The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 380

Madam Hans's expression immediately darkened when she heard Mango question.

She couldn't hit Mango again, could she?

Furthermore, true panic set in when she saw the hatred in Mango's eyes. She felt as if she'd crossed the line, but as an elder, she couldn't bring herself to admit her fault to Mango.

Truly, she was at a loss. However, Madam Hans harrumphed coldly and replied, "You'd better remember what you said. From now on, the Hans Family has nothing to do with you."

"I will definitely keep it in mind. Thank you for your lashes today, Madam Hans."

Mango helped Nathaniel out of the mansion after she said that.

Even though Madam Hans placed a gag order on everyone, someone still managed to get the message to Terrance.

Because of that, Terrance hurried back home, but it was too late. He couldn't be bothered to speak to Madam Hans when he saw the blood on the whip, and he hurriedly called Mango and Nathaniel.

When Mango saw that Terrance was calling, she didn't think twice before blocking him.

Instead of being angry, she just wanted nothing to do with any member of the Hans Family.

Hence, Nathaniel realised that she was truly hurt and muttered, "Enough, stop being so mad. I'm fine, really. This whole affair was Zion's mistake, so I should take responsibility for it as his father right?"

"I'm sorry I dragged you into this. Previously, I thought that I could help you by returning to the Hans Family, but now it seems like it's the opposite instead. The Hans Family has caused you much trouble."

Right now, Mango really wanted to cut all ties with the Hans Family.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel knew exactly what Mango was thinking about.

Then, he held Mango's hand and whispered, "Life is short, so why should you get mad at those irrelevant people? It's good that all of this is over."

"I just feel like marrying me was the biggest mistake in your life."

This was what Mango truly felt in her heart.

"Nonsense. Marrying you was the best thing that I've ever done."

Nathaniel's words made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Meanwhile, Terrance tried to call Nathaniel as he couldn't get through to Mango’s phone. Unfortunately, Nathaniel hung up on him too.

Hence, he suddenly realised that the Hans Family and the Ye Family could no longer peacefully coexist together.

"Are you happy now? There are only three prominent families in Ocean City, us, the Ye Family and the Song Family. Now that you've ruined things with the Ye Family, do you plan to make us sitting ducks?"

Truth be told, Terrance rarely lost his temper at Madam Hans, but he couldn't hold it in this time.

In fact, the old lady felt like she might have overdone it this time, but it was not Terrance's place to lecture her.

"So be it then. If Mango didn't have the Ye Family, would she dare bully us like this?"

"Who's doing the bullying here? You've gone and f*cked it up, mom! Let's see if you'll regret exiling your granddaughter!"

Terrance was so pissed off that he just dropped everything and left by using his company as an excuse to go abroad. He told everyone that it was for a project, but the real reason was that he didn't want to spend any more time with Madam Hans, lest he burst a blood vessel out of anger.

Originally, Madam Hans had already been very dissatisfied with Mango. Now that Terrance had left her alone in Ocean City because of Mango, she hated her granddaughter even more.

As expected, she was the one who ruined the Hans Family!

On the other hand, Mango had no idea of the major argument that went on between Terrance and Madam Hans as they quickly returned to the Ye's Mansion.

When Madam Ye saw the blood oozing out of Nathaniel's back, she exclaimed, "What happened? Why are you injured?"

Then, Zion quickly raised his head.

However, Nathaniel waved his hand and said, "It's alright. Madam Hans said that ten lashes was the price of settling this issue. It's just a flesh wound, nothing serious at all."

However, Madam Ye flew into a rage the moment she heard that.

"Wow, that old hag has some nerve! Even I have never physically punished my son, but she dares to whip you? I'm going to demand an explanation from her!"

Alas, Nathaniel quickly stopped his agitated mother.

"Mom, enough. Besides, it was Zion's fault. He went and destroyed someone's home, so I should take responsibility as his father. I can't let her hit Zion, can I? Let's not talk about this anymore. I'm fine, I just need some ointment."

Nathaniel's words made Zion's expression become grim.

Although Nathaniel was wearing a shirt, the blood still seeped through the thin fabric.

Hence, Zion did not expect that he would have caused so much trouble just because he wanted to avenge his mother.

"Daddy, I'm sorry."

This time, Zion really knew that he made a mistake.

Then, Nathaniel smiled at his sullen-looking son. "It's fine, your father is tough. Alright, go and rest for a bit before dinner. Stop standing there."

Meanwhile, Madam Ye said concernedly, "Even though you're taking the punishment for your son, this is too much. Madam Hans is inhumane." "Enough mom, I'm starving. Go and check if the kitchen is done preparing our food, we'd really like to eat."

After that, Nathaniel pushed Madam Ye into the kitchen.

Mango stayed silent because she was embarrassed, and she didn't know what to say. Meanwhile, Nathaniel took charge and never mentioned her at all, which made her even sadder.
