The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 378



Chapter 378

"What's going on? Why are you shouting?"

Madam Ye came out in a hurry, but she couldn't stop Nathaniel in time.

Then, Mango held on to Nathaniel and said, "You still have to ask Zion about this, you can't just accuse him blindly."

"What do you mean by that? Only Zion would do such a thing!"

Clearly, Nathaniel was fuming with anger.

The little brat couldn't go a day without causing trouble for him.

As soon as Zion recalled his drone, he heard Nathaniel shouting his name outside. Hence, he shrunk back a little as he was filled with fear.

That old hag from the Hans Family wouldn't be so petty and complain to his parents so quickly, right?

"What do we do, Zion? Daddy seems really mad."

In fact, Rita rarely saw Nathaniel lose his temper in such a manner.

Zion was also afraid, but he forced a smile and replied, "Don't worry, just stay inside here. I did this, so I'll have to take responsibility for it."

"Will daddy hit you?"

Rita blinked her worried eyes at Zion,

"No! Mr. Ye won't hit me, don't worry."

Actually, Zion wasn't sure if that was true, but he couldn't help but comfort Rita when she became worried.

"How about I ask daddy for mercy on your behalf? I'll say that I did it and daddy won't punish me because he loves me a lot."

At that moment, Zion was touched by his sister's concern. It seemed that his love for her was not in vain.

"There's no need forthat. I'm a boy, and I don't need a girl to take responsibility for my actions. Don't worry, I'll handle it!"

After Zion finished speaking, he left Rita inside the room before he walked out.

Meanwhile, Mango was still holding Nathaniel back while Madam Ye tried her best to soothe his rage. However, Nathaniel threw the phone right at Zion when the young boy walked out.

"Did you do this?"

When Zion saw the photos of the ruined living room in the Hans Family mansion, he smirked and replied, "How disgraceful for an old lady like her to snitch on a child like me."

"Are you not going to admit to your mistakes?"

Nathaniel was pissed off when he saw Zion act like nothing was wrong. It seemed like his son thought that it was irrational for the Hans Family to complain to them, and Nathaniel really wanted to smack Zion.

Then, Zion stood up straighter and said, "She bullied mommy and made her unhappy, so I have to teach her a lesson, right? That old crone's crossed the line. Even though mommy's left, she still badmouthed mommy to Mr. Hans. I wouldn't be a good son if I didn't teach her a lesson!"

Her son's words stunned Mango.

She knew what Zion was capable of, but she never imagined that he would be angry on her behalf.

"Zion, this is a matter between adults. You shouldn't intervene."

"I don't care, I'll fight anyone who bullies you, mommy. The most she can do is ask the police to arrest me anyway."

Right now, Zion was absolutely fearless and it made Nathaniel laugh despite his anger.

"What!? Do you think we own the police? You're part of the Ye Family! Your reputation will be ruined if you're arrested! Don't you want to join the military in the future? Let me tell you, don't even dream of being a soldier if you're arrested. You won't even qualify for the military academy!"

Then, Zion became a little uneasy after he heard Nathaniel's words.

His fingers fiddled with the hem of his clothes nervously, but he tried to keep a brave face. Hence, that made Mango's heart ache.

"Hey, Zion did all this for me. In the end, it's my fault for bringing all these problems home and involving the children. As for what happened, I'll go to the Hans Family and atone for my mistakes. It doesn't matter what they want to do to me, I'll be fine as long as they don't blame Zion for this."

Mango's words made Zion feel uneasy.

"Mommy, did I really do something wrong?"

"I'm very happy that you want to stand up for me, but we have to be rational. Using a drone to destroy their living room is a bad idea. Luckily, they won't be able to sue you because you're still young, but it would be a crime if you were older, get it?"

Mango saw the fear in her son's eyes, but she had to tell him the truth. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

Her son was young, and he only wanted to avenge her. However, he would have no choice but to atone for her child's mistakes if the Hans Family insisted on pursuing the issue.

"I'm sorry, mommy! I'll go! I did this, so I'll take responsibility for it. She can punish me however she wants to ."

"Who the f*ck do you think you are?"

Nathaniel couldn't help but swear.

Then, Madam Ye shook her head slightly as she tugged on Nathaniel's sleeve and asked, "How could you say that in front of him?"

Nathaniel knew that Zion had always thought too highly of himself, especially in areas where he excelled in. His usual antics could be ignored, but if Nathaniel didn't discipline his child now, Zion could end up getting himself into bigger trouble.

"Go! Face the wall and reflect on your actions. You're not allowed to move as long as your mother and I are away. You'd better not slack off when I'm not around, and I want you to think about your mistakes today."

Nathaniel pointed to a corner of the living room as he spoke.

