The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1180

Mango was stunned for a moment. Then, she looked at the caller ID and found that Magnolia was calling her.

However, she did not know how she should react to this call.

After all, Mango had always been cautious of Magnolia. On the other hand, she had also thought that Magnolia was a good person because the latter had helped her twice.

What was more, Mango had actually thought of accepting Magnolia for the sake of Brantley and Queena. However, Mango was disgusted now because Magnolia had paid a visit to the Hans family.

No matter what Magnolia's intentions were now, Mango could not forget that Magnolia had used Barack to deal with her parents before.

Therefore, she hung up the phone. She did not care what Magnolia was thinking, and she walked towards Nathaniel instead.

"Are you alright?"

Nathaniel looked around and saw Victoria, who was lying on the ground pretending to be miserable. Then, he looked at Mango with

concern.

He was carrying soya milk and fried dough sticks. It seemed that he went out to buy breakfast just now.

Then, Mango grabbed the food from his hand and smiled, "It's fine. Everything's settled."

"Well, let's go back to the room for breakfast then."

This time, Nathaniel did not even look at Victoria.

"Sure!"

Mango was in a good mood. Then, she wrapped her arms around Nathaniel's elbow and went back to the ward.

Meanwhile, Victoria was stunned to see that no one was paying attention to her at this moment.

Suddenly, she realised something.

No!

She did not want to go to jail!

Previously, Desmond would never dare to send her to prison!

However, Victoria did not know whether things would remain the same this time.

Suddenly, she was terrified when she recalled the indifference and determination in Desmond's eyes.

After that, Victoria took out her mobile phone quickly and called Josiah.

"Josiah! Desmond, that b*stard called the police to arrest me! You must save me! Help me, please!" Victoria began to cry after finishing her words.

At this moment, Josiah's brain couldn't process what he had heard.

Why Desmond wanted to call the police to arrest Victoria?

What did that mean?

Wait! What on earth was going on?

After all, Josiah knew that Victoria often hit Desmond. However, she never listened to Josiah even though he had warned his wife. Furthermore, it annoyed him because she would quarrel with him and make a mess of his experiments over this matter.

Therefore, he did not stop Victoria from bullying Desmond so that he could do his experiments peacefully.

Anyhow, he knew that Desmond was physically strong, so Victoria's beating would not do any harm on Desmond.

Hence, Josiah would feel more comfortable when he thought of this. In addition, Desmond had been submissive all these years, so Josiah got used to it eventually.

Now, Josiah could not understand why Victoria was telling him that Desmond wanted to put her in jail out of the blue.

Why did he want to arrest Victoria?

What had happened between the two of them?

Then, Josiah said grumpily, "Urgh! Can you stop making such a big fuss out of everything? Stop annoying me!"

After saying that, Josiah hung up the phone straightforwardly.

Heh! How could Desmond have the guts to call the police to arrest Victoria?

Thus, thought Victoria was just messing around.

Furthermore, Josiah could not help but become furious as he thought that Victoria was trying to get him to deal with Desmond as well.

He did not want Victoria to disturb him anymore, so he switched off his cell phone at once.

At this moment, Victoria could not believe that Josiah did not care about her, even though she was in a difficult situation!

Then, she called Josiah again, but her call went straight to voicemail. This indicated that Josiah had turned off his phone.

After that, Victoria smashed her phone onto the ground in anger.

"Josiah, you b*stard! Don't you even care about me?"

However, no one gave her an answer this time.

Soon, the police arrived.

After understanding the situation, Mango sent the video to the police as proof, and then they took Victoria away.

On the other hand, Victoria continued crying and making a fuss, but the police showed no sympathy for her.

At this moment, Desmond was in the ICU while Mango and Nathaniel were having breakfast in the ward. Hence, no one paid any attention to Victoria.

After breakfast, Mango looked at Nathaniel and said, "Desmond is also injured now, and Haniya hasn't recovered yet. Can you move them into the same ward?"

"Sure thing."

Nathaniel did not object to her suggestions.

Then, Mango frowned when her phone rang again.

When Nathaniel saw that she looked upset, he immediately grabbed her phone over and glanced at the caller ID. At this moment, he understood that Mango did not want to answer the phone because Magnolia was calling.

"No matter who she is or what her intentions are, we have to end up talking to her anyway. Besides, she's been leaving some good impressions on Brantley for quite a while, right? If we don't answer her call, that means she'll contact Brantley at anytime soon. Do you think he'll refuse to help her?"

Mango really wanted to kill Magnolia when she heard what Nathaniel had said.

Then, Mango thought to herself, "Yes, I need to protect Brantley."

In fact, Brantley felt guilty. Thus, he would not blame Magnolia no matter what she did to him because he felt that he had wronged her.

Mango felt extremely uncomfortable when she thought of this.

She hated this feeling and the dilemma she was in now, but she had to face it anyway.

Then, Mango took her phone from Nathaniel and answered the call via speaker.

"What's the matter?"

She answered Magnolia's call in a hostile tone.

Even though she knew that it was unwise to do this, she couldn't control her feelings.
