The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 310

"What's that sound?"

Mango was rather slow to react, but Queena suddenly stood up.

"Your grandmother!"

Then, Queena ran quickly towards Madam Hans's room.

Meanwhile, Mango was stunned for a moment as she didn't know what was going on.

Grandma?

She thought about it for a while before she realized that it was Madam Hans.

As the thought crossed her mind, Mango quickly followed behind Queena.

"Mom!"

Queena's voice sounded from inside the room with a hint of urgency.

Thus, Mango's chest tightened involuntarily.

She quickly opened the door and walked inside and found Madam Hans lying on the floor. The corner of her mouth and her right hand kept twitching uncontrollably and it seemed like Madam Hans had gotten a stroke.

Madam Hans was very old, but her deception previously didn't give Mango a very good impression of her. After that, Mango decided to let it go when she found out Madam Hans only did it for the sake of her own granddaughter.

However, she didn't expect that she would turn out to be Madam Hans's granddaughter as well!

"Don't move her and call the ambulance now!"

Next, Mango rushed over to help Madam Hans up.

Clearly, Madam Hans was excited to see Mango, but she wasn't able to say any words.

"Don't attempt to speak as I already know what you want to say. Grandma, I'm back. No matter what, I'm home now. I'll make sure to spend time with you in the future, okay?"

To be honest, Mango felt rather regretful.

If she'd come earlier to check on Madam Hans, would this have happened?

Meanwhile, the old woman mumbled gibberish as she tried to speak and tears flowed from her eyes.

She grasped Mango's hand tightly. Although her grip was weak, she refused to let go as if she feared that Mango would suddenly run away.

There was a meaningful look in her eyes, but unfortunately, Mango couldn't decipher it.

Queena quickly called for an ambulance before she notified Terrance and the others.

When Terrance and Nathaniel arrived at the scene, their expressions were grim and it got worse when they realized that Madam Hans may have had a stroke.

"Did you call an ambulance?"

Terrance asked Queena.

"Yes, it'll be here soon. However, Mom was feeling only a bit unwell earlier. How did it develop into something this bad?"

Queena couldn't figure it out, but she was very worried about Madam Hans.

On the other hand, Nathaniel gently grasped Mango's shoulder and asked, "Are you all right?"

"I'm fine."

In fact, Mango's heart was very heavy.

After the ambulance arrived, Mango and Queena boarded it along with Madam Hans while Terrance and Nathaniel followed behind them in their own car.

Soon after, Madam Hans was sent to the emergency room.

Terrance and Queena waited nervously outside, while Nathaniel pulled Mango to the side.

"What's wrong?"

Mango's heart was filled with a complicated mix of emotions.

The person lying inside the emergency room was her biological grandmother!

Decades had passed, but she never knew that she still had a grandmother in this world.

Madam Hans had lost her son and husband very early, and she got a stroke just as her family was about to be reunited once more.

This made Mango feel rather uncomfortable when she thought about it.

It shouldn't end like this!

Madam Hans had worked hard throughout her life, and both her son and husband had sacrificed themselves to serve the country. Now that she was in her golden years, she was unable to witness

her family's reunion before she fell ill once more.

Then, Nathaniel pulled Mango into his arms and whispered, "I'm sorry."

"What are you talking about? Illness and death is part of life, but I just feel rather regretful. If I knew that Madam Hans would turn out like this, I would've gone to see her earlier."

Mango's voice was filled with regret as she said this.

Honestly, she felt like she had been very unfilial indeed.

After Mango returned from the United States and found out about her true identity, she had actually been avoiding the truth. She had no idea how to face the Hans Family or Madam Hans, nor did she know how to accept her newfound identity.

In truth, Mango knew that the Hans Family was awaiting her return but she didn't want to bring up the subject first.

But now, Madam Hans had gotten a stroke. If she ended up being paralysed forever, how would Mango ever forgive herself?

Thus, Mango felt guilty as she blamed herself for everything and this made Nathaniel's heart ache for her.

"This wasn't an accident. Someone deliberately did this to Madam Hans!"

Nathaniel said these words very softly so that only Mango could hear.

Then, she paused suddenly before she raised her head to look at Nathaniel.

"Did my grandmother's stroke have anything to do with you and Terrance visiting Nanny Zhang?"

Mango was definitely smarter than most people gave her credit for.

Stroke was a common occurrence among the elderly, so there wasn't any need for Nathaniel to apologise to her unless it had something to do with Nanny Zhang.

Regardless of whether Nathaniel acknowledged it or not, Nanny Zhang was his biological mother after all. It made sense for him to apologise if it was true.

When she thought of this, Mango's gaze darkened.

In truth, Nathaniel wanted to avoid the topic but he sighed when he saw the anger simmering in Mango's eyes. "Yes. Nanny Zhang started plotting against the Hans Family long ago just because they were helping us. When Madam Hans fell ill previously, Nanny Zhang bribed a nurse to infiltrate the Hans Family. All this while, the nurse has been taking care of Madam Hans and she handles all of Madam Hans' meals. This is all under the orders of Nanny Zhang."

Obviously, Nathaniel was very irritated when he talked about Nanny Zhang.

Nathaniel felt like it would have been better for him to not to know that a woman like her was his biological mother.