Meanwhile, Mango's heart ached, but she knew that it was not the time to feel sorry for her son. She could not interrupt Nathaniel when he was educating Zion, and Zion indeed crossed the line today.

Madam Ye felt sorry for Zion.

"How could you ask him to stand for so long? The way I see it, writing an apology letter is punishment enough."

"Mom, you can't be so lenient on him. You wouldn't want a grandson who's spoiled rotten, right?"

Nathaniel's words rendered Madam Ye speechless.

Then, Zion took one look at Nathaniel's serious expression before he silently went to face the wall.

"Daddy, I'm part of this as well, so you should punish me along with Zion."

Rita quickly ran out after she witnessed her brother being punished, and she cried as she tugged on Nathaniel's trousers.

"Daddy, Zion didn't mean it. He was just getting revenge for mommy, he didn't do anything wrong."

However, Nathaniel sighed when he saw Rita's tears and replied, "Be a good girl and quiet down, Rita. Go play with grandma."

"No! Daddy loves me right? Then don't punish Zion anymore, he knows that he was wrong." Right now, Rita was trying her best to use her tears to make Nathaniel withdraw his punishment.

Nevertheless, Nathaniel was expressionless as he replied, "Rita, you need to learn how to face the consequences of your mistakes. Enough, go to your grandma."

As he spoke, he carried Rita over to Madam Ye.

This was the very first time that Nathaniel had not catered to Rita's wishes, so she became upset.

"You're mean, daddy! I hate you! Hmph!"

Then, she turned around and ran out.

After that, Mango sighed softly and said to Madam Ye, "Mom, I'm afraid that Nathan and I will have to leave for a moment."

"It's fine, both of you should go and handle it. Adults have to fix the problems that our children have caused after all. We'll wait for you to have dinner."

Madam Ye did not say much, instead, she was being very accommodating.

Then, Nathaniel looked at Zion and left the Ye's Mansion with Mango without saying anything else.

Mango paused for a moment when they arrived at the Hans Family's mansion.

"Why don't you stay in the car? I'll take care of it."

Nathaniel knew that Mango didn't want to face the Hans family, so he couldn't help but give a suggestion.

"It's fine, I'll have to face it eventually. Madam Hans sent that message to me, so it means that she wants me to solve the issue. I'm afraid of what she might say if I don't see her, so I might as well go since I'm already here."

"It doesn't matter what she says. Even if I argue with her, we'll see if she really has the guts to call the police on my son. The members of the Ye Family are not weaklings."

Although Nathaniel had punished Zion at home, he was still protective of his son.

Then, Mango smiled and replied, "If Zion ever saw you like this, I'm afraid he'd be even more reckless in the future."

"I won't ever let him see this, but it's fine if you did."

Then, Nathaniel grasped Mango's hands.

Her hands were still cold and clammy. Perhaps her body wouldn't be so weak if she hadn't sacrificed herself to get the antidote, but unfortunately, Madam Hans thought that Queena had fabricated the entire story.

Nathaniel knew that Mango was upset because someone she loved was mistreating her like this, and he would avoid meeting Madam Hans again if he could. However, his brat of a son had ruined that plan.

On the other hand, Mango knew that Nathaniel was worried about her, but she was emboldened by his support.

"Don't worry, she can't do anything to me."

Hence, Nathaniel simply nodded at what she said as they both got off the car. After that, a servant ran inside to report their arrival to Madam Hans.

Meanwhile, the old lady had just finished taking a shower and it had taken a great deal of effort to wash the paint off of her face. The furious scrubbing had left her face red and raw, as if she'd lost the top layer of her skin.

She fumed with rage when she heard that Mango and Nathaniel had arrived.

"Go and find someone to keep Terrance from coming home. No matter what, I'll teach that b*tch a lesson today!"

The old lady's tone was harsh and aggressive as she spoke.

The servants around her scattered to carry out her bidding.

When Mango stepped into the mansion's living room, she no longer felt the rush of emotion that she used to feel. On the contrary, she couldn't help but be surprised at the state of the room.

How could Zion have the capability to destroy a room like this? The living room was trashed beyond recognition!

Then, Nathaniel nodded proudly and said, "I guess that little brat is pretty well-versed in war tactics. Look, he started from the left and moved to the centre while he spread his shots all around. This way, he could increase the coverage of the damage. If this was a real battlefield, he would have killed plenty of enemies."

"Huh, you sound almost proud of what your son did."

Hence, Mango couldn't help but laugh when she heard Nathaniel's words.

Meanwhile, Madam Hans had just entered the room when she heard Mango's words, and rage consumed every fiber of her being.

"What? Do you think that it's a good thing to have raise your son like this?"
