The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1713

When Carlson arrived, he immediately sensed the depressing atmosphere. Upon seeing his presence, Thomas and the others were shocked.

"Mr. Mo, why are you here? This is the quarantine area. You shouldn't have come here!"

Under the care of Wisdom and others, Thomas's condition was getting much better.

Carlson was a little moved. Although he had always been cold and indifferent, he couldn't control his emotions at certain time.

"Feeling much better?"

He held Thomas up

"Yes, Thank you for your concern."

Rainie frowned when she noticed Carlson's arrival.

She didn't understand a soldier's emotion upon seeing his superior after going through hardships in the battlefield. However, this made her a little uncomfortable, especially when she overheard something the conversation between Zion and Mango. This made her dislike Carlson.

"Look at yourself, don't you see how badly you are injured? Why aren't you taking a good rest? If you don't recover well, I will take our son away and remarry."

As soon as she said that, Thomas looked a little embarrassed.

Carlson obviously heard the dissatisfaction and hatred in Rainie's words.

He couldn't help glancing at her.

If it weren't for Thomas, Carlson might not have treated her respectfully. However, he could only keep it to himself upon thinking of Thomas's current identity, the efforts of the Blu family, and the relationship between Rainie and Mango.

In fact, there was nothing he could do. He could only shoulder the responsibility for whatever mistake his father had committed.

"That's true. Have a good rest. I'll go to find Zion and Wisdom."

He patted Thomas on the shoulder.

Thomas was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't say anything to Rainie. After Carlson left, Thomas said dotingly, "He is Mr. Mo after all. Shouldn't you treat him better? Aren't you afraid that I might get bullied by other?"

"So what? If that doesn't work, you don't have to be a soldier. You'd have lots of money and support if you work for Nathaniel. At least our family will have a good and stable life, right? I really don't get it when you decided to head over the overseas battlefield, just why?"

Rainie's voice wasn't low, so Carlson could hear her clearly.

He knew that if he could not appease these people, his efforts over the years might be in vain.

He had been disdainful of being in power before, but now he had too many things on his shoulders. He needed to be in lead or else he was afraid of his family wellbeing and future.

In fact, he really needed Nathaniel's help.

Sadly, he had become the person he didn't wish to be.

Meanwhile, Zion was busy working on his computer when Carlson entered. Although he didn't get up and greet him, Carlson was already used to it.

Carlson felt more reassured when he was with Zion.

"How is it? Is it tiring here?"

"Not bad."

Zion continued to work without looking at him. The firewalls protection was getting weaker and hard to deal with. He wondered if the cyber attackers have increased.

Carlson handed him a glass of water and Zion took a sip before saying, "If you want to take me away, you have to bring Sissaye over. Otherwise, the situation with the firewall is getting out of control. No one has the ability to control it other than her."

Speaking of this, Carlson was slightly stunned.

How did Zion know that he was coming to take him away?
