The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 86

"Mango! Mango, I'm here!"

Nathaniel quickly stepped forward and hugged Mango tightly, but she was still crying and shouting, and she even kicked and punched Nathaniel.

"Nathaniel, you are so cruel! This is our child! How can you do this to me?"

Mango's tears poured out like a released flood and it instantly soaked Nathaniel's clothes.

"Mango, open your eyes and look at me. You're dreaming! Wake up!"

"No! It hurts! It really hurts! The fire is burning on me! Who can save me and my child?"

Mango pushed Nathaniel away and hugged herself tightly, but her hands subconsciously covered her belly, just like what happened five years ago when the big fire started.

Nathaniel's heart was suddenly torn apart.

Five years ago, he didn't see what Mango had experienced in that big fire with his own eyes, but now as he looked at this scene, he felt as if his heart had been ripped apart.

Was there anyone trying to save her when she was struggling in the big fire five years ago?

Where was Newell?

At that time, he was his most capable bodyguard and assistant. He specifically sent him to protect Mango. How could he let Mango experience all of this?

Nathaniel was about to step forward when he heard a childish voice.

"Why are you here?"

Nathaniel looked back slightly and saw Zion's sleepy eyes immediately become alert the moment he saw him.

"Zion, your mommy..."

Before Nathaniel finished his words, he saw Zion quickly jump out of bed. Before he could put on his shoes, he ran directly to Mango's side and gently held her hand. He put her hand on his face and whispered, "Mommy, I'm fine. I'm Zion, your son Zion. Don't be afraid. The fire has passed, and I'm still alive. Mommy, don't be afraid."

After that, Zion stretched out his arms and hugged Mango tightly.

Although small as he was, his small arm seemed to have possessed infinite power, which strangely comforted Mango.

Mango gradually calmed down from the thrill, but she still didn't wake up. She just hugged Zion tightly and kept shouting Zion's name.

Zion stretched out one of his arms and patted Mango's back gently, just like the way Mango coaxed Zion when he was a child.

Nathaniel's eyes suddenly turned red.

He could tell from this situation that it was not the first time for Zion to do this. Looking at his son's little body and how he was comforting Mango so proficiently, Nathaniel's tears was swirling in his eyes.

"Has your mommy always been like this in the past few years?"

"Shh—"

Zion put his index finger to his mouth, indicating that Nathaniel should stop talking.

When Nathaniel first entered the room, he could still feel the warmth and happiness that filled in this room, but at this moment, he felt unbearably depressed, as if the enormous pressure was pouring on him from all directions and almost smashed him.

He had never seen Mango when she was asleep before, but now seeing her like this, he felt so heartbroken that he could hardly breathe.

This was his wife, the woman he loved deeply!

However, he made her suffer all the pain alone, for five years!

The person who had been with her for the past five years turned out to be a four-year-old child!

What kind of husband was he?

What kind of father was he?

Nathaniel blamed himself while Zion had completely calmed Mango down.

He breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Nathaniel. He said in a low voice, "Can you help me carry mommy to bed? The ground here is very damp and I'm afraid that mommy can't stand it." Nathaniel quickly got up and carefully carried Mango onto the bed.

He wanted to turn on the light, but Zion stopped him.

"Mommy is afraid of the light, and she is also afraid of the fire. At night, she normally doesn't turn on the light. If it wasn't for drawing the design manuscript, she wouldn't have stayed up late."

Nathaniel's heart ached again.

Those who had been burned by the fire were all afraid of light and fire.

She used to be such an outgoing woman, how could she only live in the dark now?

Nathaniel's heart unbearably and he gently pulled over the quilt to cover Mango.

Zion had put on his shoes sensibly and also put on his clothes.

"Let's go out to talk. Don't disrupt mommy. She sleeps very light."

After listening to Zion's words, Nathaniel took a look at his sensible son again. He took off his coat and put it on Zion's body, then he picked him up.

Zion didn't struggle either. He let Nathaniel carry him out of the room and then go into the helicopter cabin.
