"Boss, what are you..."
His men couldn't help but ask when they saw how Kolton was staring at Mango. They thought that he was interested in her, but he glared at them.
"I'm not interested in her. I was just..."
Kolton did not continue speaking, but the corners of his mouth lifted into a smile slightly.
Mango suddenly felt as if someone was looking at her. She immediately opened her eyes and looked directly into the camera.
Both of their eyes met, and they stared at each other tensely.
Mango faintly smiled and turned around to continue sleeping.
Kolton had an upset expression on his face after seeing this.
How cocky could this woman be?
Did she really think that Kolton wouldn't do anything to her?
Look at her!
Did she look like a hostage?
She looked like she came here for vacation!
"Tell Mango to clean up the warehouse."
Kolton suddenly spoke.
He was annoyed when she saw how relaxed Mango was
"Yes!"
His men immediately went to carry out his orders.
Mango was sleeping soundly when someone woke her up.
"The boss asked you to clean up the warehouse. Here are your cleaning materials."
Jad threw a broom and other tools right in front of Mango.
This angered Queena.
"Are you kidding me? My daughter is pregnant. Hah! How dare you let a pregnant woman do cleaning chores? Fine, if you're only trying to humiliate us, I'll do it!"
"Mom, he asked me to go, so stop fighting. I'll go."
Mango did not really care.
She ignored Queena's objections as she picked up the broom and the rag. Then, she followed Jad to the warehouse.
Although Kolton had called this place a warehouse, it only contained pieces of cloths that could be used to make new clothes.
Jad left after he brought Mango over.
Mango looked around and found that the space was quite big, but it was a little messy.
She had nothing to do as well, so she began to clean.
There were many pieces of cloth and some old clothes. She didn't know whether she should throw them away or not.
Mango gathered the old clothes together. Suddenly, she saw a shirt covered with bloodstains.
The clothes were probably old because the bloodstains on them were dark-coloured. Hence, she wouldn't have spotted the dark stains if she did not look at the clothes closely.
Mango's brows furrowed slightly. She took the blood-stained clothes under her nose and smelled them. However, she could not smell anything.
However, the clothes were torn.
Whose clothes were these?
Mango suddenly thought of Sisi' mother.
Could these clothes belong to her?
If so, would Marrisa allow such a thing to happen under her nose?
A million thoughts ran through Mango's mind.
However, she probably would not find an answer to her question
Mango hid the bloodstained clothes and continued to clean the warehouse. However, she did not find anything else.
After cleaning, she felt a little tired and sat on a chair to rest.
Although it was called a warehouse, she did not find any clues, nor did she find a way to contact the outside world.
The people on the island could survive by eating the crops that they grew themselves.
Mango became a little discouraged.
She packed her things and walked out of the warehouse. She looked at the sunset hanging on the horizon. It appeared that she had stayed in the warehouse for an entire afternoon.
Mango stretched and saw a few servants rushing towards the main hall.
"What's going on?"
She stopped a servant and asked.
The maid said anxiously, "Madam started suffering from vomiting and diarrhoea suddenly! What...what should we do? Our boss is about to kill someone!" "Vomiting and diarrhea?"
Mango's brows creased slightly.
She followed the servant.
Kolton was enraged, and his loud voice could be heard from all corners of the house.
Mango had always thought that although Kolton was ruthless, he still gave off a refined and gentlemanly feeling towards others. But, right now, he was as furious as a tiger that had been provoked. He looked as if he was going to eat all of them alive!
She looked at the basins that were being transported in and out of the room. It was filled with some nasty looking vomit that obviously belonged to Marissa.
"Hey! Don't you have a doctor on this island? Why don't you go out and find a doctor for her? Maybe she's just having some food poisoning!"
Mango opened her mouth.
The room fell silent.
Koiton's eyes instantly turned towards Mango.
"Why are you here?"
"I was passing by, so I decided to take a look."
Mango shrugged without any care.
Koiton's eyes narrowed slightly.
"You just said that she was food poisoned? Were you the one who poisoned her? Get Mango! Now!"
As soon as Kolton gave the order, Jad and the others immediately pinned Mango to the ground.
