The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 570

There were tears in Yama Hades' eyes. However, Nathaniel interrupted her before she could have a good look at Zion's face.

"Let me have another look. I haven't spoken to him yet."

She was very anxious.

Nathaniel said coldly, "He's my son! You just said that you wanted to see him and that's all. Now that I've agreed to your request, what else do you want? Are you trying to go back on your word? I'm telling you, if my wife really dies, I will make sure to tear this place apart. Don't think that I will never dare to ruin you and the Underground City."

Hearing his threatening words, Yama quickly retracted her hands.

Despite that, she still seemed reluctant to let go, as she kept staring at the phone in his hand as if it was the most precious thing in the world.

"Okay, I can save her, but you have to promise me two conditions."

"Tell me!"

Even if there were a dozen conditions, he would still agree to it without hesitation.

Hearing his quick response, Yama Hades said with some disbelief, "Did you just agree to it even before knowing what I want?"

"As long as you can save her, I will give you anything, except for my life. My life is hers, so I have to stay with her forever."

Yama was obviously stunned by his words.

This time, she seemed to be taken aback.

"If only that person had also treated me like this, or else I don't think I would have done something like that."

She seemed to have a lot going on in her life. However, Nathaniel did not have any desire to know.

"State your terms."

Yama Hades was pulled from her sorrowful thoughts after hearing his cold and demanding voice.

She looked at him and felt that he was being genuine. After thinking for a moment, she finally said, "Two conditions. First, to save your wife, you have to promise to send either of your children to become my apprentice. You should bring one of them to me on the day your wife is healed. Also, I will only return your child to you after ten years."

Nathaniel's brows furrowed.

He would never agree to send away his children no matter what.

"Never, next one please."

"That's my only condition. If you agree to it, I can try to save your wife, and maybe there is a glimmer of hope for her. If you don't, the door is just behind you, please see yourself out."

Yama Hades pointed to the door and said without hesitation.

Right now, Nathaniel was trapped in a dilemma.

Giving up his own child to save Mango? He could never allow this to happen, but this seemed to be the only chance to save her.

"Why do you want my child to be your apprentice?"

"You don't need to know that."

The gentleness in her eyes disappeared in a flash. Now, she was cold and ruthless, just like how she was before.

Nathaniel was once again in a quandary.

"What's the second condition?"

"Second, I want 400cc of blood of the guy that your wife brought over."

Nathaniel frowned even more as soon as she said it.

"You have to get his permission."

"Stop the nonsense. You may not know this, but even a drop of his blood is precious. His blood can even be auctioned at an exorbitant price. It doesn't matter to you, but for us doctors, that man is priceless. Unfortunately, your wife will not agree for me to touch him at all."

Yama Hades' demands were indeed difficult.

Then, Nathaniel said coldly, "I can try and talk to him."

"There's no need for that, as I agree."

Desmond suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Frankly, Nathaniel was displeased when others eavesdropped on his conversations.

"You were eavesdropping on us?"

"I just happened to pass by, and I was about to ask the doctor if there was any way to save her. Then, I heard that you guys were talking about my blood. I know that my blood is precious, and it can play a great role in the hands of doctors. I'm alright with giving out 400ccs of my blood. Besides, I still owe Mango a favour, and I have to repay it."

Desmond was being frank and straightforward, and he didn't seem to care about Nathaniel's presence at all.

Nathaniel's anger dissipated slightly after looking at his bright eyes.

"If you agree to it, the debt between you and Mango is settled. No matter what happens in the end, you'll be free."

Truth be told, even Nathaniel was a little mesmerized by Desmond's beauty and it made him feel uneasy. Even if Mango did not fancy Desmond, Nathaniel still felt that his presence alone was a threat to their relationship.

Seeing Nathaniel's reaction, Desmond nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, it's a deal, but I won't leave until I make sure that she's alright."

"It's up to you."

Nathaniel heaved a sigh of relief.

Once this condition was met, the only thing left to do was to send one of his children over here in order to save Mango.

However, it was really a heartbreaking decision to make.

He had yet to bear the responsibility of being a father, and now he had to sacrifice his children to save his wife?

Wouldn't the children hate him for doing this?

However, if Yama Hades could really save Mango, that would mean that her medical skills were exceptional.

Wouldn't it be good if his children had a chance to learn from her?

However, he was worried about what his children would turn into after being with a weirdo like Yama Hades.

Hence, he was in a dilemma. However, Yama Hades did not urge him to give an answer. Instead, she said faintly, "You can go and think about it. But I'll have to remind you that your wife will be in deep sleep until then, and her condition will start to deteriorate after 12 o'clock at midnight. By then, it will be difficult for me to save her, so you should make preparations for her funeral."

"12 o'clock midnight?"
