The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1415

Zion had been keeping an eye on the changes in Angolla. Even if Nathaniel and Mango told him that there was no need for this, he still kept an eye on the fluctuations of their personnel. Thus, Zion was able to see through this slight change.

On the other hand, Nathaniel hadn't paid much attention to it at first, but when he heard Zion's words, he started to have an ominous feeling.

"What's his name?"

"Justin Fang."

The name that Zion mentioned piqued Nathaniel's interest immediately

"Justin Fang? That is indeed a name from the royal family. Hmm... this is interesting! Did Atlas Fang do this?"

"Mr. Ye, you're amazing! Atlas was indeed the one who registered the name as he told the public that it was the name of his adopted son. But isn't the person he has been taking care of all these years his uncle? Isn't his uncle's name Maverick Abbott? He's not Justin Fang either."

Nathaniel felt warmth and familiarity when he heard Zion calling him 'Mr. Ye'.

"Maybe that is his real son, and he is not an adopted one."

"How is that possible? I have received news that Bernard is already dead."

After hearing what Zion said, Nathaniel realized that the child had been keeping an eye on the movements in Angolla, so he had wanted to say a few words to Zion. However, he realised that Zion knew what exactly he was doing, so he said nothing else.

"I'll send someone to find out how Bernard's body was disposed of after he died. Don't follow up on this matter."

"Alright."

Meanwhile, Zion didn't insist but asked instead, "Mr. Ye, are you and Mommy back? When are you coming to pick us up?"

Nathaniel paused for a moment after hearing this question. Then, he recalled how Mango ignored him and thought that the children could help his situation. So, he couldn't help but say, "We are indeed back in Ocean City, but your mommy is mad at me. I can't seem to make up with her, and now I'm seriously injured, so I hope that you guys can come back and help me."

"Huh? Did you get seriously injured again? How could you be so weak, Mr. Ye? Why do you always get badly wounded when you go on missions? Don't you know that mommy is very worried about you?"

Zion's reprimands crushed Nathaniel's spirits even more.

After all, Zion was his real son!

"Zion Ye!"

Nathaniel shouted Zion's name word by word with an unhappy expression.

Meanwhile, Zion stopped provoking him and said hurriedly, "Alright, alright. I will say no more. Send someone to pick us up tomorrow."

"Let Michael send you guys back. If my guess is correct, the other party might target you guys instead since they couldn't lay their hands on your mom again. So, let's wait a day, alright? You can take action once my men find out how Bernard's body was disposed of."

Well, Nathaniel was still a little worried about this.

If the children were at the headquarters of the Baxter Alliance, the other party wouldn't dare to go in and harm them openly, would they?

On the other hand, Zion had initially wanted to reject this idea, but when he thought of Rita and Wisdom, he agreed to it.

"Mr. Ye, do you want me to go and say hello to mommy and put in a few good words for you?"

"Well, thank you so much. Hurry up and do it."

After hanging up the phone, Nathaniel's lips curled into a smile.

That brat!

When he recalled what Zion had told him just now, Nathaniel had no choice but to quickly send someone to investigate Bernard's body.

Now that Nathaniel was not in Angolla now, he couldn't reach out to his subordinate there immediately. Moreover, he didn't know what had happened to Priscilla, so he was concerned about her.

Just when he was at a loss, Priscilla sent him a message.

"Mr. Ye, Bernard didn't die! When I learned that Mango was attacked, I sent someone to investigate how they had taken care of Bernard's body when he died. In the end, I found out that Atlas only cremated the person and then threw the ashes into the sea without even setting up a headstone. At the same time, Atlas also put the name of an adopted son in his family register. I felt like this was too much of a coincidence, so I sent someone to investigate the people who had been around Bernard since he was a child. Then, we discovered that he had a guard with him since childhood. They lived and ate and did everything together, so both of them became more alive. Finally, for some unknown reason, the guard disappeared, and no one could find out his whereabouts. I suspect that the man might have altered his looks and became Bernard's substitute. He was always together with Bernard, so he should have the same demeanour and mannerisms as Bernard."

After hearing this news, Nathaniel learnt two important pieces of information.

First, Bernard could probably be alive.

Next, Bernard desperately wished to kill Mango to take his revenge because she had shot him herself.

Therefore, if he found any evidence to support his assumptions, the mastermind targeting Mango would definitely be Bernard!

At this thought, Nathaniel combed through the entire situation again. When he came to this conclusion, he wanted to unleash his fury.

How was Bernard so resilient? Urgh! He didn't die the first time!

However, since they had managed to kill him once, they were bound to succeed the second time. However, Nathaniel was still unclear about something. If Bernard was still alive, why would Atlas cooperate with them and partake in the power struggle against Laborn?

Then, Nathaniel thought about this incident again and understood what was going on. Alas! Atlas was using Bernard's death as a gambit to instigate his battle against Laborn. By returning Bernard to the Fang family, he was planning to take the country for his son.

Also, this meant that Atlas wanted to put Bernard onto the throne!
