The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 422

Madam Hans found Andrea more and more to her liking.

"Good girl! You have suffered too much on our account! I thought we could give you a better life in the Hans family, but you've been bullied ever since you joined us. It's all my fault, I failed to protect you. Even if we have to die here together, we cannot back down from these evil people."

Madam Hans glared hatefully at Mango when she was done talking.

Mango watched the interaction between the two of them, and she smiled sarcastically.

"What a heartwarming scene. But you wouldn't have to pretend in front of me, Andrea. Because I can see right through your bullsh*t! If you intend to die here today, I can grant you your last wish."

Mango beckoned four or five men dressed in black tactical gear to approach.

"Yes Madam!"

"Carry these idiots away! Remember not to allow them to commit suicide by biting their tongues or anything like that. I don't want the blame to fall on us."

"Yes Madam!"

Andrea seemed to waver as the men closed in on her.

"Are you going to stand there and let Mango have her way, Nathaniel? She's part of the Ye family now, and if anything goes wrong today, you won't get away with it either. Think about it, all the years of hard work by yourself and Madam Ye, and the future of your children...Are you going to risk it all for this crazy b*tch?"

Nathaniel must be crazy too, Andrea thought.

Despite Mango causing such a ruckus, all he did was to stand in a corner quietly. Did he want to watch Mango brought ruin to the Hans family?

Nathaniel scoffed and he said, "Mango is my wife, and as her husband, I must support her in all her endeavors. She can do whatever she wants if you ask me. Forget the Ye family, if my wife desires the stars in the sky, I'll pluck them down for her. So what's the puny Hans family when compared to that? Even if we decide to level your house today, so what?"

Madam Hans was shocked at Nathaniel's insolence.

She coughed before choking back her rage as Andrea comforted her.

"Don't get too angry, Grandma, I'm worried for you!"

Andrea's eyes were brimming with tears that would fall at any moment.

Mango was moved by Nathaniel's declaration of love and she looked at him deeply for a moment, before turning her attention back to Madam Hans, "I'll say this one more time, give me what I want and I will leave this instant and to never return. I will overlook all the sins of the Hans family too if you obey my wishes," Mango bellowed.

"I don't know what the hell you're yapping about. Did you think you would get away scot-free, Mango? After everything you've done in our home, and the paltry tricks your husband has pulled on our business empire? I don't think so. If I lost my life here today, you and the Ye family will surely be condemned!"

Madam Hans was ready to go all out.

No matter what, she was not going to let Mango walked out unscathed.

Mango hesitated when she saw how resolute Madam Hans was.

Was she really going to do this?

But there was no way to find out Rita's condition if she did not barge in.

She was conflicted.

Nathaniel was behind her now and he reached one hand around her waist, then he said, "We can't stop you if you want to commit suicide here Madam Hans, but we're not leaving until we get what we want. So please accept my apologies in advance. Let's go, boys! Search the house!"

"How dare you!"

Madam Hans cared about the Hans family reputation more than anything else.

If Nathaniel was allowed to rampage across their home like this, what dignity was there left for the Hans family? Was this the end of the Hans family honor?

Just as the siege had come to a stalemate, Terrance arrived.

"What the hell is going on here? Mango, Nathan, we're a family after all, surely we can talk this out? How did it get so out of hand?"

Terrance's return gave Madam Hans some confidence.

"Terrance, look what they've done to an old lady like me, and still they insist on barging into our home! See for yourself how your darling niece is behaving! You tell me that she's a kind soul and that she would never do such a thing, but take a look at this again!

How are you going to explain her actions here today?"

Madam Hans wailed and she flailed around as if she had not a shred of dignity left.

Terrance was rather annoyed by his mother's crying before saying, "Alright mom, stop crying, maybe there's some kind of misunderstanding here."

"Uncle, there's no misunderstanding at all. Mango came all the way here to threaten us and now she wants to trespass into our home. Are we, the Hans family the kind that will let just anybody waltz into our home? We live in a civilized society, so where's the justice in this?"

Andrea fanned the flames intently.

Mango and Nathaniel said nothing as they watched the drama unfolded.

Terrance was astonished that Mango and Nathaniel had taken such drastic measures.

"Mango, Nathan, tell me why you're here today? Surely you did not bring all these men here just to visit my mother?"
