The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 704

Mango stood outside the door. She saw Walter stepping out from the room when she was about to open it.

Walter didn't know how to react when he faced Mango once again.

On the other hand, Mango was slightly stunned. She said with a smile, "Did you just wake up? How about Novalee?"

"Not yet. So you're here for her?"

Only then did Walter realized that he had asked an idiotic question.

If Mango wasn't here to see Novalee, then who else was she here for?

"You can go in now. Lemme go and wash my face."

After he finished his words, Walter walked sideways past Mango.

However, Mango stopped him.

"Walter."

His footsteps stopped but he did not turn around.

Mango looked at him. When she thought of the various incidents that happened the day before, she lightly patted Walter's shoulder and said in a low voice, " Either way, I wish you happiness. Though Novalee is a good girl, it doesn't mean that you gotta marry her. I would feel sorry for both of you if you do so. Once Nathan's affair comes to an end, I'll seek help from Bettany. I do believe that Novalee will recover if Bethany took up this matter herself."

With complicated thoughts in his mind, Walter was stunned and turned to look at her.

What should he say?

From the perspective of Novalee's future fiance, he should appreciate Mango's kindness. However, he was actually feeling gloomy for himself.

Did Mango wish that he could completely cut off their emotional involvement?

It turned out that he had always been a burden to Mango.

After a pause, he whispered, "I appreciate what you did for Novalee, but you'd better manage Nathaniel's affairs first. In the past, I did hope that he would never wake up, but now I wish for him to be alright. I once thought that I was the one who could give you happiness. Since I can't do it now and both of you are madly in love, I will give you my blessing." "Letting go is another kind of love, and it will always be engraved in my heart. Walter, you're always a buddy of Nathan and me. Both of us will do anything for you whenever you're in need and don't ever distance yourself from us due to this incident. Mind you that both Nathan and I treat you equally."

"I understand."

Walter was feeling depressed right now.

"Excuse me. Take care of Novalee, hm?"

After that, Walter fled.

Looking at his retreating back, Mango knew that she might hurt Walter again. She only hoped that Novalee could heal Walter, and she wished to see his sincere smile again.

She sighed and entered the ward.

Novalee hadn't woken up yet.

Mango looked at this silly girl and felt that she was lucky enough to have such a friend.

At first, she was impressed by Novalee's attitude at work and her good performance in the company. Hence, she made up her mind to promote Novalee as she was a local, and she would have an easier time dealing with the people here. Little did she expect that Novalee was so honest and upright.

Mango knew that she would make Novalee her

friend for life.

She gently pushed Novalee's hair away from her forehead.

Novalee suddenly opened her eyes and was slightly stunned upon seeing Mango.

"When did you arrive, Ms. Shen?"

"Don't move, just lie down. Remember that you are a patient now, and stop thinking of yourself as healthy as usual."

Mango quickly stopped her and gestured as she spoke.

Novalee scratched her head in embarrassment and said, "I'm fine. Don't I look good now? Those kids who are from the countryside like me are sturdy and will recover in just a few days."

"What nonsense. How could it not hurt? I appreciate what you've done to save Walter. Thank you, Novalee."

"Ain't mention."

Novalee suddenly felt uncomfortable.

She touched her head and seemed to be perplexed.

Mango looked at Novalee and said in a low voice, "Walter is actually quite a pitiful person. He seems to be rampant and aggressive in front of people. In fact, he is merely a lonely man who values relationships and loyalty. If anyone treats him well, he will treat the person even better. However, this fellow doesn't know how to express his feelings sometimes. Please show more tolerance to him."

"No...no, I don't expect him to repay me. I just don't want him to be taken away by Zendaya. By the way, what about Zendaya and Dakari?"

Novalee asked in a hurry.

Mango smiled and said, "Don't worry. They've both been taken away by the police. I don't think they'll be able to walk free for the rest of their lives."

She didn't tell Novalee how Walter treated Zendaya. It was better to hide the truth from a cheerful girl like Novalee.

"Sounds good. Our project may be delayed due to this instead."

"It doesn't matter. Take your time as I'm in no hurry. It's not easy to pioneer a new market. Don't worry. You still have Walter to lead you, right?"

Mango made a gesture as she spoke.

Novalee bit her lower lip and said, "Can I finish up this project by myself?"

"Why? What did Walter do to you?"

"No, I just feel that he is way too nice to me now. I'm slightly uneasy."

Upon hearing Novalee's words, Mango laughed

immediately.

"You're thinking too much."

Both of them chatted idly for a few moments, but Walter still nowhere to be seen. Mango soon realized that he was deliberately avoiding her.

It seemed that he was not going to bid her farewell either.

Again, it was true that parting ways was the most unbearable thing for him.

Mango collected her thoughts and gestured to Novalee. "I'm leaving together with Maxton. Nathan is waiting for me over there. I can't stay here for too long. Your injuries are considered work- related injuries, and I'll pay for all your medical expenses. What you need to do is just focus on your wounds. Don't worry about your new project. I'll treat you to dinner after you've fully recovered."

"Thank you, Ms. Shen. I'll be fine in just a few days."
