Mango seemed to realize something as she looked into Madam Ye's eyes. Thus, the old lady smiled in relief as she realized that her daughter-in-law was a very intelligent woman. She patted the back of Mango's hand and she said softly, "This is an item that symbolizes the matriarch of the Ye Family. Make sure to keep it safe. Many people have sworn loyalty to it." "Many people? Like who...?" "You are kind of impatient, girl." With that, Madam Ye sighed softly and she handed the brocade box to Mango. After that, Mango opened it and she saw that it was an old ring. The totem on it seemed to have another interpretation, it radiated with both humility and a sense of nobility. "This ring is half of a pair. The one you have is for the madam and Nathan has the other ring. It belongs to the head of the Ye family, but he has never worn it. The reason why I didn't give it to you five years ago is that I had no idea how long you and Nathan would last. Even then,
"Mom, I still don't quite understand, I..." "You can look for answers later and discover it if you don't understand now. I can only say this much. As for how far the Ye family can go, it's up to you and Nathaniel. I feel so relieved after passing this heavy burden onto you. Even though I don't know how long I have left, I'll just focus on being a grandma and I'll take care of Rita and Wisdom."? The old lady smiled teasingly.? Right then, Mango knew that she did not want to discuss it further. Although she had not spent a lot of time with Madam Ye, Mango knew that madam Ye was a person who had a plan for everything.? Up until now, Mango had thought that Madam Ye did not like Zion and didn't accept him. Ever since they showed up at Ocean City until Zion's disappearance, Madam Ye had never paid any attention to Zion at all. Furthermore, she did not even mention his name.? Because of this, Mango had once hated her, and she felt particularly distressed ab
Truthfully, Mango was not surprised at all that Nanny Zhang would do that. The Ye Family had a great business. Thus, Nanny Zhang was not a fool. Once she knew that Madam Ye could not give birth, she would have an opportunity to get close to the head of the Ye Family. If she could successfully seduce the head of the family, maybe she could replace Madam Ye as the mistress or madam of the Ye family. Previously, Mango hadn't thought much about Nanny Zhang. However, after this series of events, she felt that Nanny Zhang was indeed a scheming person and she was being a hypocrite. Then, Madam Ye calmed down and she said, "Your father-in-law was afraid that I would be hurt again if I found out, so he kept it a secret from me. Then, he started to distance himself from Nanny Zhang and he even proposed to change surrogates. Initially, I did not understand what was going on. I stupidly thought he was not happy with my arrangement and that he had someone else on the outside
After Nathaniel and Mango finished their tickle fight, the two of them laid quietly on the bed, enjoying the moment of peace. In fact, Mango knew that Nathaniel was actually in a bad mood. Anyone who found out that the mother they had known for close to thirty years was not their real mother would be in a foul mood. However, Mango did not know how to approach the subject.? In the end, Nathaniel sighed softly and he said, "I didn't expect Nanny Zhang to be my biological mother. No wonder mum always protects her and she wouldn't allow me to hurt her. That's why." "Do you blame her?" Mango did not know what Nathaniel was thinking at the time, so she asked him carefully. Nathaniel smiled bitterly and he said, "Blame her for what? For being too nice to me or for hiding the truth from me? To be honest, I used to think that my mother was strict and she was always very busy. I actually knew that it wasn't easy for the Ye Family to rely on my mother alone to suppor
"Ah!" Wisdom shrieked in alarm and Mango quickly held him steadily. Now that he was upright, Wisdom hugged her unconsciously and the mud dirtied Mango's clothes even further.? As he saw this, Nathaniel shook his head in irritation and he asked, "Do I look like I'll eat you up?" "Urm...No..." Wisdom answered in a low voice. Thus, Mango felt distressed to see him like this. "Well Nathaniel, your face is serious enough to scare a child. Wisdom, tell mommy, what are you doing here?" Mango glared at Nathaniel playfully before she asked Wisdom softly. Thus, Wisdom replied softly, "Rita said that she likes butterflies, but then she can't be under the sun. She always sees butterflies flying around the window. So, I just wanted to catch a few butterflies and give them to her. Maybe then she would hurt less." Mango and Nathaniel both felt like crying as they heard Wisdom's innocent voice, even Nathaniel's eyes were also slightly moist.
Nathaniel could not hold himself any longer as he saw Mango's shyness.? Soon, he lowered his head and he bit down hard on Mango's earlobe. "Ah! It hurts!" In truth, it was not just pain, but it was also a numb feeling that made Mango unable to refuse him, but she knew that it was too bold to do it here. What if someone passed by? Wouldn't she just be ashamed then? Mango pushed Nathaniel with a gentle and soft hand and she said, "Why are you being like this? I just came here to see you."? "I thought you came to give me something to eat." Nathaniel's voice was husky and he did not show any signs of retreat. Thus, this forced Mango into a corner.? Behind her was the kitchen island, and in front of her was Nathaniel. Right then, he stared at Mango eagerly, which made her heart race and she felt shy. "Nonsense. I just...uhm..." Before Mango could finish her words, Nathaniel kissed her hard again. This time, she did not speak
Next, Mango told Nathaniel about the Dark Night Empire. Naturally, Nathaniel was shocked. "Huh? Are you saying that Nick is still alive? I still have my uncle, my father's twin brother?" He never thought that the Ye Family had such a complicated background. Hence, Mango nodded and she said, "That's what mom said. Plus, the ring that I have received from her symbolized that she has handed the Dark Night Empire over to me. What's more, she told me that Zion was taken away by Nick."? "Nick took him away?" Nathaniel felt confused. "Did Mom do this to protect Zion? Or was it for some other purpose?" Nathaniel thought to himself.? Then, Mango sighed softly and she told Nathaniel about the fact that Zion had been chosen to be the heir of the Dark Night Empire.? Nathaniel replied in a low voice, "No wonder I can't find any information about Zion anywhere. It's clear to me now why mom was so indifferent towards Zion while she was so concerne
"Thank you, mom!" Mango thought that Madam Ye knew her very well. "Be careful with Abyss. He's a powerful man in the United States. Don't mess with him for the time being." The old lady did not avoid mentioning Abyss in front of Mango at all. Perhaps she already knew about their relationship.? After that, Mango nodded and she went back to the ward. Thomas had already prepared Mango's clothes for her, and she changed out of her hospital gown.? As she changed, she realized that she had indeed lost a lot of weight. Hence, her old clothes were all too big for her.? Thus, Mango sighed softly and she tied up her hair. Then, she left the hospital in casual clothing.? Next, Thomas drove the car himself and took Mango?to the Fallen Paradise. When she arrived at this place again, Mango's emotions were different this time as she stepped into the club. Before this, she was here as a slave to be sold. Now, she had a different identit
