The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 142

Mango followed Terrance as she was thinking about something on her mind. Unconsciously, she arrived at the gate of the dungeon. However, she tripped over a step because she wasn't paying attention. Her whole body then fell towards Terrance.

Everything came unprepared. When Thomas wanted to get her, it was too late. Mango fell down hard on Terrance's body and she sat right on Terrance's thighs.

The soft feeling made Terrance entirely froze in an instant, and he even subconsciously held Mango's waist.

Her waist was so soft and so slim. Terrance could not help but feel something fluttering in his heart.

Mango felt a pair of big hands on her waist, strong and powerful. The burning temperature seemed to have scorched her skin, which made her want to get up subconsciously, but since it all happened too soon, so when she raised her head, she bumped into Terrance's chin.

It turned out that Terrance had already lowered his head at some point, as if he was checking on her. However, only Terrance himself knew that at that moment, he had an inappropriate intention of the woman in front of him.

If Mango hadn't suddenly looked up, he didn't know whether he would have kissed Mango or not. Thinking of his thoughts and actions just now, Terrance suddenly felt a little shy. Now as he was facing Mango's clear and panicked eyes, Terrance felt himself like a wretched villain even more.

"Are you all right?"

Terrance quickly opened his mouth, but his voice was hoarse and his eyes were gloomy.

Mango was no longer an innocent girl, so she naturally understood the meaning of Terrance's eyes at the moment. She quickly stood up and said with embarrassment, "I'm sorry. I was thinking about something just now, I'm really sorry."

"It doesn't matter."

With the weight and warmth being taken away from his thighs, Terrance felt a little disappointed, as if something was missing from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to grasp it, but after all, he sense had won his emotions. He silently withdrew his hand.

"It's ok. There are many steps here. Be careful."

Terrance said lightly, but his eyes no longer dared to look at Mango. His eyes could not deceive Mango anymore at this moment.

Thomas saw it clearly. After frowning slightly, he quickly came between Mango and Terrance and whispered to Mango, "Miss Shen, let me help you. It's not easy to walk here."

Outside, Thomas still called Mango Miss Shen. After all, her real identity couldn't be exposed at this moment.

Mango nodded, feeling quite embarrassed. After this accident, Terrance and Mango did not know what to say for a while. They could only walk inside in silence.

The lights in the dungeon had a sensor, and they got switched on one after another with the people coming in.

Mango's attention was all focused on the dungeon. She felt that the Hans family was really like the military family in the past, and even the dungeon had a faint smell of blood.

As if he had thought of something, Terrance whispered, "It's quite bloody here. Why don't you wait here, Miss Shen? I'll tell someone to bring Newell out."

Mango couldn't stand the smell inside and asked in a low voice, "Is this appropriate? What if he runs away..."

"He won't run away."

Terrance's words were very confident. Mango could only nod. There was nothing she could do because her stomach was rumbling, and she couldn't keep walking inside anymore.

Thomas found a chair for Mango to sit down.

This should be a temporary resting place, and there was hot tea on the table. The temperature was just right.

Seeing Mango looking at the teapot, Thomas asked hurriedly, "Miss Shen, are you thirsty?"

"No, I just feel strange that this kettle is warm."

Mango spoke out her doubts in a low voice. Thomas said, "In order to know the whereabouts of their descendants, the Hans family keep interrogating Newell every day. Mr. Hans probably spends a lot of time in here."

Mango was slightly stunned.

"Does Newell know the whereabouts of the descendants of the Hans family?"

"They said that there was an orphan who was sent to the orphanage with Newell at the same time. Newell has been taking care of her for so many years. It was also Newell who said that he was the descendant of the Hans family. He must know the truth. Now the Hans family is running out of offsprings. They will try their best to find their descendants. Madam Hans is also eager to find her grandson."

Listening to Thomas's words, Mango thought of her own daughter, Rita.

As a mother, she naturally understood the pain of missing her child. Madam Hans's three sons all died on the battlefield, and now there was only Terrance left, who couldn't move his legs anymore.

All of a sudden, Mango had a solemn admiration for the Hans family.

Regardless of what Madam Hans had said or done, these men in the family indeed deserved respect.

Mango stopped talking and waited quietly. It didn't take long before Newell was brought out. Mango finally knew why Terrance said that he wouldn't run away.

Newell's legs were bloody and badly mutilated, and he was dragged out. Obviously, he could no longer walk with those legs. Unless someone came to save him, Newell would not be able to run out alone.

When he saw Mango, Newell was somewhat surprised, but he quickly lowered his head. He knew very well why Mango came to ask him.

"Miss Shen needs to ask you about something. You'd better answer honestly. Otherwise, I think you know what the Hans family is capable of."

Terrance said coldly, giving people a sense of invisible oppression.

Newell frowned slightly and shivered uncontrollably. It was obvious that he had been traumatized, but he did not speak.

Mango looked at him and did not feel sympathy for him. Newell had to pay for what he had done.

If Zion hadn't been smart and Nathaniel hadn't found him in time, she would have lost her beloved son by now.
