The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 300

"What happened?"

Mango had been awoken by the commotion outside so she'd stepped out and asked around, only to find that the noise originated from Edolie's room. Hence, she was so frightened that she made her way there quickly.

She would've ignored it normally, but she couldn't afford to have anything happen to Edolie right now.

Just as Mango asked this question, Zion burst into tears.

"Mommy, I've been bullied by a nasty woman!"

Zion's voice startled Mango as she quickly pushed through the crowd to find that Zion's face was swollen.

Then, Mango's expression changed.

"Who the hell did this?"

She had always been reluctant to hit her son ever since he was born, but who had the gall to hit him so badly?

Nathaniel's heart ached when he saw Mango coming.

"Mango, leave this matter to me. You can head back first."

It was only then that Mango realized that both Nathaniel and Madam Ye were present. Moreover, Madam Ye's eyes held a look of avoidance and embarrassment.

Then, Mango immediately understood what had happened.

She turned her head abruptly to look at Edolie.

"Did you do this?"

The look in Mango's eyes scared Edolie and she involuntarily shrank backward. However, she recalled that she had an agreement with Mango and she had just saved Mango's daughter. Moreover, she just splashed Mango's face with hot water. It was a small matter, right?

Even then, Mango didn't do anything to her nor did she have the bravery to tell Nathaniel and Madam Ye what actually happened.

As she thought of this, Edolie pretended to be calm and she said, "I didn't know he was your son, but I hit him because he was the one who disturbed my wound first. Furthermore, I just saved your daughter, you..."

Before Edolie could finish her sentence, Mango had stepped forward and slapped her across the face with a loud smack.

Her movements were so quick and accurate that it shocked everyone present, especially Madam Ye and Nathaniel. However, Edolie was stunned.

"How dare you hit me? Mango, I just saved your daughter!"

Edolie couldn't help but raise her voice at Mango.

Alas, Mango's expression was cold as she raised her hand and she slapped Edolie repeatedly until her own hand became numb.

Meanwhile, Edolie was frozen in shock.

She hadn't expected Mango to be so vicious as the Mango that she had known from before would never do something like this.

Then, Mango said after she finished hitting Edolie, "It's true that you saved my daughter, so I'm very grateful to you, and the entire Ye Family as well. However, what right do you have to beat my son? Are my children your punching bags? I tolerated it when you splashed hot water in my face not because I'm scared of you, but it's because you saved my daughter. But, I'm warning you not to push my limits. My son and daughter are equally important to me, so don't think you can hit my son just because you donated a kidney to my daughter. Your kidney is only worth a few hundred thousand on the black market, but I'll give you a million dollars to get the hell out of Ocean City! If not, don't blame me for venting out my anger on you!"

Edolie couldn't stand it anymore when she heard the finality in Mango's words.

"Hey, we had an agreement! I told you before this that I don't want money, I only want Nathaniel to accompany me for three months. You promised me that you won't see or contact him over those three months! Why would I donate my kidney to your daughter otherwise? It doesn't matter to me if she's dead or alive!"

Then, Nathaniel was stunned by Edolie's words.

He had never thought that Mango would agree to Edolie's request.

No wonder Edolie had agreed to donate her kidney

to Rita.

At the same time, Madam Ye's expression soured.

She had always thought that Edolie had done it out of kindness, but she never expected Edolie to do so because she wanted Nathaniel instead.

Madam Ye also thought Mango was exaggerating this petty issue. As it turned out, Edolie had planned this all along.

Meanwhile, Mango felt Nathaniel's lingering gaze on her. Amidst all the emotions in his eyes, anger dominated the rest.

Hence, she knew that Nathaniel must be furious right now.

No one would want to be traded like an object, much less between husband and wife.

However, Mango didn't have time to care about that now.

Her children were her bottom line and she could definitely tolerate Edolie's antics, but as a mother, she couldn't condone this.

Mango looked at Edolie indifferently and said, "You still want to negotiate with me? How are you going to make up for the fact that you hit my son?"

"There's nothing wrong with him, is there? I just hit him a few times, so that's nothing compared to me donating my kidney."

Then, Edolie's thoughtless words caused Madam Ye to shake her head gently.

This girl was hopeless!

It was fortunate that she hadn't gone to the Shen family yet, if not she wouldn't have known how to explain this situation to them.

After that, Nathaniel spoke.

"How can an outsider like you touch my son? Let's not mention the fact that my son hadn't done anything wrong, and even if he did, it would be a privilege for you to touch him! Just like Mango said, well give you a million and I'll add another two million for you to get out of Ocean City as soon as possible! From this day forwards, there will be no ties between you and the Ye Family!"

"No!"

Edolie instantly became agitated.

"No? You should know that if you didn't save my daughter, I would have cut off both your hands just for hitting my son!"

Nathaniel's words were not empty threats as he really planned to do that.
