The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 427

Nathaniel didn't dare to stay any longer and ran directly to the basement.

In there, Nathaniel was still busy with Susie so he was rather puzzled to see Nick rushing towards him.

"What's wrong?"

"Come out, I need to tell you something."

Obviously, Nick wouldn't say anything in front of Susie, as this woman was simply too much of a cunning fox. If Susie knew something and she used it to provoke Mango, then it would be the end for him and Nathaniel.

Susie couldn't help but curse wildly when she saw Nick.

"Nick, you son of a b*tch! My daughter had suffered so much for you, and she even bore you a son, but what did you do to her? You faked your death! You hid for five years like a dead man, and you let her suffer through life alone in the Ye family. Are you even a man?"

Nick's expression turned sour upon hearing Susie's chastising words.

"Did she have a difficult life in the Ye family? How shameless of you. If it weren't for her having our family's illegitimate son, how would the Chu family's business go on for the past five years? Do you think you’ll still be able to retain your money and status? Macy has received a lot of good from the Ye family, so if we’re picking faults, then you should ask her this. Did she really want to be my wife while she was with me?"

Nick had no desire to talk about the past, nor did he want to face Susie. It felt like he was looking into a mirror that reflected all the sins of his past, and it made him feel like an idiot.

If it wasn't for Mango's horrible mood, he wouldn't have entered the basement at all.

Now that he had met with Susie, there was even a hint of hatred in his eyes.

If it weren't for this woman's instigation and advice, Macy might never step onto the path of no return.

The loss of his son's mother was the greatest blow to the child.

And the woman in front of him was talking shamelessly. She was simply unreasonable!

Susie became even angrier when she heard Nathaniel's question.

"No matter how you put it, you married Macy, and I'm Macy's mother and your mother-in-law! Are you going to watch as your brother does this to me? Aren't you afraid that Macy will be judging you?"

"I don't even care about the opinions of the living, so do you think I care about the opinion of someone dead?"

Nick turned to leave after he said that, and he obviously did not want to speak to Susie any longer.

"Nick, you get back here! Get back here! Macy left me a message before she died, don't you want to hear it?"

Suzie's words made Nick stop in his tracks, but he did not turn around. Yet, Nick replied placidly, "She's already dead, so what's the point? You can keep her last words to yourself."

After that, Nathaniel didn't stay any longer and walked out of the basement.

Meanwhile, Susie was still yelling and cursing while Nathaniel had someone gag her.

"When you think about what you want to say to me, we can talk about it."

After saying that, Nathaniel turned and left the basement.

Susie whined, but no one paid any attention to her.

On the other hand, Nathanial followed Nick out of the basement and he asked, "What's wrong? Where is your sister-in-law?"

Then, Nick looked at him before saying, "Didn't you see the message I sent you?"

"What message?"

Nathaniel subconsciously touched his pocket with his hand, only to find that the cell phone was not on his body.

Next, Nathaniel quickly went to retrieve his phone from the car and his expression changed when he saw the text Nick had sent him.

"Did Mango come inside?"

"She did."

Nick' s reply worsened Nathaniel's expression.

He didn't know how much Mango had heard, but his heart began to tense up.

Nathaniel quickly wanted to go upstairs, but Nick stopped him before saying, "Mango said that she was tired and she went to bed with Zion. Also, Mango said that she did not want to be disturbed."

Hearing this, Nathaniel's footsteps suddenly stopped.

He checked the timestamp of the message and Nathaniel thought of his conversation with Susie at that moment. Then, his brows furrowed deeply.

"She went down to the basement. Why didn't anyone inform me?"

"I think Mango stopped them from doing so. You know better than anyone that she has the same status as you do in the family."

Nick's words got Nathaniel speechless.

Even then, he quickly went upstairs and Nathaniel twisted the doorknob of Zion's room. Yet, the door was locked from the inside.

Mango was pissed!

This was the first thing that Nathaniel realized.

He wanted to go inside to explain everything to Mango, but what could he say now?

Furthermore, Mango's attitude made it very clear that she did not want to talk to him at all.

Nathaniel had always wanted to tuck Mango to a good night’s sleep, but now that she had finally fallen asleep, he was restless instead.

Nathanial lingered at the door for a very long time before he sighed while going downstairs. After that, Nathaniel made his way to the living room and he sipped on some tea.
