The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 321

Meanwhile, Merle felt as if every single muscle in his body was quivering.

He had never seen a man who could be so cruel to a woman.

Right now, Nathaniel didn't seem like he had any humanity left in him at all.

Nanny Zhang's arm had been broken, and she was in so much pain that she broke out in massive cold sweat.

"Nathaniel, you scum! How dare you lay your hands on your mother for that b*tch! Aren't you afraid that you'll go to hell?"

"I'd gladly go. Who gave me such a cruel mother like you? This broken arm is for my poor unborn child."

After that, Nathaniel dislocated one of Nanny Zhang's legs without even batting an eye.

Nanny Zhang was in so much pain that she nearly passed out.

In fact, the only thing keeping her alive was her willpower as the toxins in her body still hadn't been nullified. Now, Nathaniel's cruel treatment nearly caused her body to give out.

Furthermore, Nathaniel even made it easy for her as he said, "You can pass out if you want, but I guarantee that you'll wake up the next second. This, is the price you have to pay for how cruelly you treated Zion!"

"Just f*cking kill me, Nathaniel!"

Nanny Zhang suddenly felt that no matter how cruel and vicious she was, it wouldn't be able to compare to how heartless Nathaniel was being right now.

He clearly knew that she was his biological mother, yet he tortured her anyway. Thus, this left Nanny Zhang without any room to bargain.

At that moment, Nathaniel was acting on pure fury. If Mango were here, there was a chance that she would stop him. But now, nothing on this Earth could have the power to stop Nathaniel.

Hence, she broke down immediately.

Nanny Zhang was not one to admit defeat at all, but she was very afraid of her own son.

True enough, the day of judgement had come for her.

She trembled in pain, yet Nathaniel refused to go easy on her. Just as she was about to pass out, he swiftly broke Nanny Zhang's other leg.

"Ahhhh!!"

Nanny Zhang's agonising scream reverberated throughout the basement, striking fear into the hearts of all who heard it.

Meanwhile, Merle was secretly relieved that Nathaniel was not his master. If not, he would have been traumatised by now.

However, Nathaniel still spoke in an indifferent tone. "This leg is for what you've done to Rita."

"Nathaniel, you might as well just kill me!"

Nanny Zhang shrieked in a hoarse voice.

However, Nathaniel replied calmly. "Didn't I tell you that I can't do that? Someone wants you alive. But I do have to tell you, sometimes being alive is much worse than being dead, and you have the rest of your life to reflect on your actions."

"You're planning to break all my limbs, aren't you? You f*cking b*stard!"

Nanny Zhang bellowed and she opened her mouth to bite Nathaniel.

However, Nathaniel seemed to be prepared for that and he grabbed her jaw. His hand tightened, and Nanny Zhang could not scream anymore.

She was in so much pain that she would rather drop dead. Unfortunately, Nathaniel had used a special tactic to keep her conscious and that was the most agonising part.

Then, Nathaniel casually observed her as he wasn't in any hurry to break her final limb.

His voice was faint as he said, "Don't you know that Mango is my life? You call yourself my biological mother, yet you constantly plan to take my life away from me. So, am I the one being unfilial, or is it you who's heartless? Do you intend on explaining to me how my mother was poisoned? How my father died? How Madam Hans had a stroke? Hm?"

Nanny Zhang wanted to reply, but all that came out from her mouth was gibberish as she gasped for air.

Then, Nathaniel sneered before he said, "God is fair. No matter what you've done, you'll get what's coming for you. Mango's suffered greatly over the last few years, and I stupidly thought that Macy and Susie were the cause of her pain. However, I recently found out that you were the one who ordered your men to burn Mango to death!"

Nanny Zhang gazed at Nathaniel with a hopeless look in her eyes. Truly, she had never expected to be defeated by her son, let alone be tortured like this.

Honestly, she regretted it!

She regretted that she never strangled Nathaniel to death the moment he was born!

She regretted the motherly love she felt for him over the years and the many chances that she gave him.

She glared at Nathaniel with a vicious look in her eyes. Although she couldn't speak, Nathaniel could see what she was trying to convey as clear as day.

"You hate me, don't you? I'm sure you're thinking that sparing my life was your greatest act of kindness towards me, yet my ungrateful a*s decided to mistreat you. Nanny Zhang, ask yourself, did you really not do anything to me?”

Nathaniel's voice was so soft that only Nanny Zhang could hear what he said, but her expression shifted the moment she heard the question.

"What? Did you think I wouldn't find out? You must've thought that was impossible with your medical ability and your status within the Ye Family, right? Unfortunately for you, I'm not a fool. I know exactly what you fed me and what you did to my body, but I never knew the true culprit behind it all. Now that I finally know the truth, it's funny to find out that the real culprit turned out to be my biological mother after all these years.¹'

Nathaniel's words were pitiful, but then he sneered and continued, "Since you're my mother, I can never get justice despite what you've done to me. However, I will definitely hold whatever you've done to Mango against you."

