The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 440

"Grandma, what else can I give you? How can you accuse me too? I'm doing this for you and you must believe me!"

Andrea said and she wept heavily.

However, Terrance refused to listen to her. Then he ordered someone beside coldly, "Keep an eye on her. The rest of us should go to the hospital first. Let's talk about it once we have the test results."

Madam Hans couldn't bear to see Andrea being treated like that.

"Don't tie her up. She is so weak and our bodyguards are around, so she won't be able to run away."

"Mom, why are you still defending her? You'd better not say anything now and let's go to the hospital first."

Terrance was speechless by Madam Hans's actions, but she was his mother.

Madam Hans thought for a while and she shut her mouth.

Andrea teared up instantly when she realized the situation.

"Grandma, Grandma! I won't hurt you, so you can't let Uncle do this to me. Look, I'm tied up. What should I do when I need to go to the toilet? Grandma!"

"Terrance..."

"Mom, let's go to the hospital first. If I wronged her, I will apologize to her. But right now, listen to me, alright?"

Terrance said firmly to his mother without giving her any chance to think.

Madam Hans sighed and she said to Andrea, "Andrea, I'm sorry for the time being, but don't worry. Grandmother will do justice to you."

After that, Madam Hans was escorted by Terrance's men.

Andrea flustered slightly.

So how now?

What should she do now?

As Terrance had bodyguards around the place to guard her, Andrea would not be able to escape at all.

While Terrance brought Madam Hans to the military hospital, Noah was already waiting for them at the entrance. He then welcomed them upon their arrival.

"Madam Hans, we need to take a blood test for you first."

Madam Hans trusted Noah as he was the general practitioner of the hospital.

After drawing the blood, Madam Hans was still struggling with Andrea's question.

"Terrance, Andrea will not hurt me. There must be some misunderstanding."

"Mom, let's talk about it after we have the report. I only believe in the report now."

Madam Hans was slightly angry at Terrance's words and she asked, "Did Mango say something to you? Is that why you treated Andrea in such a manner? Why are you behaving like that out of sudden?"

Madam Hans was biased towards Mango, which was why she tended to accuse Mango of everything.

Terrance sighed and she said, "Mom, Mango has nothing to do with the Hans Family and she won't care about us anymore. It doesn't matter if she knows about this matter or not. Even if she does, do you think she'll care for your life after what you did to her?"

"I'm her Grandma!"

Suddenly, Madam Hans was irritated by Terrance's words.

"Grandma? Look at you. Do you think that you act like one? Instead, I think you prefer Andrea as your granddaughter."

Terrance didn’t even bother to conceal his words, which made Madam Hans felt ashamed.

"Other than her, who else would go against Andrea then?"

"Mom, Noah came to check on you previously, so will he not know what's going on? Noah and Andrea are not related at all, so how can Noah accuse Andrea of no reason? Don't you trust Noah and his wife?"

Terrance's words made Madam Hans shut her mouth.

Half an hour later, the result of Madam Hans's examination was out.

When Noah handed the examination results to Madam Hans and Terrance for a look, Terrance's face immediately changed.

"What is the meaning of this?"

Madam Hans didn't understand but she did know that something was wrong with her blood result. This wasn't her first time doing a blood test but the current report data was different than her usual ones.

Noah looked at Terrance to ask for his permission.

Terrance nodded at him.

Noah said in a low voice, "Madam Hans, you are not weak, and there is nothing wrong with your health either. It's just that there's heroin found in your blood. Now, you are considered as a drug addict after being forced to consume the heroin for a long time."

"What are you talking about? Stop joking! How am I possibly taking drugs? I'm a family member of a martyr and I know that these things are illegal! Plus, it's going to ruin the family reputation!"

Madam Hans immediately became excited.

She looked at Terrance.

Terrance had a painful expression.

"Mother, it is true that you didn't do it. It was Andrea who added heroin into your food and medication. Now that the report was released, can you still trust Andrea? From your diet to your lifestyle, everything was handled by her. I know that you trust her more than me. Yet now, do you still want to defend her?"

Madam Hans was in a daze upon listening to Terrance's words.

"That is impossible! Andrea won't do this to me! This is ridiculous!"

"Tell me then. Who will have the chance to lay their hands on you? Do you think Mango did that? She doesn't even want to come to our house, so what can she do to you?"

