The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1209

Mango and Deborah's expressions changed when they heard Nathaniel's words.

"How could this be? What happened?"

Deborah had never met Carter before, but she could tell that Carter was very important to Walter.

Walter had never brought up Carter. However, when he heard that something had happened to Carter, he was not even in the mood to continue his honeymoon trip.

Well, Walter wasn't a man who would talk about his emotions, but he still valued Carter greatly.

Now that Deborah heard that Carter had gotten into trouble, she started to think about whether Walter could accept the truth or now.

"Get in the car first."

Nathaniel said this as he didn't know what had happened either.

Meanwhile, Mango was a little worried about her children.

Nathaniel seemed to have understood her worries, so he whispered, "It's okay, the servants will be watching over them, so don't worry."

After hearing Nathaniel's words, Mango was

relieved. Then, she got into the car with Deborah.

Then, Nathaniel drove them to a hotel and stopped at the entrance.

They could see that Walter took Carter to the hotel after he found him.

However, there were two police cars there too.

Hence, Mango began to feel a little uneasy.

At this thought, she nudged Nathaniel.

Mango still remembered how they had come out from Ocean City stealthily. When she saw the police car, she was a little stunned and anxious.

However, Nathaniel acted as if he hadn't seen the police cars. Instead, he just held Mango's hand and entered the hotel straightaway.

The atmosphere in the hotel was a little tense.

Mango was getting more uneasy as she walked further down. Although Deborah did not utter a word, Mango could tell that she was very nervous too.

After they entered, Michael's men walked over to them instantly.

"Mr. Ye, this way please."

This man was obviously one of Nathaniel's subordinates.

Then, Nathaniel glanced at him faintly and then followed behind him.

After that, they entered the exclusive elevator.

The elevator soon reached the floor where Walter was at.

However, it seemed that the police had taken over this floor, and they were questioning all the people that were there.

Meanwhile, Mango seemed to have sensed something, so she gripped Nathaniel's hand tighter.

Thus, they felt stressed as they walked to room 609.

Meanwhile, Walter was smoking at the door.

The smoke covered this face, and his expression could not be seen clearly. However, everyone could tell that he was upset.

Deborah walked over to him and held his hand gently. Then, she asked in a low voice, "Are you alright?"

Walter started tearing up he heard Deborah's question.

"Deborah, my dad... he is gone."

He said these words with a hoarse voice and grieving tone.

He suddenly hugged Deborah and sobbed, "Urgh! I'm really an orphan now."

Mango couldn't help but tear up when she heard those words.

After that, Nathaniel guided Mango into the room so that they would give the couple some privacy.

At this moment, Walter needed someone to comfort him, and the person would be Deborah, not them.

After Mango followed Nathaniel in, she saw that Carter was dead.

He was lying on the bed with white liquid at the corner of his mouth, and his face was severely black.

"Was he poisoned?"

Nathaniel frowned slightly as he asked.

Michael nodded and replied, "Yes, he killed himself."

Mango froze at that instant.

Why did Carter commit suicide?

She still remembered how panic-stricken Carter was when she saw him not long ago. In fact, he even did not allow Walter to come here. So why did he kill himself in less than a day?

Why did he commit suicide?

Also, why did he refuse to tell her anything?

Mango had no idea, but she could understand

Walter's feelings.

After all, Walter and Deborah had rushed from far away. However, they didn't expect that Carter to commit suicide, and he even chose to die in front of Walter. Thus, they couldn't accept the truth.

"Did he die before or after Walter arrived?"

"After that."

Then, Michael replied softly, "When Walter arrived, he found Carter. At that time, Carter was not in his right mind and had a high fever. He kept telling Walter to leave, but at that time, we thought that it was because of the fever. So, we found a doctor to check on him, and he put Carter on a drip. He fell asleep slowly after his body temperature dropped. Then, I went out to buy some food for Walter while he went to smoke outside. When he came back, Carter was already dead. He should have been carrying the poison with him all along. If Walter wasn't there, I guess he would have done the same too."

Upon hearing Michael's words, Mango and Nathaniel both frowned.

Carter, who should have been on a trip, appeared here and lived such a miserable life. However, he didn't even dare to let Walter know about this. So, why did he do this?

This question lingered in Mango's mind.
