The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1283

Then, Lilian grabbed onto Mango tightly while she fell down. She wanted to protect Mango when she landed on the ground. However, Mango realised it and immediately pulled her straight into her arms.

"You..."

Lilian was very surprised when she saw this.

However, Mango said in a low voice, "You are Maverick's wife. We promised him that we would take good care of you. You're currently pregnant with his child right now, so it'll be terrible if you fell now."

After saying that, Mango pushed Lilian up from the ground by using her body to support her.

Meanwhile, Mango feel as if her ribs were about to rupture as Lilian fell down on her in high speed.

Meanwhile, Lilian was beyond touched by Mango's kind gesture.

Ever since Lilian became Maverick's wife, she was told that she had to protect Maverick's safety under any circumstance. This meant that she had to protect Maverick even it meant sacrificing her own life,

After all, Mango and Nathaniel were people that

Maverick cared about the most. Therefore, she felt that she had the responsibility to safeguard them, or else Maverick would be worried. However, she did not expect herself to be that important in Mango's eyes.

She had been working undercover and had been keeping a low profile. Thus, she used to be someone who could be abandoned at any time. But at this moment, she was extremely touched when she saw that other people cared and respected her too.

Well, no one had ever treated her this way except for Maverick. Hence, Mango was the second person to do this.

She was moved, so she almost feared up and said, "Thank you, Mango Shen."

"You're welcome. But can you help me up first? It hurts!"

Mango felt as if her body had been broken into pieces, so she was in an intense pain.

When Lilian heard this, she quickly helped her up. Just as they just got up, a pistol aimed directly at their heads.

"Don't move! Turn around!"

Mango and Lilian were stunned by the sound of a cold and unsympathetic voice, and their hearts skipped a beat. It seemed that the scene that they feared the most had come true.

Were they really Augustus's men?

Mango lowered her head at this thought. Her heart sank when she noticed that the other party was wearing military boots and a pair of mercenary pants.

She wanted to take out the gun she carried with her secretly, but the other party saw through her.

"I told you, don't move! Or I'll shoot your head."

These words were definitely threatening.

Even if Mango wanted to fight to the death, Lilian was still by her side. Thus, she started to be more cautious as she did not want to act recklessly.

The other side quickly fired their guns.

Meanwhile, Mango felt anxious because she didn't know where Nathaniel was.

"Who are you? We just got in by mistake."

"Shut up! Come with us!"

The person refused to hear Mango's explanation.

Then, Lilian tugged on Mango's sleeve and whispered, "Let's go with them first. We don't have any other choice."

"What about Nathan..."

"He should be nearby. Maybe my blood activated the array formation, so we fell into this place. But

I'm sure Nathaniel is not far away from us."

Upon hearing Lilian's words, Mango was a little more relieved.

As long as Nathaniel was still nearby, they would still be able to find him.

After that, the two of them followed the two mercenaries into a tent nearby.

Mango looked around and noticed that there were a couple of tents there, and they were all built in the open air. Did the mercenaries build these tents to catch them?

They had been on the run for three days, but they still hadn't escaped?

Or had Augustus managed to catch them?

Mango was annoyed at the thought of Augustus. After all, she still ended up falling into his hands despite running around for days, so she felt terrible.

"Get in now! Don't play any tricks!"

The man drove Mango and Lilian into a tent while they said so.

There was no one else in the tent except for both Mango and Lilian. It was relatively spacious, and the man did not follow in but stood guard outside.

Meanwhile, Mango noticed that there was food and beverages available. She recalled Lilian's current condition and said in a low voice, "No matter how long we have to wait, you should eat something to re-energise first."

"Alright."

Lilian's face looked pale, and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Right now, she was in an awful state.

Meanwhile, Mango was afraid that something unexpected would happen to Lilian, and the latter could even lose her child. Hence, she quickly instructed Lilian to lie down on the sleeping bag so that she could rest.

After that, she brought some food and beverages to Lilian before eating some with her.

However, Lilian seemed to be very tired. After finished eating, she couldn't take it anymore and fell asleep. Meanwhile, Mango didn't dare to sleep. She had been sitting next to Lilian while spying on the mercenaries outside by listening to their conversation. However, she was still feeling uncertain.
