The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 310

"What's that sound?"

Mango was rather slow to react, but Queena suddenly stood up.

"Your grandmother!"

Then, Queena ran quickly towards Madam Hans's room.

Meanwhile, Mango was stunned for a moment as she didn't know what was going on.

Grandma?

She thought about it for a while before she realized that it was Madam Hans.

As the thought crossed her mind, Mango quickly followed behind Queena.

"Mom!"

Queena's voice sounded from inside the room with a hint of urgency.

Thus, Mango's chest tightened involuntarily.

She quickly opened the door and walked inside and found Madam Hans lying on the floor. The corner of her mouth and her right hand kept twitching uncontrollably and it seemed like Madam Hans had gotten a stroke.

Madam Hans was very old, but her deception previously didn't give Mango a very good impression of her. After that, Mango decided to let it go when she found out Madam Hans only did it for the sake of her own granddaughter.

However, she didn't expect that she would turn out to be Madam Hans's granddaughter as well!

"Don't move her and call the ambulance now!"

Next, Mango rushed over to help Madam Hans up.

Clearly, Madam Hans was excited to see Mango, but she wasn't able to say any words.

"Don't attempt to speak as I already know what you want to say. Grandma, I'm back. No matter what, I'm home now. I'll make sure to spend time with you in the future, okay?"

To be honest, Mango felt rather regretful.

If she'd come earlier to check on Madam Hans, would this have happened?

Meanwhile, the old woman mumbled gibberish as she tried to speak and tears flowed from her eyes.

She grasped Mango's hand tightly. Although her grip was weak, she refused to let go as if she feared that Mango would suddenly run away.

There was a meaningful look in her eyes, but unfortunately, Mango couldn't decipher it.

Queena quickly called for an ambulance before she notified Terrance and the others.

When Terrance and Nathaniel arrived at the scene, their expressions were grim and it got worse when they realized that Madam Hans may have had a stroke.

"Did you call an ambulance?"

Terrance asked Queena.

"Yes, it'll be here soon. However, Mom was feeling only a bit unwell earlier. How did it develop into something this bad?"

Queena couldn't figure it out, but she was very worried about Madam Hans.

On the other hand, Nathaniel gently grasped Mango's shoulder and asked, "Are you all right?"

"I'm fine."

In fact, Mango's heart was very heavy.

After the ambulance arrived, Mango and Queena boarded it along with Madam Hans while Terrance and Nathaniel followed behind them in their own car.

Soon after, Madam Hans was sent to the emergency room.

Terrance and Queena waited nervously outside, while Nathaniel pulled Mango to the side.

"What's wrong?"

Mango's heart was filled with a complicated mix of emotions.

The person lying inside the emergency room was her biological grandmother!

Decades had passed, but she never knew that she still had a grandmother in this world.

Madam Hans had lost her son and husband very early, and she got a stroke just as her family was about to be reunited once more.

This made Mango feel rather uncomfortable when she thought about it.

It shouldn't end like this!

Madam Hans had worked hard throughout her life, and both her son and husband had sacrificed themselves to serve the country. Now that she was in her golden years, she was unable to witness her family's reunion before she fell ill once more.

Then, Nathaniel pulled Mango into his arms and whispered, "I'm sorry."

"What are you talking about? Illness and death is part of life, but I just feel rather regretful. If I knew that Madam Hans would turn out like this, I would've gone to see her earlier."

Mango's voice was filled with regret as she said this.

Honestly, she felt like she had been very unfilial indeed.

After Mango returned from the United States and found out about her true identity, she had actually been avoiding the truth. She had no idea how to face the Hans Family or Madam Hans, nor did she know how to accept her newfound identity.

In truth, Mango knew that the Hans Family was awaiting her return but she didn't want to bring up the subject first.

But now, Madam Hans had gotten a stroke. If she ended up being paralysed forever, how would Mango ever forgive herself?

Thus, Mango felt guilty as she blamed herself for everything and this made Nathaniel's heart ache for her.

"This wasn't an accident. Someone deliberately did this to Madam Hans!"

Nathaniel said these words very softly so that only Mango could hear.

Then, she paused suddenly before she raised her head to look at Nathaniel.

"Did my grandmother's stroke have anything to do with you and Terrance visiting Nanny Zhang?"

Mango was definitely smarter than most people gave her credit for.
