The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 928

Nathaniel was afraid he would disturb Mango's sleep, so he quickly got up and walked out.

He saw Newell and Sisi coming out as well as soon as he went downstairs. It seemed that they were going out to see who was there.

Nathaniel said, "Go and take a rest. I will go out and have a look."

"Nathaniel, let me go out instead."

"It's alright. I think it's Thomas."

Hearing Nathaniel's words, Sisi pulled Newell away.

Thomas was Nathaniel's assistant. There should be no problem since they were close.

When Nathaniel saw them go back, he got up and went out.

It was indeed Thomas, but he was not in a good state.

"What's wrong?"

Nathaniel rarely saw Thomas like this. He didn't look this haggard, even when Rainie wanted to break up with him.

Thomas pulled his tie, as it seemed like it was

choking him.

"Nothing, I was just a little bored. I thought of coming to your place for some drinks."

His eyes were bloodshot, and it was obvious that he hadn't had a good rest recently.

Nathaniel frowned slightly and said, "You've never drunk previously."

"I just suddenly felt like drinking a little bit. I don't have many friends, so I thought of you. If you are busy, forget it. I will go to the bar myself."

"Come to the cellar with me. My wine is much better than the wine in the bar."

Nathaniel patted Thomas on the shoulder.

Thomas nodded.

The two of them went to the wine cellar. Nathaniel told the servant his whereabouts in case Mango got up and couldn't find him.

When Thomas arrived at the wine cellar, he picked up the wine and drank it without hesitation.

Nathaniel didn't worry about the costs and allowed Thomas to do whatever he wanted.

Thomas was not a man who would put himself in such a state. In fact, for so many years, Thomas had been strict with himself. He had always accomplished his duties and never overstepped any boundaries. Even if Nathaniel said that they were brothers, Thomas still couldn't cross the line. In Thomas's heart, Nathaniel was his saviour and boss. Although they were friends, he was still scared to overstep.

However, he was acting like a little boy who had just been provoked right now. He had forgotten that Thomas could act like that as he never thought that the latter would end up in such a state. However, right now, something probably happened, and Thomas couldn't deal with it now.

Over the years, Thomas had developed well under Nathaniel's support. Even if he left the Ye family, he was still someone many people in the upper class looked up to. Now, it was likely that he was in such a state because of Rainie.

But since Thomas didn't want to talk about it, he didn't ask and waited until the former would tell him on his own.

Nathaniel only took a bottle of red wine and sipped it. He didn't drink much, but Thomas had drunk the whole bottle.

He would be drunk in a while if he kept drinking like this.

Nathaniel picked up his phone and asked someone to prepare the guest room for him.

As expected, Thomas was drunk half an hour later.

His taste in wine was great. After getting drunk, he fell asleep there. Except for his red face and the smell of alcohol, no one could tell that he was drunk.

Nathaniel carried him into the guest room and asked someone to take care of him before returning to the bedroom.

Mango had already woken up and was changing the designs of drawings on her computer. She saw Nathaniel entering the room and smelled alcohol.

"Did you drink too?"

"Yeah, I drank some."

Nathaniel knew Mango's current situation and said with a faint smile, "I'm going to take a shower."

"All right."

Mango felt that this pregnancy was a little troublesome because there were many smells that she was sensitive to.

When Nathaniel went to take a shower, Mango's mind was a little empty.

Thomas came to Nathaniel for a drink. This was expected, and Mango could hardly believe that this had happened.

What on earth happened?

Did Rainie have something to do with this?

She wanted to call Rainie but gave up at the end.

Everyone had their own life and privacy. She wouldn't ask if Rainie didn't want to tell her about it. She believed that if Rainie could solve it, she would definitely solve it herself.

Mango's heart was filled with worry, and she had an anxious gaze.

When Nathaniel saw Mango like this, he couldn't help but hug her from behind.

"Are you worried about Rainie?"

"Yes, aren't you worried about Thomas?"

Mango didn't deny it. She leaned against the warm chest behind her.

Nathaniel got on the bed and took her into his arms while whispering, "They are both adults. No matter what happens, they can solve it on their own. Thomas is not an impulsive person. Even if he hurt himself, he would not hurt Rainie. Don't worry."

"I know, so I didn't ask or intervene. However, I think it's strange. Didn't Uncle Blu come back? So, I don't think there shouldn't be any problems between Rainie and Thomas."

"Yes, but Rainie's father is not in a good state."

Nathaniel had originally wanted to hide it from Mango, but it was now the time. He didn't want

Mango to worry about him.

"What do you mean?"
