The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 748

"Has Henry sent his location to you?"

"Yes. Let's go."

Nathaniel looked at Mango and she nodded her head.

However, they did not see Henry when they drove to that place.

So, Nathaniel called Henry again, but he had switched off his phone.

"Who are you looking for?"

Suddenly, an old man asked when he saw the three of them.

"Sir, we want to know if Henry lives here."

Mango quickly stepped forward and asked with a smile.

The old man looked at Mango and nodded his head as he said, "Yes, he lives here, but he moved away after his sister came over. It's been less than an hour since they left."

"They moved out? Do you know where they're moving to?"

Walter stepped forward and his urgent tone made the old man take a step back subconsciously.

"Who are you? Why are you looking for them?"

The old man was somewhat wary.

Then, Mango shook her head and pulled Walter back.

"Sir, don't worry about him. We're Henry's friends and he told us his whereabouts. Look, this is the location that Henry sent us."

Mango passed Nathaniel's phone to the old man.

When the old man saw that it was Henry's contact, he whispered, "Oh...so Henry told you his location. Well, I don't know what happened. His elder sister urged him to leave after she came over and I think she also asked him to take a break from school. Both of them even argued as Henry did not agree to it. However, Henry is obedient to his sister, so they left after his sister cried. They didn't say where they were heading for and I didn't dare to ask as his sister was really fierce."

Walter's eyes narrowed in an instant after listening to the old man's words.

"She's avoiding us."

"What can we do even if we know that she's avoiding us? We don't even know where they are now or where they're heading for. I think we need to think about it all over again."

Mango knew that Walter was in a bad mood now as no one could tolerate being fooled by others like this.

However, they didn't have any more clues. They had to wait for Henry to turn on his phone again so that they could get in touch with him before they could find Novalee.

Walter sat on a stone disappointedly and said in a low voice, "She has ulterior motives when she approached me, but I didn't lose anything, so I'm sure that she hasn't gotten what she wanted yet. If that's so, why would she escape now and avoid me?"

"Maybe she fell in love with you and she doesn't have the heart to hurt you, so she gave up although she approached you with an ulterior motive initially. Now, she wants to disappear from your life."

However, Mango's words made Walter laugh mockingly.

"Will she be so kind? I'm afraid that she must have some other tricks up her sleeve to deal with me."

"Walter, don't be like this."

Mango couldn't find any other excuse or reason to comfort Walter.

At that moment, Walter's cell phone rang.

He took a glance at it and said with a sneer, "Look, the bank card I gave her has 1 million dollars in it and now she has returned all the money to me.

She really wants to cut ties with me. Why did she even approach me if she did not have the intention to be with me since the beginning? So, she wants to leave now after she has provoked me... I'll not let go of her so easily! I'm not the kind of person who gets bullied so easily and I'll surely take revenge!"

"What are you trying to do?"

Nathaniel knew that Walter wouldn't let go of it as he had to vent his anger.

At that moment, Walter's eyes became increasingly menacing as he looked into the distance and said word by word, "There must be a reason why she did this. I will find her no matter where she is and find out the reason! I treated her with my whole heart yet she wants to leave me so irresponsibly? In her dreams!"

"How can we help you?"

"You don't have to as you've already helped me enough. I'll deal with the rest of the issues on my own."

Walter stood up and patted the dirt off his body before he looked at Mango and Nathaniel and said, "Sorry for delaying your flight back to Ocean City. Please sign the contract before you leave now that you're here." "Walter, I really can't take it."

Mango felt that this emerald mine was truly too valuable.

"Are you looking down on me?"

"It has nothing to do with that, Walter. Mango and I can't stay here, so how about we invest in the project and well be one of the shareholders while you will manage mine by yourself. You can decide if you want the jade to be manufactured into jewelry or to be sold off directly. We can divide the profit later on, is that alright? The same goes for the tourism company and we can cooperate with each other. What do you think?"

Nathaniel voiced out his opinion.

Then, Walter smiled and said, "Indeed, you would never suffer any losses, would you, Nathaniel? You just want to earn some profit without putting in any effort...but I'll accept it since it's for Mango."

"Well, thank you for your agreement..."

Nathaniel gave Walter an angry look.

Then, Walter patted him on the shoulder with a smile before waving his hand and left.

"I'll leave now. You two should go back on your own and I won't send you off."

"Walter..."

Mango still wanted to say something, but she was stopped by Nathaniel.

They noticed from Walter's gaze that he seemed to be less warm-hearted than before although he was still really wild and carefree.

Perhaps Novalee had affected Walter's feelings and he became less affectionate because of her. Both Nathaniel and Mango knew that it would take some time before Walter could get over the pain.

"Haih...relationship issues are really complicated..."

Mango shook her head.

Then, Nathaniel held her hand tightly and said, "It's not easy for us to get together too, so dear, we should cherish it."

At that instant, Mango started laughing.
