The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1316

"Take good care of yourself. How could you think about travelling when you've only rested for a few days? Do you think your body can take it?"

Mango quickly refused and used Deborah's health as an excuse.

However, Deborah said with a smile, "Nah, I'm fine! I'm healthy."

"That won't do either."

Suddenly, Deborah realized something was going on because Mango was opposing her idea strongly.

"What's wrong? If I go over now, will I only trouble you guys?"

"Why are you asking since you know the answer? Stay put in Ocean City and recuperate. There will be plenty of opportunities to come over later, so you shouldn't be reckless now."

Mango was afraid that Deborah would ask other questions, so she had no choice but to say so.

"Fine! I'll listen to you, okay?"

Deborah couldn't stand Mango's nagging, so she could only give in.

Meanwhile, Walter then came in with a bowl of stew. What he saw them chatting happily, he couldn't help but smile and say, "When will you come back Mango? You should bring some good food for Deborah!"

"Got it."

On the other hand, Mango was very pleased with how Walter was doing. She had thought that Carter's death would dishearten him, but fortunately, Deborah was by his side.

"Walter, could I have a moment with you?"

Mango then winked at Walter as she said this.

Walter looked at Deborah as she laughed and said, "Haha! Go ahead. Would I worry that something's going on between the two of you? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Ahem."

Mango felt a little awkward after hearing this.

Then, Walter took the phone with a smile and walked out of the room.

After leaving Deborah's line of sight, Walter's smile vanished. He looked at Mango and asked in a low voice, "Did something happen?"

"Haha! What can happen to me here? Don't think too much."

Mango's heart skipped a beat, but she said these words and hid her true emotions.

However, Walter was her cousin!

He had stayed by Mango's side for so long, so he knew her well.

Hence, he whispered, "You wouldn't call us if nothing happened. So tell me about it!"

Mango was a little depressed after hearing this.

After all, the two people who understood her the most were Nathaniel and Walter.

"Walter, we've captured Augustus, but he escaped after that. Also, there's something suspicious about his identity."

Mango quickly told Walter about what had happened recently.

Bernard seemed to have something to do with Carter's death, but no one knew if Atlas was the mastermind behind it. However, Walter had the right to know the truth. Furthermore, he would only keep Deborah away from trouble once he knew about these events.

Walter frowned after hearing what Mango had said.

He didn't know that things would be so complicated, and he instantly understood Mango's worries.

"Are you worried that Deborah will be in danger if she goes over? Also, you're afraid that Atlas will harm her, right?" "Yes. So, Walter, please take good care of Deborah. I know that you have a blood feud with Bernard and Atlas, but let me take care of this for you, alright? Deborah just had a miscarriage, and she hasn't fully recovered. Hence, who will take care of her if you come here? Besides, Bernard has had his eyes on the Grey family's shipping routes for a long time. What if something happens to the Grey family when you leave? I'm telling you these things not because I want you here immediately, but I want you to make preparations in advance. After all, there are a lot of people in Ocean City who need your protection. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Mango said quickly as he was afraid that Walter would run over to her like he usually did.

If Walter was not married, he would have dropped everything and run over, but he couldn't do that now.

After all, Mango was right. Right now, there were too many people he needed to protect. Once he left, there would be no one left to guard Ocean City.

"Have you talked to Terrance about this?"

"Not yet. I plan to tell him about it once I'm done with this call."

That was Mango's plan.

However, Walter whispered, "I'll tell grandpa and Terrance instead. Don't make too many phone calls. You never know if anyone is listening to your calls. After this call, dispose of your phone and get a new one. Change your number as well, and don't let anyone else know about it except among yourselves. This is a serious incident, and we have to be careful."

Walter was giving her this advice based on his own experience.

On the other hand, Mango was slightly stunned when she heard that, but she still nodded her head.

"Alright."

"In addition, don't tell anyone about your plans in the future, including me. After all, I'm relieved because you have Nathaniel by your side. He would give up anything, including his own life, to ensure your safety, so you can trust him completely."

Walter felt a slight bitterness in his heart as he said this. Right now, he had let go of his feelings for Mango. However, since Mango was still someone important to him, he still felt miserable when he thought about leaving her completely to Nathaniel.

"Don't worry about Ocean City. Everything will be fine because Terrance, grandpa and I are all here. If we can't hold the ground on our own, I can still ask for assistance from Master Mo, who is in Santell Capital. So, you don't need to worry about anything. I will look after everyone important to you, and I will also send word to Thomas about this. Take care of yourself, Mango. We will wait for your return."

Wow! Walter was more mature than before. Mango didn't know whether he had changed because of marriage or Deborah, but she was still pleased with how he handled the situation. She had called Walter at first to discuss this, but before she had needed to explain things, Walter had taken care of everything.

After all, people around her were becoming stronger. They were constantly improving themselves for the people around them and for the people they loved.
