Mango was shocked for a moment before a warm and fuzzy feeling filled her heart. "It's a good thing to have a man who has a warm heart even though he may look cold. Won't you consider Thomas?" "Mango! Will you stop bringing him up?" Rainie started to blush, but she feigned annoyance and growled at Mango.? However, Mango just smiled and she didn't say anything else, but Rainie couldn't bear the teasing look?in Mango's eyes. Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. By then, Mango's body was feeling much better.? For the past ten days,?Nathaniel took care of her the most, and he received?some assistance from Rainie. Meanwhile, Thomas was very busy and he spent very little time in the villa. Hence, he and Rainie didn't have the opportunity to talk much.? Since Rainie had been blacklisted by Walter, she spent most of her time inside the villa.? In fact, the villa seemed like a forgotten slice of paradise?and laughter could be heard
"Hahaha!" Mango couldn't help but burst into laughter.? Rainie had heard a lot about Rita, but she hadn't met the little girl formally before. Hence, she always assumed that Rita was gentle and?kind but sickly. Now that Rita shot her in the face with a water blaster the moment they met, Rainie was quite shocked indeed.? Meanwhile, Zion struggled as he said, "Put me down Auntie Blu! My sister is very protective of me." "Let go of my brother!" Rita stepped forward with the water blaster in her hand as she gave Rainie a death glare. Then, Rainie looked back at Mango in dismay, only to become more irritated when she saw her best friend had laugh herself silly.? "Hey, little girl, could we talk about this? Your brother caused me to be abandoned at the cemetery overnight, and that nearly scared me to death. So, I need to sort this out with him." Zion couldn't help but shrink backwards when he heard Rainie's words.? Mango only knew that Wa
Zion was usually very mature for his age, so Mango would sometimes forget that he was just a child. Now that he looked at her with such an anticipatory gaze, she couldn't help but feel somewhat distressed.? Compared to his peers, Zion had endured far too many?hardships.? Then, she reached out and gently caressed Zion's face and muttered, "You've worked so hard, my dear." Then, Zion's eyes suddenly welled up with tears.? He quickly shook his head and smiled, "Not really. I am the eldest son after all, so it's my duty." Those words made Mango's chest constrict.? "Either way, you're my son and it's my duty to care for you. I'm so sorry to have troubled you, Zion. Let Mommy and Daddy take care of everything in the future, you can relax now." In fact, Mango couldn't wait to hold Zion in her arms. Her son had been very sensible ever since he was a child, and her heart ached for him.? Obviously, Zion saw through Mango's intentions and he q
"You'll never have to worry about me ever again, Mom." Mango tightly grasped Mrs. Shen hand as she spoke, and the older woman felt her chest tighten. "All right, you better remember what you said." Both of them chatted for a while longer before Mrs. Shen could fully calm down.? "I heard that the Hans Family had obtained a permit to reinstate your identity, so I'm guessing you'll have the documents within the next few days. You need to be filial to Madam Hans, okay? She's done us great kindness by letting you keep your surname, so please return the favour on our behalf." ?Mrs. Shen's words caused a complicated emotion to arise in Mango's heart.? "I know Mom. I'll handle it." "All right, let's not chat for too long. You're too weak for now, so just rest while I make you something good to eat." "Thank you, mom." Mango felt much more at ease in front of Mrs. Shen.? Although Queena was her biological mother, she barely had any cont
"What's wrong?" Mango's chest suddenly tightened.? Earlier that morning, Nathaniel had gone out to run some errands and he had not returned yet. Did something happen to him? Mango became extremely anxious as soon as she thought of this possibility.? Then, she stood up and walked towards Thomas. However, Thomas looked at Mango and then at Sisi. He whispered, "It's not Mr. Ye, it's..." "Who is it?" Mango breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that it wasn't Nathaniel. However, it must've been someone else in the villa if Thomas was this anxious.? Thomas glanced at Sisi once more before he said, "It's Newell." With a clatter, the keys in Sisi's hand fell to the floor.? "What happened to him?" Sisi's voice was trembling. Meanwhile, Mango's brows were slightly furrowed. Sisi and Newell had just started living a carefree and happy life, so why did something bad happen now? "What the hell happened?" Th
"I need to make a phone call!" Nathaniel could see that Madam Hans wanted to some alone time with Mango, so he hastily made up an excuse.? "Let me know if you need anything, Mango. I'll be right outside." Even though he planned to leave them alone, he still said that to reassure Mango before he went out.? She knew that Nathaniel was worried about her, so she nodded at him.? "I'll be going, Madam Hans." "All right." Then, Madam Hans nodded at Nathaniel. After that, only Mango and Madam Hans were left inside the room and?Mango couldn't help but feel somewhat restrained. Although Madam Hans was her grandmother,?they felt more like strangers. Other than their familial ties, Mango had no idea what else to say.? Then, Madam Hans pulled on Mango's hand and asked Mango to sit by her bedside. Then, she said, "I know that you don't like Andrea very much. Truth be told, I didn't like her either at the start, but she is your mother's daug
However, Andrea suddenly smiled and replied, "Take a guess!" "I'm warning you,?I'll never forgive you?if you hurt Madam Hans despite whatever motive you may have!" "What can you do to me? What can you possibly do when you're under Nathaniel's protection? I heard that he's no longer the CEO of the HY Group, and no one knows your status within the Ye Family. Furthermore, I've managed to win Madam Hans's favour, so what could you do to harm me?" Andrea was being extremely arrogant, and her expression disgusted Mango.? "You'd better watch out." "And what if I don't?" Andrea continued to provoke Mango. Then, Mango narrowed her eyes in response, "Then don't blame me when I decide to teach you a lesson." "Are you going to kill me? Do you even have the guts to do that?" After that, Andrea took a step forward and reached out to push Mango. Mango subconsciously raised her hand to stop her, but Andrea screamed before she fell backwards.?
Her eyes narrowed momentarily, but she left the room quickly.? "Andrea!" Queena called out to Andrea, who was nearby. The younger girl stopped in her tracks, but she refused to make eye contact with Queena.? "What have you said about Mango in front of Madam Hans?" There was a hard edge to Queena's voice as she spoke.? Then, Andrea paused for a second before she replied in an aggrieved tone, "Mom, I didn't say anything. What can I say anyway? This is Ocean City, not the United States. I have no one to back me up here, so what can I possibly do to harm her?" "Is that so?" There was doubt in Queena's voice.? "Of course. I want to stay by your side, so I'll do whatever you ask me to. As for Mango, I don't intend on provoking her." Andrea's reply was very soft.? Meanwhile, Queena felt rather uncomfortable when she looked at Andrea in front of her.?Although she didn't like Andrea very much, both Andrea and Mango were still her
