The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 334

"You'll never have to worry about me ever again, Morn."

Mango tightly grasped Mrs. Shen hand as she spoke, and the older woman felt her chest tighten.

"All right, you better remember what you said."

Both of them chatted for a while longer before Mrs. Shen could fully calm down.

"I heard that the Hans Family had obtained a permit to reinstate your identity, so I'm guessing you'll have the documents within the next few days. You need to be filial to Madam Hans, okay? She's done us great kindness by letting you keep your surname, so please return the favour on our behalf."

Mrs. Shen's words caused a complicated emotion to arise in Mango's heart.

"I know Morn. I'll handle it."

"All right, let's not chat for too long. You're too weak for now, so just rest while I make you something good to eat."

"Thank you, morn."

Mango felt much more at ease in front of Mrs. Shen.

Although Queena was her biological mother, she barely had any contact with her over the years. Furthermore, she couldn't just accept Queena into her life at the drop of a hat.

However, Mrs. Shen was different. She was the one who raised Mango, and she genuinely wanted nothing but the best for Mango.

Hence, Mango felt upset when she saw her mother's slightly hobbled footsteps.

She owed Mrs. Shen way too much.

Not long after Mrs. Shen left, Mango leaned against the headboard and closed her eyes to rest.

She would have to make a public appearance when the Hans Family settled her identification documents. However, she had no idea how was Madam Hans condition now.

Right now, a lot of things were going through Mango's mind.

Other than that, she'd heard that Madam Ye was on the road to recovery. Since Nick had just taken the reins of the HY Group, Madam Ye didn't have the time to visit Mango because she had to help him with the transition. Nevertheless, the older woman sent Mango a lot of supplements along with a message to take it easy as she would take care of everything with Nick.

Obviously Mango knew that Madam Ye cared for her, but she just couldn't find the time.

Hence, Mango also felt like she owed Madam Ye a great deal as well.

Would it be too harsh to just leave everything behind and live somewhere else with Nathaniel?

However, Mr. and Mrs. Shen would be worried about her if she didn't leave.

Then, Mango sighed softly as she felt rather conflicted.

"Why are you sighing?"

All of a sudden, Nathaniel opened the door and entered her room.

Mango was quite surprised to see him, and she looked behind him for any sign of Rita. When she didn't find her daughter, she asked quizzically, "Where's Rita? Didn't she come with you?"

"She wore herself out with her antics, so she fell asleep. Right now, Zion and Dad are looking after her... Oh yeah, what were you sighing about?"

Nathaniel went to Mango's side and climbed into her bed after removing his shoes. After that, he pulled her into his embrace.

More than ten days had passed, but Mango's hands and feet were still very cold. This worried him greatly and it was the main reason why he wanted Mrs. Shen to stay.

Unfortunately, Madam Ye was too busy and Queena was occupied with caring for Madam Hans. Hence, the only person who could care for Mango was Mrs. Shen.

Furthermore, Mrs. Shen and Mango were very close, so the older woman would do her best to help her daughter.

After that, Nathaniel cradled Mango's hand in his arms to warm it up.

"Hey, stop. My hands are really cold, and I don't want you to feel chilly too."

Mango wanted to withdraw her hand, but Nathaniel stopped her.

"Don't worry, I'm basically a furnace. I'll warm you up."

Then, Mango smiled gently and leaned into Nathaniel's chest. After she got comfortable, she said, "I heard my dad say that you want to settle somewhere else after our vacation? Are you not planning on coming back to Ocean City?"

"Yes. We're almost thirty, but we've barely spent any time together over the years. The Ye Family is in the midst of a major upheaval, and the situation is highly unpredictable. Frankly, I just want to live peacefully with you and our children for a few years."

Nathaniel's words touched Mango.

"In that case, Morn and Nick would be even more burdened."

"Silly girl, can you stop being so considerate of other people for once? Don't you want me to spend more time with you? What's more, Rita has spent her whole life in the hospital for the past four years, so I want to let them experience the outside world. Wouldn't that be great? I've sacrificed a lot for the Ye Family over the years, so it's fine for us to step down since Nick is capable of running the show. As for my mother, she's a reasonable woman. She won't blame us for doing this."

With that, Nathaniel had assuaged all of Mango's worries, leaving her no room to retort.

"Have you made up your mind on our first destination?"

"I'll let you decide that."

Nathaniel smiled kindly at Mango as he spoke.

Then, Mango thought for a moment before she said, "How about we go to Nakasara?"

"Hmm?"

"Yeah. I heard that the scenery there is amazing."

Mango spoke with great anticipation in her voice.

To be honest, Nathaniel hadn't expected Mango to suggest Nakasara, but he nodded and replied, "Sure. As long as you're happy, anywhere is fine with me. I'll make arrangements once your confinement period is up."

"Will Thomas come with us?"

"Most likely. He's my personal assistant, not the Ye Family's assistant. Why?"

Nathaniel felt puzzled by Mango's sudden question.

Then, Mango smiled and said, "Nothing, I was just asking. Since Charlotte doesn't have a job because Walter blacklisted her, how about she come along with us?"

"You're trying to set them up, aren't you?"

"Isn't that great? What, you think that Charlotte's not good enough for Thomas?"

Mango stared at Nathaniel as if she was daring him to refute her. Hence, her actions caused Nathaniel to burst into laughter.

"Whatever you say, my lady."
