The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1213

Mango was also startled when she heard the ringtone.

She could recognize all of Nathaniel's ringtones, but she was not familiar with this one.

"What happened? Is there something wrong with Michael?"

Mango couldn't help but ask this when she heard that.

Then, Nathaniel smiled and replied, "It's all right. I've got everything arranged, but yes, it's Michael. I'll go pick up the call, so give me a moment."

"All right."

When Mango heard that Michael was calling Nathaniel, she did not ask further. After all, Mango knew Michael was definitely loyal to Nathaniel.

Then, Nathaniel went out with his phone in his hand.

When Nathaniel left, Mango could finally relax.

She thought that the hot spring there was amazing, and she could feel that the tension of her muscles and joints had been relieved. Thus, she felt extremely comfortable right now.

Soon, Mango fell asleep in the hot spring.

After Nathaniel came out, he instantly answered the call.

"What's the matter?"

Nathaniel's sounded upset.

After all, Michael knew that Nathaniel had brought his family on a trip. However, he still called, which only meant that he had something important to discuss.

When Micheal heard Nathaniel's cold voice, he couldn't tell whether the latter was angry or not. Thus, he just spoke quickly, "There are some men looking for you, and they've search all the places nearby."

Nathaniel paused for a while, and then sneered, "Heh! They really don't know how to give up. Who are these people?"

"Chief Zhang, I don't know who ordered him to look for you as if you were a fugitive. Haha! This reminds me of that time when I was on the wanted list many years ago."

Michael said sarcastically.

Nathaniel's eyes narrowed, and he then said in a low voice, "Alright, I get it. Can you handle it yourself first? If they want to find me, let them do what they want. I'm at the Nove Dragon Pool, so I think they won't be able to find me here." "That's true because they thought you had already

run away. Who would have thought that you were travelling with your wife and children? But just in case, you'd better be more careful. After all, he is not easy to deal with since he has gone through a lot these years."

There was a trace of worry in Michael's voice.

"Yeah, I know what to do."

After hanging up the phone, Nathaniel stared at the scenery outside, and he could not help but sneer.

Why were these people chasing after him? However, he could not answer this question.

Was it because Bettany was from Longford County? Were they making a big fuss out of this because he had come in contact with Bettany before?

After all, he was of high status, and he could even be considered an influential figure. Thus, why were the higher- ups wasting so much effort to look for him? They even made him looked like he was a fugitive!

Furthermore, what had happened to Brantley and the Hans family?

When Nathaniel thought about this, he became worried, so he called Michael again.

"How is Brantley Xiao now?"

"He's trapped in the area, and they cut off all his connections. Ah! They're basically putting him under house arrest..."

Nathaniel's expression changed when he heard Michael's words.

When Nathaniel had ingested the memory poison of Longford County, he started to hate Brantley. Thus, this meant that he did not resent Brantley personally as he was feeling this way because of the poison.

However, Brantley was Mango's grandfather. Furthermore, no one knew exactly why Longford County had been exterminated. Now, even Brantley had even been placed under house arrest. Thus, Nathaniel would not believe it the chief was the one who had ordered everyone to do this.

"What about the Hans family?" Nathaniel asked again.

"Mateo isn't in the country, so there's no news from him. On the other hand, Terrance shut himself in the house recently. There are some people wandering around their house from time to time, and I think they are watching over them."

Nathaniel smiled evilly when he heard what Michael had said.

"These people are really fearless. Are they insane?" "Who knows?"

Michael replied in a sarcastic manner.

Then, Nathaniel said in a low voice, "You send some people to protect the Hans family secretly."

"Got it, Thomas has already arranged it."

"How could you do that? Don't you have Michael with you?"

Nathaniel froze when Carlson mentioned Michael.

After all, he was very surprised to know that Carlson actually knew Michael!

Nathaniel had gotten over his shook as Carlson continued, "Besides, Michael is now the second-in-command of the Heavenly Alliance. As the first-incommand, what are you afraid of? What's more, Silver Fox, the best hacker in the jacket, and now the world's top three hackers are all working for you. So, what is there to be afraid of?"

As more information came out of Carlson, Nathaniel's face became gloomier.

He thought that these were all secrets and that no one knew who Michael and himself were. Thus, he never expected to hear these words coming out of Carlson's mouth.

Hence, Nathaniel was feeling anxious.

Although Carlson and he had always been very close, he felt restless all of a sudden. After all, he felt as if he was in danger.

"What do you mean, Master Mo?" "Don't be nervous, Nathan, you know that Valentina's death was unavoidable. Hence, my father felt guilty his whole life. I believe you know that Valentina was his proudest student, but she died so miserably. But, for the sake of the mission and other members, my father had to give such an order. However, Michael was too stubborn and was too fond of Valentina, so many things happened."

Carlson felt terrible when he was saying this.

Carlson, Michael, and Nathaniel were all from the same batch of cadets, and they were quite close. Thus, they were upset when they heard what Michael had done.

However, Nathaniel did not let down his guard after listening to the story.

"So? What does Michael want?" He continued to ask.

Carlson smiled and answered Nathaniel as the latter had asked so directly, "Nathaniel, you're still the same. Alright, let me put it this way, the old man wanted to make your four men, including Michael, his own. Do you understand what I mean now?"

Nathaniel was completely dumbfounded to hear this.

"Hehl He wants to take Baxter Alliance away from me?" "Don't say it like that! We're just working together! Your family used to work for us, right? But this time, he wants to cooperate with you. Well, we really look up to you as you've made Baxter Alliance so powerful. Baxter Alliance has quite a famous reputation, so we can't do a lot of normal things on our own. Well, there are too many rules to follow. But, if they help us, it will be much easier for us. You don't have to worry, Michael will pay you the price for the deal, but we need to make sure that you can provide us with accurate information and complete our requests as well. Well, I believe that this won't be hard for the Baxter Alliance, right?"

What Carlson said had caught Nathaniel off guard, but the latter replied calmly, "Well, it's not just about me, I need to discuss with the other commanders before giving answer."

"Of course you can, but Nathan, this is a good opportunity. With his help, your people in Baxter Alliance will be safe."

"I know, so I have to go back and discuss with them. But if I don't agree to this, will he allow those b*stards to wipe us all out?"

Nathaniel didn't want to say that, but he had to think about this problem now that he was in such a precarious situation. Even if Carlson was his best friend, he knew that he could make no exceptions.
