The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 710

"Hey, are you okay?"

Mango was a little stunned but she still asked her out of kindness.

Nanny Zhang was very weak. She was lying on the table for a while before she caught her breath. She said, "I'm fine, but there's not much time left for me."

"Why did you ask me to come over today?"

Mango didn't know about others, but she really didn't want to waste her sympathy on Nanny Zhang, even if she saved Nathaniel.

When Nanny Zhang found Mango's wary gaze, she smiled and said, "You've always been on guard against me. Will you let go of your hatred to me only when I'm dead?"

"I don't hate you, but I would never sympathize with or forgive you either. I am not a saint after all. I can't develop sympathy for you after you hurt me. Although your end doesn't satisfy me, at least it vents my anger."

Mango didn't even hide her true feelings towards Nanny Zhang.

Nanny Zhang was very upset.

This woman was her daughter-in-law but she had always refused to admit it. However, at the moment, she was an old woman who was dying soon.

"You're right. I'm the one who brought this upon myself and I can't blame anyone else. Yet, you still have to yield to me, Mango."

"Who do you think you are?"

"Don't you feel that your throat is burning all the time? Don't you know the reason?"

Nanny Zhang's words instantly enraged Mango.

"You really did something to me."

"Sort of. How can a cruel woman like me not leave a way out for myself? I have to honor my wish even if I'm dying soon."

Nanny Zhang didn't even conceal her intentions at all. Mango was so furious that she was going to hit her.

"I know what you're thinking! There's no point in hitting me now. It would only make me die ahead of schedule. Both you and Nathaniel will die with me if I do."

"What did you say? That's your son!"

Mango could never have imagined that Nanny Zhang's conscienceless nature would remain unchanged and she was still the same in the end.

She grabbed Nanny Zhang's collar and couldn't wait to punch this woman to death.

However, Nanny Zhang said indifferently, "My biological son? Did he treat ever me as his mother? I'm like this now, yet he's still lying there. Perhaps he wouldn't even have the chance to see me for the last time. How can you call him my biological son?"

"You brought this upon yourself. If you weren't so cruel and merciless, you wouldn't have ended up like this."

"Mango, didn't I treat you pretty good during your first three years of marriage?"

Nanny Zhang suddenly began.

Mango sneered and said, "All your kindness was to cover up your evil instead. Isn't it pointless saying this now?"

"Yeah, it's pointless. But for the first three years, I was truly wished to stay by Nathan's side. Even though I have been drugging you, I've treated you well, didn't I?"

"Isn't it useless now, Nanny Zhang? What do you want to explain? What do you want? No matter what you've done or said, you can't deny that you're indeed a cruel woman."

Mango refused to know about Nanny Zhang's thoughts. She just wanted to know what was going on with Nathaniel.

"What on earth did you do to Nathan?"

Nanny Zhang looked at the anxious look on Mango's face and suddenly smiled in relief.

Tve done too many evil deeds in my life. Fortunately, God treated my son well and let him meet you. You still persist in staying by his side after experiencing so much. That is his blessing. I did nothing but drug him slightly as I have a small wish that I want you to fulfill. As long as you agree with it, I will detoxify him. No one else will be able to purge him of the toxins after my death. You know that."

"Despicable! What the hell do you want?"

Mango trembled with fear the more she listened.

Nanny Zhang said with a wry smile, "I want to see my grandchildren."

"Don't even think about it."

Mango refused instantly.

The only reason Nanny Zhang could be in contact with Nathaniel was out of necessity. Mango didn't dare to bring the children over to see her as she could even harm her own son.

Besides, what right did she have to see Zion and Rita?

Mango's refusal was within Nanny Zhang's expectations.

She stretched out her hand to draw her hair together and said slowly, "Then you'd better arrange a funeral for Nathan together with me."

"You..."

Mango was at her wit's end after being threatened.

There was no other way as Nathaniel was her weakness after all.

She might not care if she was alive or not, but she could not ignore Nathaniel's life.

Mango gritted her teeth and glared at Nanny Zhang, but Nanny Zhang didn't compromise at all.

"I'm dying soon and it's for certain. I just wish to see my grandson and granddaughter. Why won't you promise me such a minor request? Aren't you a kind person?"

"My kindness is not for you. Besides, who knows what you're going to do to them? You've accepted that they're your grandchildren now, but you didn't show any mercy when you tried to hurt them last time. How can I trust you?"

"You don't have to bring them to me. Just let me have a video call with them. Won't you grant my request?"

"No way!"

Mango stood up and left.

Nanny Zhang didn't seem to have expected Mango to be like this. For a moment, she anxiously intended to stop Mango but she failed as a clump of congealed blood expelled itself from her mouth, causing her to cough violently.

Mango left the prison trembling with anger.

After she returned to the hotel, Genevieve saw her sour expression and she quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nanny Zhang is so detestable that she even tried to threaten me with Nathan again."
