The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1238

"What are you afraid of the most?"

Mango had known the answer.

She knew that Nathaniel was most afraid of hurting her when he was out of control. Yet she also knew that he would not hurt her, but to himself instead.

It was the circumstance that Mango was most worried about.

Upon hearing Mango asking such a childish question, he staggered for a moment.

With merely a second, Mango appeared right in front of him.

"Nathan, don't be afraid. I'm here, you'll be fine soon."

Mango had thrown out her arms and hugged Nathaniel without any hesitations.

Nathaniel's body was slightly stoned by touching her supple body before pushing Mango away, but Mango quickly grabbed his wrist and said gently, "It's okay, you'll be fine, I'm here. As long as I'm here, I won't allow anyone to hurt you, not even the venoms, I'll think of a way to get rid of it for you. Nathan, you can feel me, right? I know you can do

it."

Mango's tone was soft, like an invisible hand gently caressing Nathaniel's chaotic mind.

Meanwhile, the golden color in his eyes slowly faded away. He held Mango into his arms, and hugged her tightly.

Nathaniel's chest was still aching, but he could feel that he was not suffering alone. His pain seemed to be much alleviated borne by Mango.

He said in a hoarse voice, "Mango, it hurts."

Nathaniel was like a child at that moment, helpless and feeling wronged, which made Mango heart broken.

"It won't hurt for long, Nathan, I'm here for you."

She was murmuring, and soon she felt his head on her shoulders getting heavier and heavier, followed by the sounds of his gentle breathing.

Mango noticed that Nathaniel had fallen asleep.

His brows frowned tightly, perhaps the pain had yet to be eliminated, he wasn't sleeping very peacefully.

Mango asked one of the subordinates to carry Nathaniel to her bedroom with her and lie them down on the bed.

Looking at Nathaniel's pale face, Mango was feeling indeed uneasy.

They had initially thought that the Golden Lancehead Venom would not be a big deal and they would gradually find a way to get rid of it. However, it seemed that it had become a latent crisis.

When Mango pulled the blanket cover over Nathaniel, only then did she discover the gauze wrapped around Nathaniel's wrist.

At that time, blood had dyed the gauze red.

Mango's heart wrenched and she unwrapped the gauze, she seemed to have realized something upon discovering that the wound was actually a knife cut.

She stared at Nathaniel for quite a long time before she took out the first aid kit to bandage over Nathaniel's wrist again. After that, she covered the quilt over him and walked out of the room.

Mango took out her cell phone and gave a call to Noah.

"Do you know how to get rid of the Golden Lancehead Venom? Tell me everything you know."

Noah said somewhat gloomily, "Mango, it's not that I'm not telling you, even I have no idea figure it out. I'm majored in Western medicine, and even if I know briefly about traditional Chinese medicine, it has nothing to do with the venom. It's the special ability of the Miao region, whereby outsiders are not allowed to learn their skills. I've read the Hikasa Manual of Longford County during last time, but I could only learn briefly of it. Moreover, the Golden Lancehead Venom is the ancestor among all the vermin and it can be considered the highest level. I can't even deal with the ordinary vermin, let alone its long lost ancestor. You should ask Wisdom instead, he may know a little more than I do."

Even though Mango had mentally prepared herself, she still felt extremely uneasy and disappointed upon hearing Noah's reply.

"I see. Thank you."

Mango was about to hang up the call after she finished her words, only then did she hear that Noah asked her, "Did something happen to Nathaniel?"

"He's fine besides hurting badly all of a sudden. Plus, he is somewhat short-tempered and easily irritated, nothing else."

Mango did not tell Noah that Nathaniel's eyes had changed their color. Although he had recovered, she was still nervous.

Nathaniel acted as if he had been possessed by something and he was no longer his original self.

Noah said in a low voice, "I'll seek advice from some medical experts but I can't guarantee that someone may know about it. Further information regarding it can only be obtained from Longford County, or you can ask from someone who knows vermin."

Mango nodded after hearing his remarks.

After hanging up, Mango felt somewhat depressed.

In recent times, a series of incidents happened and there were many people injured in succession.

Firstly Newell, then Michael, followed by Zion who got injured and even Nathaniel just suffered painfully.

All the people around them were seemingly to be sustaining something, causing Mango to suspect that it was never an accident.

While Bernard was the mutual person behind all those incidents.

Mango realized that regardless if both Nathaniel and her went to Longford County, there would always be the existence of Bernard.

That man was simply like the enemy hiding in the dark dedicated to target them.

They could temporarily be safe only when they had get rid of that man. Furthermore, Nathaniel had no qualms to eliminate the Golden Lancehead

Venom.

Therefore, Bernard had to die!

In other words, it should be said that Bernard had to be brought to justice.

What could she do as Bernard was staying in Angolla at the moment?

She couldn't go to Angolla to get Bernard back to their own country.

Even if she could enter Angolla, she might not be able to bring Bernard out of there.

After all, she had no idea who the king of Angolla was and the reason why he had defended Bernard.

There were too many unsolved mysteries in which heading to Angolla was a death wish for them. However, their movement would be constrained if they didn't look for him.
