The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1413

"Chief, you..."

"Hurry up and pour me a glass of water. I'm choking."

Nathaniel said as soon as Bettany came in, letting out a burp while doing so.

Even though Bettany had thought of many possibilities, she did not expect such a result. Thus, she suddenly did not know how to react and quickly poured Nathaniel a cup of water.

After Nathaniel gulped down the water, he felt much better.

Bettany knew Nathaniel's eating etiquette, so she wondered how did he choke. Perhaps he had choked because he had eaten the food carefully as Mango was the one who had bought it for him.

At this thought, she looked at Nathaniel's satisfied expression. Suddenly, she felt that it would be better to wait before telling Nathaniel that Mango had been attacked. After all, Nathaniel was rarely in such a good mood, so she didn't want to ruin it.

"Do you have anything else to tell me?"

When Nathaniel looked up and saw Bettany still standing there, he could not help but frown.

"Chief, don't you want to lie down? You shouldn't sit for long because of your injury."

Bettany couldn't help but remind Nathaniel.

After hearing that, Nathaniel looked at the unfinished meatballs and stir-fried pork belly in his hands before giving in eventually.

He put the food on the table next to him and whispered, "Warm it up for me in the evening. I want to finish the food that my wife bought for me."

"All right."

Bettany's mouth twitched as she answered, but she quickly lowered her head.

After all, Mango was injured, so how could she buy him food herself? Hence, she must have sent the bodyguards to do this, but Nathaniel treasured it so. Alas! Mango's cold attitude towards Nathaniel must have taken a toll on him.

In fact, he could cheer up easily as long as Mango showed him a little bit of warmth.

At this thought, Bettany shook her head and carried Nathaniel onto the bed.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel was not in a hurry to rest as he had just eaten greasy food. After all, what Nathaniel wanted to do the most was to go over and chat with Mango. However, when he thought of Mango's rejection and her look of exhaustion, he decided to give up on this idea.

"Leave me. I'll lie down for a while."

"All right."

Bettany quickly walked out as she was afraid she would involuntarily tell Nathaniel about Mango if she stayed any longer.

On the other hand, Nathaniel took out his phone and was browsing through some company matters when he saw a news video. When he took a second look at the car, he felt it was a bit familiar.

Thus, he quickly paused the video and then zoomed in to look at the license plate number.

Yes, it was his car!

What did the news say?

Mrs. Ye was attacked at the entrance of the Imperial House?!

How could no one tell him that such a big thing had happened? Were they all ignoring him?

Nathaniel's heart suddenly tightened when he thought about this.

Suddenly, he recalled the tired look on Mango's face when she had just returned. He thought that she was exhausted because of her wound at first, but he didn't expect it to be because of an assault.

How could she be so laid back? Why didn't she mention this attack?

Nathaniel was so angry that his heart ached.

Urgh! What did she take him for?

Was he a stranger to her?

At this thought, Nathaniel felt that the infuriation in his heart was almost driving him crazy!

"Bettany!"

Nathaniel growled, and Bettany rushed in.

"What's wrong, chief?"

"Take me to my wife's room."

Nathaniel could let Mango mess around as she pleased, and he could also deal with Mango's anger and her ignoring him. However, she had gone too far by not telling him about the assault.

Meanwhile, Bettany glanced at the news on Nathaniel's phone and knew that she couldn't hide it anymore.

She quickly moved Nathaniel back to the wheelchair and pushed him to Mango's room.

Then, Bettany was about to knock on the door when Nathaniel immediately opened the door with a spare key.

"Mango, are you out of your mind? Why didn't you tell me about the attack?"

Nathaniel asked angrily.

On the other hand, Mango was applying ice packs to her burning ears. When she saw Nathaniel coming in furiously, she didn't react and said calmly, "You did not discuss anything with me when you wanted to risk your life. Hah! Did you finally remember that we are a couple? Why didn't you think of me as your wife when you were acting all heroically? After all, I have the right to know what you wanted to do, right?"

Nathaniel couldn't even say a word after hearing this.

He finally understood what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot.

"I did that because I was afraid that you would be worried about me!"

"Well, I did the same thing."

Mango continued speaking calmly. However, Nathaniel felt extremely frustrated as nothing was going his way.

He looked helplessly at Mango, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Do you have anything else to say? If not, please leave. I am exhausted, and I want to rest."

Mango's tone was still calm and emotionless. However, Nathaniel could see the weariness in her eyes.

He wanted to ask what was she doing at the Hans family, but he could not say anything else as she had asked him to leave.

"My dear wife, can you come back and rest in the master bedroom?"

Right now, Nathaniel was still fighting for the upper hand.
