The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 760

"Auntie, the egg is delicious. Try it."

Novalee's smile was particularly warm.

Then, Mango took advantage of this to knock Novalee unconscious with a pocket knife from behind.

Novalee was caught off guard. The plate in her hand fell to the ground and was smashed into pieces, and the egg spilled everywhere.

"How did you..."

Before Novalee could finish, she tilted backward, where Mango was ready to catch her.

"Will she be alright?"

When Sophia saw that Novalee had fainted, she was concerned.

"It's okay, Auntie. There's a van outside. I'll take you out of here as Walter must be worried sick."

Mango placed Novalee on the bed, but after some thought, she carried Novalee out and placed her in the back seat with Sophia.

Sophia got on the car and reached out to gently tuck Novalee's hair behind her ear, whispering, "She was actually pretty kind to me. Is she really Walter's girlfriend?"

"Sort of..."

Mango couldn't lie, so she could only answer like this.

Then, she sent a photo of Sophia and her to Walter and Nathaniel.

When Walter saw that Mango and Sophia were together, he was so relieved that he almost cried. He phoned Mango immediately.

"Mango, is my mother there?"

"Yeah, she's here."

Mango handed the phone to Sophia.

"Auntie, Walter's on the phone."

Sophia quickly took the phone as soon as she heard that it was Walter.

"Walter, mom is here."

"Mom, where have you been? Why did you follow a stranger? You should have called me. Don't you know that I would be worried?"

Walter was crying on the other end.

It was the first time Mango had heard Walter cry so sadly.

Sophia quickly comforted him, "Don't cry, Walter. I'm sorry. She had said that she's your girlfriend. I felt like I had to take a look, so I followed her. I've been in the nursing home for so many years. If your dad hadn't come to see me, I might still be living in a dream right now. Walter, it must be tough for you to support me all these years. This is all my fault. I won't be like this again in the future. I promise to stay safe and healthy. I still want to see you get married and take care of your children for you."

As he heard Sophia's words, Walter's anxiousness was finally relieved.

"Mom, Mango is my friend. You can listen to her. Please do whatever she says. Remember, everyone in this world would hurt your son but she's the only one who won't. She saved me from the fire all those years ago. Mom, Mango saved my life..."

Walter was afraid that Sophia was still wary of Mango, so he quickly told Sophia everything.

As Sophia heard that it was Mango who had saved Walter from the fire, Sophia's heart surged with gratitude.

"I got it. I'll hang up now. See you later."

Then, Sophia ended the call. When she passed the phone back to Mango, she reached out to hold her hand.

"Young lady, my son said that it was you who saved him that time?" "I happened to pass by."

Mango smiled.

She hadn't really thought about it that much. At that time, she was too young. In her memory, she only remembered that there was a fire and a child was crying. She had run in and brought the child outside without a second thought.

It was only a small matter, but Walter had seemed to have engraved it in his heart, and he couldn't help but talk about it from time to time.

The more Sophia looked at Mango, the more she found it pleasing to the eye.

"Young lady, are you married? I think you and Walter would make a perfect match!"

Mango suddenly felt a little speechless.

This might be something that all mothers in the world were concerned about. Even Sophia, who had been in a daze half her life, had popped this question as soon as she heard that Mango had saved Walter's life.

Mango smiled and said, "Auntie, I'm already married. My son and daughter are both four years old. Walter and I are just friends. He and my husband get along well too. Oh, my husband is Nathaniel, and he is from the Ye family."

Sophia paused for a moment, and then said with some disappointment, "Ah, that boy from the Ye Family.”

"Yes, Auntie. Please put on your seatbelt. We're going now."

"Alright."

Although Sophia was a little disappointed, she was still unwilling to let go of Mango's hand.

"You're a good-looking young lady."

"It's plastic surgery."

Mango said without a second thought.

"Why did you have to do that?"

Sophia paused briefly before saying.

Mango smiled and said, "It's because I was too ugly."

"Really? Well, if you hadn't had plastic surgery, maybe you would have been my daughter-in-law. That boy from the Ye family wouldn't have stood the chance."

Upon hearing Sophia's words, Mango chuckled lightly.

She was thinking in her mind that Walter's mother was warm and kind.

After getting on the car, Mango started the engine and drove towards The Ye's Mansion.

However, after some time, the car stopped, and it could no longer be started up.

Mango then realized that the car had ran out of

oil.

This caused Mango to be on the edge of a breakdown. They were in the middle of nowhere and the car had chosen to run out of oil here. What bad luck!

Novalee was the one to blame. Why didn't she fill up the car to a full tank?

"Young lady, what's wrong?"

Sophia saw that the car had stopped, so she could not help but ask.

Mango said with some embarrassment, "Auntie, the car had ran out of oil."

"Huh? Then what should we do? Should we go back on foot?"

Sophia's suggested tugged at Mango's heart.

If they walked home, it might take them a day to reach.

Right at this moment, a car suddenly appeared in front of them and was flashing their headlights at them.

Mango paused for a moment before responding quickly.

Just as the car was about to reach Mango, Sisi quickly threw open the car door.
