The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1295

On the other hand, Mango stayed outside for a while. She left eventually after making sure that everything was alright.

She couldn't tell how Maverick felt after he head learnt that Lilian had tried to harm herself. However, if Nathaniel was in his shoes, he would probably be very sad. However, there was nothing she could do because she couldn't meddle in other people's relationships.

Soon, Mango returned to the Longford County.

Meanwhile, Magnolia was busy investigating Augustus's identity. When Bettany noticed Mango's return, she quickly brought Mango aside and whispered, "Mr. Ye contacted me."

"What?"

Mango was a little surprised to hear this.

Why did Nathaniel contact Bettany but not her instead?

As if knowing what Mango was thinking, Bettany hurriedly explained, "Mr Yes signal has been blocked, so he can't make a phone call. Thus, he used the special contact method of Longford County to reach me."

"Did he contact you through the vermin?"

This was the only unique contact method Mango could think of.

Bettany nodded in agreement after hearing this.

"Mr. Ye is a genius! He thought of contacting me through the vermin. Anyway, he told me that they are doing alright and asked us not to worry. Also, he wants us to protect the entrance of Longford County and wait for his news."

Meanwhile, Bettany looked very excited. After all, she had news about Nathaniel. Thus, she felt secure as long as Nathaniel was leading the team. However, Mango was not as optimistic as her.

"Wait, Nathan doesn't know how to use the vermin."

After saying those words, Mango immediately walked away and left Bettany standing there in a daze.

What? Did Nathaniel not know how to use vermin?

How could that be?

"Look, Madam, I'm not lying. Mr. Ye did contact me. I kept the vermin with me to ease the communication."

Bettany hurriedly explained. Just then, Mango suddenly thought of someone else.

Angela Barnes!

Her mother was a descendant of Longford County. Therefore, it made sense for her to know how to use the vermin. Although the chief of Zelle Village said that Angela had never been exposed to these things since she was a child, Mango didn't believe it.

Well, if Angela was the one who had Nathaniel's identity to send this message, Mango would feel worried instead of relieved.

After all, Angela's identity was still unclear. However, she had indeed used Rita to find the whereabouts of Morgan. On the other hand, that didn't mean that she was indeed one of Augustus' me.

Well, Lilian was the same.

She was the one who had released Augustus!

However, they didn't expect her to dislike Augustus so much.

When Mango thought about this, she could feel a headache coming. After all, there were too many issues that she couldn't figure out. Hence, she was overwhelmed and exhausted by the all things that had happened.

Suddenly, Wisdom appeared out of nowhere. He carried a bowl of soup and whispered, "Mommy, have something to eat. The kitchen made it for you."

"Thank you, Wisdom."

Mango was delighted by Wisdom's sensible gesture, and she couldn't help but think of Zion.

How would things have turned out if Zion was right here?

Meanwhile, Wisdom watched Mango finish the soup before leaving.

On the other hand, Mango missed Zion.

Thus, she took out her phone and video-called Zion.

When the call was connected, Mango saw Zion taking his medicine. Hence, she smiled when she saw that he was frowning.

"Well, I didn't know that my son would have a hard time taking his pills every day!"

After hearing this, Zion quickly threw the tablet into his mouth and drank a mouthful of water. However, he couldn't take the bitter taste, and he quickly gobbled down some oranges before saying in a low voice, "Mommy, I have to eat these tablets three times a day! Urgh! I think I'll get sick because of these pills."

"Hey, those pills are good for your body, alright? How are you? Do you feel better?"

Mango felt much better when she saw her son.

Zion smiled and answered, "I'm a lot better now!

Mummy, how's it going? Any progress?"

Then, Mango shook her head and said, "Nope, but we're doing alright. Don't worry about us. Take good care of yourself, and come back to me soon. I miss you a lot!"

"I miss you too, mom."

Zion blushed a little after he finished speaking, so Mango felt that he looked adorable right now!

After all, Mango loved Zion's adorable face so much that she wanted to pinch his chubby cheeks through the screen.

"My son is so handsome. Come on, give me a kiss."

Zion's face immediately flushed red with embarrassment when he saw Mango giving him a kiss from the other side of the screen.

"Mommy, is there anything I can help with?"

Zion couldn't stand his mom's sudden enthusiasm.

However, Mango shook her head and said, "No, I just want you to take a good care of yourself."

At this moment, Mango was extremely glad that Zion hadn't followed them. Otherwise, she couldn't imagine what would have happened to him. She also didn't know how Rita was doing, and all she could do was wait patiently.

After that, they chatted for a while longer. Then, Zion suggested playing a game, but Mango rejected his suggestion.

"Mommy, are you doing this because Mr. Ye forbade you from playing games? Oh, right, where's Mr. Ye? Why didn't I see him with you?"

Suddenly, Zion realised that Nathaniel wasn't there.

Shouldn't Nathaniel be by Mango's side during this hour?
