The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 431

Rita was left behind and realized that he seemed to have done something wrong.

She followed Mango from behind obediently. However, she would look occasionally at Zion who was shedding tears before asking Mango softly, "Mom, did I do something wrong?"

"No, Rita is very obedient."

Mango picked up Rita and she left the living room with her luggage in her hand.

Thomas was already waiting outside. When he saw Mango coming out, Thomas hurried forward and he took over the luggage from her.

"Mrs. Ye, let me do it."

"Thank you."

Mango carried Rita and got into the car.

Suddenly, Rita felt that the pineapple buns in her hand were no longer delicious.

She looked at the window outside and she asked worriedly, "Mommy, when are we coming back? Zion didn't mean to lie to you. I was going against him just now, maybe his stomach is truly in pain now."

Mango stroked her daughter’s hair and she said, "Your brother is gonna be fine as Daddy is there. Why? Rita doesn't like to follow Mommy to Grandma's house?"

"No, it's just that Mommy and Daddy seem to quarrel, and Zion looks sad too. Isn’t it bad if we leave it like that?"

Rita finally understood something.

Mango said in a gentle voice, "Mommy didn't quarrel with daddy. It's just a little conflicted. Do you think your daddy and I have a fight? Hmm?"

"I guess no! I heard Xiao Hua from the kindergarten saying that her daddy and mommy quarreled every single day. Their voices were louder, and they would even hit each other! But, Mommy and Daddy don't seem to have done that."

Rita tilted her small head and tried hard to think about the concept of quarreling.

As far as she could remember, it seemed that Daddy and Mommy didn't really fight with each other.

"Yeah, that's why Daddy and Mommy didn't get into a fight."

Mango's face didn't turn red and her heart didn't race as she coaxed Rita.

Indeed, she did not quarrel with Nathaniel and it was just a cold war.

Mango was somewhat a bit sad when she thought about this. Her heart was wrenched with much emptiness.

Thomas got into the car. Just when he wanted to say something, Thomas stopped again when he heard what Mango had told to Rita.

The car drove to Shen family's house.

Rita was still struggling over the matter, but when she passed by the shop selling fried chicken, Rita snapped that she wanted to eat the drumstick. Thus, Thomas stopped his car and he went to buy it for her.

At this moment, nothing was more important than a big chicken leg.

Mango was very touched when she saw her daughter's gluttonous look.

Thank God, her daughter was fine!

At that moment, her daughter's situation seemed to have improved.

Just as Mango was waiting for Thomas with Rita in her arms, the car door was suddenly opened. Then, a man suddenly squeezed his way in and startled Mango.

Mango hugged Rita tightly and she couldn't help but ask, "Who is that?"

"It's me."

Walter took off his hat quickly.

Mango heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Walter.

"What are you doing here? You look so sneaky and others might misunderstand that there's something between you and me."

The news of the photo had spread like wildfire throughout Ocean City. Although Nathaniel had explained by using Susie's matter to the people in Ocean City, it was still unconvincing. Moreover, there were still lots of people interested in the interaction between Walter and Mango.

Hence, Mango was a bit anxious when Walter appeared out of nowhere now.

She glanced around and after ensuring that no one was looking at her, Mango breathed a sigh of relief.

Walter laughed bitterly while saying, "You are indeed afraid of having a scandal with me, aren't you?"

"No, it's just in a special period, I..."

Mango felt that she had made a big fuss too.

Previously, Mango didn't seem to have so many scruples when she stayed at Walter's casino.

Instead of saying that she was scared of others to suspect her relationship with Walter, perhaps Mango was jittery about the possibility of Nathaniel misunderstood her and got jealous.

At the thought of Nathaniel, Mango's expression turned sour.

Despite she was upset with Nathaniel for taking advantage of her child and her, Mango couldn’t help but think about him at that moment.

This kind of unsettling action made Mango very annoyed, but there was nothing she could do.

So, Walter asked her automatically upon seeing Mango’s expression, "Do you have something on your mind?"

"No, I intend to take Rita back to my mother's house for a visit. Are you looking for me? You can just call me then."

"I won't follow your car out if I can get through your phone call."

Walter's words stunned Mango a little.

She violently fumbled in her pocket, only to find that the phone was missing.

Could it be that she left it at the Ye's Mansion?

Mango was a little peeved with her absentmindedness.

"Sorry, my phone might leave me at home."

"It's fine."

Although Mango was reluctant to answer him, Walter could tell that Mango had something on her mind and she was very unhappy. However, he did not point it out. He muffled, "I can't stay here for too long. Thomas is hard to deal with and I don't want to see him either. Earlier on, I told Nathaniel that I have something to discuss with you but he didn't allow it. It's fine if it's just something ordinary, but this issue is a bit troublesome. So, I have to see you."

Upon hearing Walter's words, Mango paused for a moment.

Nathaniel didn't mention anything about Walter's meeting with him.
