The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 954

Ned immediately went to investigate what had happened. Meanwhile, Nathaniel was unwilling to leave Mango, so he waited outside the operating room. He was so heartbroken that he found himself gasping for air.

Emberly was fighting to save Mango, but Mango's hands were hung so tightly on her stomach that Emberly couldn't pry them open.

She was a mother, so she was determined to protect her child.

Perhaps when the car had run over Mango, she knew that she had no hopes of meeting her child. However, she still gave her all to keep him alive.

At this moment, Emberly's eyes suddenly became a little teary.

"Mango, please... please let go so that I can save you and let your child rest in peace."

Emberly came near to Mango's ear and spoke in a small, gentle voice. Even though Mango was unconscious, she knew Mango could still hear her. Sure enough, a stream of tears rolled down from the corner of Mango’s eyes. Her grip loosened up as well.

Emberly was very upset too.

She had done countless surgeries, but she had not performed surgeries like these before before. In fact, she wouldn't have taken over this surgery if the patient wasn't Mango.

This was too devastating!

Mango was still in a coma as Emberly began to perform the surgery.

The operation lasted for more than an hour.

When they pushed Mango out of the operation room, Nathaniel felt his legs giving out.

"How was it?"

"She's fine. Unfortunately, the child couldn't be saved.”

Emberly's voice was not loud, but Nathaniel was devasted when he heard the news. Even though he had been mentally prepared, he still had a hard time accepting the reality that had happened.

"Uhm... I think I'll keep it from her first. I'm afraid she can't accept it."

Nathaniel's voice went dry and hoarse when he said this.

Emberly looked at him and asked in a low voice, "What's the misunderstanding between you two? Can't you let Mango know the truth?"

"No way!"

"But... why?"

"If I could tell you the reason, I would have told her the truth already."

Emberly felt like beating Nathaniel up after hearing his words.

"Then are you going to let the misunderstanding continue? Nathaniel, do you know? After a woman loses her child, the misunderstanding between you both will most likely become worse, and you can never make up for it! F*ck! You might even lose her forever. Even so, you still don't want to come clean with her?"

Nathaniel clasped his hands tightly together.

He gazed at Mango, who laid there unconscious. It was obvious that the nerves had gotten to him as he bit his lip so hard that bright red blood oozed out of the corner of his mouth.

Anyone could tell that Nathaniel was in great pain, but he still said firmly, "How serious is the damage to her body?"

"She's still at the earlier stages of her pregnancy, so the damage wasn’t very serious. She'll recover soon. Besides, she was under anaesthesia, so there was no pain. She didn’t bleed much as well. Anyhow, I'm not sure how long it will take for her to recover mentally from the trauma."

Emberly noticed Nathaniel wasn' t willing to continue the conversation, si she could only sigh and say, "Don't provoke her anymore. She's extremely weak now. Just right before the surgery, she was still holding on to her stomach to protect her child. You're a man, so you will never understand how it feels to be a mother! A man might only contribute ten minutes or so to create a child, but a woman goes through ten months of pregnancy and a lifetime of care. Now that this had happened, you shouldn't further provoke her."

As Emberly finished speaking, she ordered someone to send Mango to the ICU.

Nathaniel’s eyes went dim.

He followed Mango into the ward and took care of her without rest.

When Mango woke up again, she didn't know where she was until she noticed the white ceiling and the IV bag hanging above her head. Then, she started to recall the scenes one by one.

She subconsciously touched her belly and was devastated to find that she could no longer feel her baby moving.

In the end, she could not protect her child.

Maybe this was God's will.

When she found out that Nathaniel had cheated on her, she didn't know how to deal with the child. Then, a car accident took away the child she hadn't even met yet.

Even though Mango tried hard to convince herself in such a way, she still felt heartbroken because of her child.

She wanted to cry, but her tears had already dried up, and she could not shed even a single tear.

She could only stare blankly at the ceiling, and no one knew what she was thinking. All this while, she had turned a blind eye to Nathaniel as well.

Nathaniel felt even sadder when he saw her acting like that.

"If you're feeling unhappy, you can beat and scold me however you want, just... just don't keep it to yourself.”

Mango still looked up at the ceiling as if she didn't hear it.

The snow- white colour represented holiness. Would her child go to heaven?

She was not a competent mother.

Five years ago, she was still able to protect her child from harm. But now, five years later, she couldn't do anything. She felt so helpless!

Mango laid there in silence and refused to speak even a single word.

Soon, the nurse came in and changed her IV drip.

Emberly also came over and gave her a check-up.

When Emberly talked to her, she just nodded slightly with an exhausted expression.

When everyone except for Nathaniel had left, Mango closed her eyes and went into a deep sleep.

She hadn't laughed, cried or lost her temper. In fact, she hadn’t even said a single word! Seeing Mango in such a state, Nathaniel's heart tightened. He was very worried for her, but there was nothing he could do.

Therefore, he had no choice but to ask Ned to bring Rita over.
