What's going on? "Denver told Marquis to take good care of Mango before he left, and now that Mango sent Marquis a message, he took it seriously. " Mango told him everything that had happened and took photos as well. Marquis arrived at the hospital in a flash. "Walter found the nurse and brought her to the ward yet he saw a man standing beside Mango and helping her clean up Nathaniel, so Walter suddenly became anxious. " Who are you! What are you doing here? Who let you in? Mango immediately explained as she noticed that Walter got all worked up. "This is my friend, Marquis Beckett. He is a policeman and I called him here to investigate the case of abuse." Walter's expression immediately darkened. "You've been here only for a few days, and now you're considering him your friend? How can you befriend a stranger so easily? Let me warn you, no one would be so kind-hearted nowadays, so you'd better be careful... Why do you always repeat
"Mango, open the door! Ask that b*tch to come out! D*mn it, I want her to know who I am!" It had been a long time since Walter last threw a fit. He didn't care about controlling his temper as this woman had just ruined his reputation. How dare a short woman like her judge and criticize him when he was way taller than her? He must reproach her! Walter wanted to show her his true colors at this moment! "Mango looked at Novalee in confusion as she gestured, ""What's going on?""" "Haih... Nothing much, he's just a pretty boy and I can defeat him effortlessly, so don't worry about it, Ms. Shen. How disappointing, I thought he was a big shot." Novalee spoke in an indifferent tone but Mango entirely shocked. She could defeat Walter effortlessly? Was that even possible? Walter was a martial arts practitioner after all! What did you do to him? Mango was dying to know what happened. Walter was seldom affected by wom
"Mango rushed out of the ward as she was afraid that Walter might harm Novalee. However, she saw Walter pinning Novalee against the wall." "The two of them differed greatly in height, but the resilience in Novalee's gaze urged others to subdue her, just like a dog owner attempting to tame their fierce dog." "At that moment, Mango felt that Walter and Novalee would make a perfect couple." She halted in her tracks and stood by the door as she looked at their interaction. Novalee became angry as she couldn't push Walter away. Let go of me! Aren't you a tough girl? Didn't you say that I'm a pretty boy and not a man? How about you try pushing me away now? Walter mocked her as he spoke. "Novalee's height was barely at his shoulders, yet she wanted to teach him a lesson? " That was utterly ridiculous. Novalee's face flushed red with anger. Walter was unbelievably wicked and detestable! "Then, she tiptoed and bit Walter'
It was Novalee! Walter had the urge to just turn around and leave the moment he saw Novalee. "At the thought of this, he intended to walk away, but Mango grabbed him in an instant. " Did you hear what I just said? Mango gestured. "Yeah, I did! That fierce b*tch is coming our way and as a gentleman, I don't want to fight nor interact with her. Right, I'll talk to you later." Walter rushed away in a hurry. "Novalee saw Walter's silhouette, and she said disdainfully, ""Ms. Shen, did he bother you again? Why is this pretty boy so thick-skinned?""" The corners of Mango's lips curled up into a smile. It seemed that Novalee would never stop addressing Walter as a "pretty boy". What are you doing here? "Mango felt somewhat upset as she had told Novalee not to address her as Ms. Shen but to call her by her name many times, yet Novalee never listened to her and argued that she ought to follow the company's regulations." "Nov
Novalee? Why is it you? Walter turned around and left sullenly. "Similarly, Novalee heard that Mango would refer her to an expert, but she didn't expect the person to be Walter." That pretty boy? Was Mango kidding? "Yeah, I didn't expect it either! Why is it you? Ms. Shen must have made a mistake as a pretty boy like you would have no capability whatsoever. Something's not right, I'll call Ms. Shen right now as she must have been deceived." Novalee called Mango as she spoke but Mango's phone was switched off. "What a joke! Mango turned off her phone so that they couldn't contact her. Obviously, she wasn't stupid and knew for sure what would happen after they met." "Hmph, if I knew that it was you, I wouldn't have come even if I was paid ten million dollars!" Walter's words angered Novalee. "Ten million dollars? Aren't you thinking too highly of yourself? Who would reward a pretty boy like you ten million dollars? No one would
"There's a car coming from the opposite side, where are you heading?" Walter grasped the armrest tightly. "Yet Novalee said calmly, ""It's all right, my skills are quite good, considering that this is the first time I've driven a car.""" What? This is the first time? You don't have a driver's license? "I haven't taken the driving test yet as it's too expensive, and I want to do it only when the price drops." "Novalee said in a nonchalant manner, but Walter's heart was pounding wildly." Stop the car! Stop! Walter had never been so scared in his life! "He'd entrusted his life to a woman who didn't know how to drive, and she even accelerated the car up to 160km/h!" Walter was going crazy. "On the other hand, Novalee asked without a hint of nervousness at all, ""Where's the brake?""" Walter didn't want to utter another word. He hurriedly squeezed over to the driver's seat and stepped on the brake. "Immediately, t
"Hey, get in the car!" It was impossible for Walter to admit his mistakes to Novalee as he did not feel that he was at fault. "Novalee did not even glance at Walter as she whispered, ""You can go first. I said that I'll go by bus. Don't worry, I won't tell Mr. Shen, and I'll make sure that she knows nothing about this.""" Walter's mouth twitched. He wasn't afraid that she would report this to Mango at all. "Alright, stop messing around and get in the car quickly! It will take days for you to arrive at Clayville if you take the bus, and you'll lose the opportunity by then. Time is money in the business world, do you understand? I'm not doing this for you, but Mango instead. Plus, I promised to do market research for her. Importantly, we'll be at a disadvantage if we proceed at this rate." Walter's words surprised Novalee. Is it that serious? "Are you the teacher or am I? Didn't Mango ask you to learn from me? You should listen to me if tha
Mango was lost in thought after she put down her phone. "She wanted to make Novalee and Walter a couple, but she had never considered the difference between the two of them. Now, she started having doubts about her intentions after hearing what Walter said. " Would her decision negatively affect Novalee? Mango couldn't reveal her true intentions yet as she noticed that both of them didn't have the same idea as her. "She looked at Nathaniel and used the text-to-speech application to ask him, ""Nathan, do you think that what I did is right? Walter has spent so much effort on me, and I really don't want to see him spend the rest of his life alone as everyone should find their own happiness. He clearly knows that we aren't meant to be, but is it right for me to pair him up with someone else? I'm aware that Novalee isn't his type as she grew up in an entirely different environment from us, but still, she's an honest and upright person. Once such a woman falls in love
