The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 383

Numerous nude photos of her had been leaked all over the Internet. Furthermore, she didn't know what grudge the other party held against her, but they hadn't blurred her face at all. Most importantly, the men at her side kept changing.

"The private life of the Ye Family's mistress is such a mess."

The article's title made Mango's heart stop.

How could this be?

Who would have her nude photos?

When Mango failed to discern why, she started to panic.

This was equivalent to her taking off all her clothes in front of everyone in the country.

No matter how much courage she had, she would not be able to accept this.

Did Nathaniel know about this?

Now that he was in a video conference, what would the executives think if they saw this?

She felt that what had happened in the study earlier was sweet, but it suddenly morphed into a bitter taste that lingered in her mouth.

Then, she pushed the computer away and ran to the study frantically.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel had finished his conference and he was on the phone with Noah. Both of them were so engrossed in conversation that Nathaniel had no idea what was going on outside.

"Noah, that medicine that you prescribed to me better be effective. If I can't get it up anymore, I will kill you."

Nathaniel joked with a threatening edge in his voice.

Then, Noah chuckled and replied, "Do you really think that will happen to someone as energetic as you? Quit batching, that medicine can only make you impotent for a month. After you stop it, you'll recover on your own. However, isn't it a bad idea to hide this from your wife? You could just stop eating the medicine that she makes for you."

"Screw you. You don't have to worry about my problems."

Then, Mango's body stiffened.

What did that mean?

So, Nathaniel wasn't sick at all?

Was he deliberately refusing to touch her?

Furthermore, he asked Noah to prescribe him medicine to give him those symptoms?

Why?

Why was he doing this?

Mango's hands clenched into fists and she felt as if her entire body was frozen in shock.

She couldn't figure it out.

Why would a healthy man find a way to make himself impotent for no reason? Was he tired of her? Did he have someone else?

Hence, she wanted to leave, but her legs were glued to the spot.

However, Noah had no idea what was going on with Nathaniel, so he laughed and said, "Yes, I don't mean to pry, but your fight with that Song fellow has made its way to Santell Capital! What happened? Do you have something against them? You know that the Song Family has a lot of business connections here, so it will be hard to do things if you two are fighting. I guess it's better if you settle it."

Nathaniel was immediately enraged when Walter was mentioned.

"That's none of your business. If it wasn't for his family's connections in the Santell Capital, I would have killed him just for the stuff he had on my wife."

"What is it? What made you so angry that you would throw away your reputation just to fight him?"

"It has nothing to do with you."

Then, Nathaniel's conversation caused a memory to flash through Mango's mind.

Not long ago, Nathaniel and Walter fought in public and she'd even gone over to stop them.

Plus, Nathaniel said that Walter had something on her. What were they?

Could it be those nude photos?

Otherwise, why would Nathaniel be so angry?

Then, Mango suddenly recalled that Nathaniel had stopped touching her since that day.

She really believed it when Nathaniel said that he was impotent. Hence, she never expected that he would ask Noah for the medicine to achieve those symptoms.

Was that it?

Could it be that all of his sweet words and affections were fake?

Mango's heart couldn't seem to take any more of it.

Then, she retreated and stumbled backwards before she ran out of the study.

No!

She had to find out what was going on.

After that, Mango put on some simple makeup and took a cab to Walter's home.

Meanwhile, Walter had never expected Mango to come over, so he was obviously quite excited.

"My lovely Mango, you're here? Did you have some free time on your hands today? You... ouch!"

Before Walter could finish speaking, she immediately grabbed hold of his collar and spat out, "Tell me! Why did you and Nathaniel fight last time?"

"What? I don't know, he might have gone insane."

Walter wanted to use a joke to smooth over the matter.

However, Mango came all the way to his house to demand an explanation, so she wasn't going to accept his excuses.

"Walter, although I'm not as skilled as Nathaniel, I will not let someone threaten me for no reason at all. Please think carefully about this, if I don't get my answer today, I will kill myself right inside your home. In fact, I want to see what the Song Family would do if the mistress of the Ye Family dies here."

Mango's expression was truly terrifying, and it managed to strike fear in Walter's heart.

"What's wrong with you, Mango? We can talk this through if you let go of me first."

"Tell me! What did you have on me that's enough to make Nathaniel fight you on the street?"

