The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 831

"What more can I do? It seems that Nathaniel didn't teach you anything good either. Did he ask you to go against your elders, didn't he? After all, Isla is his mother and she raised him. How can he be so heartless towards his own mother?"

Mango wanted to retort his words, but she broke out in cold sweat under his forceful rebuttal.

Her grandfather, whom she had just met for the first time, was already beating her up and it was really annoying.

"What else can you do other than bullying your own daughter and granddaughter? Seeing that you've been living here after your retirement, you probably survived from pure luck. You didn't have any real skills, don't you? Otherwise, how can you be so unreasonable?"

Even though she had been caught and subdued by him, she was still offending him in an unforgiving manner.

Brantley was displeased.

"What the f*ck do you know about me?!"

"You're right, but what you've done is too embarrassing. Isla is a nuisance, and yet you chose to help her. You don't deserve to live here!"

Mango didn't care about what would happen to her. Anyway, she just couldn't compromise against him as it would be against her own conscience.

Moreover, this old man placed her mother under house arrest. At the thought of this, she couldn't suppress the burning anger in her heart anymore and she almost had an urge to burn this place.

Brantley had once again exerted force onto her wrist. Although she felt as if her hand was about to break, she gritted her teeth and endured it without making a single sound.

Just when she thought that Brantley would fracture her hand, he suddenly let go of her.

She quickly took a few steps back and it almost felt as if she had been given a second chance a life. Although Brantley was very old, he was still strong and this was a fact. If they really fought, she did not know if she could be on par with Brantley.

"Take a seat."

Brantley suddenly restrained his anger and sighed before he sat in his original position.

Mango was taken aback.

What was going on?

However, she didn't want to stand there. After all, she didn't want to act like a child who had just been punished after she had been bullied by Brantley.

Mango sat in her seat and her glass of water had turned a little cold.

She wanted to ask someone to fetch her some warm water, but she decided not to because she was afraid of what the old man would do to her.

Meanwhile, Brantley noticed it and shouted to the servant, "Give her a glass of hot water."

"Yes sir."

One of the servants responded and came in with a cup of hot water as well as some fruits and snacks.

"Eat up, your body is not as good as before and you need to replenish your energy. Think about your child."

Brantley waved his hand after he said that, and the servant went out again and closed the door.

Mango felt that Brantley was simply a weird old man.

"I don't want to eat it. What if I get poisoned?"

Upon hearing this, Brantley was once again aggravated.

"You're really the child of the Hans family. Your words can really anger a person. If I want to poison you to death, I would've done it earlier, alright?" "That's hard to say. What if you want to see me suffer in pain? Otherwise, why would you keep my mom under house arrest?"

Mango was simply being unreasonable.

Meanwhile, Brantley was burning with rage and he quickly drank some water to suppress his anger.

"I knew it, I shouldn't have let your mom stay with the Hans family. The little b*stard that she gave birth to will really make me die of anger."

"You're still living well now, aren't you?"

"That's because you haven't seen me before!"

After saying that, Brantley realised that he was behaving like a bad-tempered child.

"I don't wanna care about you anymore. Anyway, the baby in your belly does not belong to our family."

Mango suddenly felt that Brantley looked somewhat cute when he acted like this.

She calmed down and whispered, "Grandpa, please release my mom. She's so old and she has lived a hard life. How many more years can you lock her up? Besides, why did you do this to her? She's an adult now! You locked her up just because she didn't listen to you. Isn't your parenting style a little too barbaric?"

"So what if I am? What's the matter?"

Brantley began to act unreasonably again.

This was something that Mango didn't expect from him.

She wanted to laugh, but she did not dare to do so. Then, she stood up and walked behind him. She whispered while she held his shoulders with both hands, "Grandpa, why do you have to help Isla? You know what she has done. She can't be released just like this. You are so capable, yet you can't bail her out. So, how can I do that?"

It seemed that Mango was trying to persuade him gently. Upon hearing her words, Brantley let out a sigh and said in a low voice, "Of course I knew about all the misdeeds that she has done, but it's not a good time to catch her right now."

"Why? You have to tell me the reason."

"Why are you just like your mother? Why do you have to question everything? Do you know that people that behave like you in the military will be shot dead directly?"

Brantley was still so stubborn and headstrong at his age.

Mango, on the other hand, felt that he looked very adorable.
