The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 731

Walter came out with Novalee and he forced her into the car hastily. Then, he took out his phone and dialed a number after getting into the car.

"Encrypt all my files as top-secret."

Novalee was caught off guard when she heard what Walter said.

"Walter, what's the matter?"

"Stay quiet."

Then, Walter spoke again as the other party did not respond.

"Did you hear what I said?"

On the other hand, Nathaniel held his phone and said helplessly, "Is this how you ask someone to do you a favor?"

"Nathaniel, don't be too arrogant! I won't care to contact you if it weren't for your IT skills."

At that moment, Walter felt displeased.

However, Nathaniel said with a smile, "You're right, you can always seek help from someone else and you don't have to contact me."

"Fine, I don't need your help."

Walter hung up the phone after he said that.

On the other side, Novalee heard Walter mentioned Nathaniel's name, so she asked, "Isn't Nathaniel Ms. Shen's husband? Is he awake?"

"Don't you wish that he will stay in a coma for the rest of his life? It's really difficult to get along with a man like him and I'd rather he stay unconscious until he dies."

Having said that, Walter picked up his phone again and called Zion directly.

"Zion, can you do me a favor?"

Zion was a little puzzled as Walter hadn't contacted him for a long time. So, he was extra vigilant as Walter called him so suddenly and his tone was also strangely gentle.

"What are you up to?"

"Help me encrypt all my files, alright?"

Zion felt relieved when he heard this.

"How will I benefit from doing this?"

"What do you want then?"

Then, Zion propped up his chin and said, "I haven't thought about it yet, but will you be willing to give me anything that I want?"

"Sure, I can give you whatever you want except for my wife and my own life."

"Perfect! I've recorded what you said and you can't take your words back as I'll ask it from you when I figure out what I want."

At that instant, Walter's mouth twitched at Zion's words.

"Of course...you're extremely cunning just like your wily father."

"Uncle Song, are you talking about me? I inherited most of my genes from my mother though... Are you saying that she is sly and scheming? Ah, I have to tell her this so that she wouldn't be in the dark."

"Zion!"

Walter really wanted to strangle this stinky boy to death.

"Ouch! I might go deaf... What if I can't use the computer anymore?"

At that moment, Walter reminded himself repeatedly to calm down.

After all, it was easier to persuade Zion than Nathaniel.

So, Walter took a few deep breaths before he said with a smile, "Zion you're a good boy and I know that you're the best, so can't you do me a favor?"

"Oh, don't even try to coax me. I'm having goose bumps all over."

Zion didn't appreciate it at all and rage pulsed through Walter in an instant.

He found it strange that Mango gave birth to a son like Zion.

At that moment, Walter was so angry that he almost got out of breath.

Then, Zion felt satisfied, so he continued, "Forget it, I won't argue with you as I don't want others to accuse me of bullying an old man."

"An old man? Zion, do you really think that I don't dare to hit you?"

"I'll tell my mom!"

"Are you even a man? No man would go to his mother after picking a fight! Zion, aren't you ashamed of yourself?"

However, Zion said straightforwardly, "Uncle Song, I'm just a boy and not an adult, but you are a man yet you're arguing with a young kid like me and you can't even keep your composure... What's wrong with you?"

Walter was so frustrated at that moment.

He thought that Zion had entirely defeated his purpose of calling him and it was far beyond what he intended to do.

"I'm hanging up."

At that instant, Walter felt that he was just getting himself into trouble and there was no point in him calling Nathaniel and Zion for nothing.

However, he really couldn't find help from anyone else when it came to IT issues.

Just when Walter was about to hang up the call, Zion said with a smile, "Alright! It's all done and no one would be able to retrieve your information unless the other party is the world's top hacker."

Then, Walter paused for a moment before he let out a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, stinky boy."

"You're welcome. Don't forget what you owe me."

Having said that, Zion hung up.

On the other hand, Novalee heard their conversation and she looked at Walter with curiosity and asked, "Who's this? He's a child!"

"He's Mango's son."

"Uh? Ms. Shen has a son?"

Novalee said it so loudly that Walter was shocked.

"Is it strange that she has a son? She has a husband and it would be weird if she doesn't have a child, isn't it? What's with your expression?"

"Ms. Shen looks really young though."

"She's almost 30 years old, is that considered young?"

Walter didn't realize that he was no longer trying to defend Mango and perhaps he had already considered Novalee on the same boat as him as he was with her.

Novalee was stunned and she didn't know to respond as she didn't expect Walter to talk about it so calmly and nonchalantly.

Didn't he like Mango?

He seemed to be indifferent to the fact that Mango had a son and he wasn't affected by it at all, neither was he upset.

At that point, Novalee felt that she couldn't understand Walter.

However, Walter ignored what Novalee was thinking and he whispered, "Fasten your seat belt and we'll go back to the hotel now."
