The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 384

Who had such a deep grudge against her? How could they frame her like this?

Alas, Mango couldn't figure it out, nor was it the right time to do so.

Then, she looked at Walter coldly and said, "Do you still think of me as your friend? Or do you think that I'm dirty too?"

"No, I believe that those photos aren't you. I really believe that you're not that kind of person."

Walter suddenly felt distressed when he looked at Mango.

This was the first time that he'd ever seen Mango so dispirited. In the past, she always had a smile on her face no matter what she faced. Only now did he realise that she was just an ordinary woman, and she had been shamed into submission.

Thus, he really wanted to hug and comfort Mango properly, but he did not dare to do so. He knew that he didn't have the rights to do that and Mango would probably never forgive him if he touched her.

After that, Walter gave her a cautious glance.

Mango thought for a moment before she said, "I need a place to stay temporarily for a few days. Except for you, no one can know about my whereabouts."

"Not even Nathaniel?"

"No, especially him. I don't want to see him anytime soon."

Walter wanted to reply to Mango's statement, but the look on her face made him shut up.

No matter what, Mango still trusted him. At this point, the way she asked him for a place to stay showed how desperate she was.

Truth be told, Walter was very upset, but he nodded quickly and said, "I have a nice place in mind, but it's in a shady neighbourhood. No one will ever think that you would be there."

"Let's go there then."

She didn't really have the rights to call herself pure and noble at that moment.

Hence, Mango only hoped that she could hide from Nathaniel there.

In fact, the last person she wanted to see right now was Nathaniel.

Then, Walter nodded quickly and said, "Are we going now or later?"

"Now."

Mango couldn't afford to wait any longer.

She couldn't go home because she had no idea if the Ye Mansion would be surrounded by the media.

When she thought of Madam Ye, who loved her dearly and taught her a lot of life lessons, she felt quite sorry for her actions. Alas, leaving the Ye Family was the only way that she could stop them from being involved.

Furthermore, Nathaniel's public marriage proposal in front of the entire Ocean City was organized by Madam Ye. However, the pride and happiness she'd felt earlier now melted into despair.

Then, Mango stood up from the floor and glanced at Walter before she asked, "Do you have a printer here?"

"Yeah!"

"Take me to it."

Walter obediently followed Mango's every command, and he was deathly afraid that something would happen to her.

There was something very wrong with her today, but he didn't understand what.

Despite the incessant ringing of Walter's phone, he still ignored it as all his attention was focused on Mango.

After that, Mango walked to the computer and opened up a blank document before she started typing a divorce agreement.

On the other hand, Walter was shocked when he saw the document.

"Mango, what are you doing? What problems are you facing that you need to file for divorce?"

"Are you afraid Nathaniel will cause trouble for you?"

Mango's voice was as calm as at a stagnant pool of water, which distressed Walter even more.

It seemed like the lively, bubbly Mango from the past was lost forever.

Hence, Walter felt quite upset.

He would rather have the old Mango back even if she wasn't by his side. It was way better to deal with seeing her happy with Nathaniel, instead of seeing this broken shell of a woman that she'd become.

"I'm not afraid at all! Nathaniel's been picking a fight with me for a long time, so what do I have to be afraid of? Furthermore, he wouldn't do anything to me, but I'm just worried about you. Mango, life is too hard to be spent alone, you know? What's going on that you need to file for divorce? Do you think that Nathaniel will agree to this?"

"It's not up to him to disagree."

Mango's heart was ripped to shreds and her entire body started to quiver.

"Those photos are plastered all over the internet, and I'm sure the entire Ocean City has seen it. I've been labelled as a whore. If I don't divorce him, what will happen to the Ye Family? What will happen to my children? I won't implicate anyone else as long as I divorce him!"

Hence, Mango's words stunned Walter.

"How is that possible? Nathaniel deleted all those photos, so how did they get posted online? Who did this?"

"I'll tear whoever did this into pieces!"

Then, Mango's eyes narrowed and anger flashed across her eyes.

Before Walter could say anything else, Mango had started to draft the divorce agreement once again.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel received Thomas' call while he was speaking to Noah.

"Mr. Ye, I have bad news. Something terrible has happened."

"What's wrong? Why are you so flustered despite working for me throughout the years? Is the sky falling? Why are you so panicked?"

Nathaniel was in a good enough mood to joke with Thomas, and he even stretched lazily after he finished speaking to Noah.

Upon hearing Nathaniel's words, Thomas replied anxiously, "Mr. Ye, you need to get on the computer now. I think all the media platforms in Ocean City is about to collapse."

"What's the matter?"
