The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 265

Nathaniel whirled around quickly, but he could not tell where the person was while peeping at him.

Nathaniel had always been a cautious and alert person, so his feeling earlier could not be wrong. If Mango had not warned him that there could be outsiders on the base, he may not be so vigilant.

However, as soon as he stepped out of Zack's room, Nathaniel sensed that he was being followed and the unsettled feeling was so bad.

Nathaniel was so annoyed and disturbed.

He was worried about Mango's safety and he even wanted to turn back to warn Mango, but then the thought of Rita crossed his mind suddenly.

Rita's operation could not be performed without him, so he had to go home as soon as possible.

Then, Nathaniel took out his mobile phone and he called Zion right away.

He did not know how to contact Merle, so he had no choice but to have Zion inform Merle to closely guard Mango's safety.

Meanwhile, Zion was ensconced deeply in his sleep so he ended the call as soon as it started ringing.

Right then, Nathaniel felt a little helpless.

The little brat could be sleeping very soundly right now and Nathaniel wouldn’t have disturbed Zion's sleep if possible, but he had no choice.

Zion was extremely annoyed and he picked up the call when the phone would not stop ringing.

"Mr. Ye, what are you doing? The sun hasn't even risen yet!”

"Right now I'm at the base and I’m about to head home, but I'm afraid that something will happen to your mommy. Since I can't contact Merle, how about you call and have him monitor closely all the activities in the camp? We have to protect your mommy, got it?”

Nathaniel’s voice was soft and Zion could hardly hear his father’s words as the sea breeze whipped around in the background.

"Aren't you at the base? It'll be fine if Zack is there to protect mommy."

Zion yawned as he spoke, he was clearly still half asleep.

Nathaniel sighed and said, "Having another person there is just an extra layer of protection, so hurry up."

"Ugh, I got it. The only thing you know how to do is order me around."

Then, Zion hung up and he called Merle next. Strangely, Zion could not reach Merle's mobile phone at all.

At first, Zion did not think much of it as he figured that Merle turned off his phone while he slept. However, Zion started to feel something was wrong after he called a few more times.

Then, all his sleepiness immediately evaporated into thin air.

Then, he quickly called Nathaniel but the strange thing was that Zion could not reach Nathaniel's phone either.

The base's signal had been blocked!

But who could it be?

Who was capable of jamming the signal from the base?

Zion sat up abruptly and he quickly turned on the computer in hopes of locating Mango. Unfortunately, Mango's tracker had disappeared.

What the hell was going on?

Zion suddenly became uneasy.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel had hurriedly obtained a dinghy from the warehouse after he hung up the phone. He wanted to leave the base under the cover of night, nevertheless, he still felt uneasy.

His right eyelid twitched constantly, and Nathaniel was unsure if that was because of a lack of sleep or it was because something bad would happen.

Nathaniel set down the dinghy in the ocean before he quickly boarded it, and he used the oars to row away.

Not long after Nathaniel left, Mango suddenly opened her eyes.

The outside of her room was so quiet that it was almost stifling, but she could hear soft footsteps were approaching in the silence.

There seemed to be quite a few people were approaching her room.

Then, Mango quickly got up and she quietly got dressed before she immediately went to her window.

The outside of her room led to a heavily forested mountain and Mango had no idea what was in store for her if she left her room, but she reckoned that it was much better than being caught in a trap if she remained inside.

Mango draped a down jacket over her shoulders before she opened the window and quickly climbed out. However, she did not run for the mountains.

Instead, Mango climbed up onto the roof and she lay prone on it. She clutched her phone in her hand and intended to text Merle before she realized that the signal had been jammed.

This was bad!

Something must have happened in the base!

Furthermore, Mango was unsure if Nathaniel had left or not.

Although she had knowingly stayed here to lure the other party out, she did not expect them to have acted so quickly. Right now, she was most worried about Nathaniel's safety.

There was no way Nathaniel would be at a disadvantage with his skills, but what if he trusted the men in the base?

Mango dared not think of the consequences.

The door opened with a soft click, and Mango’s entire body tensed.

Here they came!

Her palms were slick with nervous sweat and she suppressed her breathing the best she could.

There were about four people who entered the room and two of them immediately pounced on the bed in hopes of capturing Mango. However, they failed to do so.

"There's no one here?"

The other party's voice was restrained and deliberately lowered.

"The bed is still warm, she must've left recently."

"The window is opened!"

The two of them quickly came to a conclusion.

"She has run outside, it seems like she is rather vigilant."

Right then, someone turned on the lights in the room.

Another man came into the room and he spoke faintly as he surveyed the room.

"She is so vigilant and cautious so it's no wonder that she’s Nathaniel's wife. Go and bring her to me. Regardless of what happens, Mango must not leave this base! Furthermore, Nathaniel has just left on a dinghy via the ocean. He may be alone, but he's a formidable fighter so it's best if we let him leave."

Mango was stunned when she heard the voice.
