The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1254

Nathaniel's scrunched his brows slightly. Mango subconsciously glanced at the rearview mirror as well. Indeed, a black car was behind them. It was neither too fast nor too slow, but it tailed them like their own shadows.

Mango and Nathaniel exchanged glances before nodded unanimously.

Nathaniel held Rita in his arms while Mango held Wisdom in hers.

"Dad?"

"Mom?"

Both Wisdom and Rita were baffled at the same time.

"Let's get some sleep."

Mango smiled vaguely and Wisdom nodded in response. He closed his eyes and fell asleep in her embrace. Rita saw that he had fallen asleep, so she fell asleep in Nathaniel's lap again since she was already sleepy.

"Go forward! Turn around at the intersection in front of us."

Nathaniel's voice was soft but the driver could hear him clearly.

The car was still moving steadily. At the intersection, the driver made a sudden turn before he braked abruptly. The car behind him seemed to not have expected this. He stepped on the brake in an emergency, but it was too late.

The car hit the fence with a bang. It was a loud clash.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel's car had already turned around and passed by the car tailing them.

Mango couldn't see clearly who was inside the other party's car because it was too dark. She could only feel a cold gaze on them, which was an unpleasant sensation.

Mango frowned as she heard Nathaniel say, "Turn left at the front fork. We'll change to another car after entering the alley."

"Noted, Mr. Ye."

The driver quickly took out his phone and made a call.

Mango didn't ask any questions. She was very quiet, but she seemed to be vigilant. She checked out the surroundings from time to time.

The black car wasn't on their tails anymore. Nathaniel and Mango changed their cars in the alley before they went to the airport.

There was already a private plane there. When they saw Nathaniel and Mango coming over, they quickly opened the cabin door and got Nathaniel, Mango, and the others inside as fast as they could.

Mango only asked after the plane took off, "Who is tailing us?"

"No idea."

Nathaniel shook his head as he seemed to be cautious about it.

Mango's frown deepened further.

"I can feel a hostile gaze that is fixated on us. I'm sure they're not our friends."

"It's okay. I'm here with you. I won't let anything happen to you and our children."

Nathaniel comforted her by holding her hand.

However, she sighed and said, "I'm not afraid that I'll be in danger. I'm simply curious. We've already captured Chief Oxford, so who else would be tailing us? Could it be Bernard?"

"No, Bernard is too busy to target us right now."

Since Nathaniel had said so, naturally he had clues about Bernard's current situation.

Mango did not ask him about it. Instead, she asked in a low voice, "That's strange. Who else would be keeping an eye on us?"

"Let's not worry ourselves over it for the time being. Let's talk about it after we get to Longford

County. If someone is tracking us, he'll give himself away."

Mango could only nod upon hearing Nathaniel's words. However, he seemed to have thought of something as he said, "Could it be Benny's men?"

"I'm not sure. Let's take one step at a time."

They held each other's hands tightly, knowing that this trip to Longford County would likely not be so peaceful.

Nathaniel didn't actually rest along the way, but he urged Mango to nap for a while.

Mango couldn't resist his nagging, so she closed her eyes to rest. Then she fell asleep for some reason.

The plane was about to land when she woke up again.

There was a slight change in her expression as she looked at the familiar place.

She didn't expect that she would return again the last time she was here. Now that she had stepped on this land again, she couldn't pinpoint her exact feelings.

Nathaniel was also deep in thoughts. It seemed as if he was thinking about something, yet also nothing at all. However, his eyes were always gloomy and gave off an unfathomable sense.

After they got off the plane, a car waiting for them at the airport.

When Mango saw that the bodyguards were wearing clothes of the Ye family, she couldn't help but ask, "When did you bring them over here?"

"I've sent them here after she bought the whole village last time. This is her hometown after all."

Nathaniel took Rita as he got out of the car first.

Rita yawned while looking at the empty area in front of her. However, she saw an ancestral hall there, so she couldn't help rubbing her eyes and asking, "Daddy, where is this?"

"It's Longford County."

Rita's eyes lit up in an instant as Nathaniel spoke the two words.

"Is this the Longford County? It differs from my imagination."

Rita was slightly disappointed.

After all, Longford County was also a county. How could it be so desolate?

Meanwhile, Wisdom looked at the scenery in front of him with excitement and asked in a low voice, "Daddy, is that a herb plantation?"

He was a medical student, so naturally, he had keen eyes in this aspect.

Mango recalled that Nathaniel had kept the plantation safe before leaving the last time. Now that Wisdom was so excited, she couldn't help but smile and say, "Yes, that's the herbs plantation. I heard that they've planted a lot of expensive herbs there."

"I can go in and have a look, right?"

Wisdom seemed eager.

Nathaniel nodded in response.
