The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 435

Mango clenched her fists tightly and didn't tell Nathaniel about it. As for why she didn't say it, she didn't know. But at this moment, she subconsciously concealed it.

Nathaniel realized that her expression was not very good and he thought that she was in pain due to falling down.

"Let me see if you've knocked anywhere. The children these days are so rash. You have to stay away from them in the future as they are different from our Zion."

Nathaniel checked Mango thoroughly. When he saw that she had just fallen down and not injured, he let out a sigh of relief.

"How about I carry you into the car?"

Nathaniel's words stunned Mango for a moment.

He rarely did this. If it was in the past, Mango would probably have been very happy. However, that hurdle in her heart had yet to disappear. She said in a low voice, "No need, I can do it myself."

As she spoke, she put her hand into her pocket to hide the note.

Seeing her like this, Nathaniel said nothing more.

"Let's go home, or shall we go out for food?"

"Let's go back. I haven't eaten home-cooked meals by my parents for a long time."

Then, she raised her legs while walking towards the car.

Nathaniel followed her behind, but his face still looked displeased.

The two of them got in the car again and still did not speak.

Nathaniel drove the car back and he stopped at the Shen family's entrance. Then, he heard Mango say, "I won't keep you any longer. Be careful while driving. Goodbye."

After that, Mango opened the door and she got out of the car. Then, she walked to the Shen family's house without looking back.

Nathaniel felt uncomfortable as if something was swallowed in her heart.

Being neglected by his wife had him felt like a wanker or even more?

Nathaniel looked at her when she closed the door. She did not intend to let him in. So, he stepped on the accelerator to drive the car away angrily.

When he returned to The Ye's Mansion, his heart was full of emptiness. Hence, he couldn't help driving the car to the club.

After arriving at the leisure club, Nathaniel called several friends, including Noah.

"What's wrong? Look at you, having a quarrel with your wife with such a listless look?"

As soon as Noah sat down, she began to tease Nathaniel.

Nathaniel glared at Noah. Then, Nathaniel continued on drinking and he didn't say anything.

"Hey, hey, hey, did you call me here to see you drink?"

Noah grabbed Nathaniel's glass.

This was the first time that Noah had seen Nathaniel trying to forget his problem by getting drunk.

"You're being serious? So you are perplexed by love? Where is the once free and easy guy named Nathaniel?"

"You don't understand."

Nathaniel finally said something, but his voice was a little hoarse.

"I don't understand? It must be your wife can't stand your arrogance."

Noah's words made Nathaniel stunned.

"I'm arrogant?"

"Aren't you arrogant? You used to belittle the entire Ocean City, isn't it? Plus, your family has frequently been at the top ranking in Ocean City, and everyone always compliments you. Besides, you often fight hard in everything which leads you to be the top scorer. Hence, this has also led you to keep a mindset of whatever you did is always right and you have also been used to doing things in this way. But, have you ever thought that your style of handling problems is imposing stress on the people around you, especially those who are close to you."

Noah said with a tinge of emotion.

Nathaniel looked at him and asked puzzledly, "Is it wrong for me to start from the most fundamental problem to protect her?"

"Have you ever asked about her opinion? Your wife is not your accessory, and you cannot do whatever you want. They have their ideas and thoughts. Have you asked about her views? You might think that you are doing it for her sake, but did you consider it on behalf of her?"

Nathaniel frowned slightly when Noah questioned him.

"As a man, you should set everything in order to live a carefree life for a woman. Isn't it right?"

"Then why don't you find a canary and raise it? Why do you insist on marrying a woman with a personality like Mango?"

This question stunned Nathaniel.

Seeing Nathaniel was listening attentively, Noah poured himself a glass of red wine and he continued, "A woman should be favored but it should be done accordingly. From your point of view, what you have done might be good for her but who can guarantee that you ain’t hurting her in the name of good?"

Nathaniel suddenly recalled Mango's upset expression.

When she found out that Rita was kidnapped, she was on the verge of breaking down. And, he had never come across her being so worried before. Even if Zion had gone missing, she was still fine. But, Mango lost her control when the same thing happened to Rita.

When she went to the Hans family, it was very likely that she would send the entire the Hans family into the house. The desperate look made Nathaniel feel a little scared now that she thought about it.

Had he really hurt Mango?

Nathaniel was lost in thought.

Noah stopped drinking when he saw Nathaniel's reaction. Then, Noah spoke softly, "The relationship between a husband and a wife is not as stark simple as you think. I also caught the gist of it after experiencing a lot with my missus. If you want to maintain a long- term good marriage, you have to swallow your pride and try to understand each other. Sometimes, women's thoughts might be very eccentric. And, in our point of view as men, their suggestion could be very naive and unreasonable. In contrast, this could lead to them being depressed for a long time. If you love her, you should understand her well. Don't use the name of love to hurt her. Women's hearts are very fragile as they cannot withstand such torment. They are the softest things in the world. As long as you treat her a little better, then she will be willing to risk her life for you. Be grateful to have such a person follow you in your lifetime."

Noah patted Nathaniel's shoulder seriously,

It was the first time that Nathaniel heard these words from Noah, so she inevitably looked at him a few more times.

"You seem to be different from the you I knew before."

"What's the difference? A married man is just mature."