Terrance's words had Madam Hans silent suddenly.

Her hands and her whole body were trembling. Looking at the blood test report, Madam Hans felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

Madam Hans had lived for more than seventy years, and she was upright for her entire life. Her husband and the family members of the Hans family even sacrificed themselves for the country.

She was the widow and the descendant of a martyr. She had countless honors, but how could she become a drug addict now?

"No! No way! Why would Andrea do such a thing? I'm a useless old woman. Why would she do this to me?"

"Why? Because she could control the Hans family through you. From the start, everything was a scheme and a trap when you two interacted with each other. Her words and actions, as well as her fake kindness, come with purposes. Think about it carefully, did you treat Mango like that in the past? Who caused the fall out between you two? Also, who pretended to be miserable in front of you and claimed that Mango was not good? If Andrea is doing everything for your good, don't you think that she was supposed to encourage our family to live in harmony? Plus, why would Queena's mother want to seek death along with Queena if Andrea is innocent? In the end, they left here. Mom, why are you getting confused despite living for so long?"

Terrance was heartbroken.

He didn't know what happened to Madam Hans that she trusted Andrea that much. Until now, she still refused to believe him, even in that condition.

Madam Hans was in a mess entirely.

"What should I do now? Dr. Soo, will I be saved?"

Noah looked at Madam Hans's pleading eyes and he said in a low voice, "Madam Hans, we will do our best, but we need your cooperation too. Although you've been poisoned for a short while, the toxins in your body are at a high level. Plus, your health is not as good as the young people. So, it may take a little effort."

Upon hearing Noah's words, Madam Hans knew what would happen and she nodded understandingly.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, but can you keep this as a secret for us? The Hans family has a good reputation, and such news shouldn't be leaked to the public."

"Don't worry, Madam Hans. I'll keep it a secret for the Hans family. All of today's data will be destroyed, and no one will know about it. Plus, I'll arrange for a remote sanatorium for you. It's just that I just hope you can hold on."

Noah did have the point and Madam Hans understood his meaning.

"I know."

Madam Hans seemed to have aged for ten years out of sudden, and her body slumped back at the chair.

Although it was hard to believe, she did like all the food prepared by Andrea within this period. On the contrary, whatever that was made by the servants, she felt that the taste was not right, as if something was missing.

Madam Hans had a huge blow now.

She trusted and dotted Andrea so much. So, Madam Hans never thought that she could do such a thing.

"I'm going back to see Andrea. I want to ask her the truth."

Madam Hans spoke suddenly. Her voice was full of vicissitude and loneliness.

Terrance knew that she was felt bad from the sudden revelation. But Madam Hans was a stubborn person, and she wanted to know the truth by herself.

"Alright. I'll take you home to ask about it, but you have to keep your mood steady and you can't be agitated."

Madam Hans nodded her head upon Terrance's words.

Noah went to arrange the rest of the matters hurriedly. At the same time, Terrance brought Madam Hans back to the Hans family residence.

Less than one and a half hours later, Madam Hans suddenly stood at the entrance of the Hans Family and she was unable to lift her feet to walk into the house.

Madam Hans felt that she had tarnished the Hans family's reputation and its glory.

Right now, the person whom she loved the most was tied in the house and Madam Hans was deeply hurt by Andrea. Such feeling made her felt as good as dead.

However, she was still Madam Hans. So, she took a deep breath before entering the house.

Terrance followed by her side. He didn't say anything while entering the house with her.

When Madam Hans saw Andrea again, the latter knew that her plan was exposed when she saw their expression.

Andrea was no longer pretending to be weak and pitiful. When she saw Madam Hans and Terrance appeared in front of her, Andrea smiled instead.

"What are you guys trying to do? Do you want to kill me? I'm the granddaughter of the Hans family that you announced to the public! I want to know how would you explain to the people in Ocean City if you kill me!"

Madam Hans had never seen such a strong side of Andrea and she was stunned for a moment.

"Andrea girl, why are you like this?" Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"What kind of person should I be then? Be submissive and obey your orders? Or should I be weak and cry all day long to beg for your kindness? Madam Hans, my Grandma, let's not create a scene anymore. Or are you telling me that you come home to release me?

Andrea snorted, but her words made Madam Hans speechless. At this point, there was an indescribable emotion lingered in her chest that made her suffocated.
