The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 945

"I don't know, but I will ask Ned to check it later."

Nathaniel lowered his eyes and whispered.

It wasn't that Mango didn't want to know. In any case, Nathaniel would take care of all these matters, so she didn't ask any further.

"I'm sleepy. Let's go to sleep."

"Alright, let's go to bed then."

Nathaniel patted Mango's shoulder and watched her fall into a deep sleep before he closed his eyes.

By the time the sun rose the next day, Mango was still sleeping. However, Nathaniel was already awake.

He crept to the room compartment outside and called Ned.

"Check out the car that besieged me yesterday. I remembered the car plate number, but it could be fake. Investigate it thoroughly."

"Yes, Mr. Ye."

After hanging up, Nathaniel went to the balcony and lit up a cigarette.

Who was it?

Who was behind Boston?

Why was anyone going against the Blu family?

Why did they attack Nathaniel into their own hands?

A series of questions flashed across Nathaniel's mind, but he could not find any answers.

When Mango woke up, she saw Nathaniel smoking on the balcony.

He had not smoked for a long time and it was obvious that he was not in a good mood now.

Mango wanted to comfort him, but the phone in her pocket rang.

She glanced down and saw Emberly's name.

Mango was a little surprised.

Emberly had an operation today, hadn't she? Her appointment with Denver would only be at night, so why did Emberly call her in the early morning?

Regardless of what doubts she had, Mango answered the call.

"Emberly?"

Both of them were good friends, and they got along well because same birds flocked together.

"Are you free? Let's have breakfast together."

Emberly responded straightforwardly.

Mango was startled. She glanced at Nathaniel and hesitated, 'Umm... aren't you accompanying your family?¹

"Urgh! My husband took my daughter away with him. Anyway, I'll go to the hospital later. Well, it's up to you. If you don't have time, forget about it."

Emberly was about to hang up at this moment.

Mango said hastily, "Wait! Where are we going to eat?"

"Let's try the bakery downstairs. The one opposite the hotel?"

"Alright, see you soon!"

Although Mango did not know why Emberly was looking for her, this was the first time that Emberly had invited her out for a meal. She still wanted to agree to her invitation.

However, she felt sorry for Nathaniel.

Nathaniel put out the cigarette when he saw Mango was already awake. He stayed at the balcony for a moment before walking into their bedroom.

"Are you awake?"

"Yeah."

Mango smiled. Her feminine and delicate appearance had awakened Nathaniel's desires.

"Hmm? Do you need my help with something?"

Nathaniel gave a faint smile.

Mango coughed and answered, "No. Emberly invited me to have breakfast, so I can't eat with you this morning."

Nathaniel was a little upset.

Why was everyone trying to snatch his wife from him?

"Can I accompany you?"

Nathaniel looked as if he had been wronged, and Mango found his dismayed expression hilarious.

"Nah, we're just two ladies who want to have a private conversation. It's inappropriate for you to come along. Besides, Eugene isn't following us."

"Hah! How can you compare me with him? Eugene is a fool. He doesn't know how to cherish his wife. Just wait and see. He will regret it soon."

Mango was noncommittal on Nathaniel's evaluation of Eugene.

"Why do you say that? Well, I know you felt aggrieved, so I'll accompany you to stroll around City B later. Let me get ready first, you take care of your own breakfast, okay?"

Mango caressed Nathaniel's face as if he was her child.

His face was cold.

It was obvious that he had been outside for quite a long time.

"If there is anything you can't deal with, just leave it. It will be solved sooner or later. Don't worry too much."

Mango went to the bathroom after consoling him.

Nathaniel felt surprised.

She seemed to have matured a lot.

He smiled and shook his head.

After Mango tidied herself up, she quickly went downstairs and saw Emberly standing in front of the bakery in her androgynous outfit.

"Why are you so early?"

Mango quickly sat down. Then, she ordered a steamed dumplings and a bowl of porridge.

Emberly said while eating, "I have something to do later, so I have to get up early. I have an operation to do at half-past seven, so we have to hurry up."

"Huh? Both of us?"

Mango was astonished.

Emberly nodded slightly and urged her to eat faster.

Mango didn't dare to delay their schedule. She didn't know what Emberly was going to do, but she was became nervous after looking at how anxious Emberly was.

After they finished eating, Emberly took Mango to the street and hailed a taxi.

"I've got a car."
