The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 192

Mango's face paled, but Wisdom could not understand what was said.

"Mommy, what is morphine?"

Wisdom asked softly. However, Mango covered her mouth and her body was trembling.

She could not cope when she heard the truth!

The doctor obviously understood how Nathaniel felt, and he did not blame him for his attitude. However, he spoke in a defeated tone, "Mr. Ye, I know you're distressed, but Miss Shen is extremely unwell. We need to let her body settle down first. She's in no condition for surgery, and it takes time to heal. I can't do anything more for her."

"You're a doctor and you tell me you can't do anything? She is only four years old! Her life has only begun!"

Nathaniel was devastated.

His tone was frigid, and the tense atmosphere unsettled the doctor greatly.

"Mr. Ye, I'm just a doctor. What I can do is to examine Miss Shen's condition and make a plan according to it. However, I still need you to sign off on this treatment plan!"

"Sign what? My daughter is only four years old! Do you want me to agree to use morphine on her? That's my daughter you're talking about!"

Nathaniel's eyes were red and they became wet with tears.

After that, Mango could not stand it anymore and she pushed open the door to the office.

"I won't allow it!"

Mango's voice was not loud, but it stunned the two men in the office.

"Mango? What are you doing here?"

Nathaniel was taken aback slightly.

With that, Wisdom felt that he might have done something wrong. Then, he quickly hid behind Mango. He looked at Nathaniel timidly and he said, "Is me who brought mommy here."

Nathaniel felt both stunned and relieved when he heard Wisdom call Mango "mommy". Next, he released the doctor and he went over to Mango.

"Are you all right?"

"What's going on with Rita? Tell me everything."

Mango looked at Nathaniel with tears in her eyes.

Right then, Nathaniel knew that she must have overheard them.

"Mango, there are some things I'd rather take care of."

In truth, Nathaniel did not want Mango to feel sad. Over the years, Mango's feelings for Abyss were complicated. Even if Nathaniel was jealous of that, he decided to put that aside for Mango's sake.

Mango's eyes were full to the brim with tears as she understood Nathaniel's good intentions. However, the more so, the more she wanted to know the "Tell me. I am Rita's mother and I have a right to know no matter what it is."

Mango's body was trembling, but her eyes were determined.

Thus, her vulnerability made Nathaniel unable to refuse her request.

Nathaniel sighed softly and he told Mango about Rita's condition.

Although she already had some idea about it, Mango still wept when she heard Nathaniel's words.

At this moment, she really cried in devastation.

She was indebted to Abyss for his treatment over the last five years, but she never thought that the truth would be so painful.

How could Abyss do that?

If Abyss had not cared about Rita and Zion from the beginning, then Mango would have nothing to say. However, Abyss gave Mango the false impression that Rita was born that way when he was trying to hastened her death.

Anyway, no mother would be able to cope with such a thing.

Thus, Mango felt dizzy. Fortunately, Nathaniel was prepared for this and he held her up.

This weak woman still didn't cry owlishly even at this point, but the hidden tears hurt Nathaniel very much.

"Mango, leave this to me, okay?" Nathaniel asked her with a pained heart.

In the end, Mango nodded.

In fact, she felt really stupid.

Previously, she had begged Nathaniel not to make things difficult for Abyss because he had saved her life five years ago. Furthermore, Nathaniel had given whatever the Tang family had asked from the Ye family. Hence, Mango had not expected that the truth would turn out to be like this.

She was extremely upset.

Seeing that she was in a foul mood, Nathaniel planned to send her back to her room but Mango refused.

"Doctor, what's going to happen to my daughter now?"

This was Mango's biggest concern.

At this point, it was hard to say whether Rita would survive. Even the doctor was not confident.

The doctor looked at Nathaniel and he saw that he did not stop Mango. Next, he said softly, "What we want to do is to temporarily relieve Rita's pain."

"By using morphine?"

Mango did not complain or criticize him. On the contrary, she was calm as she asked the question.
