The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 10

"She came on me first."

Zion said with a little grievance. His beautiful eyes looked straight at Mango, which looked very pitiful.

Shen Morong knew that Zion was pretending, but she could not just ignore it. She shook her head and said, "That's because Aunt Blu likes you. But you don't act like a real gentleman, didn't you?"

"Well, I'll apologize to her."

Zion put away his innocent expression, sighed and went out.

Rainie still liked Zion very much. After all, this kid's pleasing look made people wanted to go easy on him. It was not long before Rainie start teasing him again.

Zion had been forbearing Rainie, for Mango's sake. Yet still, he tried to keep a distance with the woman.

The three of them spent a relevantly peaceful night.

When Mango got up the next morning, Zion had already prepared breakfast on the table.

"Good morning, Mom."

Zion threw a big smile at Mango. Although Nathan had never smiled at her like that, his son looked very much like him. Zion, Mango's own angel.

"Hi."

Mango rubbed his head happily. Rainie left her room and saw the breakfast on the table, she was immediately in a joyful mood. " Breakfast! Great! Mango, you are my angel. For one day I can eat before work."

"It was Zion. I just got up like you."

Mango was used to Rainie's dependence, but Zion was not.

"Mom, do I really have to go to Aunt Blu's kindergarten?

A bit of unwillingness.

Rainie sensed that.

"Hey, what's that attitude? You know what I am the ACE teacher of the kindergarten!"

"Yeah, well." A sarcastic reply.

Zion sat at the table, picked up the chopsticks, and dug in.

Rainie rolled her eyes, powerlessly.

Mango couldn't wait to run away from the "battlefield".

"Well guys, need to check-in at the new job today. Off to wash up. Later."

"Mango, ain't gonna say something?"

Before Rainie could finish, Mango "fled" to the bathroom.

After a friendly morning struggle, Zion still went to kindergarten with Rainie, while Mango headed toward Infiniverse Group.

She got married eight years ago and was forced to leave five years ago. As the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ye's Family and Nathan's wife, she had never stepped into the company. Now, she came back with a stranger's face. Could Nathan sleep at night when saw Mango her real name?

Mango slightly lifted her mouth. A trace of hatred slid through her eyes.

She calmed down and walked through the front gate of Infiniverse Group.

"Ma'am, how can I help you?"

The receptionist stopped Mango in a professional manner.

Magnificent. First-class enterprise of the city. After a quick glance at the welcoming hall of the Infiniverse, Mango thought to herself. Flowever, it was uncertain if the Ye Family could still keep "first-class", since her return.

"I'm Katherine, a designer from HJ Group. Mr. Ye is expecting me."

Mango replied with a smile.

The receptionist was even politer, "Welcome, Miss Katherine. Just give a sec, I'll inform his assistant."

"Lovely."

Mango waited at the front desk, when-

A familiar voice came from behind.

"Zhang, Nathan is here yet? Fie skipped breakfast earlier, so I brought it. Don't call him. I'll go straight up."

Macy Cho came strode up, with a thermos bottle in her hands. After five years, Macy looked as charming as before, and her body shape became even more perfect.

Mango glanced at Macy. A trace of anger.

Somehow Macy sensed that and stared at Mango's eyes. Although Mango hid her anger right away, Macy still frowned.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? Don't give me that seductive look. Oh wait, you are not here to seduce Nathan, are you? MY Nathan."

Harsh words came out of Macy, which she regretted right away. For a lady of her status, those words were not proper at all.

Jealousy? Of this bimbo? Macy didn't want to admit.

Somehow Macy felt this woman's beauty very threatening. As a woman herself, Macy almost moved by her appearance and figure, let alone a man.

That was why Macy's "Rival Radar" sounded the alarm in no time.

"Zhang, this lady made me uncomfortable. Can you walk her out? Maybe... call security?"

Mango's reality and Macy's words set the receptionist in a dilemma. Before she could think of a way to explain, Mango laughed.

That smile was so fascinating.

"And Who are you, if I may ask? Are you sure you want me to go? On behalf of Infiniverse Group?"

Mango's words were calm and peaceful. Yet a tiny trace of disdain and irony was obviously shown in her eyes. Macy got this irritating expression clearly and was provoked for sure!
