The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1147

Brantley really couldn't stand the grievances on Mango's face, so he couldn't help but say, "Why don't I give you a suggestion? No matter what Mango wants to do, we'll send Newell there. Then he'll send us a video of his investigation. The Internet is pretty advanced now, so there's no need for you to go and have a look in person, am I right?"

"I think that grandpa's idea is great!"

Walter concurred with the idea straightaway.

Needless to say, Deborah definitely backed Walter up.

It was three against one. Even if Mango had different ideas, she would have lost the argument by a landslide.

"Then am I allowed to inform Newell about this?"

So, Mango had no choice but to go for the second-best option.

"Of course, just let him in."

At this moment, Walter was very agreeable.

Mango glared at him viciously before calling the guard to let Newell in.

When Newell entered the mansion, both Brantley and Walter were there.

"Good day, Mr. Xiao, Mr. Song and Mango."

Newell greeted them one by one as he was pretty well-mannered.

Brantley nodded in reply and said with a smile, "Have a seat."

"Alright, thank you."

Newell took a seat opposite Brantley.

Walter knew Newell, so he didn't say anything. Now, it was time for Brantley to speak.

Meanwhile, Mango looked at Walter. He had firmly refused to let her go out just now, but now he was acting like a modest person. Thus, she could not help but detest him right now.

"Hey, your cousin did this for your own good."

When Deborah saw where Mango was looking, she whispered in a low voice.

"Yeah, I got it. Walter is the most opinionated and awesome man alive."

Mango retorted with sarcasm to vent out her frustration.

However, Deborah said with a smile, "Of course. Isn't my dear Walter talented and good-looking?"

"Blurgh..."

Mango gave an exaggerated reaction by pretending to vomit. However, Deborah wasn't angry at all, so Mango had only managed to only anger herself further instead.

The couple was too sweet and affectionate!

Also, Mango missed Nathaniel already.

She thought to herself with some frustration.

Brantley certainly knew what Walter was planning. This was the Xiao family, and Brantley was the head here. Hence, he was the one that should tell Newell what they were thinking.

He cleared his throat as he stated Walter's and his intentions out loud.

After hearing what Brantley said, Newell understood the current situation clearly.

"You're right, Mr. Xiao. Currently, we're in a critical situation, so it's too dangerous for Mango to go out. It's my fault because I was too careless. Your plan is excellent. I'm going to keep my camera rolling so that Mango can watch the video in realtime. Also, Mango, you can ask me if you have any questions."

Newell was actually quite cooperative.

On the other hand, Mango felt ashamed of herself.

After all, she was the daughter-in-law of the Ye family and Newell's sister-in-law. Therefore, it was pretty embarrassing to be treated like a child.

"Okay then, go ahead."

Right now, Mango had no choice but to chase Newell away as soon as possible.

If he stayed here any longer, no one knew what Walter and Brantley would reveal to Newell.

Come on, she would at least want to retain some of her dignity!

On the other hand, Newell wasn't clueless about social cues. When he heard Mango's words, he naturally understood what she was trying to tell him, so he quickly stood up and excused himself.

Toby also saw Newell off as well.

At this moment, Mango turned her head away in dismay as she refused to look at them.

However, Walter didn't mind at all. He whispered to Deborah, who was beside him, "Didn't you say you wanted to buy some goods for the new year yesterday? Should we go now?"

"Okay!"

Deborah nodded in reply hurriedly with eyes full of affection.

When Mango saw this, she felt extremely jealous.

"Hey, didn't you say that we'd stay in for our safety? What are you doing now?"

"We are not the targets anyway, so why can't we go out?"

Walter's words were harsh and hit too close to home.

Mango pointed at him and stuttered for a long time. In the end, she gave up dejectedly and slouched in the couch.

"Okay, okay. Hurry up and leave! Don't torture me."

Meanwhile, Deborah exclaimed as she said, "Haha! Grandpa, how can she say this? Do you usually torture her a lot when she's here?"

"Deborah Grey!"

Mango felt that Deborah was too annoying right now!

