The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 756

Was she overthinking?

Could it be that Isla was already dead?

Mango didn't know what was true and what was not anymore.

"Alright, don't think too much about it. Leave that to Nathaniel. Since he wants to cleanse the Ye family thoroughly, let him. In the meantime, you could stay here and accompany these two old men of yours."

Mango chuckled at Mateo's words.

"Old men? You're just in your thirties."

"We're almost forty."

Mateo sighed and said, "I don't think we'll be able to pass down the Hans name. Look, who's willing to marry an old man like us?"

"I have someone who likes me, unlike you."

Terrance's words caused Mango to laugh too.

"Uncle is dating someone?"

"He's dating a ghost."

Mateo liked to burst Terrance's bubbles.

As they bickered, Mango thought that it looked exceptionally affectionate.

Then, Mango caught sight of Madam Hans' portrait as she was laughing.

"Uncles, can I pay grandmother a visit?"

"Of course."

After he said this, Mateo brought Mango to the family graveyard.

This wasn't the first time Mango had come to the Hans family's graveyard, but her heart was especially heavy this time.

Mango wasn't that fond of Madam Hans before, but in the end, who knew that she would give up her life for Mango. Because of this alone, Mango didn't hold any grudges against her anymore.

As she knelt in front of Madam Hans' grave, Mango touched her forehead to the ground three times.

Tears had welled up in her eyes unknowingly.

"Grandma, I'm sorry."

This was the first time Mango apologized to Madam Hans. Unfortunately, Madam Hans wasn't able to hear her.

Meanwhile, Mateo stood quietly by her side. When he saw how sad Mango was, he couldn't help but say, "Mango, don't be sad. You're our brother's daughter. Mom felt sorry for him the most. Back then, if she hadn't insisted on him joining the army, it wouldn't have turned out like this. You're his precious daughter. Mom was willing to do anything for you. As long as you're well, the Hans family would be well too."

"But I'm the one who killed grandma. If it weren't for me, grandma wouldn't have...”

"It's all in the past now. We all know grandma's intentions. Don't make things difficult for yourself. It breaks our hearts seeing you cry."

Mateo helped Mango up her feet.

Mango wiped her face and left the graveyard after bowing to Madam Hans once again.

Meanwhile, the children were still playing in the backyard.

Mango's frown couldn't help but turn into a smile when she saw how much fun they were having.

Wisdom had been living quite gloomily these days, but now he was playing happily with Rita in the playground. His bright smile could really chase away all the dark clouds.

By just watching the two kids playing around like this, Mango felt an irreplaceable happiness within.

"Mommy, come! Let's play together!"

Suddenly, Rita spotted Mango with her sharp eyes and quickly waved her over.

Mango shook her head with a smile and said, "You

guys have fun. Mommy's a little tired."

"Mommy, are you sick? Why do you always feel tired these days?"

Rita inquired Mango like an adult before adding, "Ah, mommy, you're not going to give birth to a little brother or sister for me and my brothers, are you? The shows on the television say that when you're sleepy all the time, you might have a baby inside you."

Mango was amused by her daughter's cheekiness.

"What kind of nonsense are you learning from those shows? Mommy won't have another little brother or sister, not anymore."

"Mommy, you can't give birth anymore because your tummy isn't strong, right?"

Rita's innocent words were like a sharp knife that pierced into Mango's heart.

She could only put on a bitter smile on the outside.

Thinking of her previous child, she told herself not to whine anymore, but in truth, she was still upset. How could she not be? It hurt her badly.

Hearing Rita's words, Terrance hurriedly pushed his wheelchair towards them.

"Rita, you three are enough to mommy and daddy.

Mommy will be very tired if there's another sibling."

"Really? But I'm the youngest. I want to be an elder sister too."

Rita said with a pout.

Mango was a little sad, but she knew that she couldn't let the children notice. She smiled and say, "Rita can still be the elder sister too. Aunt Genevieve is pregnant. When she gives birth, the baby would be Rita's little brother or sister."

"Really?"

Rita looked delighted at this.

"Of course. When did mommy ever lie to you?"

Mango's words made Rita leap in joy.

"Be careful."

"What's wrong with that? You should take this time to improve yourself, and you can leave the rest to me and your uncle. I have also heard that something happened in Walter's family. I know how close you and Walter are. He almost lost his life for you. Don't worry, the Hans family will repay this favor. I have already discussed this with Walter and Nathaniel, where our three families would work together to track Novalee down. You can focus on your work, we will take care of the kids for you."

Hearing Terrance's words, a sudden warmth spread across Mango's chest.

"Uncle, you're the best."

"Have you only learned that now? Then why haven't you returned for such a long time? I didn't have a clue about what you've been going through. We only learned about it from Nathaniel much later. Silly girl, you've been mute and have suffered so much. Why didn't you give us a call? Aren't we your family? Look at you. If you hadn't met Rainie along the way, what would you have become? If something were to happen to you, how are we supposed to explain it to your father?"

As Terrance rambled on, Mango suddenly recalled something.

"Oh no!"

"What's the matter?"

"Uncle, I've just thought of something. I'm going to my room."

After she said this, Mango dashed into her room in a flash.

Terrance had no clue what was happening, so he could only leave her be. After all, in this house, there was nothing he and his brother couldn't solve.

After Mango had rushed into the room, she closed the door and then called Rainie and her brother.

There wasn't any news from Rainie yet after so long. Not to mention that they were currently at Molvania's border. What if something went wrong?"

Too many things were happening at once recently, which was tiring Mango out. She was so tired that she had only recalled this right now.

After several tries, she still couldn't reach the both of them

Mango didn't give up and continued to call, but still, no one answered.

She felt worried all of a sudden.

Did something really happen to them?

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy Mango felt.

In the end, she had no choice but to call Thomas.

"Thomas, have you gotten in touch with Rainie recently? I just tried calling her but no one answered. Do you know where she is now?"

Mango asked anxiously.

On the other end, Thomas sighed and said, "Madam, I spoke to Rainie on the phone not long ago, but she didn't have the time to talk to me. She said that she was busy, and that you had given her a task. Madam, I'm fine with Mr. Ye bossing me around, but with Rainie's temper, I don't think you should leave her with any tasks. I'm afraid she will screw it up."

Upon hearing Thomas's words, Mango's tense body finally relaxed a little.

"Sorry, I really couldn't leave at that time. I could only turn to Rainie and her brother for help. I can't get in touch with them right now. If you can get through Rainie, could you ask her to return my call?"

Mango pleaded.

Thomas agreed without hesitation, but then added warily.

"Madam, Walter's mother, Sophia is missing. Does this have anything to do with my mother? You must not hide this from me."