Truly, Nanny Zhang was cruel to everyone.

If something didn't go her way, she would use her medical knowledge to silently commit murder. NôvelDrama.Org content.

Alas, such a vicious woman had given birth to him and Nick. Nathaniel felt extremely uncomfortable at the thought of this, but try as he might, he couldn't deny that fact.

If Nanny Zhang wasn't his biological mother, he would have had her killed the moment he caught wind of this.

Unfortunately, he couldn't!

Furthermore, Nathaniel knew that telling Mango about this would make her despise Nanny Zhang even more, yet he couldn't hide it from her.

On the other hand, Terrance wanted to kill Nanny Zhang once he heard the news. Unfortunately, they needed Nanny Zhang alive to lure out her boss, so he restrained himself. Alas, it was too late when he and Nathaniel arrived at the scene.

In the end, Madam Hans still fell victim to Nanny Zhang's devious plans.

When Mango heard about this, her expression turned murderous.

"If I said that I wanted to kill Nanny Zhang, would you stop me?"

Mango's voice was soft, but it quivered as she spoke. In fact, her entire body was quaking.

Nanny Zhang was such a vile woman!

She had been holding back her anger all this time, but she never expected this woman to repeatedly hurt the people she cared about. Thus, did Nanny Zhang think that Mango was some sort of pushover?

Then, Nathaniel frowned but he replied softly, "I'm not exactly in the best shape right now, so I'm not going to care too much about this. No matter what you do, I'll follow your lead."

Thus, Nathaniel decided to completely let go of the matter.

He had done all he can for Nanny Zhang.

No matter how he put it, Nanny Zhang had undeniably brought him into the world. Hence, he hadn't neglected her welfare even though he didn’t know about her true identity. Moreover, Nathaniel had

given her power and status among a plethora of other things.

Now, Nanny Zhang was using these gifts against the Ye Family and his own family as well. Thus, Nathaniel had given up on her long ago.

He had repeatedly shown mercy to Nanny Zhang until the people around him had all succumbed to her unscrupulous tactics. Because of this, he wouldn't protect Nanny Zhang any longer.

Then, Mango savagely replied when she heard Nathaniel's words. "I want to go back to the Hans Family mansion!"

"Right now?"

Nathaniel was quite surprised, as Madam Hans hadn't left the emergency room yet.

"Now!" Mango said coldly and her eyes brimming with murderous intent.

Hence, Nathaniel had no doubt that Mango wanted to go back and kill Nanny Zhang.

He wanted to say that Nanny Zhang was still useful to them, or that they could use her to lure out other people. However, he just twitched his lips in the end and didn't try to stop Mango.

"I'll have Thomas take you back."

Whatever Mango wanted to do in this situation was justifiable, but it wasn't a good idea for Nathaniel to be with her when she actually killed Nanny Zhang.

Nevertheless, Mango replied in a low voice, "It's fine. I'll have Merle come over as I have my own way of dealing with this. Since you've permitted me to do it, just turn a blind eye to it okay? Don't hold anything against me."

"I won't. She deserves what's coming, so I won't blame you no matter what you do. To be honest, I'm very sorry Mango, I..."

It was rare for Nathaniel to behave so passively, but he felt a wave of guilt and shame wash over him as he looked at Mango.

"This has nothing to do with you. Although she gave birth to you, Nanny Zhang has lost all sense of her humanity."

Mango's hands were tightly clenched.

Nanny Zhang never gave Mango's family a break, ever. What grudge did she have against Mango to make her act this way?

All of this was just because Mango had fallen in love

and married Nathaniel. Unfortunately, she wasn't the daughter-in-law Nanny Zhang wanted.

That woman had actually hurt innocent people for the sake of her own desires, and it was absolutely despicable!

Then, Nathaniel replied when he saw that Mango had made up her mind. "I'll keep watch here. Once there are any developments on Madam Hans' condition, I'll call you immediately."

"There's no need for that. Terrance and my mother are here, so nothing will happen to her. Whoever Nanny Zhang's boss is, they wouldn't dare cross the Hans Family. Right now, I'm actually worried about Zion and Rita, as well as my parents. Once I summon Merle, Rita will be left undefended, so..."

Nathaniel understood what she meant before she even finished her sentence.

"Leave our family to me, don't worry."

In truth, Nathaniel was still quite tired as he was injured after all. No matter how strong he was, it was impossible for him to handle this many things, but he had to for the sake of his family.

This was the havoc that Nanny Zhang had wrought upon them!

Regardless of whether he accepted it or not, he was still her son and thus he needed to pay the price for it!

Then, Mango looked at him with a distressed expression and said, "I'm so sorry to trouble you."

"I should be the one to say that to you. No matter what she says or does, you shouldn't take it to heart. You need to know that the people I care about the most are you and our children."

Nathaniel was afraid that Nanny Zhang would get under Mango's skin, so he needed to let her know beforehand.

"I know."

Mango nodded her head, but the murderous intent in her heart did not abate at all.

She wanted to go and see what other tricks Nanny Zhang had up her sleeve! Furthermore, she knew that Nanny Zhang did this to lure Mango into meeting her personally.

Since Nanny Zhang had spent so much effort to see her, shouldn't she return the favor?
