The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 13

After leaving Infiniverse Group, Mango quickly bought some ice cubes at a 7-11 store and then touched up a lot of foundation.

Luckily, Zion was at kindergarten with Rainie. Otherwise, when seeing her face, the son would definitely make a fuss.

Sometimes, Mango was very grateful to fate. When she was in her most desperate time, an angel was brought to her. Zion was young, but his love for Mango was good.

At the thought of her son, Mango's face relaxed a lot.

Home. Restroom. Her peaceful corner alone. Mango covered her face with an ice pack. It wasn't the cold that made her squint, but new puzzles in her mind.

Macy Cho did not make Mrs. Ye yet. Why?

Macy did give Nathan a boy, which should impress the Ye Family. Also, Nathan had feelings for her. He even planned to murder his wife for Macy. But why didn't Nathan marry her?

Mango needed more facts before jumping to a conclusion. But first thing first, she had a slap insult to settle with Macy. Revenge is a dish best served cold, Nathan's murder temptation can wait.

Now Nathan wanted to cooperate with H'J Group for sure, he would even force Macy to apologize. At that time, she had no doubt to slap Macy back, even in front of Nathan. After all, Mango was no longer his wife.

Mango died in the fire, five years ago.

Mango could still feel the heat and pain burning on her skin. It was so painful, so heartbreaking and so desperate. She would never forget that feeling even if she entered hell.

And she would not let go of anyone who gave her such pain!

Mango covered half of her face and went to the bedroom. She didn't report to H'J office, instead she just laid in bed and slept quietly.

Thomas quickly found out Shen Mange's address. When seeing the address, Nathan narrowed his eyes again.

The residence of Rainie Blu!

He still remembered that Rainie was Mango's best friend.

This Katherine, did not only have the same name as Mango Shen, but also stayed at her BFF's place. What was the odd?

Or was she actually Mango?

Thinking of this, Nathan unconsciously clenched his hands.

"Background check, Katherine. No matter what it takes. I have to know everything about her, especially about the past five years."

Nathan's words did not surprise Thomas. But he had to lower the boss's expectation. "Sir, the Americans had kept Katherine's identity as a secret. Someone had been probing before, found nothing but dust."

"Then don't use just someone, ask for the professionals."

Now Thomas was a bit surprised.

Thomas knew pretty well about this professional Nathan had referred to, but he didn't for many years. He couldn't help but be curious.

"If I may, sir. What's wrong with this Katherine?"

"You may not."

Don't ask, don't tell. This was the unspoken rule about the Ye family, the first rule Thomas learned.

"Yes boss, right away."

After Thomas left, Nathan lit a cigarette irritably.

He quit smoking for a long time, but today he was in urgent need of a cigarette to ease his agitation.

Now Katherine definitely did not look like Mango, but she did have the same figure and pace, even the same friend. Was this just another coincidence?

But if she was really Mango, why didn't she recognize him? He still remembered how much Mango loved him five years ago.

What happened five years ago?

It was all over the news. Mango was caught in a fire with her lover, and her body was never to be found. Nathan did not believe one word of it. For a woman who loved him so much, how could Nathan not know if she loved another man? But the two bodyguards were missing, and Mango was gone. No one knew what had happened back then.

He still remembered that Mango was pregnant five years ago. That was their child, lost in the fire.

Nathan frowned tightly. The smoke was flickering and soon burned his finger.

He shivered and quickly put out the cigarette, then stared at the burnt on his fingers.

He still remembered how much Mango was afraid of pain. The fire was so fierce that it burned everything around her. How painful would she be at that time?

Not in the mood to work, Nathan grabbed his suit jacket and quickly walked out of the office.

"Sir, I would like to update your schedule."

"Sure. Just one update: no work today."

Nathan rushed out, leaving his secretary surprised.

The first time Mr. Ye skipped work.

Nathan didn't give a damn on others's thoughts to him. He jumped in the car and went straight to Rainie's.

The doorbell rang incessantly.

Mango woke up from her sleep and felt very weak.

She knew it wasn't Rainie since she had a key, and it didn't sound like delivery or anything alike. So who would it be?

Macy Cho?

If it was her, Mango wouldn't make it easy for her.
