The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 812

"Nathaniel, Mango, are you guys leaving so soon? Don't you care about your comrade anymore?"

Islas voice resounded all of a sudden. Upon hearing this, Nathaniel paused in his tracks.

Mango knew that Nathaniel had a soft spot for Isla. Although he looked cold and merciless, he actually poured out his heart and soul for his mother. Unfortunately, Isla still let him down.

Mango held his wrist tightly, for fear that Nathaniel would fall into Isla's trap.

Nathaniel was in a dilemma and he was having mixed emotions. However, he was able to suppress his urge when he thought of all the misdeeds that Isla had done. Besides, Mango's tight grasp reminded him of the things that he should treasure the most.

Nathaniel smiled at Mango and slowly turned his head around.

Mango followed his gaze worriedly and she was shocked to find Merle being tied up on the side. He looked weak and helpless, and it seemed that his bones had been fractured.

Blood was dripping down his forehead.

Mango suddenly felt concerned and uncomfortable.

Although Merle betrayed her, he ended up like this because of her and Nathaniel.

Mango wanted to save him, but Nathaniel grabbed her hand and stopped her.

"Isla Fang, what the hell are you trying to do? Don't you think it's ridiculous to threaten us with one of your subordinates?"

Nathaniel didn't even view her as his mother anymore. He was determined to break off all ties with her when he decided to disband the Dark Night Empire.

Suddenly, Isla appeared out from the darkness.

She had a lot of bodyguards by her side, which created an ostentatious presence. However, Mango knew that she was actually afraid deep down.

She was afraid that Nathaniel would kill her.

"Isla, do you dare to come out and face us alone?"

Mango looked at Isla provocatively.

Isla gritted her teeth in anger, but she didn't fall into the trap.

"Mango, you have such a sharp tongue. Why don't you shut up? There's nothing you can do to save Merle anyways."

"Why should I save him? Isn't he under you?"

Mango understood what Nathaniel meant the moment he pulled her back. She smiled brightly as if she wasn't affected in the slightest.

Isla was slightly taken aback. Perhaps she hadn't expected Mango to react that way.

In her impression, Mango was kind, gentle, and strong. Besides, she was always loyal to her close friends, but how could she not care about Merle now?

"Mango, don't forget this, if it weren't for Merle, you wouldn't have been able to take Desmond away and you wouldn't even be able to meet Nathaniel."

"So?"

Mango looked at Isla with a smile.

Isla was agitated.

Why wasn't Mango affected by it?

"What do you mean? Don't you treat Merle as a friend? He became like this because of you. Don't you care about him?"

Mango smiled again. She looked at Isla and Merle. Then, she said coldly, "He betrayed our friendship. Perhaps I would still treat him as my friend when we met at the Underground City, and perhaps I would even risk my life to save him.

However, ever since he decided to stand by your side, he doesn't deserve to be my friend at all. Even if he helped me just now, that doesn't mean anything to me. No matter what, he's still one of your subordinates. Just do as you wish."

After saying that, Mango turned around and walked away with Nathaniel.

Merle felt as if his heart had been broken into pieces when he heard this.

He and Mango used to have a close relationship. However, all their promises had shattered into pieces.

He had made a wrong choice, which would make him live in regret for the rest of his life.

As he looked at Mango leaving, he suddenly recalled how she used to smile at him brightly.

She used to be so kind and gentle to him. She even entrusted her to him. Despite all that, he was the one who didn't cherish it.

He knew that it was no use living in regret and he could never turn back time now. However, if there was an opportunity left for him, he would have chosen to give up everything and stand by her side.

Unfortunately, everything was too late.

Merle's eyes were full of infatuation and regret.

When Isla saw Mango turning away without hesitation, she was truly enraged and she threw her walking stick towards Merle.

"Useless a*shole! You've given up your life for her, but look at how she treated you. Do you think you did the right choice by betraying me for her sake?"

Islas shouted in a loud voice as if she wanted Mango to hear it.
