The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 484

Nathaniel cleared his throat and he held Rita's hand.

"My dear, girls shouldn't be looking at boys' crotches."

"He peed his pants, so I talked to him about it. Yet, Bobby said he didn't do it, so I told him to take off his pants and prove it. But he refused and called me a ruffian, so that's why we all ignored him."

Rita explained haughtily, but Mango felt as if she was going to die from embarrassment.

Her daughter had actually asked to see someone else's private part, so naturally, the other party would resist.

Was Rita really their daughter?

How did Mango not know how shameless their daughter was?

She felt a huge wave of shame crash over her.

If Mango knew the truth, then she wouldn't have set foot into the class.

On the other hand, Nathaniel was also very surprised.

Only Zion remained calm as he was on the scene when the incident happened. Although Rita was quite brash, it was his duty to protect her.

It would be Bobby's honor for his sister to look at his nether regions, right?

Bobby cried harder when he heard Rita's words.

"Mommy, she's so mean! I only tried to take off her skirt because she wanted to see my private parts! It's only fair!"

Bobby might not know what fairness was, but to kids, it was an eye for an eye all the time.

Ms. Liu finally understood what was going on.

She cast an awkward glance at everyone before asking, "Um, so how should we handle this?"

Mango was extremely embarrassed.

How was she going to deal with this?

She wanted nothing more than to hide Rita while leaving as soon as possible.

It was extremely shameful!

This was the first time that she'd ever seen a little girl asked to see another boy's lower regions.

However, Nathaniel was rather calm and he said, "I'll leave it to you, Ms. Liu."

His words made Ms. Liu a little befuddled.

Up to her?

What was she going to do?

Nathaniel was literally the leader of Ocean City, and Ms. Liu would lose her job if she didn't handle this well.

However, she couldn't help but blank out for a moment upon looking at Zion and Rita's eyes.

Children were simple- minded. If she didn't correct them, who would do so in the future?

As the thought crossed her mind, Ms. Liu cleared her throat to say, "Rita, it was wrong of you to encourage the other kids to isolate Bobby just because he didn't want to show you his private parts.

So, you have to apologize to Bobby."

Ms. Liu's back was drenched in a cold sweat as she said this.

After all, Rita was Nathaniel's daughter!

If Nathaniel was offended, she would lose her job, right?

Rita frowned as if she didn't expect Ms. Liu to ask her to apologize. Then, she couldn't help but turn her head to face Nathaniel and Mango.

"Daddy, Mommy!"

"You have to admit your mistakes. I won't accept it if my daughter can't differentiate between right and wrong."

Nathaniel usually doted on Rita and he would give her the whole world. However, he knew that Ms. Liu was doing the right thing.

Rita then turned to look at Mango.

Mango replied in a soft voice, "I agree with your Daddy. Although you are our daughter, you're on your own when you're at kindergarten. So, you need to take responsibility for your actions."

When she realized that her parents weren't going to defend her, Rita pouted before approaching Bobby to say, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I shouldn't have asked the others to isolate you. I am wrong, and I apologize for that!"

Rita was truly remorseful over what happened.

On the other hand, Bobby didn't expect Rita to say sorry.

It was her first time at kindergarten, and she attracted everyone's attention immediately like a noble princess.

Bobby had wanted to talk to her, but Rita disliked him because he'd unfortunately sprayed some water on his pants in the bathroom. Furthermore, she'd even demanded to look at his private parts.

Bobby always felt that Rita was a stuck-up little girl, and he didn't like her at all. But now, she was apologizing to him.

Thus, Bobby was stunned for a moment.

When Ms. Liu saw Bobby's reaction, she quickly smiled before saying, "Bobby, what should you say when Rita's apologized to you?"

"I forgive you."

Bobby said subconsciously.

Ms. Liu continued, "But Bobby, you were at fault too. You're a boy, and you can tell the teacher when Rita's done wrong. Instead, you tried to take off her skirt. Do you think your action is right?"

Then, Bobby quickly lowered his head.

He was ashamed upon spotting Rita's dirty dress, and he said, "I'm sorry, Rita. I shouldn't have tried to take off your skirt and made it dirty. I'll have my mother buy a new one for you tomorrow, so please don't be angry, okay? Can we be friends?"

Rita then looked over at Zion hesitantly.

Zion replied faintly, "You can be friends with him if you want to, and there's no need to seek my permission. The only reason I hit him was that he bullied you. I was at fault today too, as I shouldn't

have hit him. I'm sorry, Bobby."

