The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1199

Brantley's expression changed when he heard Nathaniel's words. On the other hand, Mango looked at Nathaniel in surprise as she felt a hint of killing intent in his voice.

Had that been just her illusion?

On the other hand, Mango didn't dare to say anything as she recalled how Nathaniel treated her not long ago. At that time, Nathaniel had almost gone insane, and now...

At this thought, she frowned and looked at Nathaniel again. His eyes were clear, and he didn't seem to be out of his mind at all.

Meanwhile, Brantley was stunned only for a short moment before he spoke blandly while looking at Nathaniel.

"It was a military operation. You should know that we have to sign a confidentiality agreement, so I can't tell you about it."

"Oh, you're right, you have to sign a confidentiality agreement."

Suddenly, Nathaniel smiled evilly, so Mango was distracted by him for a moment.

Previously, he would never smile like this.

However, if anyone saw his smile now, they would do anything for him as he looked incredibly seductive!

Thus, Mango went up to him immediately and held his arm as she said, "Why did you suddenly ask about Longford County's issues?"

"It's nothing. I brought it up because I just thought about it. Besides, Morgan is currently under investigation, so I'm afraid that he might be related to this."

In fact, Nathaniel's words made sense.

Meanwhile, Brantley glanced at him as he felt that Nathaniel's eyes carried a trace of murderous intent moments ago. However, it seemed that it had disappeared now.

Well, perhaps he had seen that wrongly.

Then, Brantley lightened up his mood and said, "So, where are you guys planning to go? Have you decided?"

"Not yet. I guess we'll just travel somewhere and see where it leads us."

Nathaniel said faintly in a gentle tone. His aura was totally different from the way he asked the question just now.

Meanwhile, Mango was afraid that Nathaniel would be furious again, so she quickly pulled his arm and said, "I've packed some clothes. You should come in and see if there's anything else you want to bring."

Then, Nathaniel looked at Mango with a smile before following Mango into the bedroom without saying anything.

As soon as he entered the bedroom, Mango closed the door and said to Nathaniel coquettishly while looking at him, "You scared me to death just now! Your gaze and attitude plus your questioning tone sounded as if you were going to fight my grandfather..."

"If I went all out to fight with him, what would you do?"

As Nathaniel asked this, he brushed Mango's hair away from her forehead while looking at her tenderly.

At that instant, Mango was slightly stunned.

"Wait! What do you mean? Are you going to attack my grandfather? Nathaniel, what happened to you? I feel that you have changed after Bettany detoxified you! You treated my grandpa so differently compared to before! Are you going to avenge Longford County?"

Mango asked straightforwardly.

At this moment, Nathaniel became stunned.

He knew that Mango was smart, but he didn't expect her to be so sensitive and meticulous. Just now, he couldn't control his emotions for a moment when he questioned Brantley, but Mango had immediately picked that up.

All of a sudden, Nathaniel grabbed hold of the back of Mango's head. Then, he crashed his cold thin lips against Mango's lips in an instant.

Meanwhile, Mango struggled and tried to push him away, but she was too weak. Soon, Mango became wet because of Nathaniel's kisses, and she was carried onto the bed by him unknowingly.

When she came back to her senses, she was already lying in Nathaniel's arms.

Mango frowned while his familiar fragrance and cold aura envelopment him.

"Don't try to distract me from my thoughts with such a method... Hey! Nathaniel, I won't forgive you if you don't give me a reasonable explanation today."

Mango turned around angrily as she spoke.

However, Nathaniel smiled and stretched out his arms once again to hug Mango as he whispered, "You look really seductive when you lose your temper."

"Urgh! You... Get lost!"

Mango gave him a punch with her fist, but it caused Nathaniel to burst into laughter.

After all, he hadn't laughed this happily for quite some time.

At that moment, Mango was stunned.

Nathaniel sensed that Mango was surprised, so he tapped her forehead with his finger and said, "Don't worry about me, alright? I'm fine. It's just that Bettany used the Golden Lancehead Venom to detoxify me, so I'll be violent sometimes as I can't control my temper."

"What?"

Suddenly, Mango sat up in shock.

"Bettany is digging her own grave! How dare she poison you!"

"I would have died if she didn't use the Golden Lancehead Venom."

Then, Nathaniel told Mango everything about the Fire Ant Venom and Longford County.

Mango remained silent for a long time after hearing Nathaniel's words.

How could this be?

They were so cruel!

"What does your mother want? F*ck! She's dead, yet she won't let you go! She just doesn't want you to live a normal life, does she? Other parents will try their best to let their children live a good life, but she's doing the opposite. Even though she's dead, she still plotted against you! Urgh! Nathaniel, I want to go Longford County and dig your up mother's grave so that I can mess her corpse up!"

"Sure, let's do that."

When Nathaniel said that, Nathaniel was so furious that she went silent.

At that moment, a thought flashed across Mango's mind, but it disappeared in the next second. Then, she heard Nathaniel say, "Well, your grandfather wasn't the only one. Kolton and the rest of the Hans family were also involved in this."

After Nathaniel said that, he saw Mango narrowing her eyes, and he knew that she had figured something out.

"All three of our families were involved. Now, Kolton is dead, and the Hans family's second son's whereabouts remain unknown. Also, Aunt Magnolia from the Xiao family was kidnapped when she was still a child. So, I suspect that this series of events are related to Longford County."

Then, Mango grabbed Nathaniel's arm abruptly and asked, "So are you going to Longford County?"

"Yes, I want to go to find the truth, but it's also for Rita's sake."

At that moment, Mango was stunned to hear what Nathaniel had said.

Suddenly, she remembered that Rita was the one who had suggested that they go to Longford County for their holiday.

In fact, Rita had suggested so after returning from the Eaves family. Therefore, the Eaves family were the ones who probably wanted to go to Longford County.

Who was the person who had suggested this? Was it Esther or Bjorn?

What did they want Rita to do in Longford County?

Could it be that Morgan's case had something to do with Longford County?

At that instant, Mango had a headache because of all these questions that she couldn't answer. Thus, she felt confused because all these thoughts were clouding her mind.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel saw how distraught Mango was, so he grabbed hold of her and said in a soft voice, "Don't think about it anymore, alright? The truth will surface when the time comes. Anyhow, you won't be able to figure anything out even if you worry so much about it now. So, let's take it one step at a time."

"What are you going to do then? If all these events are related, we won't be able to go to Longford County safely."

Mango was actually worried about this.

After all, it would be fine if only both her and Nathaniel were going to Longford County. However, her children were tagging along as well.

Thus, she wouldn't know what to do if someone had decided to harm her children!

However, Nathaniel smiled and said, "Who said we are going directly to Longford County?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"We can travel somewhere else first since we didn't have the time to bring our children out for a vacation these years. Now that we have a rare opportunity, why should we mess up our original plan for someone's else plans? Anyway, it doesn't matter if we find out the truth about Longford County as it has nothing to do with our life. The most important thing we have to do right now is to go on holiday! So, we should relax and enjoy nature while travelling around the world with our children. Well, Mrs. Ye, is there any place that you'll like to go?"

Nathaniel looked at Mango affectionately as he asked this, so she could barely stand it.

"I don't know! I'll be happy anywhere as long as you are with me."

At that moment, Nathaniel was stunned to hear what Mango had said.

He recalled everything that Mango had experienced after meeting him. How could she be this happy when she had gone through so many hardships because of him?

However, his silly wife was still willing to stay with him. So how could he let go of her? He needed to love her as much as he could!
