The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 955

"Let go."

Mango did not turn around.

She did not dare to look back, and she couldn't do so either. After all, she was afraid that she would change her mind once she did.

Perhaps it only took one second to fall in love, but it would take forever to forget about that same person.

She still loved Nathaniel, but she could not tolerate the fact that the man she loved had an affair with another woman.

Mango could not forget the red lipstick mark, and it was a nightmare that she could never forget. Every time she recalled the scene, her heart would hurt greatly because of his betrayal, and this torturous cycle repeated itself tirelessly.

Ironically, Nathaniel refused to give her an explanation.

If Nathaniel was truly innocent, he wouldn't have stayed silent.

Nathaniel would never lie to her, so if he didn't explain, it meant that he admitted it, right?

Mango wanted to break free of Nathaniel's grip, but she could not.

"Nathaniel, why are you still holding on? When you betrayed our relationship, did you think about my feelings?"

"I was always loyal to you!"

Nathaniel finally spoke up.

Mango laughed resentfully as tears welled up in her eyes.

"Then why won't you explain? Tell me! Where did that lipstick stain come from? What's your relationship with her? Huh?"

"We have no relationship. I have nothing to do with her."

Mango forced a bitter smile.

"Oh... I see... so it's a one-night stand then. Heh! I' ve only been pregnant for three months and you’ve already lost your patience? Or do you think that I am a woman who can tolerate you having an extramarital affair during my pregnancy?"

Mango couldn't help herself. She still turned back in the end with tears welled up in her eyes.

"I wanted to end our relationship on a good note, so why are you making this hard for both of us? You have to be responsible for your actions, so stop trying to persuade me to stay! Oh, please! I'm sure you know me well by now. Some mistakes can be forgiven, but now that you've crossed the line, please know that I can't forgive you."

Mango still managed to shake Nathaniel off.

She managed to do so not because she was stronger. It was because Nathaniel did not want to harm her.

"Anyhow, I won't agree to a divorce!"

In the end, that was all Nathaniel could say.

"Whatever."

Mango did not insist any further. She just left with the help of Rainie.

It was drizzling outside. Although it wasn't raining heavily, Mango still felt chilly when she stepped out.

Nathaniel passed his jacket to Mango and muttered, "Even if you don't like taking things from me anymore, you should take care of yourself."

This time, Mango did not refuse him.

She and Rainie hailed a taxi and left the hospital.

She saw Nathaniel watching them leave in the rain from the rear-view mirror of the car.

His eyes were darkened. She couldn't make out his emotions, but she still felt sad for him.

He was the one who cheated on her, but why did she feel so miserable and reluctant to leave?

Mango felt that she was simply too useless.

She forced herself to close her eyes. Then, she leaned back against the chair and tried to sleep.

Rainie had witnessed this whole scene, and she couldn't help but feel pity and sad for them.

"Maybe he really has some difficulties...”

"Stop talking, Rainie. I'm too tired!"

Mango shut her mouth and refused to continue the conversation.

Rainie wasn’t in the position to say anything else. So, she silently supported Mango as they walk back to Rainie's apartment.

After that, Mango laid down and slept for an entire day and night, giving Rainie a heart attack. In fact, Rainie would have considered sending her back to the hospital again if her vital signs weren't normal.

Seeing Rainie's worried expression, Mango mumbled, "I'm fine... I'm just a little weak. I remember that you said a screenwriter was looking to cooperate with you. How’s that going for you?"

Hearing Mango asked about her issues, Rainie said gloomily, "What? Do you understand what’s happening now? Stop worrying about me. What’s most important for you right now is to take good care of yourself, okay?"

"Hey! I'm asking you a question.”

Mango was very persistent.

Rainie could only answer, "That screenwriter’s name is Ares Davis, and he’ s the genius screenwriter we were looking for. After listening to my song, he plans to train me for a month, then he'll help me release an album.”

"That’s good news! You should pack and leave soon.”

"Huh? What about you? You can't be own your own right now!"

Rainie refused to leave Mango alone no matter what.

Mango whispered, "What's our goal? Rainie, you have to think about your father, your brother, and Braden Armstrong! You have so much debt and loans to pay! Can you afford to wait any longer? I'm not seriously ill, and it's just a miscarriage, so I'll get better after resting for some time. There's absolutely no reason for you to stay by my side. Here, I still have some money. Just hire a nurse to take care of me. You should go do your work. I can't set up a film company for the time being. So, you have to rely on Ares to set up one and develop your career."

"What? I can't leave you at this time. I would never have had such a chance if it weren't for you! Even

if I decided to do this, I have to wait until you are fully recovered."

Rainie wouldn’t leave Mango’s side no matter what.

Mango smiled and said, "I’m totally fine. If you're really worried, you can help me bring a person over."

"Who is it?"

"Haniya. It’s been so many days, so her injury should be cured by now. Now that I'm going to divorce Nathaniel, I can’t be surrounded by his subordinates. So, I think that I can only trust Haniya and Desmond for now."

Rainie immediately thought about Haniya, Mango's special bodyguard, when she heard Mango's words.

"Alright, I'll leave when she arrives. You can't drive me away before she arrives, got it?"

Rainie was determined.

Mango didn't argue with her. She nodded her head and continued to sleep.

Rainie felt upset for Mango after seeing her like this, but there was nothing she could do to.

They had to solve their own relationship matters themselves. After all, she was only an outsider, so she could not help them at all.

Mango slept soundly that night.

When she woke up again, Haniya had already arrived.
