The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 560

"Won't you regret it? What if something happens to him after you leave? Wouldn't you be remorseful for the rest of your life? Shouldn't a person's lover be their first priority on top of others?"

Desmond was befuddled by Mango's decision. Although he could feel the sadness and reluctance in her expression, he also admired her firm decision-making. If it was Marissa, she would probably do everything she could to get him out.

Hence, Desmond was feeling blue at the thought of Marissa.

Mango didn't look back, and she dared not to do so as she could feel Nathaniel's gaze upon her. She knew that she would no longer have the courage to leave once she turned back, nor would she have the courage to go on.

"Not every woman works the same way."

Mango quickly arrived at the entrance, and someone was already waiting there for her.

"Mrs. Ye, you've come at last."

Ryan stood at the door and he was followed by several bodyguards behind him, who looked powerfully built.

Mango looked at him and thought about what she had heard in the Equatorial Hotel. Hence, she couldn't help but ask, "Who did this to Walter?"

"I did!"

Ryan didn't bother denying it at all. Hearing this, Mango clenched her fists subconsciously.

"I remember that Walter is the only reason your family's business is thriving today. Everyone in Ocean City treats you with respect because you're Walter's good friend. What did he do to you for you to treat him so cruelly?"

Mango really didn't understand how weak the trust between individuals could be. Walter treated Ryan as a brother, but Ryan turned against him at the drop of a hat.

Then Ryan's expression changed and he said faintly, "Mrs. Ye, not everyone is as lucky as you."

"What did you say?"

I'm saying that you're lucky, because you have Nathaniel to protect you, and Walter to help you. What's more, you're the daughter of the Hans family, and you even have a best friend who is willing to risk everything for you. Indeed, God favors you very much. But if you have too much with you, then you'll risk losing even more. If you knew when to stop, you might be living a happy and contented life now. Although it's a simple life, there will be lesser things to worry about."

Then Mango frowned slightly upon hearing his words.

"What are you trying to say?"

"What I wanted to say is that Nathaniel's the reason you're involved in this, and all of this actually has nothing to do with you. If only you were not Nathan's wife, you and Walter would be safe and sound."

Hence, Mango suddenly became angry.

"Are you saying that I dragged Walter into this?"

"That's right.”

Just as he finished his sentence, Mango suddenly slapped him across the face.

"Is this the reason why you turned against him? You and he grew up together. He's always considerate of you, and he even gave you his lover. Instead of being grateful, you treat him like this, and you're even telling me that it's all my fault. Ryan, I admit that I dragged Walter into this, but that's no reason to hurt him. I will definitely take revenge for everything that you've done to him today."

After that, Mango immediately put Walter down.

Just then, Desmond glanced at her and asked in a low voice, "Can you handle it alone? There are quite a few people with him."

"Help if you can, or if not, just shut up. Take good care of both of them."

Then Mango took off her jacket.

She had too much anger and sorrow to vent right now.

Meanwhile, the bodyguards behind Ryan were ready to attack.

After that, Desmond set Merle aside before he took off his coat and said faintly, "Although I'm not good at martial arts, I can't stand watching a woman risk her life. You lead the fight, and I'll handle the rest."

Mango glanced at him and said coldly, "It's not a fight till the death, but this is to avenge my friend. People like him don't deserve to have a friend like Walter. Tell me, which hand of yours did you use to hurt Walter?"

"Both of them. Are you going to cripple my hands?"

Ryan sneered, and his mocking expression made Mango feel very upset.

Then, she immediately stepped forward and punched him in the face as blood spurted out of his nose.

Mango thought that he would resist, but she didn't expect him to be unaffected at all. Instead, he said coldly, "Is this all you've got? Do you think that's enough to get them outta here? You ought to know that in the Underground City, everything here is outside the law's jurisdiction. Plus, Mr. Coon is the one who calls the shots."

"Who is he?"

Mango had long wanted to know the answer to this.

Then, Ryan said in a low voice, "Do you think I'll tell you?"

"F*ck you!"

Mango attacked him once again mercilessly.

However, Ryan didn't dodge as if he didn't care about his well-being at all.

Mango frowned slightly as her fist stopped a hair's breadth in front of his face.

"What are you doing? Do you really think I won't hit you?"

"Go ahead, beat me up. I deserve to die, but I have to do this."

"Why not?"

"There's no reason why."

Hence, Mango was confused by his abnormal behavior.

Just then, Walter woke up.

"Stop!"

Hearing this, Mango quickly turned her head and helped Walter up.

"He did this to you, but you're still willing to protect him?"

Of course, Mango knew that Walter was a loyal friend, and she also knew that he valued friendship more than anything else even though he acted frivolously at times.
