"Charlotte!"
Mango couldn't help but shove the manager aside and she ran up the stairs frantically.
Meanwhile, Thomas followed closely behind her.
The manager wanted to stop them, but Nathaniel coldly said, "You'd better think of the consequences of going against the Ye Family."
These words made the manager freeze on the spot and he did not dare to move a single muscle.
Regardless of whether it was the Ye Family or the Song Family, he couldn't afford to offend either one of them. Hence, he could only watch as Nathaniel followed Mango up to the second floor.
At that moment, Mango was extremely nervous for Charlotte.
She heard her best friend's screams get increasingly more intense as she ascended the stairs, and she was so anxious that her heart was pounding violently in her chest.
The Song family's bodyguards stopped Mango the moment they arrived on the second floor.
"Who are you? This area is off limits, get out of here!"
As soon as the bodyguard finished speaking, Thomas immediately threw a left hook and sent the bodyguard crashing to the ground.
Then, the other bodyguards quickly surrounded Thomas when they saw that.
However, Thomas was fuelled by pure rage as he struck out at them without a second thought.
After Thomas made his move, Mango immediately slipped past the guards. Then, the sight in front of her nearly drove her insane with anger.
In the spacious corridor, several men surrounded Charlotte, who was pinned to the ground by Walter. Her body was totally devoid of clothing, except for her underwear.
The expression on Walter's face was one of insanity and he ferociously bellowed at Charlotte, "I swear to God that I'll punish you today! You want to defy me, am I right? Well, let's see what you'll do once I ravage you in front of all these people!"
"Walter Song, I'll never f*cking forgive you if you do this! Not even when I'm dead!"
Charlotte wept as she shrieked and she tried to scratch Walter with her hands. Unfortunately, her limbs were held down by the men around her and she looked extremely vulnerable.
Hence, Mango's blood boiled with the white-hot fury.
"Walter Song, you'd better f*cking stop right now!"
Mango bellowed angrily, but Walter didn't have a shred of rationality left in him. He had never been treated this way by any woman in his entire life, and he forgot that the woman in front of him was Mango's best friend.
When the other men heard Mango's angry yelling, they turned and smiled after they saw how strikingly beautiful she was.
"Yoohoo! Here comes another beautiful girl, guess we're getting lucky today, boys!"
Two of the men let go of Charlotte as they spoke and they headed straight for Mango instead.
When Charlotte heard Mango's voice, she wept even harder.
"Stay away! Leave me! All of them are f*cking b*stards! Just go, Mango! Leave!"
Charlotte was worried that Mango would end up getting hurt.
She felt regret for her previous actions and she shouldn't have angered Walter despite knowing that she was just a regular girl. Alas, why did she lose control of her temper and end up fighting with this spoiled rich kid?
Now, she might end up implicating Mango in this mess as well.
Then, the thought of Nathaniel and Mango's relationship crossed her mind and she really hated herself for causing so many problems for Mango.
Then, Charlotte looked up at the ferocious man looking down on her for a moment before she viciously smashed her head into Walter's face.
"You piece of sh*t!"
Charlotte put all of her strength into the headbutt, not even caring that she was almost naked. Hence, she caught Walter off guard and he stumbled back because nose flared up in pain.
"F*ck! You really have a death wish!"
As soon as Walter felt blood gush out from his nose, his anger rose sharply.
Meanwhile, Thomas was still tussling with the bodyguards as the two brutish men approached Mango. Moreover, Charlotte was still in danger and she unable to offer her help, so Mango quickly held up her arms as she planned to use her rudimentary self-defence skills to protect herself. However, she suddenly felt herself being pulled back by a pair of strong arms.
"As long as I'm here, you don't have to lift a finger."
There was a cold and murderous edge to Nathaniel's voice.
The two men didn't recognise Mango, but they definitely recognised Nathaniel. Hence, they cowered the moment they laid eyes on him.
"Mr. Ye?"
"You buffoons should learn your place. Unfortunately, you made the mistake of disrespecting my wife!"
As he spoke, Nathaniel attacked the two men immediately.
Obviously, the two rich playboys were no match for Nathaniel, and it only took one punch to subdue both of them.
"Quick, Nathan, save Charlotte!"
Anxiety riddled every inch of Mango's body.
Nathaniel looked over and saw that Walter had grabbed Charlotte by the hair and pinned her to the wall. By now, she barely clothed and the two men next to her immediately began sexually assaulting her.
Right now, Charlotte was in a hopeless situation.
Although she never liked the children from rich families, she never thought that they would be so despicable. How could she protect herself in this situation?
In fact, Charlotte wanted to kill Walter, but unfortunately, a woman's strength was always lacking in comparison to a man. During their struggle, Walter pinned Charlotte to the floor and he was about to remove her underwear when Nathaniel immediately gave him a hard kick in the back.
Although Walter was blinded by his anger, he did not let his guard down.
Thus, he immediately threw Charlotte towards Nathaniel the moment he was about to be kicked, and he clearly used Charlotte as a human shield.
At that moment, Mango was devastated.
