The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1053

A sudden thought flashed through Mango's mind, and she quickly said, "Well, I don't think I can send anyone to you right now because they all have tasks to do. If you really need help, I can lend you the people from Dark Night Empire."

"Huh? Dark Night Empire?"

Thomas paused for a moment when he heard these words.

But he nodded quickly.

"Okay, thank you, Madam."

Mango hesitated for a moment before asking, "Thomas, you've been with Nathaniel for so long. I have something to ask you."

"Madam, please go ahead."

"Who designed my wedding dress?"

Thomas was slightly stunned to hear her question.

"It was Mr. Ye who hired the designer from abroad. What's wrong?"

"As you know, my wedding with Nathaniel was held in a hurry. Also, it takes time to design a dress, so I wanted to ask..."

Mango suddenly paused and never finished her sentence.

She felt a little conflicted.

Eight years had already passed since the wedding. Besides, no matter who the designer was, she was still Nathaniel's wife, wasn't she?

Why did she have to care about who the dress was initially designed for?

When Mango thought of this, she hurriedly said, "Forget it, just let it be."

"Madam."

Thomas called out to her suddenly.

Mango's hand trembled slightly. Although she didn't say anything, it was obvious that she was very nervous.

"Yes? What is it?"

"That dress was specially made for you."

Mango was once again taken aback by his words.

"But didn't Nathan refuse to meet me before the wedding?"

"Did Mr. Ye tell you that?"

Thomas smiled and said, "Madam. When you were in college, Mr. Ye noticed you at first glance and praised you because you had an elegant aura.

During that time, Mr. Ye's junior was studying costume design and needed some inspiration. However, she just couldn't find any. Thus, he gave her your body measurements and asked her to design a dress for you. Surprisingly, it was the dress you wore last time when you got married. Well, I believe that Mr. Ye must've fallen in love with you at first sight. However, I didn't realize it until now. After all, Mr. Ye didn't pay much attention to Macy Cho either."

Mango was touched when she learnt about this unexpected news.

"But how did he know my size?"

"Madam, do you still remember that the theatre club made custom- made clothes for the participants? They have your measurements, right? So, he got it from there. Also, there's one more thing I have to tell you."

"What's that?"

"On the day of the party, Mr. Ye was the one who swapped your drink."

Mango was stunned to hear this.

"What did you say?"

Thomas whispered, "Don't tell Mr. Ye about what I said. Back then, Macy wanted to scheme against Mr. Ye. Before Mr. Ye knew about this, she had already drugged his glass of wine. However, there were a lot of people that day, and it was too late to amend it. Mr. Ye said that since Macy plotted against him, the drugged wine would be with Macy. Therefore, he asked me to keep a close eye on you and swap your drink at the critical moment."

Mango's eyes suddenly widened in surprise.

"Why me?"

"All because you like Mr. Ye."

"But didn't he hate me back then? I thought that Macy would be a better candidate to be his wife."

Mango could not figure this out.

However, Thomas smiled and said, "Madam, it seemed that you don't know Sir's character well at all. Macy used to address herself as Mr. Ye's girlfriend, but he never responses to this. Therefore, the public thought that he had admitted the relationship. In fact, he just didn't bother to explain about it. Mr. Ye has feelings for you and favoured you more than Macy. He rather build a relationship with you than with Macy, so he drank the wine inevitably. Also, he wanted you to drink the other cup of wine."

Mango was speechless to learn all of this.

No wonder Nanny Zhang, Susie Zhong, and Macy could not figure out how the drugged wine ended up in her hands. It turned out that it was Nathaniel

who did it.

Who would have thought that Nathaniel would scheme against himself?

"Since you said that Nathaniel has a good impression on me, why didn't he care about me after three years of marriage?"

"Madam. Although Mr. Ye was not passionate after you got married, did he any get into any scandals? Did he show interest in another woman? Before you were caught up in the accident, he felt comfortable as long as he could spend time with you. Therefore, he just behaved like how he used to be. However, he always prepared gifts for you during special occasions like your birthday, didn't he? This wasn't something he used to do. However, he didn't know how to act like a good husband because he had never learnt how to do so."

Mango was deep in thought after hearing what Thomas had said.

Indeed, although he didn't show any affection to her during the three years when they just got married, he had taken care of her fluctuating emotions. Back then, her parents were angry with her because she had ruined her reputation and cut off contact with her. Since then, she used to hide alone on the balcony and cry secretly. However, she would always find a piece of cake on the balcony every time she went there.

She thought the maid of Nanny Zhang had given the cake to her, but now it seemed Nathaniel had prepared it.

He had always paid attention to her, but he just wasn't that good at expressing his love. After all, he was satisfied as he could live a comfortable life with her. However, he never expected that everything would change after Macy returned home five years ago.

Thus, Mango immediately started recalling all her memories.

When she came back to her senses, she realized that Thomas had hung up the phone.

Then, her lips curled up slightly into a smile.

Well, well, Nathaniel had a cold appearance, but who would've thought that he was actually such an emotional person?

Mango smiled happily and called Henry Zhang. Then, she asked him to let the people from Dark Night Empire assist Thomas. She also inquired about the Hikasa Manual.

However, Henry hesitated to answer her.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Mango noticed his strange behaviour and asked anxiously, and her heart skipped a beat as she waited for his answer.

Henry paused and said, "Madam, we found the Hikasa Manual in the ancestral temple."

Mango was overjoyed to hear this news.

"Really? When will you come back?"
