The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 582

However, Nathaniel held onto Mango's waist after she tried to retract her body.

He replied in a husky and low voice, "Don't worry about it."

"What if Mom needs us?"

Mango felt a little embarrassed.

"I don't care."

The knock on the door became louder as Nathaniel was about to continue.

"Mr. Ye, I have something urgent to discuss with you."

Thomas's voice came through the door.

Then, Mango immediately pushed Nathaniel away this time.

Nathaniel looked very annoyed as the amorous mood evaporated into nothing. He walked to the door and opened it forcefully. He fiercely grabbed Thomas's collar and said: "You'd better have something big to report, or I'll kill you."

Thomas was more or less stunned when he saw how angry Nathaniel was. He then realized the reason for it after he saw Mango subconsciously tidying up her collar.

"Ahem, I'm sorry, Mr. Ye."

"Well, talk."

Nathaniel was about to kill Thomas.

Didn't he know that a man would be very irritated if he was interrupted while he was in the mood?

Thomas dared not delay and quickly passed a report to Nathaniel, "Noah sent this urgent document to you, and he said that you have to view it immediately."

"What's so urgent about this file?"

Nathaniel glanced at Mango as he took the document. "You rest first. Thomas and I will go to the study to settle some things. I'll cook lunch for you if there's anything you would like to eat."

Mango felt extremely delighted to have a billionaire cook for her.

"I'm not hungry yet, so go ahead and do your work. I'm a little sleepy, and I want to take a nap."

"Alright. Let me know when you get hungry."

Nathaniel's gaze turned from cold to gentle.

"Okay. But don't you have to go to the office? I thought you have stripped Nick's position as CEO away. Don't we need anyone there?"

"Not for the time being. Besides, we still have

Thomas. Don't we?"

Thomas's lips twitched a little after hearing what Nathaniel had said.

He hadn't had a moment's rest ever since he was called back.

"Mr. Ye, I'm getting married."

Thomas could not help but complain a little.

Then, Nathaniel replied in a cold tone, "So, does that mean you can shirk work just because you're getting married?"

His words left Thomas speechless.

He knew that Nathaniel was taking revenge on him for interrupting just now, but he didn't feel like he should be blamed for it. How was he to know that he'd arrived at such a bad time?

Thomas had a sad face as Nathaniel dragged him to the study.

Mango couldn't help but chuckle when she saw them behaving in this manner. Then, she realized her phone wasn't by her side when she wanted to give Rainie a call.

Perhaps Nathaniel had kept it.

Mango leaned against the bed and fell asleep with this thought in mind. She would just call Rainie after Nathaniel came back.

Meanwhile, Thomas subconsciously closed the door of the study as they stepped inside.

"What's so important?"

Nathaniel still hadn't recovered from his arousal just now.

Thomas whispered, "It's about Nick."

There was a slight change in expression on Nathaniel's face after he heard this.

His expression became increasingly serious after he opened and read the file.

"What's wrong, Mr. Ye?"

Thomas didn't know what was inside as he had not seen the document, but he couldn't help asking after looking at Nathaniel's facial expression.

Then, Nathaniel said in a low tone, "Noah said that Nick was last seen in a small village in Nakasara, and he reappeared from the same place as well. This means if Nick wasn't himself then, he was no longer my brother even before we received the news of his death."

"How could it be? Where is Nick then?"

"Yes, where is he? Where is the real Nick? Is he dead or alive? Why is there another version of my brother?"

Nathaniel couldn't make sense of the situation too.

"Does the board have any objections to Nick being unable to go to work due to illness?"

Next, Nathaniel calmed himself down before he asked.

Thomas quickly said, "There are no objections. In fact, everyone hopes that you can return as soon as possible to take control of the company's affairs. Mr. Ye, what do you plan to do with this person who looks like your brother?"

"He must have done plastic surgery as he doesn't look exactly like Nick. Look into him, and lock him up in the villa before we can clear him of his identity. No one is allowed to let him out without my permission."

"Yes sir!"

Thomas left after receiving his instructions.

Nathaniel frowned even more deeply as he looked at the documents in front of him.

It was already 11 am by the time Mango woke up.

She could feel that her body was slowly recovering as she stretched lazily on the bed.

Mango didn't see Nathaniel when she got off the bed. Next, she put on a coat and went downstairs as she thought he might still be busy. However, she saw Nathaniel preparing food in the kitchen with his sleeves rolled up.
