The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 736

"Mrs. Ye, what precious item is it?"

"Shh... it won't be a surprise anymore if I say it out. You should ask Novalee."

Mango smiled as she put the cold jade into her backpack and she loved it so much that she didn't want to let it go.

"Mr. Liu, I'll take them home then."

"Mrs. Ye, please don't hesitate to take them home and just treat it as a gift from me."

"No, no. It's a deal and I got it in exchange."

Mango smiled very happily.

Nathaniel couldn't help but laugh when he saw Mango's behavior and his eyes were filled with love as he stared at Mango.

At that instant, Bosco realized that he was playing the right trick.

Nathaniel doted on and loved Mango so much, so he would no longer have to worry that he wouldn't have the opportunity to work with Nathaniel after giving both jades to Mango.

Bosco laughed in his heart, but he still kept in mind that there was something valuable from Mango in Novalee's hands. Perhaps it might be more precious than the two jades. After all, Nathaniel's wife would not just take something so valuable from somebody without any gratitude, right?

Just as Bosco was thinking about what Mango had entrusted to Novalee, he heard Nathaniel ask him, "Mr. Liu, I heard that you're also a retired army?"

"Ah? Yes! I'm not as skillful though, and I'm no compare to you as I've started from scratch, but you're a noble young master."

Bosco's words made Nathaniel smile faintly.

"Noble young master? All of us are the same. Mr. Liu, my wife likes these stones, but what do you think if we cooperate with each other in one or two business projects when you're available? I heard that there are jewelry gambling activities here, so why don't we try it out when we have time?"

Nathaniel's idea were exactly what Bosco wanted.

"Of course, Mr. Ye, but jewelry gambling depends heavily on luck, especially now that there are not many raw jade stones left, so you can't buy it with money during the gamble. You have to be mentally prepared for this."

Bosco told him everything in advance as he was afraid that Nathaniel would become angry from embarrassment when he could not win anything from the gamble.

However, Mango smiled and said, "Mr. Liu, the Ye Family is really wealthy and as you know, our oil drilling company in Eastern Europe is enough to feed the Ye Family for a few generations. As for jewelry gambling, it doesn't matter even if we couldn't win as we're just playing for fun."

At that instant, Mango really seemed like a spendthrift.

Bosco heard what she said and he quickly looked at Nathaniel. When he saw that Nathaniel was still pampering Mango, he couldn't help but feel a little envious.

Sure enough, he was rich and overbearing!

"Mrs. Ye, you are so straightforward."

"Of course. The money I spend on jewelry gambling would be no comparison to the precious item that I left in Novalee's place, isn't it, my dear?"

Nathaniel's heart melted instantly when he heard Mango addressing him in such a manner.

"You're right."

His eyes sparkled as he looked at Mango and he had the urge to pull her into his embrace.

Then, Mango avoided his gaze and smiled at Bosco, "Why don't we go today instead? Mr. Liu, shall we go to gamble today?" "Well, Mr. Ye..."

Bosco subconsciously looked at Nathaniel.

However, Nathaniel said with a smile, "She's in charge of the Ye Family's bank account, so I'll do whatever she says since I'm just her employee and driver."

"Mr. Ye, you must be joking. I've long heard that you and your wife are deeply in love with each other. Well, let's go now if that's the case as the jewelry gambling session must have started. I can make a name card specially for you and Mrs. Ye."

Bosco's words immediately made Mango feel happy.

Then, he was the first to walk out of the house.

Mango followed closely behind, but Nathaniel pulled her into his arms and whispered, "Did you have fun?"

"It's not bad, but the real game hasn't started yet."

Mango rolled her eyes.

Then, Nathaniel smiled and pointed at her nose as he said, "Aren't you afraid that Novalee might not be able to afford the price of these two jades even if she sold her body?"

"Does it have anything to do with me? Why didn't she figure out that she does not have the capability when she provoked me?"

Mango tilted her head annoyingly and looked at Nathaniel.

However, Nathaniel loved the way she smiled at this instant.

"How come I don't know that the thing that you left with Novalee worths more than these two jades? Do you know that these cool jades are the best red jades? According to the market price, the raw stones alone are worth nearly ten million dollars, let alone such exquisite hand-made carvings."

Hearing Nathaniel's question, Mango couldn't help but laugh and say, "It's Walter! Walter's value and contributions worth far more than the two jades."

"Oh, so it turns out that Walter is just an object?"

"Of course not, Walter is not an object."

"Indeed, he's not an object!"

As soon as Nathaniel finished speaking, he couldn't hold back his laughter.

Mango realized that her words seemed wrong no matter how she put them and when she saw Nathaniel's smug smile, she asked in a somewhat sinister manner, "Is it very funny?"

Its so-so!

"How dare you laugh!"

Mango stretched out both of her hands and reached towards Nathaniel's armpit.

"Stop, stop!"

Nathaniel tried to dodge, but Mango didn't let him go and Bosco couldn't help but smile when he noticed their interaction.

His subordinates saw this scene and they whispered, "Mr. Liu, Mr. Ye really dotes on his wife a lot and he doesn't seem like the heir of a big family at all."

"What do you know? Nathaniel and Mango had gone through a lot of hardships, so Nathaniel wants to give his best to Mango right now. Anyway, the Ye Family will be ours as long as we take Mango down as this woman is just a spendthrift. We'll make her spend as much money as possible."

"Okay!"

A carve master cut the raw jade stone and it turned out to be an emerald, but it was not pure and it didn't contain many raw materials, so it was worth five or six million dollars at most.

Without a doubt, Mango had lost the bet this time.

"Mrs. Ye, I'm so sorry that you earned nothing this time."

Bosco said hurriedly.

However, Mango waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter as we've still got something valuable, isn't it? Mr. Liu, why don't you grind this thing into a small ornament and give it to Novalee? Tell her to put it on the precious item as we should add some embellishments on it at the very least, isn't it?"

Suddenly, Nathaniel's face became a little pale when he heard this.

"That thing is already priceless even without the jade."

Mango sensed Nathaniel's jealousy and she couldn't help but smile as she said, "I'll polish the jade that Mr. Liu gave me today and give it to you, okay?"

"Up to you."

Nathaniel turned his face away arrogantly, but his expression was much gleeful than before.

"What a jealous lover..."

Mango muttered to herself in her heart before she smiled at Bosco and said, "Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Liu."

"Not at all, not at all!"

Bosco quickly took it before ordering someone to polish it and he became increasingly interested in the valuable item that Mango mentioned.

On the other hand, Novalee was so angry that she almost smashed everything in the ward when she heard that Mango and Nathaniel didn't get Bosco into trouble but followed him to Nightowl instead.

"Walter, is this the woman you like? Is this the Nathaniel whom you regard as your friend? You are now in a coma, but you'll probably be mad too if you're awake, won't you?"

Novalee said with exasperation and she developed mixed feelings as she looked at Walter, who was sleeping on the hospital bed.

"Walter, can you hear me?"

Walter did not respond.

Suddenly, a man opened the door of the ward at this moment.

"Who is it?"

Novalee turned her head in an instant, only to find that the man was walking straight towards her.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Novalee became scared at that moment.

However, the man stopped in front of Novalee and whispered, "Miss Novalee, I am Mr. Liu's subordinate and he asked me to claim the precious item that Mrs. Ye left with you."

"What item? I have no idea!"

Novalee was confused, but it was unfortunate that the other party did not believe her words at all.
