The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 770

"Who's there?"

Delilah suddenly became nervous.

Mitchell got up quickly. He tied his belt and quickly came to the window.

Mango secretly cursed herself for being too careless. It seemed a little difficult for her to escape without getting noticed now.

"What should I do?"

Just as Mitchell was about to push open the window, there was a knock that came from outside the door.

"Doctor Abarough, the director would like to have a word with you."

Mitchell stood there stunned.

"Hold on, I'll be right there in a minute."

"The director is quite eager to see you. He wants you there right now. I think it's about your evaluation."

The nurse outside was getting impatient.

Delilah furrowed her brows tightly.

Mango took the opportunity and quickly went inside the ward on the other side. Luckily, it was empty.

Delilah pushed Mitchell aside and opened the window. A flower pot shattered on the floor. Although no one was standing outside, it still didn't ease her.

Mitchell looked down and muttered, "Maybe it's a wild cat or something. This is the 13th floor. Who do you think could stand outside the window of the 13th floor? Do you think this is a movie?"

Delilah still felt a bit uneasy.

"I don't care, I need to watch the surveillance camera. I don't feel secure no matter what."

"Can you not cause any trouble? I told the nurse that I am here for a lunch break. I need a reason in order to check the surveillance camera. I can't say that I lost something during my lunch break, can I?"

Delilah chuckled as Mitchell finished his words. "Why can't you? What if you really lost something?"

"Ma'am, do you know that I have to shut down all the surveillance cameras in here before going on a date with you? People would have discovered our relationship a long time ago if I hadn't done it."

Mitchell felt that Delilah was a little dumb today.

Delilah was pissed off at this.

"But there was someone here just now."

"Where? This is the 13th floor! Do you want to go out the window and give it a try to see whether it's possible or not?"

Mitchell was a little annoyed at this point.

Just then, the voice of that nurse came from outside again.

"Doctor Abarough, are you still there?"

"That nurse is so clingy to you. What's the matter? Don't tell me you've hooked up with her too?"

Delilah was suddenly jealous.

Mitchell felt that Delilah was being unreasonable.

"What do you mean? I'm a doctor here, for God's sake. Isn't it normal for me to interact with them? Aren't you tired of keeping an eye on me every day? What more do you want? You have a husband and a son by your side. But I can't marry nor date anyone cause I have to wait for you? Aren't you going too far?

Delilah immediately grabbed on Mitchell's collar and said, "Am I going too far? Don't forget I did this for who? Mitchell, don't be ungrateful! Yes, you're not married or dating anyone, but don't think I don't know what you have done with those women behind my back." "What do you want? I am a man! A man with needs! I can't hold it in for so many years! When I needed you, you were lying on Carter's bed. What makes you think that you have a say in my life right now?"

Mitchell pulled away from Delilah and let out coldly, "If you want me to end Novalee, you better not provoke me right now."

"What the hell are you talking about? I did all of that for you and our son!"

"Delilah, I've done everything I could for your sake. I will never marry anyone for the rest of my life. But don't interfere with what I can or can't do with my life. Unless you made sure you won't have sex with Carter anymore.

After finishing his words, Mitchell slammed open the door and left.

Delilah stood there completely startled, then slowly sat down on the bed and cried.

Mango could hear everything clearly in the room she's in. However, she did not dare to stay for too long. She was afraid that Delilah would suddenly realized something and come over to look for her.

She quickly walked out of the ward and saw Boden holding a cloak which he immediately put on her.

"Madam, I heard some noises and asked a nurse to call Mitchell away."

Mango was very impressed by Boden's actions, but she was still concerned, "If Mitchell found out that the director didn't look for him, he would probably notice something is up, so let's hurry and leave."

"It's okay, madam. I've gone to see the director before. I told him that Mr. Ye disagree with Mitchell's evaluation. So, he actually do need to see Mitchell."

Mango was amazed by Boden's words.

"You went to see the director just now?"

"Yes."

"How do you know Mitchell was going to have his professional evaluation?"

"I heard it from the nurses, and I also heard them saying that Mitchell was taking a nap in his room, so I did it. Madam, did I do something wrong?"

Boden looked at Mango a little bashfully.

"No...look, you did very well."

Mango hurriedly praised him.

Nathaniel's men were really talented. If it weren't for him, she probably wouldn't have been able to get away.

Sophia's words surprised Mango once again.

She knew Novalee's identity through Henry. But, she didn't expect Sophia to know everything in such a short time after coming out of the sanatorium.

Walter was shocked too.

"Mom, how did you..."

"How did I know it all so clearly? My son, although I have been in the sanatorium for so many years, I still have my way of finding out something. Your father has left some people to take care of and protect me. It's just that I don't care enough to use them. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have used these people."

The look in Sophia's eyes was complicated as she said them.

Walter was completely stunned.

"How could this be? Wasn't he with Delilah a long time ago? Why would he still...."

As if realizing what he had said, Walter quickly shut his mouth.

Sophia said with a wry smile on her face, "Your father has a way of making me distressed. Anyway, we're not talking about your father now; we're talking about you and Novalee. Son, Novalee is not a good person. I won't let you marry her no matter what. If you still think of me as your mother, you'll listen to me. When she leaves the emergency room later, I'll arrange what's next for her. Don't worry. I won't mistreat her."

"Mom, can you let me deal with this matter by myself?"

Walter really didn't want his mother to intervene in this matter.

No matter what kind of feelings he had for Novalee, he wanted to solve it personally instead of acting like a child and letting his mother do it for him.

Mango rushed in as she watches Sophia and Water were about to argue again.

"Auntie, Walter, I met someone here. I think the most important thing now is not to discuss whether or not Novalee is leaving. But, you have to listen to what I need to say first, and then you will know what to do."

Mango's sudden appearance shocked Sophia for a moment. Something shifted in her eyes, as if she knew what was going on.

"Oh, Mango, you didn't help me after all."

"Auntie, I'm sorry. But, I think that Walter can handle this matter. It's better if you don't intervene in this."

Mango felt a little guilty as she said it.

Walter pulled her over to him.

"What did you apologize for? You didn't do anything wrong. Now, what did you want to say? Who did you meet here?"

Mango was overwhelmed by Walter's questions as she didn't know which to answer first. A trace of regret flashes in Sophia's eyes as she watched Walter holding onto Mango's hands.

How wonderful it would be if they weren't relatives. She would do everything she could to make sure Walter gets what he wanted. Oh, what a shame...

Another sigh erupted in Sophia's heart as she heard Mango said, "I saw Delilah, and I also discovered an important secret."

Suddenly, screams could be heard inside the hospital, as if something terrible had happened.
