Newell was already there when Nathaniel came back from outside. However, he didn't look good. Nathaniel did not say anything either and directly sat down on the corridor's chair.
Those reporters were still waiting.
Nathaniel's low and deep aura made everyone hold their breath.
Kolton heard that Nathaniel had come out but the reporters at the door did not see his figure. Only then, he knew that something had gone beyond his control.
"Pryce, let's pack up and get going."
Kolton had no choice but to leave that place.
Even though he was unsure whether Mango was dead or alive, the way she managed to let the people from R Organization found his research institute already struck fear into Koiton's heart. Now that Nathaniel had appeared again, he knew that he was able to bring Nathaniel in with a single strike because he had caught him off guard. However, it was Nathaniel's territory after all. While Nathaniel was still worrying about Mango, Kolton felt that it was the best time to leave that place.
On the other hand, Pryce was still dissatisfied.
"Dad, why are we leaving now? I have yet to get anything from the Ye family. Besides, the thing we want..."
"The thing will not be gone. I reckoned that even Nathaniel didn't know about it, otherwise he would have taken it out long ago. Now we can't stay here anymore. Pryce, you have to listen to me. I did all these for your sake. If anything happens to you, how can I survive for the rest of my life? Pack up your things, and I'll wait for you at the airport."
After Kolton hung up his mobile, he looked at the door outside.
Bronze and his men were standing outside the door.
Kolton knew that they were capable, but he just smiled contemptuously.
How could it be possible to only walk through the door if he wanted to leave the tech building?
Kolton came to the window and looked at the bustling traffic underneath. That was the 13th floor. It was not easy for him to get down, but if he got down to the 12th floor and took the elevator from there. It might be much easier.
Thinking of this, Kolton professionally opened the window and jumped up.
He jumped from the 13th floor's balcony to the
12th floor. Fortunately, it was an empty room.
Kolton tidied up his clothes before he took the elevator from the 12th floor.
On the other hand, Bronze knew nothing about his plan.
After Pryce hung up his mobile, he was unconvinced as he thought about it.
Anyway, the reason he came back to Ocean City was to replace Nathaniel by obtaining full control of everything here. Now that he just ran away in disgrace without achieving anything, he felt humiliated though.
Pryce was thinking hard about it and decided not to listen to his father's advice. He took a cab to the Ye's Mansion alone.
The security guard at home was slightly stunned and subconsciously stood up when he saw Pryce.
"Hello, Mr. Ye."
"Morning."
Pryce nodded. He walked into the Ye's Mansion directly.
There was only Lucy and Zion in the mansion. When Pryce came back, Zion was just about to go to the bathroom. He was stunned by the appearance of Pryce.
"Mr. Ye? Why are you back? Where's my mommy?"
Pryce was slightly taken aback.
This was his first time meeting Zion. Although he had seen him in the photos, he was kind of excited as he could see him close for the first time.
"I come back to get something."
"I see."
Zion rubbed his eyes and yawned as he entered the bathroom.
Pryce frowned slightly.
Why was Mango's son still managed to sleep soundly at home regardless of the uncertainty of Mango's life? Could it be that Nathaniel didn't tell him?
Pryce was yet to ascertain it. He went to the study on the second floor when he thought about the thing he wanted.
Meanwhile, Zion's drowsy eyes lit up in an instant once he closed the door.
He quickly took out his mobile phone from his cuff and sent Nathaniel a text directly.
"Mr. Ye, where are you?"
Nathaniel happened to hold onto his phone at that time. When he saw Zion's text message, he was slightly stunned. He quickly said, "I'm in the hospital. Your mommy hasn't come out yet."
"So you're in the hospital?"
"What's wrong?"
Nathaniel noticed that Zion's question was somehow strange.
Zion quickly replied, "There is a man who looks exactly like you at home. Don't tell me that he was your identical twin?"
Nathaniel was slightly stupefied.
Pryce?
Wasn't he already dead?
As Mango had taken care of everything, Nathaniel didn't know about his relationship with Pryce. Likewise, he certainly didn't know about the existence of another Pryce as well. Now that after hearing Zion's words, Nathaniel's eyes narrowed slightly and his expression became a little cold.
"Just be careful. I'll send someone back to deal with it."
"Okay."
After Zion hung up his mobile, he placed it back into his cuff again. Then, he yawned and left after he pretended to flush the toilet.
He took a glance upstairs and found that the door of the study was slightly open. Thinking that the study was Nathaniel's important base, he quickly went upstairs.
"Daddy, have you seen my overalls?"
Zion rubbed his eyes, He looked exceptionally tired.
Pryce stopped searching all of a sudden.
He quickly opened the door of the study and saw that Zion was already at the entrance of the study. He felt a sense of relief secretly.
Why was that child so annoying?
"Doctor, how's Mrs.Ye?"
Ned quickly went forward and asked.
Nathaniel hung up his phone when he saw Mango coming out. He quickly walked over.
"How is it going?"
The doctor was slightly nervous, but he still said quickly, "She has lost a lot of blood. Though she has been saved, it takes time for her to recover. For the moment she could not be agitated anymore. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that the baby can be saved the next time."
Nathaniel's face turned ghastly instantly.
"Mango, can you hear me?"
He held Mango's hand tightly.
Mango was so weak that she had fallen asleep. However, when no one saw her, she opened one of her eyes and smiled at Nathaniel.
Nathaniel was slightly stunned and then sighed helplessly.
"Send her to the ward. Do not allow anyone to disturb her rest during this period."
"Yes, sir."
Ned followed the doctor to the ward quickly.
He couldn't help glancing at Newell, only to find that Newell seemed a little dazed as if he was not being himself.
Nathaniel also saw Newell's look and said in a low voice, "You can go back now. Ned will be staying back."
That was the time in which Newell finally reacted. He let out a sound and then nodded.
"Drive safe."
Nathaniel was still worried. So, he reminded him once again.
Newell nodded again and left the hospital.
After Nathaniel sent Mango into the intensive care unit, the reporters outside began to liven up. For a moment, the news of Mango being stabbed by Nanny Zhang's wife once again escalated.
In the ward, after Nathaniel closed the door, he tightly hugged Mango.
"Are you trying to scare me to death?"
In the beginning, he was trembling. Especially when he heard that Mango was being stabbed and her body was stained with blood. He freaked out instantly. Luckily, Newell explained everything to him in time. Otherwise, Nathaniel would have barged into the emergency room.
Now that he saw Mango didn't look good, he was still slightly worried as he asked, "Are you alright? I saw your face..." "That was just makeup. I'm fine. The doctor and I are just putting on an act. Don't worry, I'm healthy though."
To prove that she was fine, Mango lifted the blanket and tried to get off the bed. But Nathaniel carried her up instantly.
"Don't move, let me carry you. You can surprise and scare me at any time. Fortunately, my heart is strong enough."
Mango was held in Nathaniel's arms. Mango realized that her man was really scared out of his wits when she saw him trembling.
"If I don't do this, there's no way to turn over the current situation. Furthermore, if I'm not mistaken, Kolton is probably planning to run away now."
As soon as Mango finished speaking, Nathaniel's phone rang. Looking at the caller display on his phone, Nathaniel frowned slightly.
