The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1257

"Wisdom, you've come back to yourself, haven't you?"

Rita's eyes were filled with delight.

Wisdom could only feel that his eyes were burning. Now he couldn't care about anything else. He also didn't know what had happened to him just now, but the spicy sensation was too strong.

"Where is daddy?"

He couldn't open his eyes yet, but he quickly thought of this.

Rita said hurriedly, "Daddy is still repenting. It's like he is possessed. Wisdom, you're enthralled just now, too. This ancestral temple is strange. Quick, save daddy."

"Just use the method you used to deal with me just now on daddy."

Wisdom could not open his eyes at all right now.

Although Rita's methods were a little more on the extreme side, they worked marvelously.

Rita said with a bitter smile, "I don't dare to do so. That's daddy."

She could try something on Wisdom, but she dared not be so rude to Nathaniel.

Wisdom said hurriedly, "I have to do it now. If we delay any longer, I am afraid that something else will happen. Hurry up!"

"Oh, alright."

Rita stopped hesitating and sprayed Nathaniel's face with the chili water.

"Psst..."

Nathaniel paused abruptly. Then he grunted because of the burning sensation. He heard Rita's timid voice saying, "Daddy, don't blame me for this. I did this to save you. I am not a doctor either, so this is what I can do. Daddy, are you conscious now?"

Nathaniel's heart skipped a beat.

He remembered his reaction just now so he couldn't help frowning. The murderous look on his face scared Rita into hiding behind Wisdom with a shriek.

"Brother Wisdom, will daddy beat me?"

"No, I won't do so!"

Nathaniel was the one who replied.

"Rita, ask the men outside to get some water in a basin here."

"Oh, alright."

When Rita saw that Nathaniel was back to normal, she heaved a sigh of relief.

She had planned to go there in person, but this place was so strange that she thought it was better to stay with her father, just in case.

"Hey, you! Go get a basin of water inside. Hurry up."

Rita looked like a proper lady when she was serious in giving a command.

The bodyguard did as he was told swiftly.

Nathaniel and Wisdom quickly cleaned themselves before leaving the ancestral temple and walked outside.

Wisdom took out an ointment and rubbed it on Nathaniel and himself. Then only the burning sensation faded a little.

Nathaniel looked at the ancestral temple in front of him thoughtfully.

He knew what he had done just now, but it was like being stuck in a nightmare. He could only watch himself venting, but he could do nothing at all.

He knew that these were probably the deepest guilts and thoughts he had.

He blamed himself for it.

He blamed himself for neglecting the change in Nick. He blamed himself for taking up all the responsibilities since he was the eldest son. He honestly thought that Nick could live the peaceful life he wanted as long as he did so. However, it was only wishful thinking.

He did not know if Nick blamed him, nor did he have a chance to know it now. However, it had become the demon that plagued him. It was a hurdle that he could never get over in his life.

A pair of soft little hands reached out and held Nathaniel's big hand.

Nathaniel was slightly shocked as he looked downward at Wisdom's small figure.

He looked in the direction of the ancestral temple and said with a frown, "Daddy, this temple is too strange. Are we still staying here?"

"We have to find the answers here, so we can't leave. Wisdom, thank you for your help just now."

Nathaniel did not forget what Wisdom said after the latter lost his mind just now. Was that the truest thought Wisdom had been concealing?

No matter how nice he and Mango treated him, they were still no match to his biological parents, right?

He actually hated them secretly, didn't he?

Nathaniel was very confused and he was at a loss for words. He could only pretend that he didn't know what had happened just now. Perhaps this would give both of them the respite they needed.

The situation wouldn't be too awkward.

However, Wisdom couldn't understand Nathaniel's painstaking efforts. He whispered, "I felt like I was stuck in a nightmare just now. I knew those words would hurt you, but I still said it regardless. Daddy, I don't know if that's my true thoughts. I don't usually think so, but just now..."

"It's okay, you don't have to explain. I understand. Wisdom, I don't blame you. I'm telling the truth."

Nathaniel felt sad for Wisdom.

When he found out that Wisdom was the only son of Nick five years ago, he had passed down everything in the Ye family to the latter.

However, Wisdom shook his head and said, "I love you, daddy. I love mommy too, but what I said just now seems to be true. So I don't know what to say now and how to face it. We should stop thinking about it and wait for time to show us the truth. Maybe I will be calm and tolerant in the future."

He looked at Nathaniel with a smile. The smile was similar to Nick's.

Nathaniel's heart was hurting slightly.

He was a little remorseful now.
