Seeing Nathaniel remained silent, Mango was getting irritated.
"What the hell is going on? Say something!"
Mango grabbed Nathaniel's arm anxiously. She didn't even notice that her fingernails had scratched through Nathaniel's skin.
Nathaniel knew that Mango was worried and he said in a low voice, "They lost them."
"What do you mean?"
Mango was incredulous.
"I thought the Ye family lackeys were all specially trained? How could they lose the trail? It's just a car. How did they manage to lose sight of it?"
Mango was on the verge of fainting.
Rita was her lifeline, and now she was lost. She had thought that the Ye family were all elite footmen and they would have no trouble locating Rita. Even if they couldn't get her back, those men could at least identify her location. But what was this now?
They had lost track of Rita!
Mango could not hold it together any longer.
"There there, Mango."
"It must be the Hans family! They can evade even our staff, so it must be them! They're a family of war veterans after all, so avoiding detection is not difficult for them."
Mango's body trembled in rage.
She was bloodthirsty!
She wanted to charge into the Hans residence right now with a knife in hand to murder everyone in there!
Nathaniel was a little worried when he saw the mania in Mango's eyes.
"Listen to me Mango, we're heading there right now. If it was their doing, I won't let them go either. But you mustn't behave like this, alright? You're scaring me now!"
Nathaniel was frightened.
Mango's murderous look had him terrified.
She looked ready to do anything as long as she could get Rita back.
Mango had been triggered the last time when Zion went missing, and now it was Rita who had been kidnapped. She was far stronger now since she did not even faint, right?
Nathaniel continued to comfort Mango as he observed her every movement.
She eventually calmed down after much coaxing.
That's right.
Mango could not afford to be impulsive now. She had no clue about Rita's condition and it was important to ensure her safety first.
Nathaniel heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Mango calmed down.
They hopped into the car before heading straight to the Hans family.
Terrance was not home, but he hurried over once he heard that Nathaniel and Mango had personally come to the Hans residence. Andrea was already there barring the entrance to the house, and she denied entry to Mango.
"Sis, although you're a member of the Hans family, Grandma has already cut ties with you. What are you doing here today? Grandma is not feeling well and I won't let you disturb her."
Andrea acted as though she was the lady of the house, and this irked Mango to no end.
"Get lost!"
Mango did not bother with any pleasantries and she was upset with Andrea.
"Watch it, Mango, don't overstep your boundaries. I don't care what a good life you're leading out there, but you cannot just come here and throw your weight around! If you don't leave, I'll inform the media and then you'll be..."
"Go ahead, I'll even give you some numbers to dial and call the media over. Plus, I don't think you'll be able to stand the heat either,"
Mango interjected.
Mango was evidently determined, and her energy swept across like a hurricane, while Andrea was not prepared for her charge. Plus, she had Nathaniel and the strength of the Ye family behind her as a backup.
Andrea felt jealous beyond words, and she was almost green with envy.
How did Mango get so lucky to have the Ye family pledge all their support towards her? Yet, Andrea couldn't get anything despite her scheming and plotting.
Andrea's face darkened.
"I can't stop you if you want to go in, but I'm telling you now that Grandma is ill and she just woke up. She's very weak now. If you know anything about filial kindness, then you should not anger her."
"What if I don't care about being a good granddaughter?"
Andrea was stunned, but she smiled coolly before saying, "Well then, there's nothing I can do either, but I'll have the whole Ocean City know what you did here today."
"Bring it on."
Nathaniel immediately ordered someone to suppress Andrea once she finished speaking.
