The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1338

This was a warning from Nathaniel!

Nathaniel rarely spoke to her like this. Thus, she couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved as he was treating her this way because of Mango.

"Mr. Ye, I've done so much for the Baxter Alliance all these years, and most importantly for your sake. Are you trying to warn me because of Mango?"

Upon hearing this, Nathaniel suddenly felt sorry for her, and he couldn't bear to upset her any further.

"Priscilla, she's my wife. I won't allow anyone to hurt her. Do you think I'm still worthy enough to be a man if I can't even protect my wife?"

"But..."

"Well, that's enough. Mango is a wonderful woman. I believe you'll like her once you meet her in person."

After saying that, Nathaniel ended the phone call directly.

Priscilla's eyes darkened when she heard a beeping sound coming from the other end of the line.

After all, Nathaniel rarely cared about a person so much.

She looked at the stack of documents in her hand that were all about Mango.

Mango used to be an ordinary and somewhat average woman that no one would like. However, how on earth did she catch Nathaniel's attention? Didn't she use some tricks to climb onto his bed and become his wife?

Priscilla was truly annoyed. Although the information she found said that Mango had suffered so much in the past few years, and that she had almost died in the fire, so what?

If she had known her place and hadn't thought about marrying Nathaniel, would such a thing have happened? In the end, it was all Mango's fault, and why was Nathaniel so protective of her?

Who did she think she was?

At this thought, Priscilla crumpled the documents, and there was a hint of determination in her eyes.

After putting down the phone, Nathaniel looked at the snow storm outside and felt extremely troubled.

His feelings for Priscilla were totally different from what she thought.

Back then, Priscilla was working with him on the battlefield, and they had been through ups and downs. To be honest, Nathaniel had never thought of her as a woman during that time.

She was like a comrade to him, and she could even risk her life for her. However, Nathaniel was once captured in a mission. In order to save him, Priscilla disregarded the rules and invaded the enemy's territory alone. In the end, she fought her way out of the hands of over thirty terrorists and rescued Nathaniel. However, she was shot and left behind by the enemy.

In fact, he never knew how much he had suffered. Anyway, Priscilla was covered in blood by the time he found her. Although she wasn't harassed by any men, they had shot her in the abdomen. Hence, the doctor said that she had lost the ability to give birth.

Well, Nathaniel owed her his life!

He still remembered how Priscilla said to him with a smile back then, "It's alright, Mr. Ye. You won't abandon me, right? Why don't you marry me?"

At that time, Nathaniel had wanted to marry her. After all, it was not easy for a woman to find a man who would accept her for being infertile. Although he didn't want to see her having relationship troubles because of them, he remained silent and didn't give her an answer. However, everyone had assumed that they had gotten together.

Despite not getting a direct answer from him, Priscilla was still happy, and she didn't mind being infertile. On the other hand, Nathaniel could feel her excitement, but he felt somewhat depressed and pressured.

In fact, he didn't want to marry her because he knew that it was definitely not love. After all, he had always treated her like a sibling and a comrade.

Well, Nathaniel had always been longing for love, and he also hoped to find an ideal partner of his own. Despite that, he didn't want to be together with her, but he knew that Pricailla needed to undergo treatment.

At that time, Priscilla's emotions were very unstable. He had wanted her to cooperate with the doctor and undergo treatment, so he had said nothing about the rumours that had spread.

Upon knowing this, Priscilla felt blessed. Naturally, her mental and physical state had improved in no time.

Nathaniel still remembered the day when she recovered from her injury. At that time, Priscilla was wearing a white wedding gown. That was the time he realised she was actually a real woman, a woman who wanted to marry him and spend the rest of her life with him.

However, Nathaniel didn't want to do so. He knew that he was a playboy, but he still told her the truth.

He said, "Priscilla, I'm sorry. I will treat you as my sister all my life, and I will always have your back. The Ye Family is your home. I promise to protect you, but I can't marry you."

After hearing that, Priscilla felt as if her whole world had been torn apart.

She looked at Nathaniel with a stunned expression. Then, tears started forming in her eyes, so Nathaniel felt bad as well.

After that, she had burst into tears.

That was the first time Nathaniel saw her cry. Only then did he realised that Priscilla was not as strong and tough as he imagined.

"Sorry, Priscilla, I understand that I might sound a bit ruthless here, but everyone in the world has the right to find their own love. I am not in love with you, but I do plan on finding my own true love in the future. Well, we're just not meant to be. I once wondered if I should marry you because of my responsibility, but this would be unfair to you."

"Mr. Ye, I don't care. I love you and I want to be with you!"

Priscilla cried out in agony. After all, she had waited so many days because she wanted to have a wedding that everyone would envy. Who knew that Nathaniel would be the one who suggested that they would break up?

No! She couldn't accept this!
