The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1335

"I thought the man didn't see us just now!"

Mango said in surprise.

Nathaniel whispered, "The number of teacups have exposed our presence. Also, the man must've also discovered the door which we have barged into if there is a second exit."

Only now did Mango remember how they entered the place.

"What should we do now?"

Mango placed her hand on her waist and paced around anxiously while asking.

Well, things could turn out pretty badly because of this. However, she wasn't afraid because it didn't matter where she was as long as Nathaniel was with her.

Then, Nathaniel gently grabbed her hand and said in a soft voice, "Don't we still have Priscilla? She's our only hope right now. Alas! I just hope that she can reach here before Laborn's men do."

While Nathaniel said this, his cellphone rang.

Nathaniel's lips curled up slightly when he saw the caller ID on the screen of his phone.

"She's here! We should be able to leave soon."

Mckenzie and Mango both let out sighs of relief when they heard this.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel picked up phone immediately.

"Priscilla, where are your men?"

"They're already at the abandoned area, but where are you guys?"

They could clearly heard the uneasiness in her voice.

Nathaniel sent their location to her and mentioned to her what had happened just now, and he also told her that Mckenzie was with them.

Upon hearing the news, Priscilla was stupefied.

"Mckenzie? Is she from the Mo family?

After all, Priscilla had stayed in Z Country for a few years, so she was quite familiar with people from the Mo family.

Nathaniel agreed by saying a soft 'yeah', so Priscilla became a little uneasy.

"Mr. Ye, are you trying to get me into trouble? I've already sent out my men! If there was no one there, I could still tell Laborn that I came here to hunt! Now, you're telling me that the Mo family is imprisoned here, and you're trying to take her away as well! You're obviously trying to tell Laborn that I'm the one who brought her away!"

Priscilla said anxiously.

Nathaniel did not expect to find Mckenzie immediately after arriving at Angolla. Thus, he felt apologetic towards Priscilla because of what had happened.

"Do you want me to send someone to stir up some trouble at the border? Then, Laborn would think that we were the ones who took her away, right?"

This was the only solution that Nathaniel could come up with.

However, Priscilla said in a low voice, "I contacted Michael and asked him to send a helicopter to bring her away. Laborn imprisoned her in this abandoned area for so many years, so he probably paid close attention to her. Anyway, he will do anything he can to search for her if she's still in the country. You know that I can't prevent him from finding her. So, you should let her go immediately if you care about her safety."

"But it takes time for the helicopter to reach here. I'm afraid we're not going to make it in time!"

Nathaniel had also thought that this problem. However, he was most concerned if their whereabouts would be exposed to Laborn by the man who visited just now. If that was the case, it was already too late for them to escape.

Priscilla pondered for a moment and whispered, "The only thing we can do now is to seek help from the Baxter Alliance. But if that's the case, we may lose some of our subordinates. Once their identity is exposed, Laborn will kill them all.! Mr. Ye, we're risking their safety in exchange for the lives of the Mo family. This is too great of a cost to bear!"

After all, Priscilla had trained this team secretly. She had brought them into Angolla using her status so that she would be prepared for any unforeseen circumstances that would happen in the future. However, she was not too willing to sacrifice their lives for the Mo family.

To her, Baxter Alliance was her benefactor and her family, but the Mo family was not.

Even though Nathaniel was loyal to the Mo family, she did not belong to their country and did not treat the Mo family with much respect.

Nathaniel understood Priscilla's concern and her thoughts, but he didn't know whether Mckenzie thought the same thing. Then, Nathaniel subconsciously took a glance at Mckenzie. Suddenly, Mckenzie said in a low voice, "She's right. This is a great cost indeed. My life is important, but I don't want other people to sacrifice their lives for me. If this doesn't work, you and Mango can leave first, and I'll stay here. As long as I'm still alive, Laborn will not dare to do anything ruthless. At most, he will just send me somewhere else. Rest assured that he won't take my life. After all, the Mo family is still very useful to him."

As soon as Mckenzie said this, Priscilla suddenly paused.

She had wondered if the Mo family would agree to her suggestion. To put it bluntly, she had said those words to see how Mckenzie would react.

If Mckenzie wanted to leave while ignoring the lives of others, she would abandon her immediately. After all, Priscilla only cared about Nathaniel, and the others had nothing to do with her. However, she was surprised by Mckenzie's words.

However, Nathaniel interrupted them and said, "No, I promised Master Mo that I would take you back. Moreover, he told me that the Baxter Alliance is working for him now."

He had said these words out loud for Priscilla to hear.

Priscilla frowned upon hearing this, but she didn't say anything else. Then, Nathaniel continued, "Priscilla, send a few of our comrades to create havoc around this abandoned area. At the same time, contact Michael to send a helicopter over to pick them up. Tell them to not confront the enemies head- on. They should get on the helicopter and leave when the time comes."

"What about Mckenzie then?"

Priscilla understood what Nathaniel meant. After all, he wanted his subordinates to leave Angolla.

However, these people were brought in to protect Nathaniel many years ago. Now they had to leave because of the Mo family, so who would be responsible for Nathaniel's safety in the future?

Nathaniel's eyes darkened slightly as he said softly, "Mckenzie, follow me. If Michael's helicopter enters the country, Laborn will think that he is here to pick you up. So if my men get on the helicopter, he won't know that you chose to remain here."

"Mr. Ye, this is too risky!"

Priscilla knew that his team would be able to leave safely as long as Michael's helicopter arrived. However, Micheal had sent a fighter aircraft, so this could put them at a disadvantage. Thus, it seemed that Nathaniel was taking a huge risk by doing this.

Despite that, Nathaniel whispered, "Look, time is running out. Just do as I say."

"Mr. Ye, bring her along with you, alright? You all can leave with my men."

Priscilla finally compromised.
