Mango actually saw Gisella here!
After what happened with Kolton, she could no longer remember Gisella. She did not even think of where Kolton had taken her and what would happen to her. Now that she had run into Gisella in the hospital, she was a little curious.
"Why are you here?"
Without hesitation, Mango walked over.
A trace of anger flashed across Gisella's eyes when she saw that it was Mango.
"Did you hurt Uncle Ye?"
Her tone was full of resentment, as if Mango had dug up their ancestral graves.
Mango watched as she defended Kolton as if she was Koiton's biological daughter. This feeling was indescribably uncomfortable.
"He brought this upon himself. It's good enough that he didn't harm anyone. Karma would come for him, regardless of whether I was involved or not."
"Hah! Mango, don't be too smug! Aren't you just relying on Nathaniel and the Hans family to protect you? If it weren't for them, who do you think you are?"
Gisella said angrily, "If you grew up in an orphanage like me, where you ate leftover food and slept under the bridge, I don't believe you can act as prideful as you are now."
After saying that, Gisella slammed into Mango and then left.
Mango stumbled and almost fell. However, she did not say anything but follow Gisella into the hospital.
Gisella went into a ward.
Mango's heart skipped a beat as she followed.
She saw Mrs. Shen lying on the bed with an IV drip attached to her while coughing repeatedly. Mr. Shen was sitting on the side. He had a lot more white hair on his temples and looked much older.
"Mom and Dad, I'm back."
Gisella walked over and took out two mangos from her pocket before handing them over.
"We're in the hospital. It's easy to get bad if we buy too much. I just bought two for mom to satisfy her cravings."
Gisella handed the two mangos to her mother.
Mrs. Shen was satisfied and said with a smile, "You are so considerate. Why did you buy me mangoes? I can't eat anything now. You eat it. I know you like them."
She then gave the mangoes to Gisella.
Gisella shook her head and said, "I have plenty of time to eat, and I'm still young. You eat them. When you're done, dad and I will take you away. I've already put up our house to sell on the Internet. If anyone is interested, the agent will call me. We'll go to a smaller city and live a good life. Don't worry! You're my biological parents. Although you've lost me since I was a kid, I won't leave you alone."
When Mango heard these words from outside, she was immediately dumbfounded.
Mr. and Mrs. Shen were leaving Ocean City?
Why didn't she know about this?
When Kolton imprisoned her, did they know about her situation?
Mango frowned slightly. She pondered for a moment before knocking on the door and entering.
"Mom and Dad, what's wrong with you? Why didn't you tell me you're in the hospital?"
Mango's sudden appearance caught both Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen off guard.
"Mango? Why are you here?"
Mr. Shen's expression was a little evasive, while Mrs. Shen directly turned her face away, as they did not dare to look at Mango.
"Mom, are you sick?"
Mango wanted to move forward, but Gisella stopped her.
"Hah! What are you doing here? Do you think that if you came here and acted mercifully, we would forget that all of this happened because of you? If it weren't for you, would Nathaniel do this?"
"Huh? What do you mean? What does Nathaniel have to do with this?"
Mango was confused.
Mr. Shen quickly said, "It's nothing. Gisella and I have discussed that we wanted to go to a smaller city. The pace of life there is relatively slow, and it's suitable for retirement. With Nathan protecting you and the Hans family backing you up, we can rest assured. It would only make you uncomfortable if we're here. So, we should leave instead."
"Dad, what do you mean? When have I ever despise you? Or did Nathan say something?"
Mango could hear what Mr. Shen was trying to imply.
