The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 59

"Nominal?"

Thinking carefully back on those three years of marriage, other than staying at home, Mango hadn't seemed to have gone anywhere, letting alone get involved into his life and career. In fact, she hadn't been to Infiniverse Group for even once. At the time of the marriage, everyone knew that he, Nathaniel Ye, had married a woman, who used some special methods to gain her status. He didn't even think of justifying for her. During the three years of marriage, it seemed both to him and to the outside world, that Mango was really a nominal Mrs. Ye in this family.

The wedding at that time was extremely simple, and Mango had married into Ye Family in such an awkward manner. Because of this, his mother, Madam Ye, got so angry that she moved to live overseas. She hadn't come back for three years, and in addition, Mango wasn't able to get pregnant for three years, so Madam Ye disliked her even more.

Now that he thought about it, Mango didn't seem to get anything from this marriage other than him. The incident back then had caused Shen to remove Mango from the family and further severed all of her ties with her family. She had married into the Ye Family without hesitation and looking back, what did she get from it?

Nathaniel couldn't speak for a while.

He had always felt that he had treated Mango quite nicely. Although she wasn't the woman he wanted, after that incident, he married her and made her Mrs. Ye. Furthermore, he had always been loyal to her after the marriage. Other than her, he didn't have any other women. He thought that this was the biggest blessing to Mango, but now when he saw Mango, who was completely different from before, Nathaniel knew that he was wrong.

Maybe the reason why Mango had become like this today, and the reason why he got separated from his son for five years was all because of him! Now that he met Mango's questioning eyes, Nathaniel said in a low voice, "Yes. In the past, I was the one who failed her, I put too much on her and caused too much loss to her. But I didn't know anything, and I even took her love for granted. I gave her too little, not even a proper wedding ceremony, much less taking the wedding photos. If God could give me another chance, I would definitely treat her well, many times better. I would make up everything that I owed to her from the past. Only now do I realize that this family is no longer my home without her."

Mango's heart suddenly felt sad.

She would have never believed that Nathaniel would say these words before, but now she suddenly felt very upset when she heard these words.

She turned her head away and said with a sneer, "Mr. Ye seems to have said to the wrong person. You should have said these words to your wife, not me. You kept saying that you would treat her well, but now you are allowing me, a strange woman, to live in your bedroom. Is this what you mean by treating your wife well?" Nathaniel didn't miss Mango's mocking tone, but he didn't care. To him, as long as Mango was back, everything would be fine.

"First, get used to this place. I'll go out and ask Auntie Zhang to make you some food. From now on, you'll live here."

After saying that, Nathaniel turned around and went out.

Mango's face sank the moment he left the room.

Flad Nathaniel also learnt to play dumb with her now?

Fie knew it clearly who she was, but he didn't point it out. Fie even said something very ambiguous. Did he think that the silly Mango who had loved him in the past had come back?

It was ridiculous!

She stood up with one leg and opened the closet. All she saw were the clothes she liked, which had all been nicely ironed and hung up there. It was obvious that the servants had been very carefully maintaining all of these. But for Mango now, all this was the sign of her shameful stupidity before!

Mango closed the wardrobe and felt that the air here was particularly oppressive.

She had lived here for three years and slept in this bed for three years. She could even remember Nathaniel's extremely brutal punishment to her in this bed on her wedding night.

Scenes of the past flashed in her mind. She suddenly found that those memories only made her feel depressed. For whatever reason, Mango pulled down the curtains that she used to love the most. She also pulled down the blanket and the bedsheets, then threw them onto the floor.

"Auntie Zhang! Auntie Zhang!"

Mango shouted loudly.

Auntie Zhang didn't like Mango in the first place. If Nathaniel hadn't stopped her, she would have asked Nathaniel to chase Mango out no matter what. Now that she heard Mango's loud shout, her disgust was instantly shown on her face.

Nathaniel looked at her expression and said to Auntie Zhang, "No matter what she does, you are not allowed to make things difficult for her. You need to treat her like Mrs. Ye, do you understand?"

"Why are you doing this for, sir?"

Auntie Zhang asked in confusion.

Nathaniel looked up thoughtfully and said in a low voice, "You will understand one day. In addition, find someone to clean up a room. I will find a designer and turn it into a kid's room."

"A kid's room? Is she pregnant?"

Auntie Zhang was so sensitive that all her hair stood on end.

"I can't be!"

Not only did this woman move in openly, but she was also pregnant with the child of Ye Family?"

Auntie Zhang's surprised expression finally pleased Nathaniel.

If Nathaniel had feelings for Macy, he had been indifferent to Macy for the past five years. Even if he gave her the best life, he did not give her the title she deserved, only allowing her to live in Ye Family in the grey area.

A few times in the dead of the night, Auntie Zhang saw Nathaniel drinking wine while looking at the photo of Mango, with deep affection in his eyes, which made people's heart ache.

Seeing Nathaniel's expression at this time again, Auntie Zhang suddenly felt a little sore in her nose.

"Sir, you..."

Nathaniel quickly returned to his senses. He put the photo back in the wallet and asked in a low voice, "What did you say just now? What's wrong with Katherine?"

Hearing this question, Auntie Zhang's anger was provoked again.

"Sir, where did you find such a woman? She doesn't deserve to live in Ye family at all!"

Auntie Zhang repeated what had happened just now, but she still couldn't calm down her anger.

Nathaniel narrowed squited his eyes slightly and said in a low voice, "Throw away everything from the past? Does that also include me?"

"What are you talking about, sir?"

Auntie Zhang didn't understand, but seeing Nathaniel's sad look at the moment, she inexplicably felt a little distressed.

"Sir, the old lady called back and said that she's not feeling well recently. Have you been overseas to visit her?"

Auntie Zhang hoped to use the old Madam Ye to send Nathaniel away. In this way, no matter what background Katherine had, she would still show her that there was no other hostess in the family except Mango, unless that hostess loved Mr. Ye with all her heart. But she could see that Katherine didn't love Nathaniel at all!

Nathaniel's body paused slightly and said with a wry smile, "Is my mother trying to play another trick by arranging a blind date overseas for me again? She is in good health. By the way, Aunt Zhang, no matter what Katherine wants to do, you just listen to her. If she said that she wanted to decorate the bedroom into a wedding room, just do it according to her words. As for cosmetics, you go and ask what she likes, and I'll let someone buy the new ones. Also, put away all the clothes from Mrs. Ye in the closet, and I'll ask Thomas to send some of the latest clothes to here." Nathaniel said impatiently, and a touch of tenderness flashed in his eyes, which made Auntie Zhang open her mouth in surprise.

Was this really that affectionate Mr. Ye?
