The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1227

Mango was very pleased with Polo's smartness.

She said in a low voice, "Aria looks exactly like Michael's dead fiancee."

As soon as she finished speaking, Polo was completely stunned.

No wonder!

No wonder Boss Michael was being benevolent toward that woman!

No wonder Boss Micahel would be stabbed!

It turned out that this was the reason why.

Polo's brows furrowed tightly.

Mango sighed softly and said, "I've heard Nathan say that Aria has not undergone any plastic surgery, so it's very likely that she has some relationship with Valentina. Go and ask someone to investigate Aria's identity and background."

Polo felt slightly uneasy after getting to know about Michael's relationship.

"Even if she looks like his former fiancee, it can't obliterate the fact that she stabbed him and killed Zeck." "Let's put this matter on hold until Michael wakes.

Both Nathan and I hope that Michael will let go of his obsession with Valentina and start a new life again. Check up on Aria's true identity first."

Polo felt increasingly uncomfortable.

"Mango, is Boss Michael able to recover again? He has bled so much and his face was ghastly pale. We're all afraid..."

"Yeah! He'll survive now that Nathan and Noah are here."

Mango smiled. Seeing her smile made Polo calm down.

"I'll make sure the others won't conduct any outrageous things toward Aria during this period. Do rest assure. I believe that Michael will straighten things with us when he recovers later."

"Cool."

Mango nodded and walked toward the door of the room where Aria had been taken into custody.

There were four men guarding the door along with a hunting dog. It seemed that Aria couldn't get out even if she wished to.

Upon seeing the arrival of Mango, those men were stunned for a moment before saying respectfully, "Hi Madam."

"Open the door. Let me go in and have a look."

Mango walked into the room under their gaze.

When Aria heard the sound of the door opening, she subconsciously turned around. However, her eyes were gradually dimmed and became somewhat desperate when she saw Mango.

"Who are you? Are you here to kill me?"

Aria spoke in a mild tone.

Before seeing Aria in person, Mango had often thought that Aria was a temptress. However, the moment she saw Aria, Mango realized that she was mistaken.

Aria had a small face and delicate features. Though her appearance was not really prominent, it was pleasant to one's eyes. She was one of a kind which made the others feel comfortable toward her.

She did not portray any temperament and coldness of a killer. She looked friendly and nice.

Mango walked over and sat beside Aria.

She found that Aria's fingers were tightly clutching her hems, and her knuckles were turning pale.

She was feeling unease.

Was it because that she didn't manage to kill Michael?

Perhaps she was feeling anxious that Michael would die?

Mango could not figure her out and said in a low voice, "Michael may not be able to survive."

"Really?"

Aria's eyes gleamed for a moment.

Although she quickly lowered her head, Mango could still catch a trace of uneasiness and guilt in her flickering eyes.

Guilt?

Did the woman feel guilty toward Michael?

Mango wasn't sure about that. She merely asked in a low voice, "Do you have a grudge against Michael?"

"Nope, he's a complete stranger to me before this."

Aria's remarks made Mango stunned once again.

"Why do you want to kill him then?"

"Can I say that it's due to my foolishness?"

Aria gave a wry smile.

It had been several hours since Michael was carried away to the hospital. The merciless remark of Maverick toward her kept lingering in her mind.

The truth was that Maverick had taken a fancy to her appearance. All his sweet talks and commitment to her were never true.

He was simply manipulating her.

Ironically, it was not until today that she realized that fact.

Aria told Mango in a low voice about the affairs that had happened to her.

She had known that she would not be able to stay alive anymore but she was simply reluctant to accept the truth.

She had fallen in love with the wrong person, who made her lose her virginity and even cost another two human lives.

"Trust me, I didn't kill him! The only person I wanted to kill was Michael. I don't know about your relationship with Michael but I swear that I'm telling the truth. If I lie to you, I'll receive bad karma."

Aria was trying to convince her with an eloquent oath.

Mango could tell the truth from her eyes.

A person's eyes told no lies.

Well, why would Zeck die if Aria said that she didn't kill him?

Mango's brows were tightly knitted together.

"I will investigate this matter thoroughly. Stay here for the time being. As for your punishment, let's wait until Michael wakes up."

After speaking, Mango felt her arm being grabbed at once.

"Didn't you say that Michael will die? Did you mean that he won't die as I'm asked to wait until he wakes up?"

Mango looked at the countenance in Aria's eyes and muttered, "Do you think you can stay alive even if he's not dead? Do you think that staying alive is better? Aria, you're no longer a child. When you tried to kill Michael by trying to please Maverick, you should know about the consequence. You can't risk others' life to please another person, so I can't offer you any help."

After saying that, Mango stood up and walked out of the room.

Mango's words were just like a sobering slap to Aria which struck her.

It was indeed ridiculous and vulnerable the moment when she had instilled with those wrong philosophies and also her desperate persistence towards Maverick.

That was right.

She wasn't supposed to cost others' lives simply to impress another person.

Why couldn't she understand such a simple rationale until now?

Wasn't it too late?

Aria was shedding tears in a remorseful manner.

Standing outside the door, Mango managed to hear her cry. She shook her head subconsciously and said, "Watch her carefully. Don't let her die before Michael wakes up."

"Yes, Mango."

Mango nodded and walked toward where Nathaniel was.

Not to say that she was unsympathetic at all, but she learned from Nathaniel that sympathy was useless sometimes.

When Nathaniel saw Mango walking over to him, he immediately dismissed his subordinates and poured her a glass of hot water.

"How's it? Did you manage to find out something?" "I've received quite a large amount of data and there's a crucial man named Maverick. Aria came to assassinate Michael because of him. Nathan, I suddenly remembered a man when it came to Maverick. I wonder if you know him?"

Mango's words immediately stunned Nathaniel.

"Who's that?"
