Eugene had never thought that he would be defeated by Mango. She looked weak, but where did she learn the moves of his wife, Emberly?
Who gave her the drug? He must kill that b*stard some day!
As Eugene thought to himself, he fell to the floor unwillingly.
Mango wasn't thinking too much and left quickly. Without Eugene's orders, his men didn't know what to do either, and they could only watch as Mango left.
As Mango was in Angolla, she was isolated and helpless, and she couldn't involve Tristan either. Therefore, she had no choice but to call Merle.
"How far are you from Angolla now?"
On the other end, Merle had never thought that Mango would think of him again. Although he had always been prepared, when he actually received Mango's call, Merle was excited and even speechless.
"Miss Shen? Why are you in Angolla?"
"Don't ask any questions. How far are your people from Angolla right now?"
Mango's voice suddenly turned cold and instantly extinguished Merle's excitement. Only now did he realize that Mango had called him because she had no other choice.
To put it bluntly, all of them had been abandoned by Mango. Even though they were asked to temporarily retain the old Dark Night Empire, everyone understood that Mango had put all of her energy into the new Dark Night Empire after that incident.
Now that Mango had called him, Merle saw a glimmer of hope.
"We’re not far away. If you need a helicopter, we can be there in about ten minutes.”
"Then hurry up and send someone over. I don't care what weapon or strategy you're going to use, I want Angolla to be in total turmoil. But remember, don't start a war downtown."
"Alright."
Although Merle's legs were disabled, he had promoted some useful people during this period of time. There were still many experienced people in the Dark Night Empire, which was a force to be reckoned with under Merle's leadership.
Nathaniel had once given a sum of money to Merle to improve their living environment. However, Merle did not use it for food, clothing, and transportation. Instead, he bought several fighter jets that had been retired from the army, and now, they could all be put to good use.
The people of the old Dark Night Empire had been abandoned by Mango once, and now that they were being used once again, every one of them was extremely excited. They couldn't wait to use all they had to prove themselves worthy to Mango and return to their original positions and glory.
Meanwhile, Mango's wait was torturous.
She knew that she could not act impulsively now. If she went to save Nathaniel alone, she would probably be caught before she got close to the palace gates. Besides, she might not get ahold of how Nathaniel was right now.
After going through a lot, Mango was no longer that impulsive. Even though the uneasiness in her heart continued to expand, she still waited for backup to arrive.
Eugene had refused to stay and insisted on taking her with him, so Mango knew well that Nathaniel wouldn't be able to win in this battle. He would rather put himself in danger than hope for her to stay.
Initially, Mango would have been obedient. However, if she could no longer see Nathaniel again after this, or if something were to happen to Nathaniel, she would rather be by his side. Even if she had to see him with her own eyes, she didn't want to be too far away from him.
Merle's men came quickly, and the leader was Thomas.
When Mango saw him, she was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked behind him. She was relieved when she did not find Rainie.
"Why are you here?"
"I happened to have something to do with Merle, so I came here when I heard that you needed help. Madam, did something happen to Mr. Ye?"
Mango knew how close Thomas and Nathaniel were. Because of Thomas and Rainie's marriage, Nathaniel had not contacted Thomas for a long time. He was afraid that Thomas would be involved in something dangerous, which would bring changes to Rainie's life. However, Mango did not expect that Thomas still came.
"Where's Rainie?"
"She's in Ocean City. I happen to have something to do here. I was planning to return by plane tonight, but I didn't expect you to call Merle. Madam, I know what happened with Merle. It meant that you're already at the end of your rope for you to call him. You and Mr. Ye have actually come to Angolla quietly for something this big and had even left us out of it. Do you think of me and Rainie as outsiders?"
Thomas was a little angry, but his tone was still respectful. He knew clearly how much Nathaniel cherished Mango.
Mango looked at Thomas and said in a low voice, "Go back. Since Nathan doesn't want you to get involved, then don't."
"Madam! Do you want me to go back and tell Rainie that you are all alone here? Do you think that she will forgive me if she knows that I didn't help you?"
Thomas's words left Mango speechless.
Then, she suddenly thought of something.
"By the way, Denver and Anaya are here too. However, they are in the Acker family's mansion, and Laborn has some of his men watching them. They won't be able to come out for now. If you don't want to leave, then find a way to get them out of there."
Mango still didn't want Thomas to get involved.
Thomas stopped talking, but his expression displayed what he was thinking.
Mango couldn't help but sigh and say, "It's too dangerous this time. I don't know if I'll be able to come back alive. If anything happens to you, I won't be able to face Rainie."
"You won't need to. I'm a soldier. Even if this mission doesn't involve me from the start, now that I have encountered it, it is my responsibility and duty. Madam, I'm like Mr. Ye. I haven't retired yet."
After this, Mango no longer spoke.
Looking at these people who were from the Dark Night Empire, she didn't know many of them. To be frank, she didn't know many people in the Dark Night Empire, but since they were all trained by Merle, they should be capable.
"As the leader of the Dark Night Empire, I order you to follow me to rescue Nathaniel, the head of the Ye family. It's hard to tell if you will survive this. If there is anyone who has family who needs to be taken care of, you can quit now!"
