The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 989

"Huh?"

Rainie was a little surprised, but she paused and pressed the emergency button behind the bed when she saw the red spots on Mango's arms.

"How could this be? I thought you're only allergic to peanuts? Why would you have an allergic reaction when there are no peanuts inside here?"

Rainie was so anxious that she broke out in a cold sweat.

Mango already found it difficult to breathe.

Yes, she was only allergic to peanuts. However, not many people knew about it except for her close ones.

However, she had now caught an allergic reaction because of the food. Mango felt that it couldn't be a coincidence. After all, Sasalia Restaurant belonged to Nathaniel. Nathaniel was aware of Mango's taste buds and that she was allergic to peanuts. Therefore, he would definitely not get someone to prepare such food.

Her breaths slower became faster.

"Rainie, pack the food and get someone to test it."

Mango fainted immediately after she said that, and Rainie was frightened that she screamed instantly. Luckily, the doctor came instantly and sent her to the emergency room.

Rainie was very anxious. However, Nathaniel was not around, so she could only force herself to calm down.

She followed Mango's instructions and took the food to the lab so that Emberly could run tests on it. Then, she called Nathaniel.

Nathaniel was extremely anxious when he heard that Mango fainted due to allergic reaction.

This was definitely a planned murder!

Mango was still under rescue when Nathaniel rushed to the hospital. Meanwhile, Rainie stood in the corridor with teary eyes.

"How is she?"

"I don't know because she hasn't come out yet. However, the test results are. Someone ground those peanuts into powder and mixed them with the dishes, so Mango had an allergic reaction after eating them."

Rainie's whole body was trembling.

It was too terrifying!

They were only having a meal, but Mango fainted suddenly in front of her just like that.

Was this what rich people had to go through every day?

This situation was similar to the TV shows where those mistresses had to kill each other for power. They always had to be alert to save themselves.

Nathaniel's eyes darkened a little.

"Ned, help me check who was the one that prepared this food from Sasalia Restaurant. Also, find out who prepared and delivered this meal. Make sure you check all of them thoroughly."

Ned executed Nathaniel's instructions immediately.

Not long after that, Ned sent a message.

"Mr. Ye, the person who delivered the meal is Lily. However, our men found out that Lily has been knocked out at the alley in the back of the hospital, and she has not woken up yet."

"What about the surveillance cameras?"

"The surveillance camera doesn't show footage of the alley."

Nathaniel' gaze became colder after hearing Ned's words.

"There are so many of you protecting Madam alone. Are you all useless?"

Ned didn't dare to say a word.

Something like this never happened in the past when Thomas was around. Therefore, he had to admit that Thomas was a better assistant than he was.

"You may leave."

Nathaniel was distraught.

Mango had not come out, so he knew that it was useless to continue scolding them. He just wished for Mango to be safe for now.

Half an hour later, Mango was pushed out of the emergency room, and Emberly walked out with an exhausted expression.

"Urgh! This was definitely a planned murder as they put a lot of peanut powder in the dishes! If she wasn't in the hospital, no one could've saved her."

"How is she now?"

Nathaniel was very nervous.

"She's fine now. However, her body is quick weak, and she was already wounded when she first came in, so she has to stay in the hospital longer."

Nathaniel felt relieved when he heard Emberly's words.

Fortunately, Mango was safe.

Rainie was shivering.

She had always thought that Mango and Nathaniel were happy together with each other. Although she had heard rumours that they were attacked before, she had never witnessed it with her own eyes. Therefore, this incident had traumatised her thoroughly.

How did Mango survive such a life?

"Has Mango always suffered from such things after marrying you?"

Rainie looked at Nathaniel and asked.

Nathaniel did not answer this. In fact, he hadn't fully investigated both attacks that had happened to Mango. However, he could guess who wanted to do this to her.

Rainie never expected Nathaniel to really answer her question too. After asking, she looked at Mango, who was unconscious and said in a low voice, "I'll stay back to take care of her. You can go and settle anything you need to do. However, I hope that you can find the culprit as soon as possible. I'm too worried about her. If she can't even eat a meal without worrying about her safety, how will she live in peace in the future?"

"Got it."

Nathaniel kissed Mango's hand, and he felt a dull pain in his chest.

Rainie knew that she had spoken those words to Nathaniel harshly, but she couldn't control her temper anymore now that Mango was in such a state.

Nathaniel accompanied Mango for a while, but he left before Mango woke up.

Rainie was correct. He had to get rid of the culprit as soon as possible.

He gave Lebanon a call after he went out.

"How long will you need to hand over Gisella to my men?"

"Just a little bit more."
