The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 280

Initially, Nathaniel had only wanted to scare Zion but when he heard his son say that, Nathaniel became so angry that he stood up and headed for Zion.

"Tell me once again what you’re going to do?"

T m going to matchmake mommy with someone else! I want to change my daddy!"

Clearly, Zion was unafraid of provoking Nathaniel.

Meanwhile, Mango had a very bad headache.

What had Nick taught Zion while he was taking care of him? Why had her son become so irritating?

Even she wanted to hit Zion, let alone Nathaniel.

"Would you like to experience a beating from both mommy and daddy?”

Mango spoke to Zion in a very soft voice.

Zion was stunned as he looked at Mango in disbelief and he said, "Mommy, have you become heartless because your husband is here? You would give up on your son just for the sake of your lover?"

Then, Mango felt pain throbbing in her temples.

"Do you still want to argue with me?"

"Oh no, mommy doesn't love me anymore!”

After that, Zion started to act like a baby as he cried loudly.

On the contrary, Mango felt that Zion seemed to be asking for a savage beating instead.

Then, she pulled Zion into her arms and said softly, "Enough, you should stop. You don't even have tears in your eyes.”

Zion paused slightly before he hurried dabbed some saliva onto the corners of his eyes and he asked in a serious tone, "Do I have tears now?"

"I'll beat the tears out of you if you want."

Nathaniel felt that Zion had caused way too much of a fuss.

This little brat kept finding ways to make his presence known, and Nathaniel wasn't sure if it was because of Zion's trauma from the time when Macy took him away.

Nathaniel had mixed feelings of love and hate towards his son and he said in a soft voice when he saw Zion lying in Mango's embrace, "Come here, I'll carry you instead."

"No way! Didn't I just say I wanted to change daddies? Don't even think of bribing me! First, you hit me, and now you want to carry me, don’t think I'll fall for your tricks."

Zion said this as he turned his head away, as if he really detested Nathaniel.

Then, Mango shook her head and laughed.

"That's enough, stop being dramatic. I remembered that someone was as happy as a fool when they saw their daddy."

"Mommy, are you talking about Wisdom?"

Zion would never admit that the fool Mango was referring to was him.

Nathaniel couldn't be bothered to argue with Zion when he saw Zion like this and he said to Mango, "Were you afraid just now?”

"Yeah, I was so scared that my soul nearly left my body. The car was so fast and Zion was standing right there, it scared me out of my wits!”

Mango was not exaggerating her words and her heart was still racing.

Zion realized that he had really scared Mango and he said sheepishly, "Mommy, I won’t do it again."

"I would still like to stay alive, but honestly you' re going to scare me to death one of these days. Also, why did you come to such a dangerous place like this? Do you know how worried mommy and daddy were?"

"Didn't all of this end well because I showed up? Every adult thinks that I'm gullible just because I' m a child. As long as I pretend to be innocent and naive, those adults think that I'll follow them blindly. However, that’s when their guard is lowest, so it's the perfect time to unleash my skills."

Zion's words shocked Mango.

"Who taught you all of this?"

"Uncle taught me! Uncle said I was very handsome, and it would be a pity if I didn't put this face to good use."

Zion sounded quite prideful when he said that. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Nathaniel was annoyed and he looked at Mango before he said sheepishly, "Nick is really quite unconventional.”

After that, Mango felt a little irritated as well. Initially, Mango was looking forward to meeting Nick but now she wanted nothing more than for her son to stay away from him.

"Your uncle is here as well?"

"Nah, uncle said that it wasn't suitable for him to reveal himself now. After all, a dead man suddenly returning back to life will frighten quite a lot of people. Right now, I think that uncle has gone home to see grandma. Mommy, let's go home as Rita is still waiting for us."

Zion's expression was filled with worry when he brought up Rita.

At the same time, Nathaniel felt uneasy as well.

"Rita's illness can’t afford any more delays. Since we’ ve settled our matters here, I told Mom that I need to hurry home today so we can visit Rita. As for that shipment of goods, we'll have someone else look into it later."

Mango became more anxious after she heard Nathaniel's words.

"Okay! Let’s go home!”

The three of them turned around to leave.

Right then, the supposedly unconscious Sisi opened her eyes suddenly. She became extremely jealous when she spotted Mango and her family who looked happy and content.

Why couldn't she obtain the happiness that she had spent her whole life chasing, but Mango could have it so easily?

How could Nathaniel still continue to enjoy his blissful life?

Why?

After that, Sisi unsheathed a dagger and stabbed Mango.

Nanny Zhang had told her before that no matter what, Mango must not live!

Those words gave Sisi the strength to rush recklessly towards Mango.

"Ah!"

Zion, who was in Mango's arms, became frightened when he saw Sisi’s crazed expression when he turned around.

It was too late for Nathaniel to kick Sisi away from them when he looked back after he heard Zion's shouts.

