The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 212

Hence, Nathaniel felt rather despondent.

As soon as he turned around, Wisdom had stood there with his arms crossed in front of his chest and he looked at Nathaniel coldly.

"You little brat, what are you doing here?"

Thus, Nathaniel felt the complete loss of the authority he'd had for the past few years.

Next, Wisdom snorted and he said, "If you want to kiss mommy in the future, can you just go back to your room? Don't you know that we are still underage? Is it really okay for you to mentally traumatize children like this?"

After he heard Wisdom's series of questions, Nathaniel was speechless.

"Brat, you're looking for a beating, aren't you?"

Clearly, he was irritated by all the embarrassment. Then, he quickly raised his arm and he looked at Wisdom fiercely.

Thus, Wisdom was so scared that he ran away and he said, "You may suppress us with force, but we will not give in! If you dare to kiss mommy again in front of us in the future, I'll take photos and post them on the Internet. Humph! Let's see who's going to be embarrassed then!"

After that, he did not dare to stay for a moment longer and he ran outside.

Right then, Nathaniel felt that his life had become devoid of meaning.

This brat even wanted to take a photo of him kissing Mango?

He was really too bold.

Then, Nathaniel thought of Zion.

Not only did that brat take a video of him, Zion even dared to piss in his face.

Right then, he suddenly missed Zion very much.

Zion was his beloved son!

Then, Nathaniel took out his mobile phone and he dialed a string of numbers that he had memorized.

For some time, the number never got connected. However, as the familiar ringtone sounded, Nathaniel's heart sped up.

The phone rang for a long time, but no one had answered.

Then, Nathaniel's expectant heart sank bit by bit into disappointment.

Perhaps this number already belonged to someone else, and the other person might not know him at all.

Thus, an unprecedented sense of loss made Nathaniel particularly distressed.

After that, he sat on the bench in the corridor and Nathaniel's mind was full with visions of Nick's bloody and mangled body.

How could a person survive that kind of injuries?

Perhaps the fact that Nick was still alive was just a lie made up by Madam Ye to make Mango and him feel at ease.

Thus, Nathaniel smiled bitterly.

Soon after, his phone rang again.

When Nathaniel saw the familiar number, he was ecstatic.

Thus, he could not believe that he actually managed to answer the call and his breathing was rapid.

However, the person on the side was not eager to speak. After the call connected, silence emanated between both of them.

Hence, Nathaniel wanted to speak but he felt as if a lump had formed in his throat. Thus, he wanted to speak but nothing came out.

Finally, a sigh came from the other side and then a familiar voice sounded.

"Brother."

Nathaniel had not heard this word in five years, and hearing it now made his eyes moist suddenly.

"Nick?"

"Brother, long time no see."

Nick's voice was as crisp as ever, and it made a lump form in Nathaniel's throat.

"You're such a brat. Was this all a fun game for you?"

Nathaniel had not wanted to be so angry, but he could not control himself after he started speaking.

"Brother, don't be so agitated. We will meet sooner or later, mom would somehow tell you the detail."

"If mom hadn't told me, were you planning on never telling me for the rest of my life?"

Hence, Nathaniel felt that it was in vain for him and Nick to have been brothers.

He had hidden it for such a long time!

Nick cleared his throat and he said, "No, I wanted to wait and I would tell you when the time was right. Look at you, you're still so angry even when you grow old."

"F*ck off!"

Nathaniel's voice was hoarse at this moment.

However, Nick laughed and he said, "Brother, you called me to ask about Zion's wellbeing right?"

"You still have the balls to say that? You secretly took Zion away without telling me, and you didn't even send a message! Do you know that your sister-in-law almost went insane?"

When he thought of Zion's disappearance and the painful look on Mango's face, Nathaniel became furious.

Nick was embarrassed and then he said, "Zion was in a poor condition when I saved him. He sustained many injuries, and he lost too much blood so he fell into a coma. I had to save him first. As for anything else, I could only wait because there were too many rumors and I was afraid of alerting our enemies. Don't you guys already know about it by now?"

"How is Zion?"

Hence, Nathaniel was a little worried when he heard that his son was injured like that.

"He's much better now, but he's still recuperating. That woman was vicious and she broke two of Zion's ribs, so he can't get out of bed now and he needs rest. So if sister-in-law wants to see Zion, you'd better wait. I'm afraid that she will cry when she sees what he looks like."

Nick's words were true.

"Two of Zion's ribs are broken?"

"Yes."

After Nick finished speaking, he fell silent.

After all, it was Macy who hurt Zion, and indeed, Macy and Nick had a brief relationship previously.

Although Macy was dead now, it did not mean that her deeds were eradicated. Moreover, the child was his nephew.

"Brother, I'm sorry."

Thus, there was a hint of regret in Nick's voice.

Nathaniel knew what Nick was talking about and Nathaniel said in a low voice, "Why are you apologizing to me? It wasn't your fault."

"But she was my woman long time ago."

"Are you sure about that?"

