The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1288

"Nathan, are you alright?"

Mango couldn't help but feel worried when she saw Nathaniel suddenly kneeling on the ground.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel felt his chest burning as if something was about to burst out of it. Therefore, the tearing pain was almost unbearable.

"Nathan!"

His face took on a ghastly expression due to the intense pain, and he almost threw Maverick away.

Meanwhile, Lilian quickly helped Maverick up while Mango hugged Nathaniel's elbow to support him.

"Hey! Are you okay? Are you not feeling well?"

Nathaniel's face was very pale, and beads of sweat kept dripping on the ground. It was as if the Golden Lancehead Venom in his body had some sort of connection with Maverick.

Could it be...

At this thought, a trace of doubt flashed across Nathaniel's mind.

Then, he cut open his wrist with a dagger subconsciously, and drops of red blood fell into Maverick's mouth.

Meanwhile, the smell of blood stimulated Maverick's senses. He opened his mouth unconsciously and drank the blood of Nathaniel.

The scene was somehow strange and bloody, but no one spoke a word. Meanwhile, Mango looked at Nathaniel with a heart-wrenching expression. His face became even paler when his blood flowed into Maverick's mouth.

Soon, Nathaniel couldn't hold on any longer. After that, Mango quickly tapped Maverick's neck to knock him out. However, his complexion looked a little better, while Nathaniel was a little dizzy.

After that, Lilian quickly pulled Maverick out of Nathaniel's embrace, while Mango held Nathaniel in her arms.

"How are you doing? Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. Let's go quickly."

Nathaniel nodded after saying this.

Then, he glanced at Maverick and found that the latter's complexion had gotten better. Then, he whispered, "If I'm right, there should be a Golden Lancehead Venom in his body. When the two insects interact with each other, they will respond in opposite ways. I'm currently using my blood to suppress the poison in his body so that he can have temporary relief. But to cure him completely, we'll need to find Wisdom. Let's hurry back before people from the outside find us." "Alright."

Mango nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, Lilian glanced at Nathaniel and Maverick. Then, she helped Maverick out of the room without saying a word.

The four of them did not speak along the way. After exiting the secret passage, they returned to the Morgan's barracks in the deep forest. Meanwhile, Wisdom and Rita had arrived.

Furthermore, Angela also came with them.

"Quick! Take a look at Maverick!"

Nathaniel was a little anxious right now.

On the other hand, Mango was worried about Nathaniel's condition. Thus, she asked the other doctors to prescribe Nathaniel some blood tonic medicine.

Meanwhile, Wisdom quickly came over.

After examining Maverick, he said seriously, "I think this happened due to the Golden Lancehead Venom. I don't know much about it, so I think only my master can help him now."

Nathaniel's eyes slightly darkened at this thought.

Suddenly, he remembered his original plan.

"Is Bettany still in Longford? How is the situation over there?" "Augustus trapped Bettany in Longford Village, but he couldn't break in. Thus, both of them are at a stalemate, so the situation there is pretty tense."

Morgan came in all of a sudden and answered Nathaniel's question.

After hearing that, Nathaniel frowned slightly.

He knew that Bettany would have a hard time since he didn't provide her any support. Moreover, she had held down the fort on her own for three days, so this was already impressive."

"Bring our bodyguards and call Bettany. Tell her to work us so that we can arrest Augustus."

At this point, Nathaniel felt that there was no need to let go of Augustus.

"My men can help you too," Morgan said hurriedly.

After all, Morgan was determined to catch Augustus.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel nodded and was about to take action with them. However, Mango stopped him.

"Are you sure your body can handle this? Why don't I do it?"

"You stay here and take care of them. Don't worry. I'll be fine."

Nathaniel looked at Mango tenderly and said in a

low voice.

After going through tons of ups and downs for the past few years, he cherished her presence even more. Thus, he was confident that he could take care of himself for her sake.

When Mango saw that it was nearly impossible to stop Nathaniel, she ordered someone to bring some supplements for him.

"Drink this before you leave."

"All right."

After saying that, Nathaniel patted Mango's head and eat up the medicine. Then, he felt a warm kiss on his lips.

This was the first time Mango had kissed him in front of everyone. Thus, Nathaniel froze for a moment, and his entire body went numb. In fact, he almost had an urge to pounce on her.

His blood was boiling, and his heart was burning with desire. Then, he hugged her tightly into his embrace and rubbed himself over her body.

Mango's breathing quickened, but she still pushed Nathaniel away. At this time, her face was already flushed.

Meanwhile, the men around were watching them excitedly.

Then, Morgan coughed twice and said to

Nathaniel, "Ahem! Well, you should probably stop now. Stop making us jealous."

After hearing this, Nathaniel immediately grinned like a child. His bright smile was very dazzling, and it made people feel a little envious from the bottom of their hearts.

"I'll be back soon, alright? Wait for me at home."

"Okay, be careful."
