The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1011

"Calm down a bit. Since that we've figured out the problem, let's try to think of some solutions. After all, it's too late to say anything else. Neither of us expected that she would target you. After all, all of us knows that you're Sisi's husband, and Sisi adores you very much."

Mango was feeling shocked to learn about this. However, she had to treat his body instead before everything went worsen.

"Doctor, do we need to send Newell to the drug rehabilitation centre with his current condition now?"

This was what Mango feared the most right now.

What if Sisi woke up and unable to see Newell?

How should Mango persuade her to recuperate over and not the Ye's Mansion instead?

The doctor took a glance at Mango and then at Newell again.

Newell's expression was pale. He was trembling all over, whereas his eyes were filled with monstrous rage.

"Urgh! Laney is simply too wicked! I can't believe that she's still Sisi's mother! No way! I can't let her stay by Sisi's side anymore. She may be a bad influence on both Sisi and our kid. Fortunately, she came back only after Sisi got pregnant. Otherwise, there could be problems with our child too!"

Newell was getting even more furious as he spoke. In fact, he would probably beat Laney up and cut her into pieces if he could get his revenge now.

However, Mango understood his feelings well.

After all, parents would always want their best for their children.

Mango patted on Newell's shoulder and comforted him, "It's our fault. Both Nathan and I didn't think our plans through. Thus, you've suffered so much because of us."

"It has nothing to do with Mr. Ye and you. After all, we didn't know that she would betray us, so we never defended ourselves against her. No one would have thought that Laney would act in this way. It's just... I'm worried that Sisi is unable to accept the truth once she finds out about this."

When Newell mentioned Sisi, Mango would tell that he was distressed about this.

However, when she saw that Newell did not blame Sisi for Laney's mistake, nor did he take it out on her, Mango was finally at ease.

"Doctor, what should we do now?"

The doctor also understood Sisi's circumstances. Therefore, he knew that he couldn't let Newell enter the drug rehabilitation center at the moment. So, he pondered for a while and said, "Mrs. Ye, let's do it this way. Our rehabilitation centre can spare a room so that Mr. Powell can recuperate there. However, he needs to make sure that he can resist the addiction using his mere willpower. After all, we can't stop him with force right now. Moreover, if you go through a relapse here, your wife might find out about your condition when she sees you as well."

Newell contemplated the doctor's words solemnly with a bowed head.

He had a frustrated expression on his face as he thought about this.

To be honest, he could not promise that he could withstand the addiction of the drugs all by himself. However, he couldn't leave Sisi alone now because of her current condition. Thus, Newell didn't know how to make a decision.

On the other hand, Mango didn't urge him either. After all, Newell had to make this decision himself.

Newell remained silent for a moment before he finally made up his mind.

"I want to stay here because Sisi needs me. But I can't let her know anything about this. She years for family affection so much. If she knew that her own mother was actually like this, I don't think that she can accept the truth. Well, I know that I may not be able to resist the addiction here on my own, but I have no other choice. I have a wife and kid with me. Alas! What else can I do?"

Well, Mango was not surprised by his choice either.

She nodded in reply and asked the doctor to make these arrangements immediately.

Once again, there were left only Newell and Mango inside the room after the doctor left.

Newell whispered, "Mango, I do hope that you can hide this matter from Sisi for me."

"Well, she will find out about it sooner or later."

"Let's tell her only when we can't hide it anymore. You may never be able to understand an orphan's yearning for family affection, let alone understand how much harm it will do to us once a rift happens in my family."

"I know it well."

Mango sighed and said, "Alas! I came from the Shen family, and I learnt how terrifying family affection was because of all the horrible things that they did."

Newell paused for a moment. Suddenly, he remembered Mango had also encountered a pair of troublesome adoptive parents as well.

"Did they create trouble for you again recently?"

"You don't have to worry about this. Just take good care of yourself and Sisi. Also, you can stay here during this period. Tell Carmel if you need anything. She will take care of both of you."

After saying this, Mango glanced at her watch and found that it was time to leave.

Newell nodded in reply and said, "I'm sorry that I have caused trouble for both you and Mr. Ye."

"Don't say that. Get some rest and recuperate here. I'll come back to visit you both after I deal with Laney."

"Alright. See you then."

Mango walked out of the room and told Carmel, who was standing outside, "Give your WhatsApp number to Newell. If anything happens to him and Sisi here, you have to help them with it.

"Okay, I got it."

After that, Carmel gave Newell her Whatsapp number before she got into the car with Mango. Then, both of them returned to the city.

Carmel wanted to ask Mango something, but she chose not to say anything in the end. Meanwhile, Mango was feeling exhausted emotionally.

Well, she felt uneasy because she was discovering the moles around her one by one.

All her enemies would go to any lengths for their own purposes, but they never considered others feelings. Why were they so many people around her that would do this?

At this thought, Mango sighed and slowly closed her eyes to get some rest.

After all, she was still an injured woman. Hence, it was normal for her to feel somewhat fatigued.

After Carmel drove back to downtown, she had wondered about their destination. She asked subconsciously, "Madam, where are we heading now? Office? The Ye family or the ex-commander's house?"

"Let's go back to the Ye family! It's time for us to meet Laney."

Mango said indifferently.

Carmel nodded in reply and drove back to the Yes Mansion.

By the time Mango returned home, Laney was grilling the smoked fish. However, she was slightly taken aback when she saw Mango.

"Why are you back so early? Newell hasn't come back yet since he went out for some groceries. Come in quick and have a rest! You don't look good. I'm so worried about you!"

Laney greeted her so enthusiastically, so Mango felt slightly awkward.

Why did she look like a guest in her own house?

At this thought, Mango walked into the house and sat down in the living room. She took off her slippers and wrapped her body around the sofa. Subsequently, she took out the remote control and turned on the television.

At this moment, Laney noticed that Mango's expression was indifferent, and a hint of contemplation flashed across her eyes. Yet she still said with a smile, "Mango, you can watch some TV programmes first. Let me cook dinner. I'll give Newell a call to check where he is now."
