The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 32

Everyone in Infiniverse Group panicked because of Catherine's car accident. There were even reporters who wanted to squeeze some gossips from the employees. The scene was somewhat chaotic.

Zion looked around his hideout. It was with plain simple white walls, but with a tall ceiling. The wooden desk seemed to be priceless.

He jumped onto the office chair and turned on the computer. Only then did he realize that this was Nathan's office.

Sure enough, God was helping him.

Nathan's office was different from others. His computer was equipped with a power password. Zion frowned and looked at it. He tapped on the keyboard with his pair of flexible little hands. A series of special codes appeared on the screen and soon into loading processing bars. The genius kid soon cracked the system, type in the power password. The computer was unlocked in a few seconds. But this password seemed to be a meaningful series of numbers, which caught Zion's attention.

How could it be possible?

Although he thought the process was so smooth, he still rebooted the computer, entered the password, and soon logged in. One could not tell what the expression on his face. He then opened Nathaniel's confidential documents and copied the core secrets of Infiniverse Group.

With limited time, Zion couldn't figure out the importance of the documents. But there was a document marked with red notes by Nathan, which should be a special one.

With this thought, Zion opened this document and a series of data showed up. He couldn't understand, but he still took these data and released it on the business dark web.

For a short moment, with the help from anonymous users, the business secrets of Infiniverse was released and spread in Ocean City.

After finishing all this, Zion jumped off the office chair, wiped his traces, and swaggered out of Nathan's office.

This was a small lesson for Nathan. If something bad happened to his mom, he would continue to make Nathan regret it. He must protect his mother and never let her suffer any harm again.

With a firm look, Zion walked down the stairs and returned to kindergarten, before anyone noticed his absence.

While Nathan was waiting anxiously at the door of the operating room in the hospital, Thomas ran over in a hurry.

"Master Ye, we are in deep trouble. Something happened... it was really bad. The info of our next week's bidding was completely leaked!"

"What?"

Nathan's face instantly changed.

The company had been preparing for this bidding project for a year, with all kinds of resources and connections to get the bidding opportunity. Everyone in his team had spent several whole nights to get the bidding data. How could it suddenly be exposed?

"Did you backtrace the source?"

Nathan looked a bit upset and pale, but he didn't seem to care much about the loss. He remained to stare at the red light at the operating room, without moving his head. After all, the person inside was he cares about most.

If it were at ordinary times, he would have rushed back to the company at once. But now the person in the operating room was Katherine, who had a high possibility to be his wife, that was lost five years ago. He wouldn't leave no matter what, even at the end of the world.

Thomas followed Nathan's gaze to look at the operating room. Although he was surprised at Nathan's concern and nervousness for Katherine, he still said in a low voice, "The technical department found out that the data that leaked was sent out from your office, and the IP address checked with their speculation. Yet, the secretary said no one entered your office."

"So it's a ghost. A ghost in my office, in broad daylight. Is that what you are trying to tell me? Urge the IT to pin the leak. If they fail, don't bother coming back."

Nathan sounded calm, but his words were firm. Other things were going on in his mind.

The car was designed and maintained by himself. Why did it happen to Mango?

"By the way, have you checked the car?"

"I've already sent someone to check, but the car was burnt down, together with the most evidence. So we don't have many useful clues left. But the car was sent to be maintained and checked a few days ago. The crash... the accident should not happen."

Thomas was also confused.

No one dared to mess with Nathan's design. Moreover, everyone knew that Nathan liked this car. There were people checking the safety of the car every day. How could such an accident happen? Besides, the driver, Katherine, would not have to risk her own life to crash the car.

Thomas couldn't figure it out. Forced by Nathan's cold and angry inquiry, he felt like an ant in a heating pan, but he had to reply, "Master, we've also received the news from the United States's H'J Group. President Tang may arrive in the afternoon or evening."

Nathan frowned again.

"First, deal with the bidding portfolio, make a new one, you have tonight. Then, find out everything about the leak, together with the firewall breach a few days ago. I want a detailed report, ASAP."

"Aye, sir."

Thomas quickly ran away because he couldn't bear Nathan's cold anger.

Nathan, on the other hand, looked at the operating room anxiously.

First the video scandal, then a firewall breach, now the leak of confidential info, plus Katherine's accident in his own design. All these happened at the same time. Was someone behind these? Which competitor set him up?

Usually, it wouldn't take long for him to solve the puzzle, and he probably would enjoy the process and the following revenge. But now, his entire mind was on Katherine, the only woman he cared about at the moment.

As time went by, Nathan became more and more nervous.

He wandered back and forth, losing his calmness as a superior.

After more than two hours, the light went off in the operating room finally.

Nathan quickly ran forward, when the doctor came out.

