The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 824

"Who is it?"

Mango was alerted and she looked around subconsciously. Unfortunately, she didn't see anyone show up.

She quickly opened the slip of paper in her hand and the words on it made her frown.

"If you want your mother to be safe, you'd better ask Nathaniel to keep his hands away from the Fang family."

Mango's heart was pounding.

It had been a long time since she heard from Queena, which made her concerned. Last time, she even asked Merle to search for Queena's whereabouts. However, he was immediately caught by Isla before he could do anything.

She was terrified and worried now that this threatening note had silently appeared in her hand.

Although she was not with the Ye Family, it was Marissa's funeral today. There were only Desmond and Nathaniel's men around. Surprisingly, no one took notice of the person who had stuffed the note into her hand. This alone made her tremble with fear.

Perhaps it was someone from the Dark Night Empire that Nathaniel had trained himself?

Mango was shocked by her own speculation.

"Madam, are you alright?"

Haniya lost her balance and fell onto the ground. Although her limbs were injured, she quickly came to Mango and checked on her condition.

Mango held the note tightly and said with a straight face, "I'm fine. You should visit the doctor later."

"It's just a fall. I'll bandage it myself. By the way, who was the person that approached us just now? Why didn't I see them?"

At the thought of this mysterious encounter, Haniya immediately felt a chill down her spine.

She couldn't help but look at Marissa's cemetery and whispered, "Could it be..."

"Don't be superstitious! Even if there are really ghosts, Marissa will not harm me. Let's go back first."

Mango looked around her and did not find anyone suspicious. Then, she returned to the ward feeling rather uneasy.

At the same time, Nathaniel and Desmond were dealing with some matters. After Marissa's burial, Desmond settled Marissa's parents down and he planned to bring them to Ocean City with Nathaniel.

When Nathaniel returned to the ward, he saw Mango looking out of the window in a daze. Then, he gave her a sudden hug from behind.

"What is it? What are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing. I just feel that life is really fragile. Marissa was only in her early twenties, but she's gone too soon."

Mango was feeling sad and emotional.

"Life is always unpredictable, so we must cherish our lives. We will never know what might happen in the next minute. The only thing we can do is to enjoy our life to the fullest and leave no regrets. We have each other and we will stay together forever until the end of our lives."

Upon hearing this, Mango rolled her eyes at him.

"What are you talking about? Nathan, I have something to tell you."

After Mango thought about it over and over again, she finally decided to tell him.

"What's the matter?"

"Look at this."

She handed the note to Nathaniel.

Nathaniel's face turned pale when he saw the note.

"Who gave it to you?"

"I don't know. When I went back to the car at Marissa's funeral, I was hit by someone and then this note appeared in my hand. However, Haniya and I didn't see anyone. After that, I checked the surveillance cameras nearby but the video was blurry. It seemed to be a woman with short stature, but I couldn't see her face clearly. Take a look."

Mango sent the video to him.

As he looked at the video, his gaze suddenly turned a little cold.

"It seems that the people of the Fang family are not willing to give up. I'll go to meet Isla after I go back to Ocean City tomorrow."

"Let me go. Since she found someone to hand me this note, she must be waiting to meet me. She may not be able to get what she wants from you, but it might be possible from me."

Mango voiced out her thoughts to Nathaniel.

Nathaniel looked at her with some concern.

"I'm a little worried about you because of your current health."

"There's nothing to worry about. Isla is locked up in detention and there are police guarding her. I'm not a person who can be easily manipulated by her. I just want to know what she intends to do."

"What else will there be? I bet she's just trying to carry out her crimes."

Nathaniel extremely despised Isla Fang.

This woman had harmed so many innocent lives.

Then, Mango said in a low voice, "My mother hasn't been around for a long time, so I'm quite worried about her. Back then, no one realized when she left Ocean City. I'm even more worried now that there's no news of her at all and this note has something to do with the Fang family. I know that you're concerned about me and you're afraid that I'll be bullied by Isla, but I still have to do something for my mother. Furthermore, my aunt doesn't have much time left. I hope that my mother will be able to meet her once."

"You're always considerate about others, but why don't you at least think for yourself? Don't you know that I'll be heartbroken seeing you going through all these by yourself?"

Nathaniel let out a sigh, but he did not try to stop Mango. He was willing to do anything to make her happy that he even compromised with her decision.

Of course, Mango knew that he was worried sick about her. However, she smiled and said, "You really don't have to worry about me. I'll bring Haniya along. You also know what Haniya is capable of. If anything happens to me, Haniya will be there to help me. Don't worry."
