Although Mango had a strong appearance, she was actually emotionally weak.
She had tolerated their actions as they had brought her up since she was a child, but now she would no longer do the same.
Mango suddenly felt very cold.
She wrapped and hugged herself with her hands tightly as if she had been wronged.
Nathaniel saw this scene when he opened his eyes.
He couldn't be more distressed.
"I will make them regret it for the rest of their lives as long as you say a word!"
"No, I want to end this myself."
Mango leaned against Nathaniel's embrace, but this irritated her wounds. She only frowned slightly, but Nathaniel caught her discomfort immediately.
"Did you touch your wound?"
"Yes. Don't worry. I'll make sure that Gisella pays the price for these three lashes."
A trace of anger flashed across Mango's eyes.
"Do you have a plan?"
Nathaniel slightly adjusted his position so that Mango could lay in his embrace more comfortably.
After Mango leaned against him, she said in a low voice, "Gisella could do anything without any fear because she took advantage of the fact that I wouldn't do anything to her parents. No matter what they do, they have raised me for twenty years. To be honest, I did not want to do anything to them, but now, they've really crossed the line, and I can't stand still anymore. Plus, how can I leave them be when they even wanted to use my children? Hah... I guess it's time to be a heartless daughter now!"
"Don't be afraid. I'm here. I'll do it for you if you don't think you can do it. I'll... I'll even take the blame for you!"
Nathaniel really meant what he said.
As long as Mango gave her approval, he could get rid of the Shen family immediately.
However, Mango shook her head and said, "No... I want to do it myself. They would still think that they can bully me easily if you do it. After all, they always thought that I married you because I was lucky. So, now, they need to learn the consequences of offending me!
When Mango recalled that her innocent children were almost betrayed and hurt by the grandparents they had trusted most, she was furious, and she made up her mind to take action immediately.
"Ah...I'm just worried that you will regret your actions."
"Hah...hey didn't regret treating me like that, so why should I think this way? Besides, I just need to get rid of the feelings I have for them. To be honest, I barely feel anything forthem now."
Mango hummed and said, "Mr. Shen plagiarised one of Edvard Munch's artworks when he was still a young artist, but not many knew about this. After all, Edvard Munch had already passed away, and no one has seen his early works. Thus, he thought of this when he happened to come across one of Edvard's legendary artworks last time. I recall him telling this to Mrs. Shen when I was young, and it left a deep impression on me. After many years, he became famous in the art industry, and he has many powerful disciples. Thus, I believe that Mr. Shen also used some of his connections to get Gisella out of prison this time, along with Bernards's help."
Nathaniel quickly picked up his phone to give Ned a call after listening to all of these.
"I have already told Ned to start from here. If we have the evidence, we can ruin his reputation as an artist any time! At the same time, I'll get Desmond to liaise with Edvard Munch's descendants. They will sue him for the copyrights, and he'll be busy dealing with his court case. Hence, Mrs. Shen would definitely depend on Gisella to rescue Mr. Shen at this time. However, that b*tch has already escaped overseas now. Hah! Let's see whether she would return for the sake of her biological father."
Mango's plan was simple. Then Shen family parents were Gisella's weakness, so she wanted to use this to force her to come back. Of course, Mango would also prepare another plan just in case Gisella was ruthless enough to ignore her parents.
Nathaniel did not raise any opinions as he heard all of these. To him, she could do anything as not as she could vent her anger.
"Did Mr. Shen only plagiarise one of his work?"
"I'm not sure. I only know this one. I haven't investigate on the rest."
A cold smile appeared on Nathaniel's lips.
"Why only accuse him of plagiarism if you want to ruin his reputation completely? Hehe! You should dig out more information about his past too!"
"Hmm... I really don't know anything else."
"Leave it to me."
Nathaniel took the responsibility for this matter.
"I promise to find out every dirty secret that he's hiding and expose him!"
Mango's gaze changed a little.
"Urgh! You're so evil!"
Nathaniel burst into laughter.
"Well... I'm just giving you an example."
"You sound too evil, ok?"
"Really? Maybe I should get rid of him instead?"
"Hah. Forget it, I don't want to listen to you anymore."
Mango moved a little, but her wound still hurt, and she gritted her teeth out of pain."
"Ah... what will happen to Rainie's album now that I'm injured?"
Nathaniel knew that Mango was still concerned about this matter.
"She'll be fine. I've already sent a professional zither teacher to help them out."
"That's great!"
Mango let out a sigh of relief. She suddenly thought of something and got up quickly. However, she then cried out in pain, and her whole body broke into a cold sweat.
"Hey! Can't you be more careful? You're a patient! Oh no, I can even see your bones through your wounds."
Nathaniel quickly supported her with a distressed face.
Mango only knew that her wounds hurt terribly, but she did not know how badly injured she was. She suddenly narrowed her eyes now when she heard what Nathaniel had said.
"What? The lashes managed to tear through my flesh?"
"Yeah, they almost did..."
Mango clasped her hands together immediately.
Gisella!
"I will never ever spare you!"
