The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1546

He was left with no other choice?

Did he have to?

Then why did the Li family treat Tessa and Sissaye so badly?

It was absolutely hateful and despicable!

Marcelo lowered his head a little as if he had sensed Mango's gaze. He was unable to refute everything he had done before, but he felt that he was a dirtbag once he realized his mistakes.

Nathaniel didn't like to kick people when they were down. Perhaps he had a reign on his temper after he fell in love with Mango.

"Alright, tell me the reason. What on earth happened back then?"

Marcelo thought for a moment before he said in a low voice, "At that time, the business of the Li family was badly affected, but it didn't get on the news. Our goods were lost at the sea when our boats were following the Grey family's directions at seas. Everything we had was on that ship. We thought that there would be no problem if we followed the Grey family, but everything went against our wish. When we found the members of the Grey family, they told us that they didn't have our goods. We were really desperate at that time."

At the thought of everything in the past, Marcelo could still remember that his father was devastated back then.

"The Grey family?"

Mango narrowed her eyes a little.

"Is it Jameson Grey? From the Grey family in Ocean City?"

Marcelo nodded in response.

"Yeah, who else can navigate the seas besides the Grey family?"

"What happened afterwards?"

Nathaniel continued to fire questions.

Marcelo frowned and said, "At that time, we thought that the Grey family didn't want to pay us for our losses, so we went to argue with Jameson. As a result, the shipping order of the ship didn't contain the record of the shipment of our goods. But I remember clearly that it was indeed registered. How could the record not exist? Maybe the Grey family wanted these goods for themselves. As for whether that ship sank to the bottom of the sea or not, it was just what the Grey family said. Who knows if it's the truth?"

Marcelo was furious when he thought of this. If it weren't for this incident, he wouldn't have married Tessa due to a lack of money. Perhaps everything wouldn't have come to this.

"That's impossible."

Mango shook her head upon hearing this.

"I know Jameson very well. Besides, the Grey family has been dealing with logistics at the sea for so many years without making any mistakes. If what you said is true, their reputation would have been tarnished a long time ago. How is it possible for them to carry on with their business?"

"But it was indeed the Grey family's butler who helped me register the goods last time. That cargo was very important and I sent it there myself. I saw with my own eyes as it boarded the ship after being registered. Since the Grey family's sailing route was private, no one else was allowed to board the ship with them. I had no choice but to return by plane. But when I came back, I was told that the ship sank. Then I could not find any information on the registration of the shipment. Who else could be behind this other than the Grey family?"

Marcelo was indeed shameless and despicable, but he never lied. He was always true to his words. Besides, he didn't need to frame the Grey family.

When Mango saw Marcelo's agitation, she could imagine how important that batch of goods was to the Li family. However, she still didn't believe that the Grey family had obtained the batch of goods for themselves.

Nathaniel did not believe it as well, but he noticed something from the conversation.

"You said that the butler of the Grey family registered the goods for you. Is that right?"

"Yes."

"What is he called?"

"Ezequiel. He is about fifty years old."

Marcelo tried hard to recall the past as he said in a low voice, "I've fought tooth and nail to get to know him."

However, Nathaniel said directly, "The Grey family's butler is not called Ezequiel, so you are likely duped."

"How is this even possible?"

Marcelo was completely stunned.

"I saw the goods board the Grey family's ship with my own eyes."

"The ship was there, but it may not belong to the Grey family."

Marcelo was stupefied once more upon hearing Nathaniel's words.

"Who can mess around with the Grey family ship?" "That's a good question. I would like to know too." Nathaniel pondered for a moment before he asked, "You said that it took a lot of effort to get to know the Grey family's butler, Ezequiel. Is that right?"

"Exactly."

"How did you get to know him?"

Mango also felt that Nathaniel was wasting time by discussing the past with Marcelo. However, she did not expect that the Grey family was the root of the problem. So now Walter and Deborah were in danger. Was this related to the destruction of the Li family eight years ago?

Marcelo didn't know what was on Mango's mind, but he still thought for a moment before saying, "I spent some money, and someone in the business introduced him to me at that time."

"Think about it carefully. If you can think of a specific person, maybe I can spare you. Now, I'm going to be honest with you. Tessa has nothing to do with me, but you did offend someone in the process."

Marcelo froze momentarily upon hearing Nathaniel's words.

Mango was a little concerned. "Nathan, is there a need to tell him about this?"

Nathaniel looked at Marcelo as he said word by word, "I think he is quite capable. He judges the situation pretty well and knows the right thing to say. So I will allow him to die knowing the truth even if he has to die."
