"Grandma, what else can I give you? How can you accuse me too? I'm doing this for you and you must believe me!"? Andrea said and she wept heavily. However, Terrance refused to listen to her.?Then?he ordered someone beside coldly, "Keep an eye on her. The rest of us should go to the hospital first. Let's talk about it once we have the test results." Madam Hans couldn't bear to see Andrea being treated like that. "Don't tie her up. She is so weak and our bodyguards are around, so she won't be able to run away." "Mom, why are you still defending her? You'd better not say anything now and let's go to the hospital first." Terrance was speechless by Madam Hans's actions, but she was his mother. Madam Hans thought for a while and she shut her mouth. Andrea teared up instantly when she realized the situation. "Grandma, Grandma! I won't hurt you, so you can't let Uncle do this to me. Look, I'm tied up. What should I do when I need to go to t
"You, you're simply..." Madam Hans jabbed her finger angrily in Andrea's direction.? Then Andrea sneered coldly before replying, "What about me? Has this all become very unusual to you? Alas, this is how I truly am! You have no idea how difficult it was for me to pretend to be the perfect granddaughter around you, it nearly drove me insane! You're right, I did drug you. Is that the answer you wanted?" Madam Hans couldn't believe her ears when she heard what Andrea said. "Why? Why did you do this? Was I not good enough to you? I did everything for you, and I even pushed my biological granddaughter away from you. Why did you do this? Don't you know that the Hans Family is a pure and noble family? How could you?" Madam Hans's heart felt as if a thousand knives were piercing through it, but Andrea felt nothing.? Instead, she burst out in maniacal laughter.? "You were a fool. You refused to believe your granddaughter and instead chose to believe an
"Did you kidnap Rita? Where have you taken her?" At this point, anxiety permeated Madam Hans's voice. Mango had lost a child previously in the efforts to obtain the antidote, so Madam Hans didn't want her foolishness to cause Mango to lose another child. If that happened, she reckoned that Mango would most likely go insane, and Madam Hans would never forgive herself if that happened! Andrea looked at how anxious Madam Hans was and she smiled wickedly, "What? Are you getting worried now? Are you finally acknowledging that she's your granddaughter? You're an interesting one, aren't you? You believed everything I said when you trusted me, and you were cruel to Mango. But now you're feeling sorry for her and you want to make it up to her? Do you think Mango will still forgive you?" Madam Hans became embarrassed when she heard what Andrea said.? "Shut up!" "Shut up? You used to love listening to me,?Grandma." On the other hand, Andrea just continued
As expected, the robotic tone asking the caller to leave a message reached her ears. Even so, Mango felt like she'd gone into a trance.? Nathaniel had been on plenty of business trips in the past, and she'd never been this weak without his presence. So, what was happening to her now? Then, Mango put down the landline and she looked over at her mobile phone. She had used the landline to call Nathaniel, but looking at her mobile caused her to think of the Hans family's torrid affairs, which made her irritated.? Ultimately, she decided to just toss her phone far away and Mango snuggled under the covers for more sleep.? Meanwhile, Mrs. Shen was concerned when she saw Mango locking herself up in the room. However, Mr. Shen stopped her when she was about to head upstairs to speak to Mango. "Our daughter is an adult, and she can handle things by herself. Don't add up her worries." "I'm just wondering if Nathan is coming for dinner tonight. I'd like to prepa
Terrance's words gave Rainie a pause.? "What do you mean?" "Wait, isn't Rita still kidnapped? Is there any news of her? Under the circumstances, Nathaniel would never leave Ocean City. I haven't heard anything about the Ye family's businesses that warrant such an urgent response." Rainie frowned deeply when she heard Terrance speak.? "What the hell are you saying?" Meanwhile, Genevieve hurriedly cut in when she saw that Rainie was persistently interrogating Terrance.? "Hey, let's talk about this later okay? Aren't we here to see Mango? I think it's better if we all go inside." Terrance became nervous when Genevieve said that.? "Did something happen to Mango?" "Mr. Hans, you're an uninvited and an unwelcome guest, so I suggest that you don't go inside. Plus, Mango has no desire to see anyone from the Hans family. Mango and I have a pretty good guess why you're here, and the only thing I can tell you is that she's feeling unwell. If y
Then, Genevieve glanced at the medicine in her hand with a deep frown before she extracted it into a syringe. When she turned back to face Mango, the relaxed demeanor was back on her face again.? "You might feel some discomfort later during the injection, so please bear with me." Genevieve emanated a calm and secure sensation to everyone around her, and despite meeting her for the very first time, Mango felt at ease with her presence.? "It's fine, I'm not that fragile." "Yes, Dr. Bay, stick the needle in harder. She already said that she could handle it." Rainie's mischievous words attracted Mango's prompt retaliation.? "Shut up! Are you looking for a beating? No, I'll make sure Thomas doesn't have time to spend with you.?Hmph!" When Mango brought up the subject of Thomas, a faint blush dusted Rainie's cheeks.? "This is an abuse of power. Watch it, or I might ask Thomas to quit and leave your entire household behind." "Ha!?You're mi
Terrance was rendered speechless after he heard what Rainie said.? "Is this what Mango wants?" "Do you think I'd let Mango know that you're outside?" Rainie looked over at Terrance and she sighed before continued, "Mr. Hans, Mango is severely disappointed in the Hans family and the both of you have cut ties with one another. Is there really any more need to fix things? Your mother is old, and perhaps she regrets some of the things she's done, but so what? You've hurt Mango so much, yet do you expect her to just be fine and forgive Madam Hans for everything that happened just because she's about to pass away? Moreover, who caused Mango to end up like this? I'm sure you know very well who did this." "Think about it. Mango used to be a healthy and robust person, but now she's become extremely sickly. Can you understand how painful it is for us to watch her be like this? You always call yourself her uncle, and you claim to want the best for her and that you care for
As if the phone could sense his worries, Nathaniel's phone suddenly rang.? He subconsciously glanced at his phone and it was the Shen family's phone number. Anticipation and fear flooded his heart.? Was Mango calling?? How was he going to answer if she asked where he was? Then Nathaniel quickly retrieved his laptop and he pretended to be busy. He even turned on the recording on his computer before taking a deep breath to answer the call.? "Hello?" There was a slight tremor and a cautious tone to Nathaniel's voice as he spoke.? "Daddy!" Rita's sweet voice rang out, which disappointed Nathaniel a little. Nevertheless, he still laughed before saying, "How are you, honey? Do you miss Daddy?" "Yeah, Mommy told me that you'd gone abroad. Didn't you promise to take us overseas with you? Why did you leave without us? You're going back on your word,?Daddy." Rita sounded like she was complaining as she spoke.? Then Nathaniel teare
