The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 691

"What's wrong? Did your boyfriend call you? If that's, so, you should go first and we can go by ourselves."

Walter suggested straightforwardly.

Zendaya hurriedly explained, "No, it's my brother and I don't have a boyfriend yet."

She glanced at Walter shyly as she spoke.

Walter felt so disgusted that he had goosebumps all over his body when he looked at Zendaya, although he would have responded to a woman who gave him such a hint in the past.

"Hurry up and make the call."

Walter found Novalee rather cute as he turned around and saw her looking at the two of them curiously.

At that moment, he had the urge to pinch Novalee's chubby cheeks.

Walter reached out to her face at the thought of this.

"Hey! What are you doing?"

Novalee thought that Walter was simply insane as he pinched her face all of a sudden, and she felt a lot of pain.

However, Walter burst out laughing.

"You look exactly like Zion right now!"

"Who is Zion?"

Zendaya perked up her ears when she heard Novalee's question.

Walter said with a smile, although he realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, "He's a mischievous boy, but really cute."

Zendaya felt relieved the moment she heard that it was a boy.

Them, Novalee became curious about Zion.

"Is he your son?"

"I would be so upset if I had such a son... I can let you meet him now."

Walter video called Zion directly.

The call went through in an instant.

"Uncle Song, is there anything I can help you with? I'll need to charge you fees for that."

Zion was bored to death.

Both his mother and Mr. Ye weren't with him and although Rita and Wisdom were around, they were joined at the hip. Rita no longer enjoyed spending time with Zion as she preferred listening to Wisdom's stories.

Zion didn't have the chance to play his role as Rita's brother because Wisdom would always try his best to fulfill Rita's wishes owing to his love for her.

Zion was so bored that he had already hacked several websites, and he observed how they spent weeks repairing them. He was really frustrated but he could only stay in the hospital since his cast hadn't been removed.

Also, he had no idea where Rainie and Denver were, so no one was here to spend time with him.

It was right at this time that Walter video-called him, so Zion was incredibly excited.

Walter said with a smile at the sight of this, "I don't need your help. I just want to introduce a friend to you."

"Is she your girlfriend?"

Novalee was at a loss when she heard Zion's words.

However, Walter pulled Novalee to his side before saying with a smile, "She's my friend, Novalee Zhang! What do you think?"

"Nice to meet you, Novalee! I'm Zion!"

Zion waved at Novalee politely.

Zendaya let down her guard in an instant the moment she saw that Zion was just a child, and she stepped aside to make a call.

"Dakari, Walter will go to you with Novalee later to sign a contract with you, but don't agree to the collaboration yet."

"What are you up to again?"

Dakari was displeased as his sister was always caught up with trivial matters, and he wanted nothing more than to cut ties with her.

However, Zendaya said like a spoiled child, "Come on, just don't sign it yet and ask them to have Ms. Shen come over and sign the contract herself, please..."

Dakari was stunned.

"Why must I insist on having Ms. Shen come over?"

"Well, I fell for Walter and I found that his family is really wealthy. Haven't you always wanted an influential brother-in-law?"

Dakari thought about it for a moment after hearing what Zendaya said before he agreed to her.

On the other side, Walter and Novalee had no idea what the two of them were talking about.

Novalee had a good impression of Zion the moment she saw him.

"Zion, am I right? You're so handsome!"

"Everyone says the same thing and you're truly flattering me."

Zion wasn't modest at all.

Walter felt that Zion resembled Nathaniel as he was also really thick-skinned.

"You're totally Nathaniel's son."

"Of course! My mom chose my dad over you precisely because my dad is way more powerful than you."

Zion's words stabbed Walter in the heart.

"Zion, can you mind your words? What do you mean that your mom didn't want to choose me? Don't you know that your mom was already married when I met her? Otherwise..."

"That is to say, my mom and dad are destined to be together, whereas you're not meant for my mom although the both of you met!"

Walter became speechless at Zion's words and he felt upset.

"You've no idea, you little punk!"

"Oh, are you getting angry? Look, Novalee, you'd better stay away from him. He might bite when he's mad!"

Walter said without a second thought in response to Zion's words, "Novalee is the one who bites, not me!"

"How do you know?" "What a stupid question...it's because I've been bitten by her."

Novalee pulled at Walter's sleeves harshly as soon as he finished speaking.

"Zion, how can you do this! Don't try to threaten me just because you have good IT skills, let me tell you..."

"I can hack into your phone's system in just a few seconds as don't forget that I have left a bug in your phone last time. I could easily look for it and by that time..."

Walter surrendered before Zion could finish his

words.

"Alright, I'll tell you the truth! Your dad has some minor injuries as he was in a car accident, but your mom is taking care of him. You'd better not disturb them as your parents came here for a honeymoon, and they will only get closer now that your dad is injured."

"Uncle Song, would you even believe your own words?"

Walter became speechless the moment he heard Zion speak.

"That's what happened anyway... You can ask your mom yourself if you dare."

Having said that, Walter hung up the phone and threw it to Novalee as he was afraid that Zion might ask him for more details.

He was the one at fault!

Why did he video-call Zion out of the blue?

Why did he provoke that little devil?

Novalee whispered as she noticed how anxious Walter seemed, "It'll be fine, okay? He's just a child."

"You don't understand as Zion is not an ordinary child. Have you ever seen a four-year-old child who can hack the security system of a company and outwit adults while flying a drone? Fate brought Zion and me together so that he could torture me!"

Novalee stared at Walter open- mouthed with amazement when she heard what he said.

"What are you talking about?"

It was right at this moment that Zendaya approached them.

She was very jealous of the interaction between Novalee and Walter.

She really wished that Walter would treat her like this.

Walter was perturbed when he saw Zendaya, so he said coldly, "What did your brother say?"

"My brother said that he's waiting for you at Winterbourne Lodge, and he decided to hand over the project to you as he heard that I'm working in your company."

Zendaya thought that Walter would praise her, but he unexpectedly remained emotionless as he said to Novalee, "Wait for me here. I'll go get the car."

Novalee nodded.

Then, Zendaya spoke to Novalee coldly after Walter left. "Hey! You sit at the back seat when Walter is here and don't fight for the passenger seat with me, do you understand?"

Novalee ignored her.

Zendaya was so angry that she said in a low voice, "I will ask my brother to reject working with your company if you go against my will... You should know that you won't be able to expand your business to this city nor earn any income if my brother rejects you. It doesn't matter how capable you are!"

Novalee recalled the promise she made to Mango and Mango's ambition in expanding her business to this area, so she bit her lower lip and said, "I won't fight with you."

"That's the way."

Zendaya was very proud.

At this moment, Walter arrived.
