The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 315

Then, Mango quickly picked up the phone when she saw that the call was from Nathaniel.

To be honest, she felt rather uneasy as Nathaniel had called her during this nerve-wracking time.

"Nathan? What's wrong?"

There was a hint of urgency in Mango's voice.

As he heard this, Nathaniel whispered, "Are you nervous?"

"Yeah, a little. After all, it's my first time being directly involved in something like this."

Obviously, Mango saw no point in hiding her feelings from Nathaniel.

There were no secrets between the both of them. Moreover, he was the one that taught her all of this, so it would be strange if she kept anything from him.

After that, Nathaniel replied softly, "Do you need me to be there with you?"

"No, I'm fine."

Mango rejected the offer right away, which disappointed Nathaniel somewhat.

"Wow, you've gotten good at refusing me out rightly!"

"Ahem!"

Hence, Mango couldn't help but clear her throat and say, "You know I don't mean it like that. I care about you, and I don't want you to exhaust yourself."

"I know."

Nathaniel's mouth quirked up slightly into a smile.

He obviously knew how much Mango cared about him. Frankly, he just wanted to tease her to ease her anxiety.

"Don't worry about Sisi. Although it's been a while, it takes patience to deal with this. Sisi has been trained since she was a child, so she wouldn't blow her cover no matter what happens. Plus, nothing will happen as she still has strong feelings for Newell."

However, Mango sighed when she heard Nathaniel's reply. "Don't you think that we're going too far with this? We're using Sisi's feelings to threaten her into doing what we want, and frankly I'm quite uncomfortable with that."

"Ah, you're way too much of a softie."

Nathaniel had long expected that Mango would act like this. After all, this was her first time getting involved in something like this, so it was natural for her to want a happy ending for everyone. Alas, not everything in life could go her way.

Honestly, Mango knew that her mindset was wrong, but she was only being honest with Nathaniel about her true feelings towards the situation.

"I'm fine, I'm just a little uncomfortable with it."

"You'll get used to it eventually."

Nathaniel replied faintly before the sound of a phone ringing reached her ears.

Because of that, Mango paused for a moment before she started to become anxious again.

"Is that news from Sisi?"

"I'll hang up first and check it out. I'll let you know in a bit."

After he finished speaking, Nathaniel cut the call.

As the dial tone rang in her ears, Mango felt extremely anxious.

Did their plan work?

Did Nanny Zhang suspect anything?

In fact, Madam Hans, Madam Ye and everyone's lives were at stake here.

Hence, Mango waited anxiously for the news.

Meanwhile, Madam Hans was still unconscious and her breathing was steady. However, to Mango, this was plain torture.

Just as she was about to lose it, Nathaniel finally called her.

"Mango, something's happened to Sisi so I might have to go check it out."

Nathaniel's voice sounded quite grim over the phone.

Then, Mango's heart sank at the news.

"Didn't you say Sisi was professionally trained since youth? You said that nothing would happen to her."

"It's not a big deal, okay? Relax, I'll, go check it out. Don't worry, I'll make sure that Madam Hans will be fine."

Nathaniel's words caused Mango's chest to clench nervously.

"Tell me what's going on and I'll go. You should stay in the hospital."

Mango suggested.

"No way in hell!"

Naturally, Nathaniel immediately refused her.

He knew the extent of Mango's capabilities, so he would never let Mango put herself at risk.

Nevertheless, Mango knew that Nathaniel was unfit to go as well.

She was worried about Nathaniel, and she was very concerned that this might be a trap.

However, she knew that she wouldn't be able to win an argument against Nathaniel no matter what she said.

As Mango thought of this, she suddenly cried out in pain and this frightened Nathaniel so badly that he quickly asked her.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, it's just that my stomach is suddenly aching for no reason. God knows where Terrance and my mother have gone, but I can't leave my grandmother's side. So, do you think you could come here on the way to see Sisi? I'd like you to get some things for me."

Mango's voice sounded a little weak.

Hence, Nathaniel suddenly became anxious.

"What do you need? I'll get it for you right away."

"I need pads. I think I may be on my period."

Mango's reply was very soft, and it even had a hint of embarrassment.
