The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1414

Earlier, he was worried that if he told Brantley about Magnolia, the former would be hasty and ruin their plans. Furthermore, it would be worse Magnolia had no feelings of affection towards Brantley! What if she was trying to take advantage or revenge on him? As she was taken away since young, no one could understand her intentions, but they didn't want to risk anything either.

Now that Magnolia had Barack by her side and wanted sincerely to be together with him, Nathaniel felt that it was necessary to tell Brantley the truth.

At this thought, Nathaniel told Brantley everything that had happened.

After hearing the entire story, Brantley was infuriated.

"Are you trying to say that who kidnapped my daughter then was Laborn Fang?"

"That's right! Laborn Fang even raised Aunt Magnolia as an assassin since young. When he saw that she fell in love with Barack, he took Barack hostage and used him to force Magnolia into becoming his seventh wife. She even bore him a son, who is Lebanon Fang. But before this, Aunt Magnolia also had a son with Barack. She hid this from everyone and gave birth to him in secret for his safety and gave him away to the Acker family. I think Bettany helped Aunt Magnolia greatly back then. After all, having a son by herself is no easy feat, unless she had someone with medical knowledge by her side. Coincidentally, Bettany was good friends with Aunt Magnolia."

Nathaniel told Brantley his speculations.

Upon hearing this, Brantley started becoming emotional.

He had thought that he would be lonely for the rest of his life, but he never expected to have a daughter left!

Brantley had always felt guilty towards his oldest daughter. He didn't protect her well then, and because of that, he couldn't preserve his relationship with his wife. His family fell apart after that, and they never saw their daughter again, even till the day of his wife's death.

But now, he never expected to hear that Magnolia was still alive, and she had even given him two grandsons. Hence, Brantley felt exhilarated.

"Where is she now? Can I see her?"

Nathaniel whispered, "Grandpa, she is with Barack at Santell Capital now. Master Mo has sent people to take care of them. If you want to see them, you can call Master Mo and ask if Aunt Magnolia is willing to see you."

Nathaniel felt that Brantley was already old, so the latter could do away with some of his regrets. After all, if he were to pass away one day, Magnolia would not be able to see him again even if she wanted to.

After hearing this, Brantley was clear on what he needed to do.

"Alright, I'll call Master Mo right away! Please take good care of Mango."

"She's my wife. It's my duty to do anything for her."

Nathaniel didn't bother acting melodramatic as he said this.

After hanging up the phone, Nathaniel breathed a sigh of relief.

If he wasn't worried that Mango would visit the Xiao family to see Brantley, Nathaniel wouldn't have told him about Magnolia at this point. In the end, he was still frightened.

The mastermind even dared to shoot at Mango on the open streets in Ocean City. If Mango went out again, this would give the killer another chance to assassinate her. However, Mango would ignore his advice since she was still mad at him.

Hence, if Brantleywent to Santell Capital, Mango would have no reason to leave the house.

Wait! That wasn't right!

There were still Walter and Deborah left!

Nathaniel suddenly felt that he was in a tough situation.

Well, if he wanted to get his wife's forgiveness and to protect her, he needed to get rid of the people around them.

Alas! He was still a wounded patient!

However, his wife didn't feel sorry for him at all.

At this thought, Nathaniel felt miserable as he took out his phone to call Walter.

When Walter heard Nathaniel say that the latter would pay the expenses for Walter and Deborah to go for a medical checkup in Colorado, he was stunned momentarily.

"Why are you suddenly acting so kind?"

"Look, I just don't want Mango to visit you anytime soon."

Nathaniel told Walter the truth immediately.

Then, Walter immediately looked at the news about Mango's incident on his phone before asking deliberately, "Who is the mastermind? Have you found them?"

"It should have something to do with Angolla. I'm in the middle of my investigation, so Mango should stay home during this time. As you know, if she wants to go out, I can't stop her. But if you guys are not in Ocean City, she'll have nowhere to go."

"I understand. Transfer the money to my bank account. Don't worry, I'll leave with Deborah immediately."

Walter was straightforward, but Nathaniel was a little unhappy.

If he had known that Walter would agree to this so readily for Mango, he wouldn't have said that he would cover their expenses.

"Doesn't the Grey family have money?"

"Hmm... the money belongs to my father-in-law, and I don't like spending other people's money."

Walter said leisurely.

Nathaniel scoffed after hearing this.

"Heh! Sminorf Corporation seems to be doing well recently."

"Huh? I can't bear to spend my money."

"D*mn you!"

After cursing, Nathaniel hung up the phone angrily. He felt aggrieved at first but then felt at ease as he thought of Mango.

Well, he would let Walter gloat for two days. Besides, he didn't mind spending some money as long as he could get Walter to leave. After all, this money was nothing to him!

Nathaniel then transferred a hundred dollars to Walter.

When Walter saw the hundred dollars, he scolded Nathaniel immediately.

"D*mn it! How could you pay for our expenses with this measly sum?"

"Well, it's just half an hour's drive to Colorado. I think a hundred dollars is enough for a round trip."

Nathaniel said it as a matter of course.

Walter immediately sneered in reply
