The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1420

"Mr. Ye? When did you come out? Why didn't you say anything? By the way, how's your injury? Are you okay?"

Priscilla couldn't help but ask continuously when she saw that Nathaniel looked pale.

On the other hand, Nathaniel's gaze never left Mango.

Urgh! That heartless woman didn't care about how he was doing now. She hadn't even said a word to him, even though she had been back for around three days. Furthermore, even though he had tried everything, Mango still turned a blind eye to him.

What else could he do to get his wife's attention?

At this thought, Nathaniel was speechless.

However, when he heard Priscilla's question, he replied perfunctorily, "I'm fine. I won't die."

Then, he went back to his bedroom.

Meanwhile, Priscilla knew that he was angry when she saw him like this. But she didn't do anything to provoke Nathaniel. Therefore, was Nathaniel mad because she had married Tristan and become his brother-in-law?

The more Priscilla thought about this, the more

she felt that she had married Tristan too hastily.

That wouldn't do!

She had to tell Tristan at night that this marriage was illegitimate.

At this thought, Priscilla asked Maya to bring in the gifts. Then, she walked in as well.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel did not lie down but was sitting in his wheelchair. He was looking at the scenery outside, but no one knew what was on his mind.

When Priscilla came behind him, she suddenly felt a little emotional.

She was meeting the person whom she had most wanted to marry. However, she didn't feel upset anymore, but she did feel like Nathaniel was a relative to her now.

Was it because her feelings for Nathaniel weren't deep? Or was it because she was a promiscuous woman?

Priscilla couldn't figure this out, so she felt a little depressed.

"Mr. Ye, may I ask you a question?"

Now that Mango wasn't around, Priscilla thought it was an opportunity to ask Nathaniel some sensitive questions. Furthermore, this would be the last time she would ask Nathaniel this.

Nathaniel nodded in reply after hearing her question.

Then, Priscilla asked somewhat embarrassingly, "Mr. Ye, do you think that I'm promiscuous or fickle? Or do you think that I've always used my wits to trick others?"

"Huh? Why do you say that?"

Nathaniel frowned when he saw how conflicted Priscilla was.

He felt sorry for Priscilla as he had always thought of her as a younger sister.

After hearing this question, Priscilla bit her lip and thought for a while before saying, "I always knew that I liked you. I even told myself that I would only marry you in this life. If you didn't marry Mango, who is such a good match for you, I think I wouldn't have given up so quickly. However, I've only given up on you for a while, and I've also only met Tristan recently, but my feelings for you diminished. When Tristan and I got married earlier, I didn't even hate it at all. I thought it was because it didn't matter who I married since they were all not you. However, I didn't feel repulsed when I looked at our marriage license, and I felt happy instead, so I felt like a hypocritical woman. Alas! I don't deserve you indeed!"

After saying these words, Priscilla felt very

miserable.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel had rarely seen Priscilla in such distress. In the past, he was afraid that Priscilla had too much of a crush on him. Now that he heard that Priscilla was married to Tristan, he felt happy and gratified.

"Don't be silly. You haven't loved me at all. After all, you've just always admired and felt grateful towards me?"

"What? How is that possible? I'm sure I had feelings for you!"

Priscilla retorted directly.

She knew exactly how she felt.

Then, Nathaniel looked at her and finally smiled before asking, "When did you fall in love with me then?"

"When you rescued me from the uninhabited area at the age of eighteen. I fell in love with you deeply after that."

"What if I tell you that the person who saved you that year wasn't me but Tristan?"

Priscilla was stunned when she heard what Nathaniel had said.

"What did you say?"

"The person who saved you that year was indeed not me, but Tristan. When he handed you to me, you were unconscious. Tristan, on the other hand, was seriously injured too. Thus, he also fainted because he had no more strength left. Perhaps your memory of him had completely faded. However, do you remember that after you woke up, there was another patient in your ward? You got along well with him at that time. Well, to be exact, you had so much fun bullying him quite often."

Nathaniel talked about Pricilla's past.

Meanwhile, Priscilla had no memory of this, but she vaguely remembered that she had indeed bullied a boy.

This was because she had been too bored while she was staying in the hospital. At that time, the hospital's facilities were limited, and there were neither communication signals nor mobile phones. She could not find Nathaniel, so she could only hang out with the boy from the same ward. But the boy seemed to be very dull and did not like to talk. Thus, she had teased him repeatedly and was happy when she managed to anger him.

If Nathaniel hadn't mentioned this now, Priscilla would never have recalled that she still had these memories.

"Was the boy from that time Tristan?"

"Mhm, that's right."

Nathaniel remembered how miserable Tristan had looked when Priscilla had bullied him back then. At this thought, he couldn't help but chuckle.
