The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1393

Nathaniel pulled out a dagger almost at the same time Mango spoke and stabbed in the direction of Mango's leg.

As he felt the blade piercing into the skin, Nathaniel's face suddenly became serious.

He wanted to grab the person hiding in the water, but the person escaped like a slippery loach. Then, there was blood in the water, glaring back at them.

The moment Mango obtained her freedom, she grabbed her clothes and wrapped them around herself.

Seeing that she was fully dressed, Nathaniel called Tristan.

By the time Tristan's men arrived, the blood in the water had already disappeared. However, Tristan did not doubt Nathaniel and Mango's words at all.

"Search the area! How dare they sneak into the Acker family's territory. What's security doing?"

Tristan's face darkened.

If Nathaniel hadn't been by Mango's side and she had taken a bath on her own, who knew what would've happened?

"Teagan, can you ask my father whether the bottom of the hot spring is connected to the outside?"

The hot spring was a natural underground hot spring, and the mouth of it was here, but it had been extended to the outside. In the past, Tristan had thought that no one would dare to do anything to the Acker family and that there should be precautions here, so he didn't pay much attention to it. If that person hadn't come in through the front gate, then it was very likely that he came in through the river outside.

Teagan quickly went to call Arlo.

If Tristan's guess was right, it would be dangerous here.

Nathaniel couldn't wait for Arlo's reply and said in a low voice, "I'll go down there and take a look."

"Nathan, we don't know how deep it is. You'd better wait for Mr. Acker."

Mango was very worried.

The hand just now was cold and had no temperature. When she was caught, it had felt like she was caught by a ghost. Although she didn't believe in them, she was still a little scared at that moment.

Now when she heard that Nathaniel was going to go down, she couldn't help but shake her head.

Nathaniel touched her face and said softly, "I'll be fine. Don't worry. You should dry your hair. Don't catch a cold. Wait for me here."

"But..."

"Trust me."

Nathaniel's eyes were so gentle and firm, and it made Mango speechless for a moment.

"Be careful. I won't leave until you come back."

This was equivalent to using her own body to threaten Nathaniel.

Nathaniel smiled dotingly at Mango's childish movements and tone.

"Alright."

After saying that, he looked at Tristan and found that he was looking at him too, which made him stop smiling.

"I need diving equipment."

"We have it."

Then, Tristan sent someone to fetch it.

"How about I go?"

Tristan could tell that Nathaniel was really good to Mango, and no one else could get intervene in their relationship. Therefore, even if he felt uncomfortable because Priscilla liked Nathaniel, he had no choice but to think for Mango at this

moment.

"It's alright. I'll go and have a look. Please take care of the Mango for me."

"Alright."

Soon, Nathaniel put on the diving equipment and jumped down.

Mango looked at the surface of the water with a worried frown.

Her hair was wet, and thinking of Nathaniel's words, Tristan said in a low voice, "Get me a hairdryer."

Immediately, someone handed Tristan a hairdryer.

Then, he turned on the hairdryer and gently dried Mango's hair. Mango was startled and said with embarrassment, "Tristan, I'll do it myself."

"Let me do it. I know you're worried about him, but although the water is very deep, it's nothing for Nathaniel. You should believe in him. If you don't dry your hair now, you'll catch a cold later and he's going to blame me. I haven't slept since last night, you know. Can you just humor your brother?"

Hearing Tristan's words, Mango felt a little embarrassed.

"Tristan, I'm sorry that you didn't have a good rest because of the surgery." "Silly girl, how is it your fault?" The corner of Tristan's mouth was slightly raised and his movements were also very gentle.

Meanwhile, as soon as Priscilla woke up, she heard that something had happened in the hot spring, so she immediately got Maya to change her clothes and hurried over. When she saw that Tristan was drying Mango's hair gently, she couldn't help but frown.

"What are you guys doing?"

Priscilla deliberately raised her voice.

Even if Tristan was Mango's older brother, there were still many people present. Besides, Mango was no longer a child. Was it really appropriate to let Tristan blow her hair like this?

And what would Nathaniel think?

As Priscilla thought about this, she walked straight over to them and said to Tristan, "Give me the hairdryer. You're a man and look how sloppy you are. Don't hurt my sister-in-law."

She said those words boldly and confidently, but it made Tristan frown slightly.

"Sister-in-law?"

"Yeah, she is Nathaniel's wife, and he is my superior. Of course she's my sister-in-law."

Priscilla took advantage of Tristan's brief moment of shock to snatch the hairdryer from him.

Although she didn't want to help Mango, she would still do it as Mango was Nathaniel's wife.

Tristan did not object to this.

Besides, he really didn't know how to blow-dry her hair.
