The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 505

"Haven't you heard of it?"

Nick looked at Mango in surprise. Then, he said apologetically, "Geez, look what I've done! Nathan definitely didn't want you to worry and I shouldn't have said it. It's nothing, so just ignore my words earlier."

After that, Nick turned around and he was about to leave.

Just then, Mango grabbed his hand.

"What the hell is going on? Tell me clearly."

Mango knew that it might be one of Nick's scheming plans, but she had no other choice as this matter was related to Zion. Despite that, she still had to be cautious.

Nick pretended to be flustered before saying, "Mango, since Nathan has no intention of telling you, I won't be taking the blame if anything happens to you."

"What could happen to me? Tell me quickly, what happened to Zion?"

Mango was in a bundle of nerves.

Her nervous reaction was exactly what Nick wanted.

Then, a cunning look flashed across his eyes.

"Mango, everything is not confirmed yet. We had searched all over the club but still couldn't find Zion. Then, someone said that a cleaning lady was pushing the garbage cart out, and there were two children inside. One was dead and handled by the police, while the other was probably sold to a human trafficker. It seemed like the child was taken to the train station, but there were many coaches there. So, it took a long time for us to search into it one by one. Nathan had already sent some people over to help in the afternoon, but there was still no news yet. That's why I came over to ask if he needs extra aid. After all, Wisdom is back, but Zion is still missing. I just want to help him."

Upon hearing his words, Mango almost scared out of her wits and she lost her balance.

Zion was taken to the train by a human trafficker?

Why didn't Nathaniel say anything about it?

Nick glanced at Mango's pale face and he curled his lips. Then, he said in a low voice, "Mango, don't worry. Nathan should be able to find Zion. Previously, he was missing for eight days, but didn't he come back safely as well? During that time, everyone was unable to reach him and was afraid that he'll be in danger. Unexpectedly, he returned casually, right? Still, I noticed that his expression just now didn't look quite good. Is he okay? If there's anything you guys need, feel free to tell me. After all, we're brothers, and I will always help you guys."

Mango was flustered and stunned, but she quickly reacted after hearing Nick's words.

"Nothing. His phone was broken, and he was not used to eating food from abroad. So, Nathan lost some weight after he returned."

"Really? Nathan has always been going on business trips all over the country. I didn't expect that he still dislikes food from abroad."

Nick was calmly asking the question, while Mango was quick to notice his unusual behavior and she was relatively alert.

"Who knows? He doesn't care about his health, so what can I do? Regarding Zion's issue, I'll leave it to you guys. I have to check up on Mom's condition now. She is also worried about the situation."

"Alright."

Nick didn't say anything more.

When Mango turned around to leave, she could feel the burning gaze radiating from his eyes.

He couldn't hold it in any longer, right?

What was he trying to scheme?

Mango felt that Nick's current attitude was completely different compared to when he first returned home.

Perhaps he was just faking it previously?

Or was that his true nature?

It seemed that their brotherly relationship grew distant ever since Nathaniel left Ocean City while handing over the family matters to Nick.

Now that she thought about it, Mango suddenly realized that Nick and Nathan had been getting along just like two total strangers.

Although Nick had helped Nathaniel when they were going against the Hans Family, Nick actually took advantage of the money from Nathaniel's venture capital to support HY Group.

Therefore, did that implied that both of them were already on bad terms ever since the beginning?

Mango was thinking to herself as she walked straight into Madam Ye's room.

Her mother-in-law was still under the weather. Meanwhile, Mango ordered Lucy to look after Madam Ye as she suddenly sensed that her menstrual flow had increased.

She was slightly anxious about her health. When would her condition recover?

If what Nick said was true, then where was Zion now?

Worried, she quickly returned to her bedroom to call Nathaniel. However, her husband was too busy, and he didn't pick up the phone immediately.

Then, she called Merle again.

Merle didn't expect to receive a call from Mango. He was stunned for a moment but eventually picked up the call.

"Madam."

Right now, Merle addressed her as Madam since he was afraid that Mango's identity as the mistress of the Dark Night Empire would be exposed.

Upon hearing Merle's voice, Mango hurriedly asked, "Merle, where are you now?"

Merle was startled and he whispered, "I'm at the train station."

"Train station? Are you looking for the child being sent away by the female cleaner at the shooting club?"

Merle was even more dumbfounded by Mango's words.

"Madam, how did you know about this?"

"Is that true? Is it really the two children from the club? Is it Zion?"

Mango flinched at the thought of it.

Merle hurriedly explained, "We don't know yet. We are still investigating, but we didn't find traces of Zion at the shooting club. Madam, don't worry because Mr. Ye has personally headed over to check it out. We found some clues saying that the train has traveled down to the countryside and he has gone over there by himself."

Upon hearing that Nathaniel had traveled over there in person, Mango knew that this matter could be related to Zion.
