The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1289

"Who are we meeting?"

Mango seemed to have not heard him clearly.

Then, Nathaniel looked at her teary eyes and hugged her tighter.

"Well be meeting Barack. Doris said that Bettany will take her to meet him."

After hearing this, Mango laid on Nathaniel's chest and listened to his strong heartbeat. She was obviously a little shocked.

"Is Doris here too?"

"Well, although I don't know how the two reconciled, Bettany could save Longford County only with Doris' help. I used to think that Longford County meant a lot to Bettany, but I don't think so anymore."

Then, a trace of doubt flashed across Nathaniel's eyes as he said this.

Then, Mango sat up from Nathaniel's embrace. She looked at him in the eyes and asked, "What's wrong? Are you suspicious of Bettany now? Is it because she knew of Barack's whereabouts but didn't inform us?" "Aren't you suspicious of her too?"

Nathaniel couldn't help but frown upon seeing Mango's reaction.

After hearing his question, Mango shook her head and stood up before walking to the window.

The people outside were still busy because they were afraid that outsiders would know about the presence of Morgan and his team. Although Rita and Angela were not around, the atmosphere was still tense, even though they had caught Augustus.

Perhaps it was because of the well- trained bodyguards of the Ye family or maybe of her insecure feelings. However, Mango still felt that the atmosphere around them was too tense.

Just then, Nathaniel walked over and hugged her from behind.

After all, he liked to hold Mango this way. Her body was so soft, so he felt that he had everything he wanted with her in his from. Thus, he felt satisfied, and ot was a kind of satisfaction that could never be replaced by money or fortune.

"You seem to have other opinions about Bettany."

Nathaniel's voice was soft and slightly hoarse, but he sounded a little tired.

Mango felt bad for him, so she rubbed his hand gently and said in a low voice, "No matter what Bettany's status is, she's a woman. The thing that she regrets the most in her entire life is probably her son's death. However, she endured the pain as she didn't even have the right to pour her emotions out like any ordinary woman. She still has a mission and responsibility on her. After all, she feels stressed because of the destruction of the village, so she's almost worn out. That's why the unfortunate loss of her son will always be a pain that can never be erased. Furthermore, that's why she accepted Wisdom and even treated him as her son. Anyway, I believe that she cares for Wisdom sincerely."

"I never doubted her true feelings for Wisdom, but that doesn't explain her current behaviour, right?"

Nathaniel was a man, so he obviously could not understand a woman's thoughts.

Mango smiled and said, "Yes. If Bettany cared about Wisdom, she would be willing to put the matters of Longford County behind her. Also, her burden will be lessened with you around. Under such circumstances, she will protect Wisdom like her own child. Therefore, I think that there must be someone monitoring Wisdom, and we might not know about this."

Nathaniel was slightly taken aback when he heard what Mango had said.

"Why do you think so?" "If there was no one threatening Wisdom's safety, there would be no reason for Bettany to keep the truth about Barack Hans from us. If I've guessed correctly, you forced her into a desperate situation, so she could only ask my aunt for help. Also, didn't you notice that she used this to make Doris cooperate with her? We know that those people were only faithful to Doris and not Bettany. Bettany had been with my aunt, Doris for more than ten years, and Doris would entrust her to deal with all her matters. Even if there was an internal confrontation inside the organisation, how could Bettany not have anyone helping her all these years? However, those people don't seem like they know Bettany at all. I guess that this may be the hidden force that Doris had reserved for herself. Surprisingly, Bettany was able to make my aunt reveal and use her secret weapon. I believe that Doris didn't do that because of their past relationship. If that's the case, there's only one possibility, which is Barack Hans. Hence, Doris must have used Barack's whereabouts to make sure that Doris cooperated with her."

Mango spoke in an orderly manner, and Nathaniel was deeply in shock.

He had always known that Mango was a thorough person, but her observing skills was way beyond his expectations.

Well, Mango had grown so much!

This thought made Nathaniel both gratified and sad.

He had once hoped that Mango would be strong and independent, but not to the point that she didn't need to rely on him anymore. This was because he would feel upset for her. However, Mango's improvement was impressive.

Well, she had become wiser and calmer. Thus, she would not fall into traps as she had become more intelligent because she had faced many hardships.

Nathaniel had expected this, but he was still surprised.

Then, Nathaniel placed his chin on her shoulder, as his warm breath scattered across her face, so Mango to feel a little embarrassed.

"Hey! Get up!."

"No way!"

After that, Nathaniel actually started whining at her!

On the other hand, Mango didn't know how to deal with his childish behaviour.

"Your reputation will be ruined if others see you acting this way."

"Heh! Who dares to come in when I'm with my wife?"

While he was saying this, someone knocked on the door.

Mango immediately smiled when she heard this.

"Hah! Mr. Ye, look who just came."

Nathaniel grinned cheekily when he noticed Mango's bright smile.

"Just you wait then."

After saying that, he let go of Mango and put on a serious expression.

"Who is it?"

"It's me, daddy."

Wisdom's soft voice rang out, and Mango was delighted.

If it were someone else, Nathaniel would have been annoyed. But, he endured it since it was Wisdom.

At this thought, Nathaniel shook his head helplessly after glancing at Mango. Then, he stood up and opened the door.
