The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 765

"Oh! Oh! Oh!"

Mango wanted to regain control over her body, but it was impossible.

Just as she was about to fall to the ground, Nathaniel held her in his arms right on time.

"What happened?"

"Don't come over here. The floor is slippery. It seems to be oil."

Mango immediately said as she saw Nathaniel was about to come in.

Nathaniel's eyebrows furrowed.

"What is it?"

"It is oil."

Mango eventually confirmed.

She lowered down to the floor slowly with Nathaniel's help and dipped her fingers on the floor then reached out in front of Nathaniel.

Nathaniel sniffed lightly, and the frown on his face deepened.

"Did someone do it on purpose?"

"I don't think it was an accident. This is the stairway entrance of the corridor. It's impossible to spill food oil here, unless it's man-made."

Mango looked at Sophia who was not too far away from her. She sat on the floor and looked helplessly at Mango. She was absolutely startled when she heard Mango's conversation with Nathaniel.

"There is only me, Walter, and the nanny living in here. But the nanny is on leave today."

"Aunt Liu, I'll take you to the hospital first."

Mango nodded at Nathaniel. Nathaniel went out to find some sand and spread it on the stairs. Only then did he allow Mango to bring Sophia out.

Oil covered Sophia's body.

Mango had no other choice but to ask Nathaniel to buy a set of clothes for Sophia to change into. Afterward, they went to the hospital.

Sophia had an osteoporosis problem which made her bones fractured easily when she fell. Therefore, she needed to stay at the hospital for further observation.

Mango stayed behind to accompany her.

Nathaniel asked in a low voice, "Aunt Liu, do you know the address of your nanny?"

"Yeah..."

Sophia quickly gave Nathaniel the address of the nanny.

Mango already knew what Nathaniel was going to do.

She said in a hushed tone, "Be careful. Call me if you need anything."

"Alright. You had a long night tonight."

"I'm fine."

A smile was shared between them before Nathaniel went out.

Looking at how loving the couple was, Sophia couldn't help but sigh, "I wished that you could be my daughter-in-law, but it seems impossible now."

Mango smiled and said, "Aunt Liu, Walter and I are just brothers."

"Nonsense, how can a woman and a man be brothers? Men and women can't have pure friendships. Mango, I know that you are a nice girl, it's just Walter that is not lucky."

Sophia felt more uncomfortable as she thinks about it.

Mango hurriedly said, "Aunt Liu, Walter will find his own true love one day."

"Him? He only found Novalee after so many years. I don't know what it is about that girl that Walter is so attracted to, but I see that Walter does care about her. I hope my son is happy. I just don't want him to get hurt on this road to finding love. Sadly, it seems that many things are out of my reach."

Sophia sighed once again. She held onto Mango's hand and said, "Can you be my goddaughter?"

Mango paused for a moment; it would've been rude of her to say no. So instead, she said, "I need to ask my mother about this."

"Your mother? Oh right, I heard from Walter that you are the daughter of the Hans family, but why are you surnamed Shen? I didn't ask him about it, and he wasn't willing to tell me either. If it's alright with you, may I know why? Of course, if you don't want to, you can forget that I even asked you about it."

Sophia was still very curious about Mango's identity.

Mango smiled and answered, "There's nothing that I can't tell you."

Then she told her everything about Queena and Dennis, as well as the fact that Queena plotted revenge on the Shen family by exchanging their babies.

Sophia's eyes suddenly narrowed.

"What's your biological mother's name?"

"Queena Xiao."

Mango was a little puzzled, but she still answered.

"Do you have her photo?"

Although Mango didn't know why Sophia was looking for Queena's photo, she still nodded her head.

"Yes, I do. I'll look for it."

She took out her mobile phone, found the only photo with Queena in the album, and handed it to her.

"This is my mom, Queena."

When she handed the phone to Sophia, tears began to pool in Sophia's eyes as she looked at it, and eventually, tears began to run down her cheeks.

"Aunt Liu, what's wrong with you?"

Mango was shocked.
