The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 561

"Don't hesitate. Go!"

Ryan immediately pushed them inside.

The bodyguards behind them tried to stop him, but Ryan blocked them.

"Hurry up!"

Walter gave Ryan a meaningful look. Then, he said to Mango, "Let's go!"

Mango knew that she should quit being hesitant. Even if Nathaniel would be in danger, she knew that she couldn't stay there anymore for the sake of Walter, Desmond, and the others.

She turned around with an affectionate gaze in her eyes. Then she quickly carried Walter on her back and ran forward together with Desmond.

Just then, Zion's call came in.

"Mommy, I have already hacked the system, and the piping system is going to explode in a few minutes. Take this opportunity to escape."

"Got it. Can you also help me check out the situation at the auction?"

Mango asked as she ran hurriedly.

Zion acted as instructed and said, "The auction is coming to an end, but there's no one left in the private room. The person there might've left."

Hearing Zion's words, Desmond breathed a sigh of relief.

"Marissa most likely left in advance for fear of attracting attention."

"Does the auction allow guests to leave early?"

Mango felt rather uneasy

"Yes, as long as she pays enough money. I think she still has some money in her hands. Although it's not a lot, she should be able to bribe the guard at the door."

Desmond knew Marissa's character like the back of his hand.

Thus, Mango was relieved upon hearing his words

"Let's hurry up and leave."

As they ran, they could hear the sound of water pipes exploding behind them, as well as the loud clamour coming from behind. Despite that, Mango turned a deaf ear and continued to run forward.

However, her heart and mind were constantly with Nathaniel.

The place that they escaped to turned out to be the riverside where Anaya had been found previously.

"So, the Underground City is at the end of the river."

Desmond frowned slightly as he spoke.

Mango glanced around and whispered, "My car is nearby. Although Walter's legs aren't in good condition, he can still drive. Take them back and ask Genevieve to take care of my children. As for my mother-in-law, I'll ask my uncle to help her."

"Are you going back?"

Walter looked at Mango and had already seen through her thoughts.

"I thought that you would send us back to the Ocean City. So, it turns out that you can't let him go after all."

"It's not just Nathaniel. I still have to meet with Yama Hades in three days. A little girl is still waiting for me to return and save her."

Walter furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing her words.

"A little girl? Is it the mute girl?"

"Yes, she knows you. She reacted when I talked about you, but she can't stay with me for the time being."

"Why not?"

"When I came here, she was thrown into the river to drown. Fortunately, she's still alive. I sent her to

Yama Hades and she saved her life. I have to pay her back."

Mango's words made Walter frown again.

"She was thrown into the river? Didn't I ask her to go to the Equatorial Hotel to find Emberly? How did that happen?"

"It seems that she was thrown into the river by Emberly. Besides, she is strongly related to this Underground City. Although I don't know what relationship you and Emberly share, you'd better stay away from her, because I may threaten her."

Hearing this, Walter became anxious.

"We're not close anymore, but we did have a relationship in the past. However, I just thought of her after coming here. Since the situation was urgent, I decided to get the little girl to ask her for help. How would I know that she actually had something to do with the Underground City?"

"Well, you don't have to explain anything to me. I don't care. But, I'm just gonna let you know that I'm probably going to butt heads with her."

"She's not my woman!"

Walter was at a loss for words.

If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have allowed Anaya to look for Emberly. Now that he was faced with Mango's misunderstanding, he felt unbearable pain in his heart. He even hated himself for being so stupid. Why was he such a womanizer?

However, Mango didn't seem to care at all, "Alright, aren't you going to hurry up and get them out? I've already run into Emberly anyway regardless of whether or not she's yours. Remember to have Noah treat your legs when you return. He might be able to help you."

"Stop worrying about me. I'm more concerned about leaving you here alone."

Walter was really worried.

He and Nathaniel were overwhelmed in this dangerous place. Hence, how could a weak woman like Mango be able to handle this? Furthermore, her body wasn't doing too well either.

Recalling Mango's physical condition, Walter suddenly became surprised.

"You've recovered? How is that possible? Genevieve clearly said that you..."

"You noticed it too, didn't you? Alright, stop asking. Hurry up and leave. It'll be too late when they catch up. You don't have to worry about me being here alone. With Zion helping me, and Yama Hades watching over me, no one will do anything to me. I heard that the Underground City and Yama Hades don't interfere with each other's affairs. If I'm really in danger, I'll hide over at her place."

Mango had no other choice but to tell him the ugly truth.

However, Desmond responded faintly, "It doesn't matter. I've been constantly in danger my whole life. Even if I wasn't here, I'm still an auction item everywhere I go. I'm being serious when I say that I'm going to pay you back. Although I can't fight, my blood really has magical properties. I'll use it to create a fortune for you."

"I don't need it! I don't want anyone to hurt themselves for me. What's more, money is not something I lack. I've said it before, and I won't say it again, you're free to go now."

After that, Mango walked in the direction of Yama Hades' place.

Now, they couldn't go back to the Equatorial Hotel anymore.

Since she was exposed in the Underground City, the Equatorial Hotel would be the first place they'd search for her. It seemed that the only place for her to hide was Yama Hades' hospital.

However, she didn't know where Nathaniel would go after escaping, and how could she contact him?

Moreover, Nathaniel was in a state of mental disorientation after the hypnosis. Could Yama Hades be able to help him?

Mango wasn't sure about all of this, but she still held onto that last shred of hope.

Even if Yama Hades wanted to take her life, she would still give it to her.

With this thought in mind, Mango arrived at the entrance of Yama Hades' Hospital, while Desmond followed her.

Then, Mango sighed softly and said, "Why are you doing this? To tell you the truth, I don't have many days left to live. In order to save them, I've already overdrawn my ill health. Even if I have the chance for recovery after I return, I don't have much time left. I've told you before, I don't lack money. You'd better leave quickly. Marissa is still waiting for you, isn't she? Go look for her. You've done a lot for me just now, and it's more than enough to pay for that money."

However, no matter what Mango said, Desmond didn't say anything. He followed her stubbornly and said, "You won't die. I've said before that my blood has magical properties. Furthermore, your husband's situation is still unknown. Frankly, I might be able to help him."

"You? Are you a hypnotist?"

Mango was quite surprised. However, Desmond shook his head and said, "I don't know how to hypnotise a person."

Hearing this, she was disappointed.

"What do you mean then?"

"Let me follow you. When it's time for me to leave, I'll leave on my own."

Mango was exasperated at his determined and resolute expression.

Then she whispered, "It's up to you. But I have to remind you that when you go in later, don't provoke the doctor inside. I can't protect you if that happens."

"Got it."

After that, Mango finally walked into the hospital. However, what surprised her was that the place looked completely different from before.

What happened?

Where was Anaya?

Mango suddenly became anxious.
