The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 706

Wasn't that Desmond?

Mango quickly got rid of Abyss and ran towards Desmond. Before she could reach him, Desmond had already been taken away.

She quickly caught up but the car drove too fast that Mango couldn't catch up at all.

Abyss heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Mango didn't managed to catch up the car.

He came to Mango and said in a low voice, "Get in the car. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Let me buy you a coffee."

However, Mango seemed not to hear his words. She looked at the car which was driven away by Desmond and quickly took out her mobile phone to send him a text.

When Abyss found out that Mango had Desmond's contact, he was taken aback.

"You know Desmond? How are you acquainted with him?"

In Abyss's impression, Mango's profession and entire core of her being revolved around Nathaniel. Nathaniel and Desmond didn't have any connections at all, so how did Mango get to know him?

However, she didn't even spare time to explain to Abyss. She asked in a hurry, "Desmond, It's Mango. I'm at the gate of the Fang family. Are you able to come back soon after reading this text? I'm looking for Bettany, and that's why I must see Marissa."

Meanwhile, Desmond's cell phone rang.

He took a glance at it and found that it was from Mango. His face turned pale once he opened the text.

"Turn back."

Desmond ordered the driver to turn around immediately.

When Abyss saw that Mango was ignoring him, he anxiously grabbed her arm again and said, "Did you hear what I said? Mango, I know that you hate me because of previous incidents but you shouldn't be here now."

Mango stared icily at Abyss, hoping that he would let go of her. However, Abyss did not notice her intention at all.

"Mango, will you listen to me one more time? Didn't I lie to you in the past, did I?"

Mango pushed Abyss away, but she fell to the ground as she did it too hard, and it hurt her so much that she grimaced.

"Are you okay, Mango?"

Abyss stepped forward and tried to help her up, but Mango dodged him.

Just then, Mango's cellphone rang. It was Genevieve's text.

"How is it? Have you met Bettany?"

"Nope, Bettany went missing. I have to find her as soon as possible."

Mango replied quickly.

Then, Abyss finally realized that something wasn't right.

"Why don't you talk, Mango? Why are you just sending text without calling? Are you having sore throat?"

Mango paused her movements for a moment, but she didn't look at Abyss either.

It was unnecessary for her to tell him about her recent condition and past experiences.

"Just tell me! What's wrong with you? How has Nathaniel taken care of you? If only I knew you turned out in this way, I wouldn't have let you go at the beginning, I..."

Before Abyss could finish his sentence, Mango raised her head abruptly and glanced at Abyss. The coldness in her eyes made Abyss slightly stunned and he couldn't take it.

Mango's eyes were strange and impatient as if he was merely a passer-by. It seemed that the good old times no longer existed.

Abyss knew that he was the one who had brought this upon himself. If he hadn't been too reckless, he might still be friends with Mango, but now...

He couldn't help but take a step back involuntarily with a complicated feeling in his chest.

At this moment, Desmond's car drove back.

When Desmond got out of the car, he couldn't help but frown when he saw Abyss.

"Why are you here, Mr. Tang?"

Abyss looked at Desmond. He restrained his emotions and said, "What about you?"

"That's none of your business, Mr. Tang."

After finishing his words, Desmond looked at Mango with a somewhat anxious expression.

"Mrs. Ye, you shouldn't be here. Get in the car, and well talk later."

Upon hearing Desmond's words, Mango was just about to get into the car, but she was stopped by Abyss.

"Wait, did you both know each other?"

"That's nothing to do with you, Mr. Tang."

Desmond was extremely repulsed by Abyss's attempt to stop Mango.

However, Abyss said coldly, "When did you get to know Mango? What intentions do you have for her?"

Mango felt that she'd had enough of Abyss.

She pushed Abyss away and typed on her phone, "Excuse me, can you please stop interfering in my affairs? My social relations are none of your business. Would you like to give me an explanation for making me look like Marissa?"

Abyss's face turned pale all of a sudden.

"How did you know that Marissa and you..."

"We've met and become good friends. Do you have any questions?"

Mango had almost lost all her patience.