When Deborah saw how frustrated, she instantly burst into unrestrained laughter. Then, Walter took her into his arms and said softly, "Stop irking her. If she whines and complains to Nathaniel later, we won't know what Nathaniel will do to us when we get married."

"Walter Song, you've crossed the line this time!"

Although Mango had said so, she was actually secretly delighted.

After all, she was glad that Walter had finally found his soulmate.

When Mango saw how blissful he was while he was together with Deborah, she was very happy forthem.

Walter smiled as he said, "Haha! You're just like a nagging hag now. Aww... you're jealous of us, right?"

"F*ck off!"

Mango picked up the apple on the tea table directly and threw it at Walter as she swore at him.

Walter caught it single-handedly and said with a smile, "I need another apple. Although it's okay for me to share it with my wife, good things should come in pairs, don't you agree?"

"You're... you're such a shameless b*stard!"

Mango swore and threw another apple over once again.

Meanwhile, Walter caught it again as he said with a smile, "Thanks for the apples!"

After saying that, he took a bite and smacked his lips while saying, "It's so sweet. Taste this, honey. As the saying goes, an apple a day keeps the doctor away, so you should eat more apples as they are healthy."

"Alright!"

Deborah took the apple from him before she took a bite.

"Yum, it's so sweet. It tastes like you."

Walter blushed a shade of red instantly after hearing her words.

Did his wife just seduce him?

Meanwhile, Mango watched as the casanova turned into a shy teenage boy in front of his loved one. Suddenly, her jealousy was over the roof once more.

"Urgh! Toby, just throw them out. I can't bear to watch them anymore!"

The three million dollars were from a foreign international group. He didn't manage to find out the details of the company, but he was sure that Godson didn't win a lottery like what the neighbour had said.

At this moment, Newell finally realized that someone had manipulated him!

Perhaps the problem with his car engine was also a setup. Maybe they took advantage of his frugal habits so that he would come to ask about the car repairs. Then, they installed the time bomb in the car of the Ye family's sometime during the repair.

At the thought of this, Newell felt extremely guilty.

"Mango, it seems that I was negligent. Please scold me!"

Suddenly, Mango felt that Newell was cute because of how serious he was right now.

Mango smiled and replied, "Why would I scold you? It's not like you're the one who did this. Just look into this man named Godson Wang."

"Got it."

After hanging up the video call, Mango was a little frustrated.

Their investigations had only led to an unknown guy. So, who was this person working for?

Was he one of Bernard's men?

Urgh! Bernard was really a pain in the a*s!

Although they had never met before, he had always deceived and targeted Mango, so she was pretty upset with him.

She suddenly remembered that she hadn't received the results of the paternity test of Bernard and Laney.

At the thought of this, she called Lebanon directly.

Lebanon answered the call after a long time.

However, his place was a little noisy.

"What's up?"

Mango asked concernedly.

Lebanon replied in a low voice, "It's fine. I just blew up one of Lexis' information guilds."

Recently, the battle between him and Lexis had grown increasingly heated. It was gradually reaching the point of no return.

When Mango heard this, she was a little perplexed. After all, how could their father, the king of Angolla, remain indifferent in the face of such an intense battle between his two sons? He was too cold!

"Are you safe?"

Mango asked immediately.

Now, she could more or less understand the reason why Lebanon was callous and indifferent.

His birth mother had faked her death and left him since he was young, while his own father had not cared about him at all. It was lucky that he had grown up to be a pretty decent man under such circumstances.

Furthermore, he was still her cousin, so Mango felt that she should show him some concern.

Lebanon smiled before he replied, "I'm fine. Don't worry about me. Did you call to get the paternity test report of Bernard and Laney?"

"Bingo!"

Mango did not say anything redundant and admitted it directly.

"Hang on a second. I'll send you the data. Have a look at it yourself."

"Okay."

Mango nodded in reply.

Lebanon asked all of a sudden, "Is it snowing in Ocean City?"

"It is. It's a light snowfall. What's the matter? Do you want to come over and watch the snow?"

In fact, Mango really hoped that he could come back for the new year celebration. However, he could only do so if he promised to not create any trouble for Brantley.
