Sisi knocked the wind out of Mango and she twisted Mango's arms behind her back before Mango could say anything else.
She was in great pain, but she still wanted to stop Zion.
Did this useless child of hers come to make problems forthem?
Who on earth brought him here?
Mango was in great pain and Nathaniel was unfortunately occupied, so now Nanny Zhang placed all of her hopes on Zion.
"Can you take us to look for the ring now? It wouldn' t be ideal if it was in Ocean City.”
Of course, Nanny Zhang knew that there would be a trap waiting for her in Ocean City, so she wouldn't stupidly follow Zion there.
Then, Zion shook his head and said, "Of course not, the ring is in the base. Earlier on, I took the ring for fun as it was shiny and pretty, but then I hid it. All of you aren't allowed to hurt my mommy anymore and I swear I won't ever give you the ring if she gets hurt again."
Zion pouted his lips and he looked very angry.
"All right, all right. I won't hit her anymore."
Nanny Zhang quickly signaled to Sisi to stop her from hitting Mango.
Sisi glared viciously at Mango, but Mango could not speak as she could hardly bear the pain from Sisi’s punches.
Soon, sweat oozed from Mango's forehead.
Zion asked worriedly, "Mommy, are you okay?”
"I'm fine..."
She said that to not worry her son, but her voice trembled and she didn't look alright at all.
Zion’s gaze became colder as he looked at Nanny Zhang and said, "If you touch my mommy again, I'll have someone toss the ring. When that happens, no one will be able to have it!"
"Okay, okay. My beloved grandson, please take grandma to the ring, okay?"
Zion looked at Nanny Zhang as if he was thinking hard about whether or not to believe her.
Right then, Zack and Nathaniel's confrontation was almost at its end, and it was clear that Zack was at an obvious disadvantage.
Thus, Nanny Zhang couldn't wait any longer and she hurriedly said, "If you hurry up and take me to get the ring, I'll send you and mommy home to see Rita okay?"
"Really?"
Zion tilted his head and his expression showed disbelief.
"Of course! I will never lie to you.”
"All right."
Zion nodded before he reluctantly agreed. "I want mommy to stay here while both of us go and get the ring, okay? We'll come back and get mommy later.”
Zion spoke in a childish tone.
Nanny Zhang laughed internally as Zion was just a child after all. Earlier, she tried to come up with a way to convince Zion to let Mango stay behind as hostage, but Nanny Zhang was surprised when Zion came up with the idea himself.
"All right, all right, you’re in charge then."
Nanny Zhang acted obediently as if she would do anything that Zion asked, but it would be a different story when Zion gave her the ring.
Then, Zion finally relaxed before he nodded and said, "Grandma, can you drive? I don't know how to drive yet, so how about we ask her to drive the car for us?"
He pointed to Sisi.
However, Nanny Zhang just said with a smile, "I know how to drive, so just tell me where to go and I’ II drive us there." "Then let's go."
After that, Zion turned around and got into the backseat of the car.
"My teacher said that children aren't supposed to sit in the passenger seat, so I'll be in the backseat."
Right now, Mango was extremely puzzled at Zion’s good behavior.
What on Earth was this little brat doing?
Didn’t he know how dangerous it is?
However, Nanny Zhang was very pleased with Zion because she felt that children should behave like him.
Then, she smiled gleefully as she got into the car before she glanced at Sisi. Nanny Zhang's glare clearly instructed Sisi to guard Mango carefully, and perhaps Sisi should kill Mango when the time was right.
Obviously, Mango sensed the meaning behind Nanny Zhang's glance, but right now the person that she was most concerned about was Zion.
"Zion!"
Mango wanted to follow them, but Sisi immediately stopped her.
"Behave yourself!"
Sisi’s grip was strong and merciless. Mango felt like her arm was going to break but alas, she failed to free herself from Sisi.
Right now, Mango felt very incompetent.
Her son was in danger but she couldn't do anything, and Mango hated herself greatly in this situation.
Meanwhile, Nathaniel was distracted by Zion. Hence, Zack managed to punch him so hard that Nathaniel collapsed onto the ground, and his nose bled instantly.
"Nathan!"
Mango shouted nervously.
Nevertheless, Sisi just held Mango and sneered as she said, "Just wait and see what'll happen next. Now the two of you will know what it feels like to face death."
Mango was still unable to break free from Sisi and she said angrily, "You'll pay for this, I'm sure you’ll get bad karma one day!"
"Those are the words of incompetent people, but where is your so-called karma now? If karma was real, then why did Newell and I suffer for so many years? You’re nothing but a spoiled rich lady, so you wouldn't understand our hardships, and you even crushed what little hope we had. Mango, someone like you would never understand our struggles."
Sisi' s facial features twisted into a vicious expression.
Nevertheless, Mango had no intention of speaking to Sisi anymore. There was no point in talking anymore because Sisi couldn't be reasoned with.
Perhaps Sisi had never been herself after Newell died.
Mango looked nervously at Nathaniel. After he was struck by Zack, Nathaniel was in a lot of pain but he had no time to recover as Zack continued to attack.
Thus, Nathaniel could only begin to defend himself.
