The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 299

Madam Ye didn't dare delay any longer and she quickly followed behind Nathaniel.

Meanwhile, Edolie was still being bandaged up by the doctor.

Zion had poked her wound so hard until her stitches tore, and it hurt Edolie so much that she screamed in pain. Moreover, she had to bear it as she couldn't have any painkillers.

The more painful it was, the angrier Edolie became.

She couldn't believe that she had been bullied by a kid!

This was absolutely outrageous!

"Where's that little brat? Bring him to me, I'll kill him!"

Then, Edolie began to cry out in pain.

The nurse completely ignored her, but she was shocked when Nathaniel suddenly entered the room.

"Who are you going to kill?"

Nathaniel's sudden appearance stunned both Edolie and the medical staff, and they started to become a little nervous.

Edolie was the Ye Family's honored guest, so they didn't really know how to explain all of this to Nathaniel especially since his expression was eerily grim.

There was a hint of surprise in Edolie's eyes when she saw him enter the room, but it quickly changed to an expression of pity as she said, "Mr. Ye, I've been bullied."

"Really? Who bullied you? Who dared to bully the respected guest of the Ye Family?"

Nathaniel sneered. There was a hint of sarcasm in his voice, but unfortunately, Edolie didn't hear it.

The medical staff wanted to step forward and say something, but they were stopped by Nathaniel's cold glare. Hence, all of them stood aside silently.

If Nathaniel got angry, all of the staff in the hospital could easily lose their jobs.

So, they cursed Edolie silently in their hearts. Why would she provoke a small child for nothing? Now that they had gotten involved in this situation, Nathaniel's cold attitude scared them greatly.

However, Edolie was secretly overjoyed because she thought that Nathaniel was angry for her sake and she decided to exaggerate her claims.

"Mr. Ye, I don't know who that kid even is, but he ran inside the ward and poked my wound until it ended up being infected. Furthermore, that little brat told me not to provoke him because his father is very powerful in Ocean City. Why are kids nowadays so ill-mannered? His parents are even worse as they've failed to keep an eye on their son and even let him run amok. Honestly, they should send him to the police station to teach him some discipline."

"Is that so?"

Madam Ye's voice also rung out inside the room.

Edolie suddenly felt something was wrong when she saw Madam Ye come in, but she still nodded and said, "Yes, Madam Ye. This kid's entire family is way too arrogant. So don’t you think this is an insult to the Ye Family?"

"No, Madam Ye and Mr. Ye, the incident wasn't like that!"

The nurse couldn't bear to hear Edolie's lies any longer, so she stepped forward to tell the truth without caring about whether she would lose her job.

However, Edolie glared at her and said, "Since when do you have the right to speak?"

"Why can't she say something? She's a nurse that the Ye Family employed."

As soon as Madam Ye said this, Edolie didn't dare to retaliate at all.

In truth, Madam Ye had employed this nurse.

When the nurse heard what Madam Ye's had said, she told them what had actually happened.

"Madam Ye, that child came to this room to use the bathroom as there wasn't anyone in his ward. Then, Miss Edolie asked me to get him out of here, but she threw a glass of water at me when I refused to comply. Because of this, she accidentally pulled on her stitches, so I went to call for help. I left the child here to go to the bathroom because I thought Miss Edolie wouldn't be able to get off the bed to hurt the child, but when we returned..."

The nurse trailed off as she didn't know how to explain further, but Nathaniel and Madam Ye already knew how the events played out.

It turned out that Zion came here to use the bathroom.

They didn't suspect anything was wrong as they were too distressed over Zion being hit.

It was normal for children to enter a random ward, but a teenage girl frantically slapping a four-year- old child was simply unbearable.

Meanwhile, Edolie couldn't help but become anxious when the nurse told the whole truth.

"No Madam Ye, it's the kid who came here on purpose to stir up trouble. He wasn't here to use the bathroom, he was here to make things difficult for me. Look at my wound, he'd used his finger and ripped it open just now."

"Miss Edolie, you need to have a conscience when you speak. That child bears no ill will against you, so why would he cause you trouble for no reason?"

The nurse asked angrily and Edolie was rendered speechless.

Meanwhile, Madam Ye's face was quite grim and she coldly said, "Bring that child to me."

Then, the medical staff hurried to do it.

Soon, Zion was brought into the room.

When Zion saw Nathaniel and Madam Ye, he immediately burst into tears and threw himself into Madam Ye's arms.

"Grandma, I've been bullied."

Edolie was confused when Zion called Madam Ye his grandmother.

"What did you just call her?"

Zion ignored Edolie as he raised his head with an aggrieved expression and said, "What do I do? I'm disfigured! How will I ever find a wife in the future?"

Usually, Nathaniel would mock Zion when he heard this. Honestly, what would a child know about marriage?

However, Nathaniel's face darkened with rage when he saw how swollen Zion's face was.

