Chapter 324


    At first, Nathaniel was preupied with soothing Mango, but since she had acted this way, he


    couldn''t help but sigh and let her vent out her frustrations.


    Furthermore, the doctor already said that she shouldn''t bottle up her emotions.


    After Mango cried for a considerable amount of time, she finally stopped.


    Her shoulders were still shaking and her nose was red. Hence, this distressed Nathaniel greatly.


    Then, he grabbed a tissue and gingerly wiped away her tears as he gently spoke. "Since Nick has


    returned, I''ve decided to hand over thepany to him. After you get better, I''m going to take our


    family on a long vacation overseas. We''ll leave everything here behind us and live the life we''ve


    always dreamed of, okay?"


    Truth be told, Mango was rather shocked by that statement.


    "Can we do that?"


    "Of course we can. Nick is a very capable man, and he can handle both the HY Group and the Dark


    Night Empire just fine. Furthermore, he has Mom there to help him, so everything will be okay. It''s


    been years, yet Rita hasn''t had the opportunity to travel yet, so how about we take them on a trip to


    see the world? At the same time, we can finally rx for once. How does that sound?"


    Nathaniel''s proposal was very tempting.


    To be honest, it was what Mango had wanted all along.


    When she first married Nathaniel, she always looked forward to the times when Nathaniel would


    take her sight- seeing during his business trips. Now that Nathaniel had officially handed over his


    duties to Nick, Mango was extremely delighted.


    "Okay, as you wish!"


    "Okay then, but you have to focus on your recovery first. Minister Xiao dropped by earlier, but she


    went home to make some food for you since you were still unconscious. You should eat something


    regardless of whether you have an appetite. I know that you''re in a horrible mood, but you need to


    get better for the sake of our family, okay?"


    Nathaniel reached out and tucked an errant lock of hair behind Mango''s ear with a tender look in his


    eyes. At that moment, Mango felt quite overwhelmed by the overwhelming love in his gaze.


    How could she not look forward to a life of having no responsibilities, except for travelling around


    the world with Nathaniel?


    She knew that he was doing all of this for her, so she could leave her sadness behind and forget


    about her poor child.


    Nathaniel had held back his own sadness tofort her, so how could she continue to be


    dejected?


    That hapless child belonged to Nathaniel too!


    "Let''s do whatever you want!"


    Right now, Mango was being extremely obedient, but this made Nathaniel even more distressed


    than before.


    After that, he helped her lie back down onto the bed before he whispered, "I think it''s best if you nap


    for a while. You''re exhausted and you need all the rest you can get. I''ll wake you up to eat once


    Minister Xiaoes back."


    "Are you going to leave me?"


    Mango felt strangely insecure.


    In truth, plenty of women acted like this after a miscarriage and all they desired was their husband''s


    company.


    Hence, Nathaniel shook his said and said, "I''m not going anywhere. I''ll stay right here with you."


    "Okay then."


    Mango ced her hand in Nathaniel''s and she let him hold it before she closed her eyes.


    In the end, exhaustion won over and Mango was fast asleep within minutes.


    Meanwhile. Nathaniel kept his promise to watch over her and he guarded her closely.


    Later in the evening, Queena came by with Terrance to deliver Mango''s food.


    Terrance was very worried about Mango, but he subconsciously suppressed his feelings the


    moment he saw Nathaniel taking care of her. In fact, he was afraid that the squeaking of his


    wheelchair would wake her up.


    "Let''s have a word outside."


    Terrance spoke in a very soft voice.


    Then, Nathaniel nced at Queena before he entrusted Mango to her. After that, he stood up and


    left.


    After they left the ward, both of them stood next to arge window in the middle of the corridor.


    Terrance lit a cigarette and handed it to Nathaniel.


    Nathaniel nced at it before he shook his head and said, "I''m going to have to decline. Mango''s


    unwell, and I don''t want her to smell cigarette smoke on me."


    Thus, Terrance put out the cigarette immediately after he heard Nathaniel''s words.


    "Is Mango doing all right?"


    In truth, Terrance was much more concerned about Mango than anyone else. Because of his


    feelings towards Mango, he wanted nothing more than to murder Nanny Zhang at that moment.


    Then, Nathaniel nodded as he replied, "Her mood has stabilised a lot, but she still needs to rest. I''ve


    already told her that I''d take our family for a vacation after she''s recovered. I think it''ll do us a lot of


    good if we left this depressing ce behind."


