The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 549

It was Ryan Roberts!

Mango knew Ryan as he was close with Walter that it was impossible not to recognize him, although he wasn't as famous in Ocean City. The Roberts family was part of the upper- class society, but they weren't as prominent and no one would treat them with honor if it weren't for the close relationship between Ryan and Walter.

Now that Walter was missing and Ryan showed up here, could it be that Ryan had come to look for Walter as well?

Just as Mango was about to approach Ryan to talk to him and discuss Walter's incident, a vigilant thought flashed through her mind.

Something was off!

No one knew what happened to Walter at this point, and the person who called her could be just luring her to visit this place. There was no reason for the person to contact Ryan.

Then, Mango suddenly recalled that the person who called her and told her about Walter' s accident sounded incredibly similar to Ryan.

"Sorry, I'll get back to you later as I left something in my room. I want to go get it."

Then, Mango smiled faintly before leaving and she went straight into the elevator.

On the other hand, Emberly didn't sense anything wrong as she said with a smile, "Of course! Please let me know if you need my help anytime as I know the place better as I'm a local. Everyone comes here to visit the Underground City and I can fully understand that you don't want to leak your identity, so don't worry, I won't invade your privacy.”

"Great."

Mango left after replying to Emberly, but she started feeling suspicious deep down in her heart.

Underground City?

Everyone came here just to visit that place?

So, it seemed that the Underground City had made a name for itself since there were so many branded cars here.

Mango was deep in her thoughts as she entered the elevator and went one floor up before descending back to the lobby. Then, she found a bathroom near the elevator to hide herself.

Ryan happened to be meeting Emberly just as Mango came down.

Meanwhile, Emberly was very respectful to Ryan as she said with a smile, "Mr. Roberts, you are here!"

"Did a woman named Mango Shen come to book a room here in the past two days?"

Hence, Mango was a little taken aback by Ryan's words.

Was he looking for her?

But why?

Emberly was stunned for a moment when she heard Mango's name.

"Why are you also looking for Mango Shen? Who is she?"

"You shouldn't be asking questions, just do your job and answer me, yes or no?

"No, I check on everyone who visits this place and none of them were named Mango Shen."

Honestly, Emberly felt somewhat frustrated but she didn't dare cause any further trouble.

Then, Ryan glanced around before saying in a low voice, "If a person named Mango Shen comes to book a room, bear in mind to make her stay no matter what method you use. You can drug and knock her out if that' s necessary, do you understand?"

"Got it."

Hence, Emberly didn't inquire any further but an inexplicable glint flashed across her eyes, and it was hard to tell what was on her mind.

"Oh, by the way, there was a floating corpse by the river three days ago. Plus, I heard that it was a child, so were you the one who dumped her there?"

Then, Mango's brows furrowed when she heard what Ryan said.

He didn't seem to be here to look for Walter, and he even knew about Anaya's accident.

Thus, Mango perked up when she recalled Anaya's hatred towards Emberly.

Emberly was taken aback when she heard Ryan asking about Anaya.

"Mr. Roberts, nothing's wrong with her, is there? Why are you asking about her?"

"This child escaped from the Underground City, yet you have the guts to dispose of her in a public area... Aren’ t you afraid that it will attract attention? I see that the Wang family has been living a comfortable life over the years, so do you intend to put an end to that? Don’t you know that Mr. Coon is fully aware of everything you do?"

There was a trace of sternness in Ryan’s voice.

Then, Emberly shivered in fear and her expression darkened when Ryan mentioned Mr. Coon.

On the other hand, Mango felt puzzled as she observed everything through the narrow slit of the door.

Who was Mr. Coon?

Why was Emberly so afraid of him?

Furthermore, what was the relationship between Ryan and Mr. Coon?

Mango hadn't wrapped her head around the matter when Emberly spoke in trepidation, "Mr. Roberts, please don’t ever tell Mr. Coon... The kid is mute and I have sent someone to kill her."

"You killed her? But I heard clearly from someone that she was dragged out of the river and a woman brought her away. If that woman hadn't given herself a death sentence by going to Shaquille Seeyan’s hospital, I'm sure that Mr. Coon's guards would have taken you away long ago!"

Then, Ryan glared fiercely at Emberly as he said those words.

On the other hand, Mango frowned in response.

Shaquille Seeyan?

Was that the name of the doctor?

Hence, Mango could tell that the hospital wasn't a safe place either after hearing what Ryan said.
