The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 669

"Mistress, Edolie wasn't in the car as she let someone else drive her car out, so she wasn't involved in the accident. I'm afraid that we might've alerted our enemy..."

Merle's call came and Mango was taken aback by his words.

It seemed that Edolie was quite a vigilant person.

Mango hung up the phone and sent a message to Merle.

"Got it, ask your men to continue keeping an eye on Edolie."

After sending the message, Mango quickly contacted Nathaniel.

"Where are you? Edolie wasn't in her car so the one that got into the accident isn't her... You don't have to go there anymore."

Nathaniel frowned slightly when he saw Mango's message.

Edolie wasn't in the car?

That was to say, Edolie must have gotten the news and might have already found a place to hide. Also, there was a chance that she would send messages to Hank to instruct them to bring

Anaya to another location.

At the thought of this, Nathaniel hurriedly sent a message to Mango.

"Keep an eye on the village entrance as they might want to move Anaya to another location. I won't be able to rush back in time, so if they indeed bring Anaya out, you and Merle must rescue her no matter what."

Mango nodded and asked Nathaniel to hurry back.

However, she frowned with worry.

This place wasn't Ocean City, and they would still have to abide by the law before taking any action.

At the thought of this, Mango sent Denver a message.

"Do you know any cops here in Nakasara?"

Denver thought that something had happened to Mango, so he hurriedly asked, "Did you get into trouble?"

"No, I need some help from the police here but the bureaucratic procedures are really complicated, so I wanted to ask you if you have any connections here."

Denver heaved a sigh of relief after seeing Mango's message.

"That's a relief. It's indeed much more complicated to settle issues here, especially when dealing with outsiders, but one of my comrades joined the police force. I can introduce him to you and you can explain your situation to him."

"That would be great, thank you."

"Miss Shen, you don't have to thank me. Just bring me some good stuff when you come back!"

Denver smiled as he forwarded his comrade's contact details to Mango.

Denver was afraid that his comrade would be clueless about Mango's situation, so he quickly told him what happened to her.

As soon as Mango saved Denver's comrade's number, the other party immediately messaged her.

"How can I help you, beauty?"

"Someone held a child hostage in Altane Village illegally, but we can't enter the village. It is likely that they will leave the place now and take the child with them, so we really hope you can help."

Mango typed the message hastily.

Denver's comrade replied in an instant, "Alright, we'll head over right now, but please don't interfere. If anything happens, the situation will become even more complicated if you're involved."

"Alright, thank you." "You're welcome. My name is Marquis Beckett, you can come to me anytime if you need my help as I'm really close to Denver."

Mango let out a sigh of relief after seeing Marquis's words.

She knew that it would be too late for her to rush back now, so she quickly sent a message to Merle.

"Tell your men to keep an eye on the villagers but don't fight nor start any conflict with them. If they want to leave Altane Village, don't stop them. Just follow them from behind, and be sure to keep us updated on their whereabouts."

Merle was slightly stunned as he replied, "What if they escape?"

"Just listen to me."

Mango hung up the phone and left the hotel hastily before she drove towards the direction of Altane Village.

Not long after she departed, Merle sent a message to her saying that Hank took a few people with him and left Altane Village. Also, Merle seemed to have noticed that Anaya was in the car.

Mango told Merle to follow them from a distance and to be ready to report their location at any

time.

As soon as Marquis received the news from Mango, he immediately brought his men over and stopped Hank's vehicle in the middle of the street.

"Routine inspection! Stop your vehicle and show me your license and registration, thank you for your cooperation!"

Hank was completely stunned.

In this place, the police seldom conducted any inspections as it wasn't even close to the border of the central city. It was just a small village, so why would the police come here to inspect the cars?

Nevertheless, Hank didn't have the courage to ignore the police and drive away as he couldn't afford to be accused of assaulting a police officer.

"Hank, what should we do? Anaya, she..."

"Shut up!"

Hank broke out in a cold sweat.

He glanced at Anaya and said fiercely, "I'll untie you, but don't you dare spout sh*t later, is that clear? If not, I'll beat you to death!"

However, Anaya stared at him stubbornly.

Hank noticed her attitude and he got so angry that he was about to slap her when the person next to him stopped him.

"Hank, the police are here..." "You better watch out!"

Hank untied Anaya's bindings and threw them under the seat. Two men sandwiched Anaya so that it would be impossible for her to escape.

Hank stopped the car with a smile before he said to Marquis, "What's the matter? Do you really have to inspect us even in this tiny village?"

"Quit your nonsense and get out of the car now!"

Hank's expression darkened.

He had to get out?

Wouldn't Anaya seize this opportunity to escape?

"What are you waiting for? Is there anything illegal in the car? You're not smuggling drugs, are you?"

As soon as Marquis said those words, Hank trembled uncontrollably.

"Officer, please don't accuse us of such illegal acts as we are law-abiding citizens..."

"Is that so? Then get down and let us have a look!"

Marquis's expression remained solemn all this while.

Hank's heart was pounding wildly, yet he had no choice but to get out of the car.

At that moment, he frowned as he noticed that Merle's car was still following them from a distance behind. However, they also had to stop the car because of the police inspection.

If the police hadn't shown up, the people behind them would have taken the opportunity to rob them of Anaya... So they were probably Mango's men!
