The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1526

Mango was dumbfounded when she saw that Sissaye was nowhere to be seen in the video.

"What on earth is going on?"

"She isn't what we think she is. She is really something."

Nathaniel's interest was slightly aroused.

He wondered who was the better at computer. Was it Sessaye or that brat, Zion?

Mango also understood what Nathaniel was saying. She still replied, "No matter who she is, she wouldn't be in this state if she had money. Can you restore the videos?"

There was a strange glint in Nathaniel's eyes when his wife doubted him. His mood was a bit strange as well.

"Honey, do you not know me?"

"What?"

"How can I lose to a young girl?"

After saying that, he pushed the security guard away and sat in front of the monitor. He tapped on the keyboard quickly. The solemn look on her face made Mango smile slightly.

This man was getting increasingly arrogant, but she still liked him that way.

It didn't take long for Nathaniel to restore the video. He saw Sissaye sneak into the doctor's office and delete the video with the computer there in less than two minutes.

She was really good at it!

Nathaniel looked at the side of Sissaye's face in the video and felt that she looked familiar.

"Where on earth have I seen her?

Nathaniel couldn't think of anything at all.

He quickly connected the monitor on the computer to the surveillance cameras outside the hospital. He looked at the street around the hospital and spotted Sissaye.

She was walking very slowly. She stopped for a while after walking because of the pain in her legs, but she still kept her back straight. She looked full of pride.

"I know where she is. Come with me."

Nathaniel brought Mango out of the hospital and took a taxi. He told the driver the name of a street. The driver quickly started the car.

Nathaniel paid the fare and stood at the intersection with Mango as they waited.

"What are we doing here?"

Mango was a little baffled.

Nathaniel answered, "Sissaye will be here soon. Although there were a lot of roads here, I've noticed from the surveillance camera that all intersections can only lead to one place, which is this intersection. So she will definitely pass through here later."

Mango understood the situation once he explained it. She couldn't help but think of the note Sissaye left behind.

No wonder Sissaye didn't ask them about their names and address but she promised that she would give the money back to them in the future. It turned out that she was a hacker.

When Mango saw Sissaye's skills, she couldn't help but think of Zion. If these two kids were in a competition, who would be the better hacker?

Sissaye's forehead was covered with sweat because of the pain, but she did not stop walking.

She had been away from home for three days. She wondered how her mother was doing.

All the valuables at home were taken by her father, who was a gambler. Then he sold her to work for someone else. To put it nicely, he wanted her to work with the leader of the acrobatics team and earn money, but truth was, he sold her as a slave.

Her mother was still sick when she left. She left her some money in secret. She didn't know if her father would take it away if he had noticed.

Sissaye did not dare to delay her return at the thought of this.

However, she froze abruptly when she looked upward and saw Nathaniel and Mango.

She had deleted the surveillance videos in the hospital. Why were they here?

"Who exactly are you? What do you want?"

Sissaye looked at them with a warily.

The two of them were wearing expensive clothes. To her, a piece of their clothing was enough to cover the cost of the life of her family for several months.

They had saved her for no reason and sent her to the hospital for treatment. Mango even treated her with love and care. If this happened to another child, they would probably be grateful. However, Sissaye lived a difficult life since she was a child. She was used to experiencing and witnessing evil people at work. She did not believe that people in this world would be good to her for no reason.

In her opinion, Nathaniel and Mango were probably human traffickers. They were planning to sell her somewhere else. Or else why would they spend so much money for her?

She said that she would return the money to them, and she did mean it. After all, they had saved her life. However, she would not give them the chance to hurt her.

Sissaye had an icy look in her eyes. After all, she was still young, so she didn't know how to conceal her emotions. Nathaniel and Mango saw her wariness and suspicion.

At this moment, Mango was suddenly at a loss for what to say.

What should she say?

Should she tell Sissaye that they are not the bad guys?

But could she judge someone from the way they looked?

At this moment, Mango actually admired Sissaye's wariness and caution. If it were Rita, she would probably walk away with someone who had offered her a drumstick.

As Mango looked at Sissaye, she missed Rita even more.

Nathaniel felt that this girl was pretty interesting. He was curious to know who her parents were because she seemed familiar.

"We don't want anything. We just think that we should have sent you to your parents in person since we have saved you, otherwise, we will feel worried."

"No need for that. I know the way home, so I'm able to go back by myself. As I have written in the note, I will pay back the money I owe you."