Suddenly, Mango bellowed at Walter furiously.

Hence, Walter became afraid as he'd never seen Mango so deranged before. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"It's not my fault, and I really have no idea what happened. Nathaniel came over to investigate previously, and he discovered that I'd been framed. I don't know why those photos were on my phone, nor do I know who called Rainie using my phone and told her to come to the club. Everything after that was a blur. I know that you won't believe me and you'll think that I'm trying to find an excuse for myself, but I swear that I was in a daze that day. I truly have no clue who sent those photos to me. You know that despite my raunchy mouth, I would never stoop so low and take nude photos of you. Plus, I've never even had the chance to do so."

Walter blurted everything out without a care for what he should or shouldn't say.

Then, Mango's eyes narrowed slightly.

"You're telling me that Rainie went to the club because you sent my nude photos to her?"

"You don't know about this?"

Next, Walter suddenly realized that he seemed to have said too much.

"Did I just f*ck up by saying too much?"

Then, Mango let go of Walter before she slumped to the floor like a ragdoll.

"I see. No wonder she was so adamant against telling me why she went to the club. It's no wonder that Nathaniel is acting this way. This is why."

Mango's dazed look scared Walter out of his wits.

"Mango, are you all right? I'll call Nathaniel right now."

"No!"

Right now, the person she least wanted to see was Nathaniel.

Why?

Why did it have to be like this?

If he'd hated her since then, why did he dote on her like nothing happened?

How terrifying could he be?

Nathaniel was able to cover up all of this and pretended like none of it ever happened.

Furthermore, she'd thought that they were an unshakeable example of true love. But now, what was it all for?

She was a fool who was kept in the dark as he showered with sweet words. Hence, she thought that she had the world, but what happened in the end?

What was the result?

No one knew what Nathaniel was thinking, but a man would definitely be affected by this. If not, why would he take the medicine to avoid touching her?

He despised her!

He thought that she was dirty!

This realisation made Mango wish she were dead.

She would rather Nathaniel come and interrogate her instead of having this fabricated bliss.

Whether he wanted to deal with this on his own or if he had other plans, Mango was hurt.

How could he hate her so much that he was willing to take medicine to make himself impotent?

Hence, Mango was totally heartbroken.

Why had she ever believed in their love?

At that moment, all the colour drained from Mango's face.

On the other hand, Walter was concerned when he saw Mango like this.

"What happened, Mango? Listen to me, even though I hate Nathaniel, I don't think he's a petty man. Although I've been framed for possession of your nude photos, he still came to my house in the middle of the night and deleted all the photos. I never saw a thing, really! I swear!"

It would be fine if Walter didn't say anything, but the more Mango knew, the more hurt she became.

Deleting the photos didn't mean that they had ceased to exist.

Nathaniel had already been deeply affected by this incident, but he just kept it to himself.

Over the past few days, there was no telling how badly he had been affected by this. However, he still smiled and cared for her every day as if nothing was wrong.

Was it hard for him to do that?

Then, Mango suddenly started laughing.

She felt that she should be grateful to Nathaniel instead. He had at least saved her some dignity, right?

If these photos hadn't been exposed to the public, she might have foolishly believed that she was the happiest girl on the planet.

But now, her life had become so ironic.

Her happiness was fake.

She had been too indulgent as she'd thought that she had obtained the bliss that every woman looked forward to. But in the end, it was all a joke.

At first, Mango chuckled coldly before she burst out into a maniacal laughter as tears rolled down her cheeks.

This scared Walter out of his wits.

"Mango, don't be like this? What's wrong? Don't scare me! This won't do, I have to call Nathaniel. You're scaring me, I..."

"If you call him, I will never ever see you ever again."

Then, Mango gripped Walter's collar abruptly.

Her eyes were the colour of ash, and her heartbroken expression made Walter tremble in fear.

"All right, I won't call him. Don't get too worked up, okay? We'll deal with this slowly."

Deal with this?

Was there any way she could solve this problem?

She had lost her entire reputation.

No matter where those photos came from or who owned them, everyone in Ocean City had seen them.

She had shamed the Ye Family, Nathaniel, herself, and even the Shen Family.

No one would care if she was wronged or whether the photos were real. As long as she held onto her current identity, and as long as her face was in the photos, she could never find a way to prove her innocence!
