The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1009

Mango failed to hold the phone firmly, and it fell directly to the ground while making a crisp sound. Fortunately, she had a high-quality phone, so it continued to ring.

Carmel quickly squatted down and picked it up before handing it to Mango.

Mango took a glance and realized that Sisi was calling her.

Then, she took a deep breath and swiped the answer button.

"Sisi, what's the matter?"

"Mango, when will you come back? I heard my mom say that you'll be coming back for dinner tonight. Do you have time now? I want to go for a checkup. My mother asked Newell to get some groceries, so I'm afraid that the doctors' shifts might be over once he came back."

Sisi said this with an embarrassed tone.

Mango frowned slightly after hearing what she said.

"Why didn't you go for prenatal checkups in the morning instead?" "My mom forgot to remind me about it, and she just told me about them just now. Shall I go tomorrow instead?"

Sisi thought that Mango was busy, so she tried to quickly suggest something else.

Did Laney really forget to remind Sisi about it? Or did she deliberately choose to tell Sisi about the prenatal checkups at this time?

Mango had no idea, but she realized that Laney had gotten rid of Newell on purpose. Laney was obviously trying to get her to accompany Sisi for the latter's prenatal check-up.

Since Laney was already trying to set her up, she would take the bait then!

Mango sneered and said, "Nothing much. I'll be back soon, so you can get ready. Let me give a call to Genevieve along the way. If it doesn't work, we'll go to the military hospital for a checkup so that we won't have to queue up."

"Thank you so much, Mango!"

Sisi was having a hard time as she was pregnant, so she didn't like waiting in line either. However, she would most likely have to wait if she went to the Central Hospital.

If Mango could send her to the military hospital, her prenatal checkups wouldn't take that long as Mango was close with Genevieve.

After Sisi hung up the call, Mango kept the phone away.

She looked into the direction in which Kolton had left.

Kolton had loved Marissa all his life. However, he was not concerned about Sisi at all.

Then, she turned and left Silverbay Prison at this thought.

Meanwhile, Carmel was a little hesitant to speak.

Mango smiled and said, "Are you trying to advise me not to return to the Ye family's Mansion?"

"Are you stupid? Why are you going back if you know that there's a trap there?"

Carmel replied bluntly.

However, Mango liked how straightforward she was.

"Laney has been scheming against us for so long, so I don't think we can evade her forever. So, we should confront her directly and react according to situation."

Carmel was even worried when she found saw how indifferent Mango was. However, she didn't say anything else.

After that, the two of them returned to The Yes Mansion.

When Laney saw Carmel following behind Mango, she was stunned. Then, she asked, "Who's this..."

"She's my bodyguard, Carmel."

Mango answered slowly.

Laney was stunned for a moment, and then she asked with a smile, "Mango, are you bringing along a bodyguard wherever you go now?"

"Well, plenty of people want to harm me recently. Hence, I have to ensure my own safety. Also, some framed Nathaniel, so he's still locked up in the police station. If anything happens to me, he'll be extremely anxious, won't he? Don't you think so too, Aunt Laney?"

Mango said this with a sweet smile. However, she glanced at Laney with a sharp glare, and the latter had to evade her gaze because she couldn't take it."

"Here you are, Mango! I'm ready, so shall we leave now?"

Right at that moment, Sisi walked out of the room.

"Okay, let's go!"

Mango glanced at Laney and asked, "Why don't you come with us as well, Aunt Laney?"

"Nah, both of you will be fine. Let me prepare some delicious food for you guys at home. Call me if anything happens."

"Alright. See you then!"

Sisi was kind to her mother, and she had a warm gaze in her eyes whenever she talked to Laney. Perhaps she depended on Laney more because she was going to be a mother soon.

However, Mango couldn't but frown when she saw this scene.

This was not a good sign.

Mango already knew that Laney was suspicious, so she was afraid that Laney would hold Sisi hostage in the future. How could Sisi bear it if that happened?

Thus, Mango came up with a plan at this thought.

While she walking out with Sisi of The Ye's Mansion, Carmel had already gone out to get the car.

Then, Mango gave a call to Genevieve.

"How have you been? If your body alright?"

"I'm fine. What's up?"

Genevieve knew that Mango would not call her for no reason, so she hurriedly asked.

Mango couldn't say much in front of Sisi. She just uttered, "Erm, if your body is alright, could you do me a favour and come to the hospital? My sister-in-law is pregnant, and she needs a prenatal checkup. So, I don't trust anyone to do this checkup for her other than you."

Genevieve paused for a moment when she heard what Mango had said.

Genevieve wasn't the only gynaecologist in the hospital, and she could easily get another doctor for Mango by making a call. After all, she was the director of the hospital. However, she found it interesting that Mango was asking her to go to the hospital personally.

"Okay, I'll be there soon. You guys can wait for me over there."

After hanging up, Mango looked thoughtful.

However, Sisi said gratefully to her, "Thank you, Mango. I'm not familiar with Noah's wife, so thank you for your help."

"We're family, after all. Since your brother is not around, I have to take care of you."

Mango said these words sincerely. However, Sisi would have to figure out the hidden meaning behind her words herself.

After that, both Mango and Sisi got into the car once Carmel drove it over.

The car soon arrived at the Military Hospital.

Sisi knew that not anyone could get into the military hospital. Hence, she didn't expect that she could come here someday.

Thus, she followed Mango into the hospital excitedly.
