The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 345

Terrance was shocked upon hearing Nathaniel's words.

"Did that really happen?"

He looked at Mango with a hint of heartache in his eyes.

Then, Mango replied faintly, "It seems like the Hans Family's requirements are far too high for me to meet. Hence, I think I should let Andrea become part of them. Even if I don't have an identity now, I'm sure Nathan will find a way to get me one, right?"

After Mango finished speaking, she turned around and left.

"Mango, wait a minute. My mother may not know about this. How about you come in and explain it to her first?"

Terrance panicked when he saw Mango's determination to walk away.

What would he do if she refused to identify as a member of the Hans Family?

However, Nathaniel wasn't as nervous as Terrance and he replied faintly, "It seems like Madam Hans has gone senile after her stroke. If you won't accept Mango into your family, then I will. In the future, I hope that all of you control your adopted daughter, otherwise, don't blame me if I disrespect the Hans Family."

After Nathaniel said that, he followed behind Mango as they both walked away and Terrance's efforts to call after them were in vain.

Meanwhile, Mango was extremely upset and her heart was filled with anger.

Her relationship with Andrea had always been hostile. However, Madam Hans apparently wanted Andrea to be the adopted daughter of the Hans Family even inducted Andrea into their ranks at the same time as Mango.

It seemed that Andrea wasn't joking when she said that she would take away everything that Mango held dear.

After that, Mango walked increasingly faster as a mess of thoughts overwhelmed her mind. She was incredibly upset, but suddenly a pair of arms pulled her backwards right before a car flew past her.

"Watch it, dumba*s!"

The driver cursed angrily before he stepped on the accelerator and sped away.

Nevertheless, Mango was still a bit dazed when she heard Nathaniel said worriedly, "Why are you endangering yourself for someone so irrelevant?"

The familiar warmth quickly jolted Mango back to her senses.

When she suddenly looked up into Nathaniel's worried eyes, she felt apologetic for her actions.

"I'm sorry."

"You don't have to apologize to me. I know that you're upset. Can you tell me how to make you feel better? Thomas told me that women usually go shopping or eat when they're upset, so which one would cheer you up now?"

Nathaniel's doting look immediately lifted the sadness in Mango's heart.

So what if the Hans Family disliked her?

So what if no one in the entire world liked her?

In the end, she would still have Nathaniel!

He was willing to give her the world to make her happy, so what was there for her to be unhappy about?

Then, Mango suddenly burst into laughter. Then, she ignored the people on the street and she wrapped her arms around his neck as she whispered, "What if I'm not either of them?"

Her breath gently tickled Nathaniel's neck and he could clearly feel each exhale against his skin.

Over the past month, Nathaniel had cuddled Mango to sleep every day, but it was essentially torture for him. Now that she was teasing him in public, wasn't she afraid that he would lost control?

Then, Nathaniel suddenly pulled her flush against his waist and the familiar hardness made Mango blush.

"Gosh, you're such a devil!"

"Me, a devil? I wonder who's teasing me in public, hm? Mrs. Ye, just what do you intend on doing?"

Nathaniel's eyes had become dark and his gaze was filled with intense desire, which intimidated Mango.

"Can't I just be tired?"

When a woman wanted something, they would always find a reason to justify it.

Then, Nathaniel smiled gently.

"Of course you can! Whatever you say, Mango. However, I've already decided to take you somewhere else."

"Where are we going?"

Meanwhile, Mango's mind was muddled by Nathaniel's bewitching scent.

In fact, Nathaniel really wanted to ravage her right now as he looked at her blushing face. Alas, they were in public, so the only thing he could do was to lean down and kiss her fiercely. This garnered multiple whistles from the crowd around them.

Then, Mango finally remembered where she was and she was so ashamed that she almost hid her face in Nathaniel's embrace.

Then, Nathaniel let out a muted laugh, which caused Mango to be even more embarrassed.

She hammered Nathaniel in then chest with punches, but he caught her wrist and whispered, "Have you had enough?"

"Ugh, you're so annoying!"

Mango felt as if everyone around them was staring at them, so she gritted her teeth and sprinted away from the scene with Nathaniel.

After that, Nathaniel broke into a happy smile as he felt that Mango was extremely adorable.

Both of them ran for a while before Mango stopped as she panted for breath. When she realised that she was in a different part of town, she said, "That was so embarrassing."

"Isn't it normal for a husband and wife to be intimate? However, my dear Mrs. Ye, we're very far from where we parked the car."

Nathaniel's reminder made Mango's mind go blank before she recalled what she just did. Hence, she felt so annoyed with herself.

Then, Nathaniel just glanced at her before he took the phone and entered the destination.

It didn't take long for the cab to arrive.

Next, both of them got into the car and went to Central Hospital.

Then, Mango's phone rang as soon as she reached the entrance of the hospital. She realised that it was the Hans Family calling once she glanced down at it, and she deliberated on whether to pick it up.

Then, Nathaniel picked up the phone when he witnessed her hesitation.

"Hey, my phone!"

Alas, Nathaniel ignored her and clicked on the answer button. Then, Madam Hans's voice came from the other side.

"Mango, I heard that you left right after you arrived at the mansion? What happened? Did you forget something? Or are you feeling unwell?"

Meanwhile, Mango had no idea how to respond to Madam Hans's question.

On the other hand, Nathaniel sneered and replied, "Madam Hans, that seems rather unlikely, isn't it? I'm sure Terrance has told you why Mango wouldn't enter the Hans Family mansion, so why are you playing dumb? Since you're in the middle of recognizing your new granddaughter, Mango left because she decided that she shouldn't disturb you."

Madam Hans was rendered speechless as she didn't expect Nathaniel to answer the phone.

"Hey, no matter how you put it, I'm Mango's biological grandmother, so could you be more polite to me?"

"Sure I can, but that depends on how you treat Mango. How could you induct an outsider without telling Mango? Do you think that Mango wouldn't be able to survive without your family? Sorry, but she couldn't care less about you. Since you want to recognize someone else as your granddaughter so badly, then stop bothering Mango. As for the issue of Mango's identity, that will be taken care of without the Hans Family's involvement."

After that, Nathaniel immediately hung up and turned off the phone without even hearing Madam Hans's reply.

Then, Mango shook her head at Nathaniel's nonchalant way of handling things, "How would you know if I agreed to what you said?"

'Am I wrong, though? Would you like to share family ties with Andrea?"

Mango shook her head and replied to Nathaniel's question, "All right, you win. You're right about that."

"Yeah, they are your family, but you don't have to trouble yourself for them. You know I can't see you being wronged like that."

After that, Nathaniel patted Mango's head.

At that moment, Mango felt as if all of her worries were washed away.

"Got it.”

She scrunched up her nose cutely at Nathaniel before she put her troubles away for the time being.

Then, both of them entered the hospital after they got off the cab, and Mango had a full- body examination done under Nathaniel's orders. He heaved a sigh of relief when the doctor gave Mango the all-clear.

As they walked out of the hospital, Nathaniel piped up secretively, "Let me take you somewhere nice! I'm sure you'll like it!"