After he finished speaking, Zion didn't say much else and before standing aside.

Rita bit her lower lip and glanced at Bobby before saying, "I'm not sure if I want to be friends with you, but I think I made a mistake today. You've gotten your revenge, and your Mommy hit me as well, so let's consider it even, okay? We can be friends starting from tomorrow."

"That's a good idea!"

Bobby immediately laughed.

Ms. Liu finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that all three children had made up.

"Mrs. Montford, Mr. Ye, children are innocent beings. If we don't interfere, they're very capable of solving their problems."

Ms. Liu only realized who she was speaking to after finishing her sentence, and she suddenly became nervous.

On the other hand, Ms. Liu reminded Nathaniel of how Mango was in the past and he couldn't help but smile.

This was the teacher's first time seeing Nathaniel smile.

In the past, all of his photos in the newspaper were serious. Now, his smile seemed to take her breath away.

Ms. Liu couldn't help but feel a little dazed by his smile.

Meanwhile, Mango's brows furrowed slightly and she cleared her throat.

"Ahem! Ms. Liu, since it's all settled, may I take my kids home now?"

As she spoke, Mango subconsciously pulled Nathaniel away.

On the contrary, he didn't know why Mango seemed so upset as he glanced at her. Hence, he assumed that she was still mad about Rita being hit, so he said, "Mango, our kids have solved the problem, and Zion's beat Bobby up. Let's just put this behind us, okay? At least it would make Ms. Liu's job easier."

It wasn't a big deal, but his words delighted Ms. Liu when she heard them.

Woah! Mr. Ye actually said to make her job easier for her?

Did he think highly of her after she handled the matter earlier well?

Just then, Ms. Liu replied with a shy smile, "You flatter me, Mr. Ye. I am just doing my job."

Mango looked at the bashful expression in Ms. Liu's eyes and she became even more agitated.

"Have I said that I am going to dwell on this?"

After that, Mango glared fiercely at Nathaniel before she turned to Mrs. Montford while saying, "My son hit your son, you hit my daughter, and I hit you. In the end, this is a problem between our children, so how about this? We'll pay for your son's medical bills, and we'll call it a day, okay?"

Mrs. Montford was still concerned that the Ye family would take revenge, so she was overjoyed upon hearing those words.

"No, I was at fault! I hit your son first, and I'm the aggressor in this situation. I'll pay the medical bills for Mrs. Ye, all right?"

"It's fine. Since everything has been sorted out, we'll be taking our leave."

Mango nodded towards Mrs. Montford before she turned to Zion and Rita while saying, "Zion, Rita, let's go."

"See you, Bobby."

Rita even waved her hand at him!

Ah, her daughter was so heartless!

By now, Mango was rather annoyed.

Meanwhile, Zion was rather surprised upon glancing at Nathaniel as he walked next to

Mango.

He realized that his father seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

However, Zion didn't say anything. Instead, he reached out his hand to Nathaniel.

Nathaniel gazed at his proud son and he smiled. Then, he picked Zion up to put him on his left shoulder.

"Ah!" NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

Zion was obviously a little surprised.

When she spotted Nathaniel carrying Zion, Rita demanded, "Daddy, carry me too!"

Even though Mango was a little angry with Nathaniel for unintentionally flirting with Ms. Liu, she still had to say something when Rita wanted to be carried as well.

"Rita, Daddy can't carry you two at the same time."

"Who said that I couldn't? Come, baby girl! I will bring you up to your brother!"

As Nathaniel spoke, he placed Rita on his right shoulder.

Both children laughed happily as they rode on their father's shoulders.

Although Zion was very mature for his age, he was extremely glad to be treated like this by Nathaniel.

It was not that he had never longed for it. Zion just felt like it was too childish for him to ask for it directly. However, he was particularly happy when Nathaniel babied him like this.

Meanwhile, Mango was worried about Nathaniel's well-being.

"Are you all right? Don't drop the children, just put them down."

However, Nathaniel was in a good mood today.

Today was the new beginning, and it felt good to be reunited with his family.

With his kids on his shoulders, he quickly rushed outside.

"Let's go! Daddy will take you flying!"

"Yay! We're flying, Daddy! Faster!"

Rita was so excited that she shrieked happily.

Although Zion did not yell, he still laughed in delight.

Mango shook her head as she witnessed Nathaniel acting like a madman. Just as she turned to bid farewell to Ms. Liu, she saw that the teacher had a lovesick expression on her face as she stared

blankly at Nathaniel's retreating figure.

Mango's eyes suddenly narrowed.
