The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 728

This was the phone number of the jade tycoon.

This was a number that Walter spent a lot of effort to get, but unfortunately, they did not pick up calls from unknown numbers. He never thought Novalee would have their number.

Walter looked at Novalee with a complicated expression.

Novalee didn't seem as simple as she looked.

Would there be a need to go to work for Mango's small business if she knew someone like this?

He was not sure of the answer.

Walter became increasingly contemplative with Novalee's attitude towards him.

The person on the other end of the line answered quickly after Novalee dialed the number.

"Novalee, so you have time to call me now? You never even came the last time I asked you to come."

Walter didn't like the tone of voice of the other party,

Novalee said with a smile, "Uncle Liu, I have a friend who is interested in the jade business. I remember that you are doing something similar, so I want to ask you for help."

"What kind of friend? Is he your boyfriend? I will definitely help him if he is your boyfriend."

The jade tycoon teased.

Novalee was a little embarrassed and gave Walter a glance. When she saw that Walter did not have any reaction, she smiled and continued, "Uncle Liu, you only know how to make fun of me."

"I am serious. I will help him if he is your boyfriend. If not, I have to consider it. The state of the jade market is tough now. Raw materials are getting lesser, and the prices will be increased. Don't get involved in this industry if it's a small business."

Uncle Liu's words put Novalee in a difficult position.

She looked at Walter and said with some embarrassment, "Uncle Liu, are you only willing to help me if I say that he's my boyfriend?"

"Of course."

"Then it's a yes if you say so."

Novalee's words made Walter's eyes flash for a moment, and then he calmed down.

"Well, then bring him to see me. I'll have to check your boyfriend out."

Uncle Liu hung up the phone after that.

Novalee looked at Walter with embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry. Uncle Liu will not be willing to help if I didn't say that. He is in charge of the jade business here. It's easier for you to see him instead of someone else. Why don't you pretend to be dating me and then break up with me after you get the supply of goods?"

"I've always said that I don't mind being your boyfriend. It's true."

Walter got up and left after saying that.

All of a sudden, he felt a stuffy tightness in his neck.

It was not that he insisted on this business, nor did he have to enter the jade market. It was just that he could not see through Novalee's character, and he wouldn't be happy if he didn't get an answer. He wanted to see how Novalee would continue to act.

When Novalee saw that Walter went out, she thought that he couldn't accept that he got the business through her connections, so she followed him.

"Walter, I know that you like to do things in a very open manner. However, it is alright to use some special methods to get what you want sometimes." "For example?" Walter looked straight at Novalee. His eyes were so piercing that she couldn't bear them.

Novalee was slightly stunned. She felt that Walter meant something behind his words, but she didn't know why. She thought for a moment and said, "What kind of example do you want?"

"Forget it. I'm going out for some air. Don't follow me."

Walter went out after saying that.

Novalee looked at him and didn't understand what was wrong with him, so she could only go back to her room alone.

There was a cool breeze when Walter came out. It was chilly, but he still felt unhappy. It felt as if something was burning in his chest, which made him very uncomfortable.

He realized that he really didn't have many friends. The only people he could think of at this time were actually Nathaniel and Mango.

Then, Walter called Mango directly.

On the other end, Nathaniel woke up from his drunken stupor and had a headache.

Mango hurriedly went to get the hangover tea for him.

Just at this moment, Mango's phone rang.

Nathaniel's brows slightly wrinkled when he saw that it was Walter. He then picked up the call.

"Mango, do you know that there's something wrong with Novalee? She actually knows the jade tycoon. How could a person who knows the jade tycoon work for you? Don't you think we should investigate her thoroughly?"

"Why don't you go and check if there is a problem?"

Walter was stunned as soon as Nathaniel said that.

He took the phone and took a look at it. There was no mistake, he'd called Mango's phone for sure!

"Nathaniel, do you think it's funny? Why did you pick up Mango's call? Do you understand what personal privacy is? Did Mango allow you to use her phone?

Walter was already not in a good mood, and his temper became worse when he heard Nathaniel answering Mango's call.

Nathaniel was not angry, but said faintly, "Mango went to make me some hangover tea."

"Wow, you are so blessed! You have someone to care for you when you're drunk. She even prepared hangover tea for you! Nathaniel, are you even a man? Don't you feel ashamed to ask your own wife to work like this?" "I can smell jealousy. Walter, are you jealous of

me?"

Nathaniel said with a smile.

Walter's hairs stood on end.

"Jealous? Are you kidding me? Who am I? I'm a notorious ladies man! I have slept with more women than you have ever seen. Why do you still say that I am jealous?"

"It's fine if you're jealous of me. It doesn't matter, I don't mind."

"Bah! Why are you so shameless? Nathaniel, I've noticed that I'll never get along well with you. I'll hang up then! Ask Mango to give me a call when she comes back."

Walter hung up the phone after saying that.

Nathaniel looked at the phone and smiled happily.
