The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 867

Nathaniel was woken up by Zion.

He felt really helpless the moment he saw Zion's disdainful expression.

Nathaniel had slept so long because he was too exhausted and that Mango was lying comfortably in his embrace.

At that moment, Nathaniel woke up in an instant before he tiptoed out of the bedroom as he was afraid that he might wake Mango. Then, he asked as he saw Zion waiting for him by the door, "What's wrong?"

"It's already late at night and I'm hungry, can you make some food? Sisi and Newell went out to settle some issues, so I wanted to order takeout, but Mateo told us that we're still kids and we shouldn't eat out as the foods are really oily. So, It's unhealthy for us since we're still growing. However, I really can't take it anymore, so I woke you up to make me some food."

Zion felt really wronged as he spoke.

Then, Nathaniel looked at the time and he realized that it was already past five o'clock in the evening.

He said sorrily, "I know, I'm sorry as I've overslept. I'll go wash up and cook for you."

"Oh...

Zion walked down the stairs very proudly having done that.

However, Nathaniel felt that something was wrong.

He put on his clothes and pants before he figured it out.

"Oh right, what about Rita and Wisdom? How come Rita didn't come and wake me up when she's such a glutton?"

Nathaniel sighed when he recalled how Rita looked at him fearfully in the afternoon.

At that instant, Zion turned his head suddenly and asked in surprise, "What? You didn't send Rita away?"

Nathaniel was also stunned.

"Are you kidding me? Why should I send them away? The two of them were still watching TV in the living room when I came back and they went to their bedroom when I came upstairs too. What's wrong? Where are they?"

Zion rushed down the stairs having heard what Nathaniel said and he opened the door to Rita's room immediately.

Rita's coat was still there... Did she not wear a coat before leaving the house?

At that moment, Nathaniel sensed that something went wrong.

He hurried down the stairs along with Zion.

"I'll get the CCTV recordings."

"The cameras are under maintenance today as there's been a blackout, so there are no recordings at all."

Nathaniel felt really uneasy after hearing Zion's words.

"What?"

The two of them glanced at each other before Zion rushed out of the house after taking his coat.

"Wait, I'll go with you, but I'll have to let Mango know first, or else she'll be worried."

Zion wanted to retort but he nevertheless nodded when he noticed the seriousness in Nathaniel's irresistible eyes.

Nathaniel went up the stairs in a flash and he woke Mango up reluctantly as she was sleeping soundly.

"Mango, I think that we'll have to go out."

"What's wrong?"

Mango yawned as she still felt sleepy although she had a peaceful nap.

Nathaniel felt sorry for her but he said in a low voice, "Rita and Wisdom went out to play, but they haven't come back yet, so Zion and I will go out and have a look."

"Where can they go? Could they be at Mateo's place?"

Mango rubbed her eyes.

Nathaniel whispered, "I don't know... Take care of yourself at home while I go out with Zion to have a look."

"I'll go with you."

Mango patted her face to wake herself up before she changed her clothes hastily.

It was at this moment that Nathaniel picked up his phone on the bedside table and he saw the message from Rita.

His expression darkened the moment he read her text.

"Rita is in danger."

Nathaniel's voice was cold.

Then, Mango paused for a moment.

She was able to remain calm after having experienced so many issues.

"Do you have any clues?"

Yes!"

Nathaniel became murderous at that instant and he threw the phone to Zion directly without saying a word.

"Zion, check the location of the sender when the message came in while I'll look into the car plate number... I would like to know who's the one that has the guts to harm my daughter!

Nathaniel turned on his computer and started typing on the keyboard hastily before he began his investigation.

On the other hand, Zion was also busily typing on his laptop to pinpoint the location of Rita when she sent the message.

It didn't take long before Zion found their whereabouts.

"Mr. Ye, they're in the suburbs."

Mango didn't utter a word as she wrapped her clothes around her waist and was the first to leave the house.

At the same time, Nathaniel found out the owner of the car.

He walked out with a menacing expression and called Desmond.

"I'll send you an address... Arrest the owner of this car and bring him to me."

Desmond could tell from Nathaniel's voice that something had happened.

"Alright."

Nathaniel hung up the phone and he got into the car with Zion.

Mango was driving.

She wouldn't do so usually but Nathaniel didn't dare to stop her as he could tell that Mango was filled with anger.

They drove to the place using the address that Zion found and Mango saw the shocking trail of blood along the road towards the end.

Their expressions changed the moment they saw this.
