The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

"Perhaps you got the location wrong?"

Mango asked in a hurry after she noticed that Nathaniel's expression had turned ugly.

"Are you doubting your husband's memory?"

"No, I just thought that you might've gotten it wrong. Why don't we head somewhere else to look for it?"

Then, she grabbed Nathaniel's hand and tried to leave, but it was already too late. Soon, they were surrounded by a group of people.

Desmond's eyes darkened and said in a low voice, "It's the people from the Dark Night Empire."

Mango felt a little sad when she heard that name. Although she was technically the head of Dark Night Empire, the organization had always been under Isla's control. This could be clearly seen when Merle disobeyed her orders.

Nathaniel's gaze turned a little cold.

"Dark Night Empire is a special organization made for the Ye Family. It's supposed to serve the Ye family. However, it has turned into a private squad. Isn't it better to disband?"

When Mango heard Nathaniel's words, she knew that he was truly enraged.

That's right. Isla had challenged Nathaniel's patience repeatedly. Did she really think that Nathaniel would not resist? Or did she still believe in their maternal bond that was non-existent?11

"I agree. They no longer belong to the Ye family, so it's better to dissolve. Desmond, find a safe place to stay. We'll call you when we're done."

Mango took off her jacket.

It had been a long time since she had engaged in a fun activity like this.

However, Nathaniel held her hand tightly and said, "You should also find a hiding place."

"What do you mean? Are you looking down on me?"

Mango felt offended.

Nathaniel said with a smile, "You don't have to do it. Besides, you are pregnant now. I'm a man, and I can handle it myself. Otherwise, am I still qualified to be your husband? Retreat and protect Desmond. At this time, I am afraid that someone will seize the opportunity and take Desmond away if no one looks after him. After all, Desmond is our weak point now."

His reasoning was perfect and flawless, and Mango didn't know how to refute it.

"Well fine, you won, but you should take care of yourself. Don't get hurt, alright?"

"Don't worry."

Nathaniel's confident expression gave Mango a lot of courage. Could he really do it alone?

Desmond whispered when he saw them like this, "I will try my best to learn how to protect myself and I promise that I won't drag you down in the future." "I'm glad to know that, now bring Mango with you."

Nathaniel did not even look at Desmond.

Upon seeing how Desmond was determined to seek revenge after Marissa's death, it seemed that he would really be helpful to Mango. Besides, although Nathaniel was worried that Desmond would set his eyes on Mango, he was confident about Mango's feelings for him. Desmond didn't say anything else and he looked at Mango with a determined expression.

Meanwhile, Mango reluctantly took Desmond with her and retreated.

The people from Dark Night Empire was stunned when they found out that their opponents were actually Nathaniel and Mango.

"Mr. Ye, we're just obeying the orders."

One of them said very respectfully to Nathaniel.

Nathaniel sneered and said, "What?! Whose orders are you acting on? Don't you know that the head of the Ye family has been replaced? The person standing in front of you now is your new boss, but how dare you go against her? In that case, what's the point of having you guys as a part of the Dark Night Empire?"

The person seemed a little surprised when they heard this.

"Our leader has changed? Why didn't we know about this?"

Although Mango was far away, she still heard their conversation. Then, she quickly stood up and took out the ring, which represented her identity.

"Look, this is the token of proof! Don't you know about this?"

The man looked at the item in Mango's hands and said in a low voice, "The letter said that someone had stolen the token, so we can't take it as proof." "What else can I say? Go ahead, let me see how much your skills have improved in the past few years. If I survive, you guys will continue to exist as a part of the Dark Night Empire. However, you're no longer under the control of Ye Family anymore! I'll tell you this again that Isla Fang has betrayed the Ye Family and she has been exiled. If you are willing to listen to her, you are not worthy to be a member of our family anymore! If I win by chance, you guys will be ruined." Nathaniel made his intentions very clear.

Many of the members hesitated, but the man who spoke looked at Nathaniel and whispered, "Mr. Ye, I'm sorry. We are just following orders, and you also know that we shouldn't go against them." "Come on."

Nathaniel didn't bother to say too much and he immediately started the fight.

A few of them looked at Nathaniel. Although they were a little hesitant, they still made their move.

Seeing this, Mango really felt that disbanding the Dark Night Empire was the right choice.

When Nathaniel and the others were fighting, Mango observed the surrounding area and said to Desmond, "Do you think Isla will be somewhere around here?"

