Mango got up and walked away when she took the call because there were some things she didn't want to discuss in front of the children. Hence, she wanted to protect them just in case anything went awry.? "What's wrong, Uncle?" Mango nodded towards Madam Ye before she left the ward.? Madam Ye knew who was the caller the moment Mango addressed him as Uncle, but Zion was rather confused.? "Grandma, when did Mommy have an uncle?" "Well, you actually have more relatives than you think you do. They're your mom's relatives, so in turn, they are yours too. I'll take you to visit them when we have the time." Madam Ye didn't really know how to explain the truth to the children as it was far too complicated. Furthermore, Mango didn't really have the time to handle the whole affair properly as well.? After everything was settled, she would definitely bring the kids to meet their relatives.? "Oh, okay." Zion didn't ask any further and he continu
Mr. Shen sighed when he saw that Mango was still unwilling to tell the truth. "Do you like Nathaniel that much? Are you willing to sacrifice both the happiness of you and your children?" "No dad, I'm not facing any problems with the Ye Family. What on Earth have you heard?" Mango felt like this misunderstanding was quite serious indeed.? Just by looking at Nathaniel's disregard for his own life in order to save her, there was no way that she would be living unhappily with the Ye Family. However, Mr. Shen shook his head and said, "Don't lie to me. Although I'm old, I'm not blind. Look at both you and Zion's swollen faces!?I won't believe it when you tell me nothing's wrong! How dare the Ye Family hit you both? They've crossed the line! Since you have ties to the Hans Family,?I'm willing to seek them out for help in this matter. Let's see if they'll get involved when their daughter's been abused!" Mango finally understood what Mr. Shen had meant.? Then
Needless to say, Nathaniel was rather shocked.? "You... " "Be a good boy and stop fussing about!" After Mango kissed Nathaniel, she stroked his head and she smiled as she rose to make him something to eat.? Then, the corner of Nathaniel's mouth twitched. Who did she take him for? Zion? Or Rita? Was she overwhelmed by her maternal instincts? To think that she treated him as if she were comforting a child! Thus, Nathaniel still wanted to say something else but Mango had already left. However, Nathaniel couldn't help but smile as he looked at Mango's retreating figure. The kiss lingered on his forehead, ever so gentle and loving.? Then, he touched his forehead softly as a silly grin spread across his face.? When Thomas entered, he was perplexed when he saw Nathaniel's silly expression. After that, he cleared his throat to let Nathaniel know that he'd arrived.? "Ahem, Mr. Ye." Nathaniel's expression s
"Rainie!" Mango quickly ran over and she saw Rainie huddled in the corner with a glazed-over look in her eyes and she shook like an abandoned child.?? Her gaze was usually very tough,?but now she seemed as fragile as glass.? Then, Mango hugged her tightly but Rainie pushed her away. In fact, it seemed that Rainie had withdrawn into herself so she couldn't feel or hear anything.? Right now, Rainie seemed like a fragile doll as she held back her tears. "Rainie, I'm sorry I'm late! It's me, Mango!" Just as Mango approached Rainie once again, Rainie suddenly opened her mouth and clamped down hard on Mango's arm. "Mrs. Ye!" "Stay away! I'm fine!" Mango stopped Thomas from approaching them as she allowed Rainie to bite her. Meanwhile, Rainie seemed to be venting all of her fear and anxiety in that one bite.? Then, the faint scent of blood wafted into Rainie's mouth and that jarred her back to her senses.? After that, she sudde
During the journey back to the Central Hospital, Thomas considerately put on some slow music that sounded very calming.? Hence, Rainie's mood slowly steadied under the soft beats of the song.? She couldn't help but glance at Thomas?sideways.? Thomas was a very average looking man. His facial features weren't very striking, but he was quite pleasant to look at and he radiated a comforting aura.? Usually, Rainie never really paid attention to him but now she found that Thomas had an exceptional quality about him.? "What's your education background?" Rainie couldn't help but ask.? Meanwhile, Thomas was a little surprised before he replied off-handedly, "I have a double master's degree." "A double Master's? You have such a high qualification, and yet you're working as Nathaniel's assistant? Don't you think that's a waste?" Rainie was just an ordinary college graduate, so a master's degree was an amazing achievement to her. She alw
"How old are you? Ugh, why are you still tripping over yourself?" Nathaniel was so frightened that cold sweat beaded on his forehead.? Could Mango even go a day without scaring him half to death? Fortunately, Nathaniel had a strong heart, if not he reckoned that he'd be dead long ago.? Meanwhile, Mango felt that Nathaniel was particularly handsome right now.? Five years of experience had made him more manly than before, and she couldn't take her eyes off of him.? Then, Mango reached out her arm and she looped it around Nathaniel's neck before she replied in a low voice, "If I didn't do that, would you throw yourself into my embrace?" "Who's doing the embracing now? Mango, you're way too good at twisting facts, I think... mmph...." Before Nathaniel could finish his sentence, Mango stood up on her tiptoes and she kissed Nathaniel gently with her soft lips.? Mango's kiss was overbearing, hot, and even a little impatient. Alas, Nathanie
Nathaniel's brows furrowed as he looked down at his phone and he saw that Terrance was the one who was calling him.? Then, he took a furtive glance at Rita before he answered the call.? "Nathaniel, you should get here as soon as possible. There's something wrong with Nanny Zhang." Terrance's voice was soft, but it made Nathaniel frown.? "I'll be right there." He had planned to go there tomorrow, but he didn't expect that Nanny Zhang would cause problems for them.? Meanwhile, Rita asked in a reluctant tone. "Are you leaving, daddy? Can't you accompany me even when you're injured?" A lump formed in Nathaniel's throat as he heard that.? In truth, he really did want to accompany Rita, but things rarely ever went the way he wanted it to.? "After I've settled all of my things and you've recovered, I'll take you and Zion somewhere fun to play, okay?" "Really? Don't you dare lie to me!" Rita hurriedly extended her pinky towards
"What's that sound?" Mango was rather slow to react, but Queena suddenly stood up. "Your grandmother!" Then, Queena ran quickly towards Madam Hans's room. Meanwhile, Mango was stunned for a moment as she didn't know what was going on. Grandma? She thought about it for a while before she realized that it was Madam Hans. As the thought crossed her mind, Mango quickly followed behind Queena.? "Mom!" Queena's voice sounded from inside the room with a hint of urgency. Thus, Mango's chest tightened involuntarily.? She quickly opened the door and walked inside and found Madam Hans lying on the floor. The corner of her mouth and her right hand kept twitching uncontrollably and?it seemed like Madam Hans had gotten a stroke.? Madam Hans was very old, but her deception previously didn't give Mango a very good impression of her. After that, Mango decided to let it go when she found out Madam Hans only did it for the sake of he
