The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 473

"Hey!"

Mango tried her best to steady her voice, but it wasn't good enough.

Thus, Nathaniel noticed that something was wrong right off the bat.

"Are you crying?"

Nathaniel frowned anxiously and he stood up quickly. Hence, the needle in his arm giving him blood shifted into an uncomfortable angle.

"Mr. Ye..."

Evan was a little worried upon seeing this and he made Nathaniel sit down once again before he reinserted the needle.

On the other hand, Mango was sad when she saw what happened before coughing a few times, "I'm not crying, I just have a cold and my throat feels itchy."

Mango looked at the screen and she lied with a straight face.

Nathaniel, on the other hand, became a little anxious.

"A cold? Have you had medication? Did Genevieve come by and check on you? How did you catch a cold? Is my mom there? Have her make you some ginger tea. Your miscarriage has weakened your body, so the tea will help with that. Since I can't do anything for you, please take care of yourself. I'll be home in two days."

"You don't have to worry, okay? I'm fine. And a little cold was nothing. From how nervous you are, it's almost like I've fallen seriously ill."

Mango's words caused Nathaniel to frown even more deeply.

"Hey, stop with that nonsense! You'll be fine, and you'll be spending the rest of your life with me."

Although Nathaniel said so, his frown was so deep that a line was almost permanently etched into his brows.

He was so anxious that he wanted nothing more than to teleport to Mango's side.

Meanwhile, tears sprung to Mango's eyes as she saw how worried Nathaniel was for her.

"Don't worry about me, everything's fine at home. On the contrary, you have to take care of yourself, okay? Eat when you can and let me know if you're feeling unwell. Don't ruin your health just because you want to come back quick. I'll be unhappy then."

A satisfied smile broke out on Nathaniel's lips as Mango said that.

"I'm fine, don't worry. I'm eating and sleeping like a champ. Plus, I'm the heir of the Ye family, so I'm being treated well here. Let me tell you, I'm staying in a five-star presidential suite over here and I'm loving it."

Mango looked at the scene before her, and she quickly covered her mouth with her hand.

A five-star presidential suite?

He was superb at lying!

However, she couldn't cry because Nathaniel would figure out something was wrong. Thus, she forced her tears back.

"Mango? Why aren't you saying anything?"

Right now, Nathaniel was afraid to video call Mango, but he still had to ask when he heard silence on the other end of the call.

Mango tried her best to suppress her sadness before replying, "I'm thinking about what your presidential suite looks like."

"It's not like you haven't seen it before, so why are you thinking about it?"

"Well, I haven't experienced a five-star suite overseas. Next time we go on a vacation, we have to stay in one."

Mango rambled on about the suite.

Then, a smile instantly appeared on Nathaniel's face.

He looked handsome man when he smiled, and he could even make people fall for him at first sight.

If Helen of Troy had a face that launched a thousand ships, then Nathaniel would be the male version of it.

Mango looked at the video of Nathaniel in a daze before asking, "Hey, I just remembered how good you look when you smile. Are you laughing at how silly I am?"

"No, I'd never laugh at you."

Although Nathaniel said so, the smile on his face widened.

Because of the smile, his expression and demeanor improved greatly.

Mango was afraid that Nathaniel would catch a cold because of his sweaty body. Then, she replied, "Hey, I'm going to cut this call short because I need to take my medicine. Zion and Rita are going to kindergarten for the time being, so I need to arrange things for them. I've been busy recently, so I won't call you if I don't have anything important to say. If you're busy, it's fine if you take longer to come back."

"Why? We haven't seen each other for close to a week, don't you miss me?"

In fact, Nathaniel felt a little hurt.

Mango really wanted to tell him that she missed him, she really did!

Of course she missed him!

She wanted nothing more than to teleport to his side and hold him in her arms.

Alas, she couldn't!

Then Mango coughed to cover the sound of her sobs.

"Of course I miss you, but I'm afraid that you would be tired."

"It's okay, I can sacrifice a little sleep if that means I can see you earlier. Okay, let's end the call so you can have your medication. Make sure you're all healed when I get back, okay? If not, you'll have hell to pay!"

"Okay!"

Mango replied as she hung up the call.

She nearly lost control over there.

On the other hand, Nathaniel smiled widely after he hung up the call.

He turned to Evan on the side before saying, "There are still two days left, so my body will be able to heal by then, right?"

"That still depends on your symptoms. If they reduce by tomorrow, then you'll be fine by the day after. However, Mr. Ye, I still advise you to listen to Mr. Soo's instructions and stay for another two days. Didn't your wife tell you that she wasn't in a hurry to see you?"

"How could she not be in a hurry to see me? She always says things that she doesn't mean. God knows how anxious she must be after not seeing me for a week, but she said that only to prevent me from being worried. My wife is a considerate woman, and she always puts herself last."

Mango's eyes filled with tears once more as she heard Nathaniel's opinion of her.

Then Noah turned off the video feed.

Mango then put on a very forgiving air and she replied, "Fine, I'll forgive you for lying to me this time, but there will be no next time, okay?"

"Yes, your wish is my command!"

Rainie was finally relieved when she discovered that Mango was crying about her uterus condition.

The two of them chatted for a while longer before Mango replied, "I'm going to take a nap, so please wake me after half an hour."

"What? You're limiting your sleep now? It's not like you have anything to do, so why only half an hour?"

"I have some errands to tend to, but I'm a little sleepy. Will you help me or not? If you refuse, I'll just go to the nurse."

As she spoke, Mango made it look like she was going to seek out the nurse before Rainie stopped her.

"Fine, I'm just worried about you, okay? I will follow your words then. Hurry up and sleep, you look ugly when you cry."

"Nobody asked you to look my way."

Mango grumbled before she fell asleep on the bed.

Meanwhile, Thomas was still worried about Mango and he quickly asked about her condition. Hence, Rainie gave him a quick explanation of what went down.

Then Thomas breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, you still can't get in touch with Nathaniel?"

Rainie's opinion of Nathaniel had taken a huge hit.

Thomas spoke softly, "I think Mr. Ye has his own errands to attend. Our job is just to take good care of Mrs. Ye."

"Yeah, you can keep defending him all you want. Let's see what I'll do to Nathaniel once he comes back."

Thomas did not say much else to his hot-tempered girlfriend. Instead, he decided to go back to guard Mango.

Half an hour later, Rainie gazed at Mango, who was sleeping soundly and she contemplated waking her up.

At that moment, Mango's phone suddenly rang.

Her eyes opened instantly, and she realized that it had been exactly half an hour after she checked the time.

Rainie sighed before saying, "Why did you wake up? You asked me to wake you, but you still set your alarm?"

Mango was a little confused before she realized that the phone was ringing. However, the phone was not hers.

It was Zion's phone!

Was Walter calling Zion?

Mango frowned deeply when she realized that Walter was waiting for Zion's reply.

Now that Rainie was with her, how was she going to explain this to Walter? Wouldn't Rainie figure everything out if she said something?

She wasn't afraid of Rainie running her mouth, but this was not a small matter. It was best if fewer people knew about this before they found the true mastermind, plus Mango didn't want Rainie to get involved either.
