The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1362

"Let's move!"

Once Nathaniel had given the command, Priscilla and Mango immediately got ready to carry out the operation.

"I have to go out first. According to the rules, I need to go to the headquarters first. From now on, I may not be able to take care of you. So both of you should take care of yourselves."

Priscilla was a little uneasy as she said this. She glanced at both Nathaniel and Mango with mixed emotions on her face. However, anyone could tell that she was worried about them.

On the other hand, Mango felt comforted and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I still have to stay alive so that I can chase away the other women that are trying to steal my husband away!"

The corner of the Priscilla's mouth twitched when she heard this.

Urgh! Mango was so annoying!

When Mango saw how speechless Priscilla was, she immediately felt better. Alright, she had to admit that she had become a lot more naughty.

After all, she wanted to lighten the atmosphere before all of them headed off for such a serious mission.

Then, Mango patted Priscilla's shoulder and whispered, "You should be careful too. I'm afraid Laborn and Bernard are paying more attention to you because of what happened to Henry. Even if they didn't manage to discover anything, they probably still are watching your every move. Therefore, no matter what happens, don't expose yourself. Trust Nathan and me, alright? We'll be fine."

"But..."

"No 'buts'. Priscilla, Nathan pretty much thinks of you as his sister now, so I think of you as my friend too. I hope that this won't be the last time we meet. Also, I'm waiting for you to send me gifts during your wedding anniversary!"

Priscilla had felt touched previously, but all her emotions disappeared after hearing what Mango had said.

Urgh! This woman...

"Got it, I'll be careful. Well then, Mr. Ye and Mrs. Ye, I'll be leaving first."

Priscilla was pressed for time and couldn't stay here for too long, so she had to leave quickly.

After that, Nathaniel looked at Mango and said in a doting tone, "How did you become good friends with her this quickly? Aren't you jealous?"

"Hehl Men are useless! All I need are my friends!"

Mango flipped her hair shamelessly as she said these words. However, Nathaniel immediately pulled her into his arms and gave her a deep kiss.

"Did you just say that men are useless? Hmm?"

Nathaniel purposely dragged the last words as he asked this question, so Mango was immediately embarrassed.

"Alright, I get it. My husband is the best!"

Mango immediately begged for mercy when she heard this.

Urgh! Nathaniel was obviously acting a little out of line here. He was someone who was destined to do such great things, so how could he do something so intimate in public?

On the other hand, Nathaniel smiled as he looked at Mango's nervous expression. Then, he said gently, "Well, I guess I'll let you off for now."

"Yes, thank you for being so merciful, my dear husband."

Mango quickly jumped out of his arms after saying this.

After that, the both of them started to figure out which route they should take.

Well, they could only use the secret passage right now. Not only did Priscilla know about the secret tunnel that led to Prisca's palace, but she had also told Nathaniel and Mango all the secret passageways that she knew.

Hence, Mango and Nathaniel could enter different palaces through the various secret passageways.

"Hmm, I think Bernard will be going to the party. So, I think we should take this time to go to his palace to see whether we can find anything."

Mango quickly voiced her thoughts.

"I think so too."

Nathaniel replied with a solemn gaze.

"After all, we can't punish Bernard here, and we have to bring him back. Well, he committed these crimes back there, so we have to bring him back so that we can answer to our family. Right now, we need to find some evidence."

"That's right!"

Then, they immediately changed into their gear and set out to carry out this mission.

They were trying to look for evidence, so things would get more complicated if they brought along too many people with them. Hence, Mango and Nathaniel decided to carry out this mission themselves.

After that, Nathaniel followed the map that Priscilla had given them and brought Mango to Bernard's palace. Well, to be more accurate, they had arrived at Prestin's palace.

Before leaving the underground tunnel, both of them heard Prestin's voice.

"Hey! Where is Bernard?"

"Your Highness, Bernard went to meet the king before this."

Prestin's face hardened when he heard what the guard had said.

"D*mn it!"

He thought that he had found an advisor that he could rely on, so he had brought Bernard back to Angolla. However, he didn't expect this to be a trap! After all, Bernard had the same intentions as him.

"Ha!"

Bernard was just an illegitimate child, yet he had his eyes on the throne. What a joke!

At this thought, Prestin played around with the cane next to him and asked coldly, "Are all our men in place?"

"Yes, Alfie has already taken action. He has ordered his granddaughter to dress up gorgeously and asked the main to prepare some incense. Then, his granddaughter will approach Tristan and lead him to her room. After that, Alfie will bring his men over that so that they can catch them in the act. If Tristan has been caught in public, he will probably agree to marry Alfie's granddaughter. After all, Tristan may be the newly appointed heir to a rich family, but the Acker family is not part of the most powerful families in this country. On the other hand, the Perez family is one of the four richest families here. Alas! Tristan is such a lucky man because he could marry one of the daughters of the Perez family!"

Mango and Nathaniel were slightly stunned when they heard what the guard had said.

Well, it seemed that a lot of people wanted to win Tristan over to their side.

However, Prestin snorted coldly and said, "Heh! He's a mere doctor, so how can he be part of the upper- class society? Besides, people are only flocking to him now just because he's a little rich! Go and get a woman to seduce Tristan immediately. We can't allow him to fall into someone else's hands!"

The guard was a little confused when he heard this.

"But Alfie has arranged it, hasn't he?"

"Well, we should always use our own people instead, right? Besides, that idiot is probably helping me because he thinks that I'll be the next king. If Lebanon makes a move, Alfie might jump over to his side immediately, so we should be more cautious and use one of our people instead.'
