The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 518

That night, Mango couldn't fall asleep at all because there was a hidden camera in the room, and every single action of hers was being monitored. It was an awful feeling, and she couldn't rest peacefully.

Despite that, she should pretend to be asleep, just in case Nick noticed something off about her.

Nick returned around ten at night.

Mango heard the sound of his car engine but she didn't budge at all. Instead, she sneered silently.

Sure enough, it was a trap set up by him.

Didn't he say that he wasn't going to come back tonight?

However, he returned home in the end.

While Mango was still pretending to be in deep sleep, Nick had already entered the house.

Mango heard Lucy's voice resounded from outside of her room.

"Mr. Ye? Didn't you say that you're not coming back tonight?"

"I've finished my work, so I decided to come back and have a rest."

Nick sounded really tired.

Lucy didn't probe any further as well.

Soon, the atmosphere outside turned tranquil.

Mango had already fallen asleep. When she woke up, it was already five in the morning.

It was quiet outside. Mango didn't want to get up yet, so she continued to lay on her bed.

A few moments have passed, Lucy woke up, and the mood outside became lively again.

Mango sat up while pretending to have just woken up.

She picked up her phone to check on the time, and it was six in the morning. In fact, she wanted to see if there were any text messages or phone calls.

Nathaniel had been missing for the entire day. What on earth had happened to him?

Where did he go?

Mango was feeling uneasy once again.

She didn't receive any message from Merle as well.

She wanted to ask Thomas to come back, but what about Rainie?

Mango put down her phone and she calmed herself down. Then, she went to the bathroom to wash up.

When Mango came down for breakfast, she noticed that Nick was looking troubled and heavy-hearted.

Mango pretended to be concerned, "What's wrong? Why are you looking so gloomy in the morning?"

Nick hesitated for a moment, then he looked at Mango before answering, "Mango, I heard that you studied car design?"

"Yes, but it's been a long time. What's the matter?"

Everyone in the HY Group knew that Mango was a car designer. But why did Nick ask about it all of a sudden?

He then glanced at her to continue, "A customer is dissatisfied with the car design prepared by our company's staff. Also, no one can come up with a good one. The client insisted that we have to make compensation if the product isn't submitted by today. I just found out that you're also a car designer. So, I wonder if you have the time to help out in my company?"

"I haven't done it in a long time."

"Mango, I know I shouldn't trouble you during this time, and I know that you're no longer involved in this sector. But, HY Group is the Ye family's business established by Nathan. Now that it's under my control, I should at least expand the firm, right? There is no other choice now, and I couldn't find any other designer except you."

It would make her look bad if she refused to help Nick.

Although Mango didn't what he was scheming again, she nodded before saying, "Well, I'll go to the company with you after breakfast, but I'm not sure if I'm able to help out."

"It's okay, don't worry. I'll be happy as long as you're willing to come."

Nick's expression was filled with gratitude. However, Mango knew that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.

After breakfast, Nick was obviously waiting for her.

Mango prepared her belongings and she was ready to depart. Despite her reluctance, she had to take a look at his tricks.

After ordering the servants to take good care of Rita and Wisdom, she and Nick immediately headed towards HY Group.

It had been a long time since she last came to the company.

Mango still remembered vividly about her encounter with Nathaniel during the first visit.

Now that she was here again, but Nathaniel was no longer there. Not to mention, Mango couldn't even get in touch with him now.

Where did he go?

Mango suppressed the uneasiness and doubts in her heart, and she followed Nick into the company.

The receptionists had been replaced and Mango didn't recognize them at all.

She followed Nick all the way to the office. During this time, Mango met many new faces.

HY Group was still the same, but it seemed that those people from before were all gone.

Did Nick switch the employees?

Soon, she was brought to the design department by him.

Mango remembered that there were several outstanding designers in the department. However, it seemed that the company was now full of newcomers instead.

Mango's brows creased slightly.

"Where is the designer from last time?" She still remembered despite being was older and slightly smug, that person was talented nonetheless.

Upon hearing that, Nick hurriedly said, "That employee went abroad to further study. Our company has sponsored the trip, and that person is not in the country currently."

Mango glanced at Nick, but she still couldn't pierce through his thoughts.

After all, Mango had promised to help him. She then said with a heavy heart, "I need to know the current collaboration project and also the requirements from the client. I will evaluate their requests first to see whether I can help you with it."

"You're too humble, Mango! Everyone knows about Katherine, the outstanding designer. With your help, we will be alright! Also, I have prepared a studio and no one will disturb you."
