The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 475

Rainie had a very stern expression on her face, and it seemed like she would never let Mango out no matter what.

Mango sighed before saying, "Fine, I'll tell you. Rita and Zion are going back to kindergarten today, and I want to send them off personally. I know that I don't look too good physically, but wouldn't I embarrass them if I don't get nicer clothes to wear?"

Rainie glared at Mango as she spoke, "Do you think anyone will harass your kids with how beautiful you look?"

"Whatever. You won't understand what it's like to be a mother until you have children. So hurry up and get the discharge papers done!"

Then Mango immediately pushed Rainie out of the room.

Rainie wanted to reject her request, but she asked Genevieve whether Mango could be discharged in her current condition.

At that time, Mango summoned Thomas.

"Mrs. Ye, what can I do for you?"

Mango looked at Thomas seriously and she said, "Do you have a way to take Rainie with you away from Ocean City for a while?" Thomas was rather shocked at her request.

"What happened, Mrs. Ye?"

Thomas was an extremely intuitive man, and he could sense that Mango was hiding something from everyone. But since she refused to tell anyone, he wasn't about to ask her either. However, Thomas had to inquire about it now as it concerned moving Rainie out of the city.

Mango glanced at Thomas before she replied softly, "Something's happened to Nathan which I can't explain to you now. He's coming back today, and the both of us are going to run some errands. If Rainie stays, it will be dangerous for her, so I want you to take her away."

"But I'm Mr. Ye's assistant, so I can't leave. I can promise you I will place Rainie in a safe location, but I will return here."

"Thomas."

Mango suddenly cut in.

"I know how loyal you are to Nathaniel, but you need to listen to me if you really care about us. Take good care of Rainie, and leave everything in Ocean City behind for now. Once the matter is settled, Nathan will contact you. All you need to do is lay low for a moment and take Rainie away, okay? It'll make things much easier for Nathan."

In the end, Thomas could do nothing but nod since Mango was so persistent.

"It's not an issue for me to bring her away, but what if you run into danger when we leave?"

"That won't happen. I've already informed Merle, and he'll be here to protect me."

Mango's words made Thomas feel a little more at ease.

"Shouldn't I pick up Mr. Ye then?"

"That won't be necessary as I'll do it instead. I'll be going out shopping with Rainie in a moment, so please come up with an idea to take her away after we're done. Just tell her that it was all my idea and I need her to help me from another side. Tell her that you have no idea what happened as I refused to tell you, and I forbid her from asking as well. Thomas, I'm leaving Rainie in your hands, and I won't ever forgive you if any harm comes to her. After all, she's my best friend."

Mango was reluctant for Rainie to leave, but her best friend couldn't stay either.

Right now, Ocean City was a very uncertain and dangerous place.

Even Nathaniel could be silently attacked by others, so who was to say that Rainie wouldn't be harmed as well?

After all, plenty of people knew how close she was to Rainie.

Despite his reluctance to leave, Thomas had no choice but to agree as he spotted Mango's grave expression.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Ye, I will take care of her. She is my girlfriend and my future wife, and I will protect her with my life. However, do not hesitate to call me if you or Mr. Ye needs my help."

"Don't worry, your aid will always be crucial to Nathan."

After finishing her instructions, Mango bid Thomas farewell before Rainie returned to the room.

She took advantage of Rainie's absence to write her a letter before shoving it hastily into Thomas's hands.

"Let her read this after you've taken her away."

"I will!"

After she settled everything, Mango sat on the bed and waited.

Nathaniel had told her that he would return at half-past ten in the morning.

It was now seven o'clock, so she could make it to the kindergarten if the both of them went shopping.

This was their first day back at kindergarten, so Mango didn't want to be absent.

Madam Ye had found this kindergarten through her connections, and it was an elite school.

According to Mrs. Shen, Rita was overjoyed to know that she would be attending a preschool soon.

Mango couldn't help but laugh when she imagined her daughter's cheerful expression.

When Rainie returned to the ward, she spotted Mango giggling like a fool.

"What are you thinking about? You're smiling so widely."

"I'm thinking about Rita, actually. That girl did not have many friends since her birth, and she's absolutely ecstatic to attend kindergarten."

Mango's words made Rainie pause for a moment before she asked, "You've contacted your mother?"

"Yeah, I can't keep this a secret from my mother forever, so I told her that I've been hospitalized due to an illness. But I did tell her that I'm better now and not to worry about me.

"Mrs. Shen must have lectured you, right?" Rainie knew that Mango would never disclose the kidnapping incident in fear of worrying her mother, but Mrs. Shen would definitely nag Mango.

"You know my mother better than me."

Mango smiled and she said little.

After that, both of them underwent discharge procedures.