"Does it hurt?"

He said faintly, with a hint of heartache in his tone.

Then, Zion nodded quickly.

"Daddy, this mean woman hit me! Boohoo, she hit me! It hurts so much! I don't even want to talk anymore as my mouth hurts a lot!"

As he spoke, he stuck out his tongue and there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

Madam Ye's heart ached terribly for Zion.

"Edolie, you've crossed the line! No matter what my grandson dis, he's just a four-year-old child! How could you be so vicious to a child? I'm grateful to you for saving my granddaughter, but that doesn't mean you can hit my grandson without a valid reason!"

Madam Ye's words hit Edolie like a truck.

"What? He, he's the grandson of the Ye Family?"

She was absolutely astonished!

How could this be?

Then, Zion continued, "I told you that my daddy is the most powerful person in Ocean City, but you said you're not afraid at all. You're such a nasty woman! It's too bad that my mom wasn't here, if not she would never let you bully me. What's more, you said that my Mommy wasn't worth your time, let alone me."

As soon as he said this, Edolie became anxious.

"When did I ever talk about your mother?"

"You did, you told the nurse that Mango Shen wasn't worth your time, let alone a little brat like me. The nurse was here, right? Nurse?"

Zion shifted his gaze towards the nurse.

The nurse was somewhat embarrassed, but she still nodded and said, "Yes, Miss Edolie did say that."

The nurse had no idea that the small child in front of her was the grandson of the Ye Family. If she had, she might've had a heart attack at the start.

Oh no!

Edolie had beaten the grandson of the Ye Family! Furthermore, as a nurse, she felt that she didn't do her job well! Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

The nurse became increasingly afraid as she thought about this.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel's face was as cold as a glacier.

"What do you mean when you said that Mango isn't worth your time?"

He asked coldly.

Edolie suddenly became a little scared.

"No, it doesn't mean anything. I just said it for fun." "Nonsense, there's no way you said it for fun. My mommy's face is so swollen, were you the one who did it? I'm sure that you must have hit her as well!"

Zion's voice was especially loud as he accused Edolie.

At this, Edolie panicked at once.

"I didn't! I really never hit Mango! Furthermore, I didn't know he was a member of the Ye Family. If I knew, I would..."

"You wouldn't have hit me right? Because you're afraid of offending the Ye Family. However, you're really a nasty woman. My Mommy never uses makeup, not even when she received an award on stage, so how could she be allergic to makeup? I just came to visit you, but you ended up bullying me instead. You're such a nasty woman!"

The more Zion talked, the more agitated he became. However, Nathaniel and Madam Ye's expressions soured further.

"What is going on?"

Suddenly, Madam Ye recalled that the nurse would have been at the scene and her gaze subconsciously shifted to the nurse.

The nurse shuddered and hurriedly said, "Miss Edolie wanted Mrs. Ye to pour her a glass of water. After Mrs. Ye did that, she handed it to Miss Edolie but Miss Edolie splashed the hot water onto Mrs. Ye's face. At the time, I was shocked and I rushed out to find a cold compress for Mrs. Ye, but you arrived when I returned."

Nathaniel's fists tightened after he heard what the nurse said and he couldn't wait to beat Edolie into a pulp.

Did this teenage girl splash hot water on his wife's face?

His wife and child were bullied under his watch, and yet Mango didn't say a word to him. Hence, this fact made Nathaniel very angry.

At the same time, Madam Ye's expression also darkened.

It turned out that this was the truth.

She'd called Mango petty and she even assumed that Mango was jealous of Edolie. However, she never expected that Mango was innocent.

She even criticized Mango.

What sort of mother-in-law was she?

At that thought, Madam Ye's expression soured even more.

Edolie suddenly started to panic.

"No, Madam Ye, Mr. Ye, Mango had bribed this nurse to set me up intentionally!"

"Then was hitting my son also a set up?"

Nathaniel glared coldly at Edolie and his gaze forced her to look away.

She broke out in cold sweat due to the pain of her wound, but right now she couldn't care less. In fact, she suddenly realised that everything she obtained by donating her kidney was about to slip from her grasp.

No!

This can't be!

How could she destroy this opportunity that she had risked her life for?

Edolie's mind raced to find a solution.

Then all of a sudden, she burst into tears and she acted as if she was extremely sad and pitiful.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. However, Mango forced me to do this. She wanted me to leave Ocean City and the Ye Family, and forbid me to approach you. I only acted this way out of anger. As for Zion, I didn't know he was your son but truthfully, I only hit him because he aggravated my wound."

Edolie's words made Zion burst into tears.

"I want my Mommy! Boohoo, my face hurts so much! Where's Mommy?"

Zion didn't need to refute Edolie's statements. Instead, he only needed to cry to garner the sympathy of Nathaniel and Madam Ye.

At that moment, the sound of quick footsteps approached them.