Hence, Nathaniel's words made Nick fall silent again.

Although Macy had given birth to a son for him and she had a sexual relationship with him, Nick knew that the person Macy truly loved was Nathaniel. Nevertheless, this topic had become awkward now. Moreover, Macy was dead and he did not want to bring it up anymore. "Brother, do you know about mom?"

Thus, Nick changed the subject.

As he heard this, Nathaniel's heart sank.

The two brothers fell silent again.

Nathaniel recently found out too much about Nanny Zhang, which made it difficult for him. Originally, his feelings for Nanny Zhang were very complicated. Later, after he learned that she had done so many evil things, he finally made up his mind to punish her. Unfortunately, she was his biological mother.

Hence, Nathaniel did not know how to deal with this awkward situation. Now that Nick had asked, Nathaniel was silent for a while before he spoke, "Do you have anything else to say?"

"She can only blame herself."

Nick only said these five words, but it carried a heavyweight behind them.

No one really cared about blood relationships, but sometimes some things could not be overlooked even though there were blood relations.

"Brother, if you can't do it, then I'll do it."

Anyway, Nick finally said it.

Most of the time, Nathaniel felt that Nick was more like an elder brother than he was. This was because he always secretly protected him.

Then he said in a low voice, "I'll do it instead because it's not convenient for you to come out."

"Alright. If you can't do it, then leave it to me."

"Well, I was just wondering if it's true that there's still an uncle on the dark side?"

As he spoke of this, Nathaniel was solemn.

In truth, he did not know very much about this uncle of his. Could it be that all of these events had something to do with him?

Then, Nick cleared his throat and he said, "Sort of. According to the information we found over here, Nanny Zhang is Uncle's subordinate."

At this, Nathaniel remained silent for a long time.

His biological mother was his uncle's subordinate but she had children with his father. Truly it was complicated, but also very ironic.

Then, Nick sneered and he said, "It's hard to imagine, right? It's hard for me to understand as well. Uncle wants to control the whole Ye Family, the deal was that he would control the Dark Night and Nanny Zhang would control the HY Group. What's more, she poisoned Wisdom to control us when the time was right. Thankfully, Mango found out about it in time and she saved Wisdom. Please thank her for me"

Upon hearing Nathaniel's words, Nathaniel felt a surge of anger rose in his heart.

"Is she crazy? Wisdom is her grandson!"

"She has a good grasp of medical knowledge, so she won't kill Wisdom. But it can't be denied that Wisdom is very important to us. Our family has been in dire straits for many years. Brother, the Dark Night actually belongs to the country, it's just that the Ye Family was chosen to have it. Both of us were in the military, and all the Ye Family's children serve the country with their all. If Uncle and Nanny Zhang want the Ye Family's private assets, then they can have it. However, the Ye Family does not really completely belong to us."

"I understand that."

Furthermore, Nathaniel was once a soldier. What could he not understand about the situation?

The Dark Night Empire was a well-honed weapon as well as an intelligence network that served the country. Hence, that involved many things and it could not be judged by private familial interests and relationships alone.

Next, Nathaniel took a deep breath and he said, "I know what to do. Take good care of Zion. Oh, ask him to call your sister- in- law when he can. She misses him very much."

"Will do."

Then, Nick hung up the phone but Nathaniel's heart was very uneasy.

The more he found out about things, the heavier his heart became.

Thus, the most urgent thing now was to get back to Ocean City as soon as possible. Truly, it was hard to do some things if he was in America.

Not long after Nathaniel hung up the phone, the door of the ward opened.

Then, Mango dragged him in as she looked around her like a thief. When she found that there was no one around, she quickly closed the door.

At this, Nathaniel suddenly wanted to laugh.

"Why does your expression make me feel like we're having an affair?"

"Shut up!"

The blush on Mango's face had not yet subsided fully, which made her look particularly charming and attractive.

Next, Nathaniel grabbed her waist and he said, "We're already an old married couple, what is there to be shy about?"

"Let me go! I have no more dignity in front of the kids, and what should we do about Rita?"

"What do you mean by 'what should we do'?"

Nathaniel was a little perplexed.

Then, Mango was so angry that she extended her fist to punch him and she said, "Rita said she wanted to give herself fully to Wisdom! How can that be? What's more, she also wanted to kiss Wisdom. This..."

"Don't worry, she's still young and she won't be so fussy in a few years. Besides, do you think that Wisdom will let her get away with it? Don't worry, Rita will be fine in a few days." © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Truly, Nathaniel did not care too much about it.

However, Mango pouted angrily and she said, "I don't care. In the future, you are not allowed to touch me or kiss me outside. You have to keep a distance from me and you will set a good example for the children. Look, what are we to do now?"

"What are you talking about? We'll tell them that love is stronger than anything else!"

After Nathaniel spoke, he lowered his head and he kissed Mango.

Mango was caught off guard. Hence, she resisted for a long time, but she failed to resist Nathaniel's attack. Then, she sunk deeper into the kiss and her eyes started to glaze over.