Thus, he abruptly shoved Mango out of the way.

With a slick sound, the knife pierced directly into Nathaniel’s abdomen.

Because of his height, Sisi had only managed to stab the upper part of Nathaniel's abdomen.

Everyone was caught off guard as it happened so quickly.

Meanwhile, the driver was still inspecting the car because he intended to move the unconscious Sisi into the car. However, he never expected her to wake up and attack Mango.

Mango had no idea what had happened when she felt Nathaniel shove her aside. Then, she stumbled and fell onto the ground.

Nevertheless, she continued to hold Zion tightly in her arms despite the blinding pain and she shouted at Nathaniel, "Nathaniel, what the hell are you doing?"

At first, she had been rather angry, but that quickly turned into panic when she turned and saw that Nathaniel was bleeding from his abdomen.

"Nathan!"

Sisi pulled out the dagger and she wanted to attack Nathaniel again, but she was kicked aside by the driver.

After that, Mango quickly released Zion and rushed over to Nathaniel's side to hug him tightly.

"Nathaniel, are you okay? Oh god, you’re bleeding heavily, what do we do? Is there a first aid kit?"

Mango hadn't realized that she had started to cry.

Her vision blurred and she only saw Nathaniel covered in bright red blood.

When was the last time she saw Nathaniel injured?

The only time that Mango could recall was when Nathaniel stabbed himself as he pleaded for her to forgive him.

Furthermore, Mango had thought that she would never see Nathaniel bleed ever again for the rest of her life, but now she saw it again.

Mango felt as if her heart was going to leap out of her chest.

On the other hand, Zion was extremely frightened and he rushed to Nathaniel's side as he saw Mango weep despondently. He said as he cried, "Daddy, I'll never make you angry again, I won't matchmake mommy with someone else so don't pass out okay? I saw in the movies that as long as someone passes out, they won't wake up ever again. I swear I won't ever make a fuss or prank you ever again, just don't pass out!"

Nathaniel was in a hell of a lot of pain, but he had to fight it when he saw the distressed faces of his wife and son. He said, "I'm fine, just call an ambulance and have me transported back to Ocean City. While I' m still conscious, you have to transplant my kidney to Rita before it's too late."

Mango couldn't help but cry even more when she heard that.

"No! Listen up Nathaniel Ye, if you dare to spout that nonsense again, I won't forgive you! You still owe me a wedding, and you promised to be with me for the rest of my life!"

Mango's cries were especially forlorn.

Similarly, Zion cried loudly as well.

Meanwhile, the driver had subdued Sisi.

She laughed maniacally when she saw Nathaniel bleeding profusely.

"Hahahaha! If I can't be happy, then neither can any of you! Even if Nathaniel doesn't die, you can kiss any hope of transplanting Rita’s kidney goodbye! I'll be happy even if only one of your family members dies! Even if I die, it'll be worth it!"

Mango had never hated anyone else so passionately in her life and she wanted nothing more than to pick up the knife and kill Sisi.

Then, Mango stood up abruptly and went over to Sisi before she gave Sisi a savage beating.

Sisi was stunned when Mango struck her.

Perhaps she really thought that Mango would never hit her.

She looked at Mango in a daze as Mango said, "If something happens to Nathaniel or my daughter, I will give you a fate worse than death!"

Mango’s eyes were as cold as ice, and her frigid gaze caused Sisi to tremble involuntarily before she cackled maniacally, "I'll curse your entire family with eternal misery!"

"You horrible witch! I’ll kill you! I’ll really kill you!”

Now, Zion had raised his small fists and punched Sisi in a frenzy.

By then, Mango had already calmed down.

Nathaniel was injured now and there was no way he could perform the surgery because he needed a blood transfusion.

Then, Mango said to the driver next to her, "Get Mr. Ye to the nearest hospital now! Hurry up!"

"Right away, ma’am!"

The driver immediately knocked Sisi out to prevent any further shenanigans from her and he quickly bound her tightly with a rope before he moved Nathaniel onto the car.

Mango's hands were trembling.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel could feel his life slipping away from him and he gripped Mango's hand and said softly, "If I don't make it, you have to give my kidneys to Rita. If the doctor allows our surgery to be done at the same time, remember to save Rita first instead of me. She's still so young, and she has her whole life ahead of her.”

"I want to keep both you and our daughter alive!"

Mango's eyes filled with tears once again.

She held on to Nathaniel’s hand tightly as she spoke to Zion who stood beside her, "Call Merle and have him arrange for a helicopter to get back to Ocean City as soon as possible. Ask him to bring

all the available doctors and RH blood as well.”

“Oh, okay!"

Zion was flustered as he had thought he wouldn't care about Nathaniel that much. However, at that moment, he felt that his life wouldn't be incomplete without Nathaniel.

He quickly called Merle and the helicopter was prepared expeditiously. However, everyone' s expressions were grave as they had not expected that things would turn out like this.