"It's impossible. That terrible old woman will only hide in her room and wait for everything to be over. By then, she will either be mocking us, or she would be enraged." Desmond saw through Isla s mind.

Meanwhile, Mango couldn't help but furrow her brows when she noticed that his face was still bleeding.

"Is there any medicine to stop the bleeding? You might die if this continues!"

"I forgot to bring it with me."

Upon hearing this, it seemed like Desmond knew where all the medicine was kept in the Fang household, but he forgot to take it.

Mango suddenly felt sorry for him when she thought of the relationship between him and Marissa.

A person's life was really too fragile. No one would be able to tell the future, and whether they would live or die. Therefore, everyone should cherish the time they have with their loved ones. Mango once again turned her gaze towards Nathaniel.

Nathaniel was surrounded by so many people and it seemed that it was a tough fight. However, Mango could see that Nathaniel's skills have significantly improved.

When did he manage to master these skills?

He was so busy as he was tied up with the company's affairs, his family and children. He barely had time for himself, so how could he manage to do it? At the thought of this, Mango was seemingly jealous.

Meanwhile, Desmond noticed how Mango was filled with love for Nathaniel. This made him recall how Marissa had sacrificed herself to save his life. During that moment, it seemed as if he was Marissa's entire world and that she only had eyes for him. He felt blessed because he was loved by her.

Marissa had stood by his side, and she was the one who gave him all the strength and warmth that he could ever feel. She told him that he was more than an experimental subject and that he could achieve success. But why did such a kind and innocent girl leave this world when she was so young?

Desmond looked up at the sky. He heard that good-hearted people would become angels in the sky after they died. He really hoped that Marissa could become an angel. This way, she could live a carefree life without suffering on earth anymore.

As for him, he would stay in the human world and live as a murderer for his whole life. He was willing to do anything for her, so that he would no longer be a useless and powerless man.

Mango obviously didn't know what Desmond was thinking about right now. She was fixing her eyes on Nathaniel's valiant appearance in the field and she was completely blown away by his gorgeous

stance.

It was extremely difficult for him to fight alone against a group of people. Even though his skills and strength had improved, it was still challenging for him. Besides, he had to protect both Mango and Desmond. What would they do if he collapsed?

At the thought of this, Nathaniel was even more determined to win the fight and the people around him finally witnessed his true strength.

Some of the people had slowly given up because they couldn't endure it anymore.

At the end of the fight, everyone knew that their probability of winning against Nathaniel was remarkably low.

Mango couldn't help but cheer when she saw this scene.

"Nathaniel, you can do this!"

Nathaniel's heart skipped a beat when he saw her jumping up and down in excitement.

"My dear, don't jump! You're pregnant now."

While he was distracted, someone took the opportunity and punched him in the face.

Mango felt sorry for him.

"F*ck, you guys are big bullies. Do you really think that we have no one left that can fight?"

Mango rolled up her sleeves and she was about to step into the fight, but she was immediately stopped by Desmond.

"What are you doing?"

"Nathaniel said that you can't go out, and you have to protect me."

Desmond's righteous words immediately made Mango feel a little depressed.

"Please, you are a man. As long as you hide well, you don't need my protection."

"That won't do. What if someone sneaks up on me? You have to stay behind to protect me. Moreover, Nathaniel doesn't need your help at all. You should just refrain from causing any more trouble." Mango was immediately upset after she heard Desmond's words.

"In what way will I stir up trouble?"

"If it weren't for your excited reaction, Nathaniel wouldn't be beaten up by them. Can't you see that? It will take less than five minutes for these people to be knocked down."

Mango immediately turned to look at Nathaniel after she heard Desmond's words. Needless to say, Nathaniel clearly had an advantage over them.

Everyone collapsed in less than three minutes, but Nathaniel was still standing firmly. He was looking alright, except that he was slightly out of breath. Mango admired him greatly.

When she saw that the battle was over, she quickly ran out with Desmond.

"Nathan, you're so great!"

Mango's praise made Nathaniel very happy.

With a faint smile, he pulled Mango closer to him.

"From today on, you guys are no longer a part of the Ye family's Dark Night Empire. I announce that the Dark Night Empire is disbanded, and I will convey this to the leader. As for which family you guys will work for in the future, it has nothing to do with the Ye family. But if you dare to hurt my wife and children, you'll have to suffer and pay the price!"

After Nathaniel finished speaking, he pulled Mango and Desmond with him and was about to leave. At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly stopped them from leaving.
