The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 876

"What!"

Mango thought that she must have heard him wrongly.

How was it possible that he died when he was still fine the day before?

"Did you torture him?"

"No, I didn't. I did use torturous methods to force him to spill the beans but I never really go overboard considering his identity."

Mango's brows furrowed after hearing Desmond's words.

"Have you asked a doctor to check on him?"

"Noah came and he said that Pryce died of myocardial infarction."

Desmond told Mango everything he knew.

"Did he have a heart condition?"

"Uhm... I'm not sure."

At that moment, Mango felt that she had asked a stupid question as she and Nathaniel only came to know Pryce's existence when he appeared, so there was no way they would know about his health condition.

Mango wondered what would Pryce's father do now that Pryce had died here.

Anyhow, Mango was really troubled and her mind went haywire because of Pryce's death, not to mention that this person might not be the real Pryce.

"Hold on, I'll wake Nathan up."

Mango felt that this matter was out of her control.

So, she went upstairs hurriedly, but Nathaniel was asleep and he seemed very tired.

Nevertheless, Mango woke Nathaniel up.

"Nathan, wake up, there's something wrong."

Nathaniel opened his eyes and he hugged Mango subconsciously as he said with a hoarse voice, "You got up so early? I want a hug."

"No, Nathan, something had happened... Pryce is dead."

"Well, who cares?"

Nathaniel answered without giving it a thought, but he woke up all of a sudden after thinking it through.

"What? Who died?"

"Pryce, he died of myocardial infarction and Noah is still there. Do you want to go and have a look now?"

Mango said hastily.

At that instant, Nathaniel was completely awake.

"How did he die all of a sudden?"

"I don't know, but I have a feeling that something isn't right, though I can't pinpoint what's wrong."

Mango had a bad hunch.

Nevertheless, Nathaniel comforted her with a smile when he saw how worried she seemed, "Don't worry, it'll be fine. I'll go and have a look while you stay at home, alright? Just be careful. I'll tell Newell and Sisi to fetch Rita and Wisdom home today so that you don't have to go to the hospital yourself."

"It's okay as I can deal with it on my own... By the way, Zion is going to the military base today as he has decided to be a soldier in the future."

Mango felt that she should tell Nathaniel about this matter.

Nathaniel paused for a moment before he nodded.

"That's great, it's good for this brat to train in the military base so that he can expand his perspectives."

Mango knew that Nathaniel was reluctant to part with Zion although he said that.

"Would you like to have a word with him?"

"Alright."

Nathaniel put on his clothes before going downstairs.

Desmond was waiting for him, but he went straight to Zion's room and knocked on his door.

"Come in."

Zion's voice was cold and he seemed to have a little of Nathaniel's vibe.

Zion was packing his stuff as Nathaniel looked at him and he was really reluctant to part with him deep down.

"Have you really decided on your future?"

Zion paused for a moment before he turned to look at Nathaniel. Then, Zion said with a smile when he saw the sadness in Nathaniel's eyes, "Mr. Ye, you aren't reluctant to part with me, are you?"

"Yeah, I don't want you to leave."

Nathaniel didn't put on an act this time.

Zion was stunned for a moment, but Nathaniel's words warmed his heart.

"I'll come back to visit you every weeked."

"Train hard, alright? You can come back anytime if you can't take it anymore as I'll still be able to raise you even you are a nobody."

Nathaniel rarely said such words in the past and

Zion didn't retort him at this moment. Instead, he went forward and hugged Nathaniel tightly while placing his head on Nathaniel's shoulder before saying in a low voice, "Mr. Ye, I'll be really unwilling to leave if you keep acting like this."

"Just stay if you don't want to leave."

Nathaniel squatted down and hugged Zion tightly.

His son was much sturdier than he was when he first came back and now that Nathaniel thought about it, he hadn't spent much time with Zion over the year.

On the other hand, Zion had the urge to stay, but he let go of Nathaniel decisively when he thought about Wisdom and Rita.

"Mr. Ye, you're so bad... How can you screw your own son's future?"

At that moment, Nathaniel could see tears flashing in Zion's eyes.

What an arrogant brat!

"Alright, just call me if anything happens in the military base."

"All right."

Zion answered obediently.

Then, Nathaniel took out a card and handed it over to Zion.

"Here, be modest in your spending and take good care of yourself, okay?" "Okay."

Zion kept the black card.
