The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1375

"She's here to save you. We were lucky to have her just now, or else, our people would have been hurt by infrared rays."

Well, Mango indeed still hated Isla, but she didn't feel like killing Isla anymore.

On the other hand, Isla didn't speak, and she looked at Nathaniel with some warmth in her eyes. Well, Nathaniel had seen this kind of warmth before when he was a child. However, as time went by, he felt overwhelmed when he saw this gaze.

Then, Nathaniel turned his head to the side and whispered, "You've closed the infrared system here, so Bernard will find out that something happened here quickly. Also, he locked me up secretly, and he doesn't want Laborn to know about it, so he may come by himself. Although we don't have enough people now, I think we can still capture him while we catch him off guard."

"What? Do you want to use yourself as bait?"

Mango immediately understood what Nathaniel was trying to say.

"That's right."

Nathaniel answered immediately and did not hide

anything.

"We must catch Bernard, and this is an excellent opportunity to do so. After capturing Bernard, we can bring him back to out country. On the other hand, Bernard disliked Laborn because the latter hurt him before. Thus, we can make use of the civil war between Atlas and Laborn."

This was Nathaniel's idea.

Mango frowned slightly when she heard this.

"Well, Atlas and Laborn have worked together with each other for so many years, so we can't fool any of them easily. Thus, I don't think that our plan can succeed."

"What if I deliver this news personally then?"

Isla suddenly said.

Nathaniel and Mango were stunned after hearing her words.

"Are you planning to tell them about this yourself?" "Yes, I'm on Laborn and Atlas's side. They know the current situation I'm in, so they think that I won't side with you. After all, they think that I will die if I do so, so I have no choice but to rely on them if i want to live. If I look for Atlas and tell him that I managed to escape from Laborn's clutches, maybe Atlas will believe me. However, if Bernard is still alive, I don't think Atlas will offend Laborn immediately. After all, Bernard is his only son, so he will definitely save him first."

Isla said as she analysed the situation carefully.

After Mango and Nathaniel came over, they had blocked the signal. After all, they wanted to know whether Maverick was Atlas's son, but they had not received the report. Thus, they couldn't help but frown when they heard what Isla had said.

"Is Maverick really not Atlas's son?"

"No, he is the child born after Madeline and Atlas' guards had sex. At that time, Atlas didn't want Madeline to give birth, but he needed something that he could threaten Madeline with. Hence, he knocked Madeline out and got his guard to make love to her, and so, Maverick was born. He thought that Madeline would tell him about the entrance to the mine because they had a child. However, he didn't expect her to prioritise her clan over her child, so she was furious. Thus, when Madeline escaped to the Ye family, Atlas had wanted to kill Maverick. However, he felt that it would be such a waste, so he decided to let Maverick live and test the vermin on him. He reported this incident to Laborn before, and I've also seen the actual report."

Isla told Nathaniel and Mango what she knew honestly.

On the other hand, Nathaniel was enraged when he heard this.

Urgh! Atlas deserved to die!

However, Isla was right. If Bernard didn't die, Atlas would probably turn against Laborn. But it was too late to ask for instructions from the higher- ups now.

After all, he was on a critical mission in a foreign country, so he had to make some of the important decisions himself.

Besides, Bernard had committed heinous crimes, so it was not wrong to punish him on the spot.

At this thought, Nathaniel nodded.

"Let's do it this way then. Mango, you have to take care of yourself later."

"All right."

After Mango and Nathaniel had discussed the strategy they would use, they immediately carried out the mission.

On the other hand, Bernard had gotten the news, just like they had expected.

"Mr. Gaylord, the infrared system in the northern suburbs has been shut down."

Bernard's eyes narrowed suddenly when he heard what his subordinate had said.

"What? Do you know whose people they are?" "They don't seem to be from our palace. After all, we have been watching the king's people, but they had not done anything. The people from other palaces also haven't made any movements. Prince Lebanon and Prince Prestin are both at the state banquet. Furthermore, Princess Prissy and Tristan are in the room, and they won't come out for a while. Also, we've also been watching Princess Prisca, but she hasn't done anything."

After hearing what his subordinate had said, Bernard immediately could guess that Mango was the one who had shut down the infrared systems.

"Hah! I've underestimated you, Mango Fang! I didn't know that she would have other people helping her other than Lebanon. Alright, this is a perfect opportunity to see who's supporting her! Furthermore, we can get rid of the people backing her up too!"

Bernard said confidently.

However, his guard was a little worried.

"Mr. Gaylord, I'm worried that the king will be upset if we leave the banquet suddenly like this."

"Tell the king that my father is here with some news, so I have to meet him right now. Anyway, he still needs my father's financial resources so that he can support the military research of the country."

"Yes, sir!"

The guards quickly left to carry out Bernard's orders after that.

Then, Bernard quietly emptied the glass and left without anyone noticing.