"How is she?"

Nathan did not notice that his voice was trembling.

The doctor knew Nathan, and everyone in Ocean City knew what kind of person he was. Now that he cared about the female patient so much, the doctor naturally did not dare to neglect her.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ye, she will be fine. I mean this lady was seriously injured for sure: one fracture on her right leg, several scratches on the head, and torso. But after the treatment, there is no life-threatening. All she needs is to rest for a while. Her wounds will heal, in time, but now I'm leaving her in observation for one night. If everything is normal tomorrow, she will recover soon." The doctor replied with ensuring sound and respect.

Nathan, a mistrustful person, was not convinced.

"There is so much blood, how can there be only one fracture? Have you checked thoroughly? Did you miss anything?"

Nathan grabbed the doctor's arm tightly, which made the doctor nervous.

"Mr. Ye, the blood on this lady's body was from one wound on her forehead. She is a good driver. At the crucial moment, she avoided the most serious impact and minimize the damage. It seems scary, but the actual damage was not as much. We have checked and double-checked, carefully. Except for the leg fracture, the rest injuries are just scratches. The wound on her forehead will not leave a scar. We have been strictly treated. I guarantee, Mr. Ye, you can rest assured."

After the doctor's words, Nathan was finally relieved.

He saw Mango being pushed out. Her little face, which was originally lively and shining, was now as pale as paper. He only felt that a pair of invisible hands chocking his neck tightly and gradually tightened.

"Give her the best ICU room and I'll send some for special care."

"No need, Ye. Let me take it from here."

Rainie had been here for a long time, but she didn't come forward to stop Nathan. She saw that Nathan was worried about Mango, but she didn't appreciate it. Mango now had a new face and a new identity as Katherine, which to Nathan, was just a stranger.

He could actually be so concerned for a stranger, but five years ago, he treated his wife Mango, so cruelly. The more Rainie looked at him, the angrier she became. Now, when she heard Nathan wanted special care for Mango, Rainie quickly stood up and went straight in between Nathan and Mango.

"You are a busy man. Definitely not going to stay here forever, not even mention taking care of her personally. As for the special care, forget about it. Katherine does not need the so-called care from strangers."

Rainie's look and words were full of hostility.

Nathan watched as Rainie protected Katherine behind her like a little chick. He could not help but recall how the same woman had defended his wife Mango a few years ago.

Now that Rainie treated Katherine like this, except for that strange face, the rest seemed to be exactly the same as when Mango was there. He really couldn't tell himself that it was all a coincidence.

Nathan gave Rainie an undefined look and said faintly, "Okay, if you want to take care of her, I will pay you according to the price of the special care."

"I don't want your money. I am not your servant. Katherine needs to rest. Mr. Ye, please go back and take those reporters with you."

Rainie trembled with anger.

He was still the same old Nathaniel Ye, manipulating people with money and power, suppressing and humiliating people around him. Such an arrogant person with an illusion of superiority, how could Mango live with him for so long?

Nathan was not affected by Rainie's insult. He looked at Mango, who was still in a coma and said in a low voice, "Get out of here if you don't want money. I will ask the best personal nurse to take care of her. After all, she is the designer we hired from the US. Now, this matter is not up to you, a kindergarten teacher, to intervene in my business."

"You..."

Rainie was so angry, but Nathan ignored her and turned away. His tall and straight figure was full of confidence and power, which did not look like the same person who sent Mango here, in panic, not long ago.

"You jerk."

Rainie cursed bitterly and pushed Mango's bed into the room.

Nathan was indeed capable. As soon as he left, he took away all the irrelevant people from the hospital.

Looking at Mango, who was still lying in a coma, Rainie felt distressed.

At this moment, her phone rang. It was Zion.

Only then did Rainie remember the little brat.

"Zion, your mom is fine. She just got out of the operating room, but she hasn't woken up yet. When your mommy wakes up, I will pick you up, okay?"

"Okay. Please take care of my mom." Words from a kid at such a young age made Rainie feel particularly comfortable.

"It's okay. I'm here. I promise to take good care of your mommy."

Zion hung up the phone, but there was no smile on his face.

How could this accident happen to mom all of a sudden?

Zion knew about her driving skills. He did not believe that this was an accident.

Zion returned to kindergarten, found his laptop. He was going to log on to the computer to find his godfather, Abyss Tang, when he suddenly found that his account was being tracked.

His eyes narrowed instantly.

"Nathan has locked on to my account so quickly?"

How could it be possible?

He eliminated all traces, didn't he?

Zion's face suddenly became dignified. His little hands quickly tapped on the keyboard, only to find that the other party's tracking system was like a shadow.

He suddenly felt a sense of crisis, and a layer of cold sweat instantly appeared on his forehead.
