"Who is it?"
Priscilla was surprised and placed her hand gently on her waist.
This was her palace, and only her subordinates were allowed inside. How could someone sneak into her secretly without her noticing?
At this thought, Priscilla felt terrified.
Then, she stared at the corner of the room. The voice had resounded from the window, which meant that the intruder was either hiding under the window or behind it.
Right now, Priscilla was ready to act at any time.
At this moment, Mango slowly walked out from behind the curtain.
Pricilla was surprised, and she didn't know what to feel when she saw Mango.
Why was Mango here?
No, when did she get here?
If Mango was already here when Nathaniel had arrived at her palace, did that mean that she had witnessed how embarrassing Priscilla was?
At this thought, Priscilla was displeased.
She really didn't like Mango!
On the other hand, Mango noticed her anger, but she didn't care about it. Instead, she went straight to Priscills's side and poured herself a cup of wine. Then, she put it under his nose and sniffed it.
"Well, this is pretty good wine. How could you be this selfish to keep it for yourself?"
"Mango, why are you here? This isn't something a noble young lady should do, right?"
Priscilla said coldly, and her aura was frightening. Despite that, Mango acted as if nothing had happened. Then, she took a sip of the wine and felt her body tingling with warmth.
Right now, Angolla's weather was too cold. She happened to pass by because Mckenzie was asleep, and she had to go back. However, she saw Nathaniel walking toward Priscilla, so she couldn't help following him. In fact, she had witnessed everything that happened just now.
Initially, Mango didn't plan to show herself. However, she couldn't bear to see Priscilla in such pain and distress. Most importantly, she overheard the conversation between Maya and Priscilla. Hence, she found out that Priscilla decided to give up their plan and instead sent someone to protect her. Upon hearing this, she knew that Priscilla wasn't a bad person after all.
However, when she saw how Priscilla was glaring at her fiercely, she suddenly felt guilty as if she had done something wrong.
"Calm down. I'm not a bad person. Besides, I'm the leader of Dark Night Empire. Don't you know that, Your Highness?"
"I always thought you had the position because of your relationship with Mr. Ye!"
Priscilla did not hide the disdain and displeasure on her face as she said this.
On the other hand, Mango did not care much. She was delighted that Priscilla was finally willing to let go of her feelings and stop coveting her husband. It was truly something worth celebrating.
She would not want to be enemies with Priscilla as long as the latter didn't try to seduce her husband.
"Hah! How could you say this? Do you think of me as a fool?
"I'm glad that you know that then."
Priscilla could also tell that Mango wasn't here to fight. However, she couldn't get rid of her frustration.
Why did this woman deserve all the love from Nathaniel?
It would be alright if she had given up on her feelings for Nathaniel, but she refused to allow Mango to make fun of her.
"Mango, get up and fight with me."
"Why should I do that? I am Nathaniel's wife, so I'm your sister- in- law. Aren't you afraid that Nathaniel will punish you when he finds out about this?"
Mango retorted, but it only caused Priscilla to tremble out of anger.
"Urgh! I regret it. I don't need to wait till tomorrow because I'm going to kill you now. Even if Mr. Ye resents me from now on, I need to get my revenge anyhow."
After speaking, she walked towards Mango.
Mango knew that Priscilla was unwilling to give up, so she quickly dodged and avoided the attack. In fact, she wanted to make sure that her skills had not deteriorated.
She had been in poor health these days. Although she always had Nathaniel by her side, she knew that she had to rely on herself. Moreover, she did not want to be a burden to Nathaniel. After all, she knew that the real danger awaited her tomorrow after Mckenzie had life.
Hence, it was a good time for her to practice her defensive skills on Priscilla.
At the thought of this, Mango put down her cup and fought with Priscilla.
Meanwhile, Priscilla was amazed by her skills. Most importantly, why did Mango's attacks look so familiar, just like Nathaniel's?
She suddenly understood something, and she felt even depressed.
She had only saved Nathaniel's life, and he had repaid her by giving her a few pointers. However, she didn't expect him to teach Mango all of his skills.
Suddenly, she was filled with jealousy once again.
"D*mn it, Mr. Ye actually taught you personally."
"He is my husband, so he taught me a lot more than this."
Mango rarely fought to her heart's content. Under normal circumstances, her body would not allow her to do so. However, she wanted to do it as she liked now.
Moreover, Nathaniel trusted Priscilla. Therefore, she had to see for herself whether Priscilla was worthy of his trust.
In fact, she had never intended to be Priscilla's enemy since the beginning.
On the other hand, Priscilla was so agitated that she attacked Mango violently.
"Mango, are you showing off?"
"Ah, I get you've realised my intentions. Sorry about that!"
Although Mango knew that she was acting like a brat, Priscilla did not disappoint her either. After hearing what she had said, Priscilla had given her a vicious punch on the shoulder.
Once again, the excruciating pain Mango was feeling immediately lit up her burning spirit.
If she let Priscilla off right now because the latter had said a few words, she could be going too easy on her! Furthermore, she could never forget how this woman had coveted her husband!"
"Priscilla Fang, show me what you've got. Let me see the martial skills that you are so proud of!"
"If I win, will you give Mr. Ye to me?"
"In your dreams! Besides, Nathan just staked his claim so clearly. Are you deaf?"
Mango's words were clear and direct, as if she was telling Priscilla that she knew everything that happened between them just now.
After hearing this, Priscilla felt a little embarrassed.
