felt that it was a little strange.

Wasn't this Marissa's room?

And wasn't Marissa dead?

Perhaps her spirit was lingering inside?
