The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 481

Nathaniel left the hospital instantly.

Noah knew he was worried. If it was his wife, Noah might've gone mad. However, he was relieved to find that Nathaniel was okay, and Noah would try his best to help his friend with everything else.

By the time Nathaniel returned to the Ye's Mansion, Mango had yet to wake up.

Nathaniel felt as if his heart was being slowly sliced by a blade as he gazed upon her sleeping face.

Madam Ye couldn't help but say when she saw that Nathaniel had returned so quickly, "Mango usually sleeps for two to three hours, so don't disturb her. Come down, and let's talk."

After that, Nathaniel left Mango's side and went to the study room with his mother.

"What do you think of Susie's escape?"

Madam Ye's words surprised Nathaniel for a moment before he said, "I think there must be a spy inside our family. If not, Susie wouldn't be able to escape so quietly with our level of security."

"Who do you think the mole is?"

Madam Ye looked at Nathaniel, and her gaze was piercing.

Yet, Nathaniel shook his head before saying, "I don't know."

"You don't? Do you know how many people will die because of your ignorance? Let's not talk about the company now, but your family. Can you keep them safe? Nathan, our family is embroiled in conflict and we both know that it's a bad thing for not being able to protect your own family as a man."

"I know. I'll get to the bottom of it as soon as possible."

Nathaniel also knew that he'd mishandled the matter somewhat.

Madam Ye sighed and she said, "Well, you might have a lead if I tell you about this."

"Go ahead."

"Nick has been very busy recently, and he keeps focusing on the relocation of the southern suburbs. I am wondering, does the HY Group urgently needs the land? Why does he need to relocate to the area now?"

Nathaniel frowned slightly at Madam Ye's words.

"That was planned for five years in the future, and not now. Why is Nick so anxious to do it?" "I want to know as well, and Nick often brings Wisdom out with him. He said he wanted Wisdom to gain experience, so I didn't object, but it's been ten days since I've seen Wisdom.

I don't know what Nick is doing either."

Madam Ye muttered, "You set up Susie's prison yourself, and only the Ye family knows how to operate the locking mechanism. So, if you say that the guards let her out, I wouldn't believe that at all."

"Mom, what do you mean? Are you doubting Nick?"

Nathaniel couldn't believe his ears.

Was that what Madam Ye meant?

Nick was his twin brother!

Moreover, what reason did he have to let go of Susie?

To have her plotted against Mango again?

Nathaniel couldn't figure it out, but Madam Ye wasn't one to just say things without basis. True to her word, Nathaniel had personally designed Susie's prison, and the only people who knew how to operate the locks were the Ye family.

"Where is John? Is he still alive?"

Nathaniel suddenly asked.

Madam Ye replied, "John had always been in Nick's custody, and since I haven't seen Nick for a while, do you think I'd know? Also, he happened to arrange Merle to the southern suburbs when Mango was kidnapped, and he left her defenseless. I don't know if this was a coincidence, but I don't feel at ease."

Nathaniel fell silent.

He was liable to suspect anyone, but not his brother, Nick.

How was that possible?

Five years ago, Nick had nearly died in Nakasara because of the drug deal. Now that he'd returned to the Ye family officially, how could he do something like that?

Was it possible that he'd come back to harm the Ye family as well as Nathaniel's wife?

No!

He wouldn't!

However, John had managed to obtain the drugs.

Susie and John were both lovers.

Andrea had obtained the drugs from Susie before feeding them to Madam Hans, and Nathaniel had also fallen victim to the same Ploy.

Everyone who knew that he'd stored wine at the Celestial Clubhouse was his close friends.

Obviously, Noah wouldn't do anything to him, so that just left Nick.

Did it really have something to do with him?

Suddenly, Nathaniel felt perplexed.

"Mom, I will investigate this matter thoroughly. Before I have any evidence, I don't believe Nick would do this."

"I don't believe it either. I watched him grow up, and he'd nearly sacrificed his life for our country and the Ye family five years ago. Moreover, he spent five years in service of the Dark Night Empire, so I don't believe he'd ever do anything to you."

Madam Ye sighed, and it seemed like she had aged tremendously overnight.

Although these two children were not her own, they were both the sons of the man she loved the most. Madam Ye did not want them to kill each other.

Nathaniel seemed to be very worried when he left the study.

Nick?

How could it be Nick?
