The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1491

Dennis looked at Nathaniel and said with a smile, "Yes, you're right. It was indeed a trap."

Mango was slightly displeased upon hearing his confession. However, she could not do anything since Dennis was her father, whom she had not seen for many years. Hence, she snorted and turned her head away to express her dissatisfaction.

Of course, Dennis saw it too. He wanted to laugh and said, "Mango, don't you think this is a good plan?"

"The plan is good, but it's a heartless one."

Mango had to admit it. It was indeed a thorough plan to lure the mastermind, but obviously, they didn't consider the women's feelings.

Well, she was not a great person either. Sometimes, it was difficult for her to look at the problem objectively without being influenced by other factors.

On the other hand, Nathaniel looked at Dennis with eyes of admiration.

Of course, Dennis really had a way of his own. Although this made Mango furious, she couldn't be angry for long. After all, their plan was designed well.

Despite acting so, Mango was still a rationale person.

Dennis sighed and said, "The war is cruel. Although it may not seem to be it, the mastermind wants Desmond dead. However, why do they want Desmond? Furthermore, why did they study the cause of his genetic violence? What kind of disaster would occur if the violent factor was used in military affairs? Have you ever thought about the consequences it will bring to the people? The people were the victims who suffered the most during the war. Now there are more modern weapons and equipment, and the lethality would be much greater than before."

Dennis knew better than anyone than the disastrous impact of war. He would rather be a free-spirited person than work as a soldier. After all, he had been through suffering and witnessed tons of deaths during his mission.

A trace of pain flashed across his eyes when he thought about this.

Then, he whispered, "I know this plan will upset the girls, especially Tristan and Desmond's partners. I understood that they probably had a difficult time during this period. However, the ongoing situation in the country was more urgent than the incident that Desmond had caused.

Therefore, we had no choice but to weigh the risk and benefits. Tristan is a soldier, and he has various responsibilities and missions on hand. Although Desmond is not a soldier, his presence is a crime itself. If this doesn't happen, wouldn't the girls suffer even more if Desmond goes violent one day? We let this thing happen in advance to minimize future harm. This tragedy will happen, and it's just a matter of time. Mango, we hope you and the girls can live freely in peace. However, someone has to sacrifice to maintain this peace. Do you understand?"

After hearing the explanation, Mango could not retort Dennis's words anymore.

She knew that she had to support all the soldiers' decisions unconditionally. She could feel wronged, sad, and disappointed, but she had to bear it.

At this moment, Mango could really understand that it was difficult to be a soldier.

The anger in her heart instantly vanished after hearing this.

"Dad, then what about you? You've been a soldier for so many years. What were your goals? What are you holding on to? Also, Kolton took you away and used you as a spy. Although the rumors said that you were dead, how did you manage to escape?”

Mango looked at Dennis and asked as she was eager to know the truth.

Dennis looked at Mango and smiled, but it was bitter.

"If I tell you that the person who was dissected wasn't me, would you believe me?"

Mango was stunned by these words. In fact, Nathaniel was also surprised.

Nathaniel would never believe that Kolton was such a foolish person, but...

Dennis looked at the disbelief in their eyes. Then, he took a deep breath and said, "When Kolton took me back, I was badly mutilated because of the explosion. At that time, no one thought that the soldiers would follow us all the way to the island."

Dennis' eyes were a little teary when he recalled what had happened in the past.