Nathaniel sat down on the ground as he spoke, as if he still wanted to have a lengthy chat with her. Conversely, Nanny Zhang seemed very anxious.

If she had a choice, she would want nothing more than for Nathaniel to leave as soon as possible.

However, Nathaniel looked at her amusedly and said, "What are you afraid of? Can you still feel fear despite all the evil things that you've done? You found out that Abyss fancied Mango while she

was in America, so you went behind her back to cooperate with Abyss and you even gave him the medication to poison Rita. You even used Abyss's feelings for Mango to coax him into doing exactly what you wanted. Clearly, you have methods to do what you want regardless of whether it's at home or overseas. Previously, I had no idea about all of this and I just assumed that it was because the Ye Family had a considerable amount of power. Now that I look at it, it seems that your boss is a very powerful person. Nevertheless, let's see if he'll come and save you now."

Nanny Zhang's eyes suddenly widened.

She had never imagined that Nathaniel knew that much.

Then, Nathaniel said in a low voice, "Alas, this has nothing to do with me anymore. I don't care about who your boss is, nor why you have a grudge against the Ye Family because I only care about one woman right now, and that's Mango! She's my everything! I will never allow anyone to hurt her ever again for whatever reason they might have. Since you failed to heed my warning, you'll have to pay the price!"

"No!"

Nanny Zhang shrieked internally, yet she failed to stop Nathaniel's actions.

He swiftly and decisively broke Nanny Zhang's remaining arm.

Finally, the pain was too much for her to bear and she passed out.

After that, Nathaniel stood up stoically before he spoke to Merle who stood beside him. "After the doctors figure out the antidote, test it on her. Use it on my mother and Madam Hans after you've confirmed its effectiveness."

"Yes sir!"

It was rare for Merle to be so flustered as he'd seen all manners of evil people over the years, but when he faced Nathaniel, it was the first time that he'd truly felt fear.

Nathaniel didn't show much emotion from the moment he stepped inside. Furthermore, he was even laughing when he broke Nanny Zhang's limbs.

Hence, men like Nathaniel were terrifying!

Then, Merle subconsciously glanced at Nanny Zhang.

Earlier on, she had been shouting and screaming bloody murder, but now she lay on the floor in a pathetic heap.

"Mr. Ye, are you going to have someone set her fractures?"

Just as Merle asked this question, Nathaniel's gaze made him shrink in fear.

Moreover, Nathaniel glare seemed to rob the very air from his lungs.

'Til destroy anyone who dares to help her."

Merle immediately shut up right after Nathaniel said that. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

He had no intention of retiring early, nor did he want to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.

"Got it, Mr. Ye."

"Pass the message to anyone that comes to pick her up. Tell them that Nathaniel will let her live, but I will never forgive anyone who tries to set her fractures."

After that, Nathaniel stood and left the basement.

Meanwhile, Merle couldn't help but shudder at the sight of Nanny Zhang's unnaturally twisted body.

The blood pooling underneath her body steadily grew.

Hence, Merle was fearful that she'd bleed to death.

On the other hand, Nathaniel couldn't care less about it.

After he left the basement, he used a handkerchief to wipe his hands before he set off for the operating theater.

His steps were steady and his expression was cold as usual, but it caused everyone to avoid him in fear of incurring his wrath.

When Nathaniel returned, the light above the operating theater's door was still on.

Meanwhile, Charlotte didn't say a word upon his return and she only gave him a glance as all her attention was focused on the operating theatre's light.

Since Thomas was Nathaniel's assistant, he naturally stepped forward to ask about Nathaniel's condition when he saw his boss's expression. "Mr. Ye, would you like to rest?"

"I'm fine, thanks."

Then, Nathaniel sat down on the bench in the hospital's corridor.

How many times had he done this for Mango?

In the past, he never thought that Mango would need surgery for anything, except for maybe childbirth. Now, Charlotte's earlier words echoed inside his brain.

In the end, he'd failed to protect his wife!

This pressure was like an anvil that was crushing Nathaniel's chest, and he found it difficult to breathe.

As time went by, the light above the operating theatre's door seemed frozen in time. It glowed a steady red, and he felt a paralyzing sense of fear as he stared at it.

Just as Nathaniel was about to throw in the towel, the light finally went out.

All of a sudden, Nathaniel lost his composure when he saw the doctor come out from the operating theatre. When the doctor took off his mask wearily,

nervousness filled Nathaniel's body and he was so anxious that he almost lost his footing.
