The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 729

Novalee had never heard Mango's voice before as Mango had already lost her voice when Novalee met her. Also, Walter did not let Novalee know that Mango had recovered, so Novalee did not find anything strange.

However, Novalee felt really uncomfortable when she heard Mango call Walter in such an intimate way.

She also found herself ridiculous as she shouldn't have any feelings towards Walter.

It didn't matter how many women he had been together with as this had nothing to do with her.

However, she felt heavy- hearted and couldn't seem to get the burden off her heart.

"Well, I'll look for him later then."

Mango ended the conversation instantly.

It was strange that she felt guilty although she didn't do anything wrong.

At that instant, Mango felt extremely uncomfortable.

On the other hand, Novalee looked at her phone and no one could tell what she was thinking.

Walter saw Novalee in a trance while holding her phone when he came out.

At that moment, he frowned.

"What's wrong?"

Walter took Novalee's phone from her directly and turned it on to look at the call record. Then, he hurriedly asked when he saw a call from Mango, "What did she say?"

Novalee couldn't help but feel sad when she saw that Walter was so concerned about the call.

"Isn't Ms. Shen the love of your life? Why do you seem interested in other women now? Or is it that you enjoy having flings with others?"

Walter's frown deepened after hearing what Novalee said.

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing, I just feel that you are a jerk at this point. I've always thought that you are deeply in love with Ms. Shen and sees her as someone special as you would sacrifice anything for her without regret although you know that she's married. I thought that it's rare to find someone like you in this world, yet I realized now that I was too naive. You're just a playboy after all!"

Novalee got up and left having said that.

However, Walter grabbed her arm at that instant.

"What do you mean? Explain it to me, how am I a

playboy? Who did I have flings with?"

"Let go of me!"

Novalee shook him off and said coldly, "With whom? Didn't you have a fling with your dear secretary, Hadley? She even addressed you by your name directly. Who would believe that the two of you have nothing to do with each other?"

Then, Walter was stunned for a moment before he smiled all of a sudden.

"She's married and even has a child, so how could I have a fling with her?"

At that instant, Novalee was stunned as this situation was beyond her expectation.

"Wow, you're truly a b*stard. She's already a mother yet you won't let go of her... You're totally a jerk!"

"Come on, can you please not slander me? Her husband is my close friend and we have always called each other by our names. What's wrong with that?"

Novalee was taken aback by Walter's words.

"Novalee, are you jealous? You aren't in love with me, are you?"

However, Novalee retorted immediately after hearing Walter's words.

"Nonsense! Why would I fall in love with you? Don't be so self-righteous."

Then, Novalee turned around and ran away after saying that.

However, Walter did not chase after her this time.

He looked at Novalee's back as she ran away and beamed, but his smile froze when he thought of an issue.

"Is she just putting on an act?"

If so, Novalee could really win the best actress award.

At that instant, Walter's heart sank.

He took out his phone and called Mango.

"What did you tell her when you called just now?"

"What are you talking about? I'm not your secretary. Also, what's up with you and Novalee?"

Mango thought about it and she felt that this had something to do with the secret that Walter hid from Novalee.

Then, Walter said gloomily, "You don't have to worry about this and it doesn't matter whether you're Hadley or not... Anyway, what's up? Do you not need to serve Mr. Ye?"

"Come on, Walter, why do sense such a strong hint of jealousy in your voice?"

Mango felt that Walter was dissatisfied and

jealous.

It was no wonder that Nathaniel didn't get angry at him as no one would be able to reproach him when he was in such a state.

Then, Walter said straightforwardly, "Bah! Both of you are the same... Is there something wrong with your senses? How am I jealous?"

"You clearly are. Is it because of Novalee that you feel troubled deep down?"

"Yes! So what? It's all for your sake..."

However, Walter felt that he was just lying to himself after saying this.

Nevertheless, Mango did not expose him as she smiled and said, "The jade tycoon is called Bosco and Nathan seems to know him. I will tell you more about his background if you're interested. Also, I'm planning to go and meet Bosco after Nanny Zhang's funeral tomorrow, but don't worry as Nathan and I will check it out for you."

"Thank you."

Walter hung up the phone having said that, but he was even more depressed.

Were Mango and Nathaniel out of their minds?

How was he filled with jealousy?

How was that possible!
