Mango glanced at her phone. It was from Haniya.
Mango already more or less knew what was up.
"Terrance, help me look after Rita. I'll pick up a call."
Mango did not want Terrance to know anything about Andrea.
Back then, Andrea almost killed Madam Hans. Terrance had not forgotten about this.
"All right."
Terrance could not wait to do something to make up for the fact that he did not take good care of Rita. When he saw Mango's pleading, he immediately nodded and agreed.
Mango patted Rita's head and said in a low voice, "Be good, I'll pick you up once I'm done with the call. Zion and Wisdom are both at home, you'll have someone to play with when you go back."
"Really? That's great!"
Hearing that both of her brothers had returned, Rita could not help but feel a little expectant.
Mango smiled and picked up the phone to a quieter place.
"Yes?"
Mango's voice was not loud, but it carried a hint of dignity.
Haniya whispered, "Mango, the test results are out. It's really poisoning. If someone takes it in too long, it will cause nerve paralysis and hallucinations."
Although Mango had already expected it, when she heard Haniya say that the results had been released, she could not help but feel upset.
What a great move, Andrea!
How could she be so vicious!
It seemed that Andrea was really a rotten person.
"I know. Don't let Brantley know about this. Andrea is my mother's child after all. My grandpa has been an upright person all his life, but he still feels particularly sorry for his family. Although he doesn't like Andrea, he never thought of doing anything evil to her. Therefore, if he knows that his granddaughter wants to kill him, it will be a big blow to him."
Mango said faintly, but her eyes became darker as time went by.
"All right."
Haniya quickly nodded and agreed.
Mango pondered for a moment before saying, "In addition, when Andrea isn't around, help me put some things inside her room."
Haniya was slightly astounded but she eventually agreed to Mango's decision.
After hanging up, Mango took a deep breath.
It was not that Mango was not tolerant to others, but Andrea was really disappointing.
Mango gathered herself together and turned back to Terrance.
"Terrance, I'll bring Rita back first."
"Okay, drive safe. I'll treat you to dinner later."
Terrance knew that Mango had just returned from abroad and had many things to deal with. He did not want things to be too hasty for her.
"Sure."
Mango held Rita in her arms and said with a smile, "Say goodbye to uncle."
"Goodbye, uncle Terrance."
Rita planted a kiss on Terrance's face. Then, she wrapped her arms around Mango's neck and said somewhat expectantly, "Mommy, let's go home quickly."
"All right."
Mango thought that Rita could not wait to see Zion and Wisdom. Then, she smiled at the thought
of that.
Rita was very reliant on her two elder brothers. But what Mango did not know was that Rita was actually thinking about her food.
"What if I go back late and the food that Ryker sent were finished by my brothers?" She thought to herself.
Rita was very worried.
Mango did not know what her daughter was thinking. She carried her directly into the car and drove back to The Ye's Mansion.
Zion and Wisdom were very jovial when they saw Rita.
"Hey, our little beauty is back."
Zion rubbed Rita's head out of habit.
Rita frowned slightly and said in disgust, "Zion, you're really annoying! My beautiful hair style has been messed up by you."
"Really? Let me see."
Zion wanted to tease her a few more times, but Wisdom immediately pulled Rita over.
"Rita, I brought you a present."
"Hm?"
Rita's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Is it something delicious?"
"No, but I can make you happier."
Wisdom's words were mysterious. Rita and Zion could not help but become curious.
"What is that? Wisdom, you are so mean. Only Rita has it?"
Wisdom blushed after Zion's questioning.
"You're not a girl. Why do you need a present?"
"Hey, excuse me! Wisdom, you don't have to be sexist!"
Zion was a little upset.
Just then, Lucy's voice came from outside.
"Rita, someone sent you something."
"I'm coming."
Rita ran pass Zion and Wisdom and sprinted towards the door...
Mango was slightly startled. She looked at Zion and asked, "What's that?"
"I don't know. Not from me."
Zion looked confused.
Wisdom also shook his head. Although he wanted to give Rita a present, he had not taken it out yet.
Rita did not care what they were thinking. When she saw Ryker, her little face lit up.
"Thank you, Ryker."
Rita happily asked Lucy to take the food in and then said to Ryker with a smile, "Help me to thank him."
"Yes, sure."
Ryker nodded. However, he was still shocked.
