The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 988

"Is Mr. Ye calling you?"

Rainie wanted to run away because she thought that Nathaniel was calling Mango, but the latter stopped her.

"It's not him."

"Who's calling you then?"

"I think it's just a random salesperson."

Mango directly hung up the phone after saying that.

She did not want to pick up a call from an unknown number.

However, the other party seemed to be quite perseverant, and they called Mango again after she hung up the phone. This was too irritating!

Rainie whispered, "You should block the number if you do not want to answer them."

"I think I should just pick up and see how it goes. Perhaps I can get some information from them."

Mango clicked the answer button as she said this.

A woman's voice came from the other side.

"Mrs. Ye, please save my son!"

Mango frowned when she heard that the other party knew of her identity.

However, Rainie suddenly grabbed the phone!

"Dorothy? Where is kooky?"

They could not find Kooky all this while, but now they were getting news of him immediately!

Besides, Kooky's wife had immediately called them after they had found out that Kooky was the driver!

Mango was slightly stunned.

Kooky's wife?

She knew that Rainie couldn't have heard wrongly, but she wondered how Kooky's wife got her number.

Kooky's wife obviously never thought that Rainie would be here too. She naturally could recognise Rainie's voice as they had been neighbours for quite some time, and their relationship was quite good. Thus, Dorothy wanted to hang the phone subconsciously when she heard Rainie's voice.

"Hah! Don't hang up the phone. Do you think that no one will find out what Kooky has done? You know that you can't hide the fact that Kooky is a murderer now that I'm asking you about it now. Besides, I have no grudges against your family, and I've always treated you well. So, why did your husband decide to run over my boyfriend? Huh?"

Rainie was agitated.

Rainie could have ignored him if he had run over someone else. However, she felt upset as Bocky had run over someone she was familiar with.

Dorothy sounded as if she was crying.

"I'm... I'm sorry, Miss Blu. I'm really sorry. Bocky had no choice. We are in a very difficult position."

"Do you think you can take someone's life even if you're in a difficult position? Are you trying to use this excuse to get yourself out of trouble after running over someone else? Huh?"

Rainie was trembling from head to toe.

Rainie would've slapped Dorothy without hesitant if she was here.

Bocky’s wife was obviously someone that knew her limits. When Rainie scolded her fiercly, she felt sorry and apologized in shame.

"Hah! I don't want your apology. I want to know where Bocky is. Dorothy, you can't run away from this because we will find Bocky sooner or later. You know that the consequences of Bocky turning himself in and the police arresting him are vastly different."

Bocky's wife felt even upset after hearing Rainie's words.

"Can I talk to Mrs. Ye?" Rainie finally realized that Bocky's wife wanted to talk to Mango along.

She still passed the phone to Mango even though she was reluctant to do so.

Mango knew that Rainie wanted to listen, so she just switched it to speaker mode. Then, she directly put the phone on the bed.

"What do you want to tell me?"

Mango's voice was blunt and emotionless.

She resented the fact that her own acquaintances had committed unforgivable crimes!

They had gotten along with the Anderson family all this while, so they never expected them to do something like this. Now that something like this happened, it was hard to accept no matter what was the reason behind this. Plus, Thomas was still lying in the hospital in an unconscious state.

Dorothy heard how upset Mango was, but she really had no other choice.

"Mrs. Ye, I know that my husband did something unforgivable. However, we had no choice. Our son, Stanly, has leukaemia, and we need money for his treatment. We're only normal employees, and we still have a loan to pay. Besides, Bocky's amount of salary is not enough to cover my son's medication fees. Therefore, someone found Anderson at this time and wanted him to create an accident. If he did this, they would give us five hundred thousand dollars. Five hundred thousand dollars might not mean anything to you all, but it's an amount that could save our son. I know this sounds shameful of us, but we really had no other choice."

Bocky's wife was crying as she said these words.

Mango was a little sad, but she did not sympathize with Dorothy.

"Does this mean that your son's life is valuable, but not others? Hah! Stop thinking that this is a valid excuse for your actions!"

Mango said angrily.

Bocky's wife was still crying, "I... I know that we made a grave offence, so we do not plan to escape. Thus, we plan to surrender once our son's sickness is more stable. However, my son is missing now after he recovered slightly. We didn't offend anyone. Besides, I know Mr. Ye has the capability to investigate us, but I just hope that you can be magnanimous and let go of our son. Our son is innocent, isn't he? Mrs. Ye, you're also a mother. I'm begging you! Please... please let my son go! I love him too much!"

Mango finally understood.

They had called her because their son was missing!

Did they think that she sent someone to kidnap Bocky's son?

Mango sneered and said, "Heh. I'm different from you all. In fact, I will find out the mastermind behind this incident directly and deal with them, so I will never harm an innocent kid. Hence, I have nothing to do with your son's disappearance."

Bocky's wife was stunned. She didn't seem to believe Mango.

"That's impossible! Who else would take my son away except you?"

"You should ask your husband about this. Perhaps the people who hired him kidnapped your son."

Bocky's wife was stunned when she heard Mango's words.

Mango did not care about what she was feeling now, and she just said coldly, "Wait. Where did you get my phone number from?"

Her number was confidential, and very few people knew it.

Mango was a little surprised now that Bocky's wife actually got her number.

However, Bocky's wife obviously felt that it wasn't a big deal. She quickly said, "Mr. Ye was the one who gave me your number."