    Terrance''s hand paused slightly.


    "Travelling?"


    "Yeah, she''s gone through so much as the Ye Family has piled more than her fair share of


    responsibilities on her shoulders. She''s so fragile and unprepared, yet she foolishly went for it


    because she loves me. She had no idea howplicated my family is, nor how much hardships


    she would have to endure. We married eight years ago, but we didn''t even have a honeymoon or


    any sort of blissful life a normal married couple should have. Instead, she was the only one putting


    in the effort throughout the first three years of marriage and she nearly died in a huge fire after that.


    From the moment she came back from the United States, she never had the life she dreamed of.


    How many years do we have left anyway? If you think about it, I have given Mango absolutely


    nothing throughout the eight years we''ve been together except for a pair of children that she raised.


    That''s why I want to take her overseas. In fact, I''d do anything to make her happy."


    Nathaniel spoke in a steady tone, but it rendered Terrance speechless.


    "How long will you be away?"


    "I don''t know. Maybe a year or two, perhaps even longer."


    Then, Nathaniel looked out into the distance and he suddenly realised something. Over the past few


    years, it seemed like he had never actually stopped to appreciate the view because he was too


    busy working for his family and the HY Group.


    Regardless of whether it was a business trip, he was always in a hurry because he was alone.


    Thus, he never took the time to stop and smell the flowers, so to speak.


    Now that he knew that Mango and his children would be with him for the rest of his life, everything


    else seemed unimportant.


    Meanwhile, Terrance thought on it for a moment before he said, "If so, then we have to hasten the


    process of reestablishing Mango''s identity."


    "Isn''t it in progress? I thought you would have started on it by now."


    Nathaniel''s nicotine addiction had reared its head, so he grabbed a cigarette from Terrance but


    didn''t light it. Instead, he sniffed it lightly before he toyed with it between his fingers.


    Terrance shook his head in reply and said, "It''s kind ofplicated. Mango''s verification needs to


    be sent to Santell Capital to be checked, and her identity as part of the Hans Family can only be


    reinstated after they give their approval. However, the process will take time and it can''t be rushed."


    "Mango''s birthday is around the corner."


    Nathaniel suddenly piped up, which made Terrance pause.


    "Are you going to have a birthday party for her?"


    "My only wish is to celebrate a peaceful birthday with my family. Previously, I wanted to propose to


    her on her birthday and announce that Mango was my wife to the entire Ocean City. I want her to


    know that she will always be my one and only. However, her body can''t take too much excitement


    since the incident, so the proposal will have to wait."


    Nathaniel confided in Terrance about his original n.


    A strange glint flickered in Terrance''s eyes as he muttered, "You can propose when she''s fully


    recovered." "I thought so too. After we get married here, well take our children away and live the


    lives we always dreamed of."


    However, Terrance gripped the handle of his wheelchair tightly and replied, "I know that I shouldn''t


    stop the both of you, but my mother has just found her granddaughter again, so wouldn''t it..."


    "Well find time to video call Madam Hans as often as possible."


    Nathaniel cut Terrance off immediately.


    The older man still wanted to continue, but then he noticed Nathaniel staring straight at him with a


    piercing gaze made him avoid eye contact.


    "Why are you looking at me like that?"


    "I suddenly remembered that I have to call you ''uncle''just like Mango."


    "You don''t need to do that."


    Terrance suddenly felt very ufortable at the thought of Nathaniel calling him uncle.


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    However, Nathaniel only smiled before he replied, "Of course I do. After all, we''re a family now.


    Uncle, Mango will be in my care from now on, so you don''t have to be too worried. You''re already in


    your thirties, so you should find a good woman to settle down with. Plus, Madam Hans was so dead


    set on searching for Mango because she wanted to find an heir for the Hans Family. Don''t you think


    that you should do your part to provide more heirs for the Hans Family?"


    Terrance''s expression darkened when he heard those words.


    Clearly, Nathaniel knew what he was thinking. Even though Terrance knew that Mango was his


    niece and there was no chance that they would be together, he couldn''t allow Nathaniel to force him


    into marriage, right?


    "Are you taking Mango on a vacation just because of that?"


    "Of course not, my only intention is for her to rx and have some fun. To be honest, Mango had no


    idea of all this. You were her friend who suddenly turned out to be her uncle, so you should know


    how much she values family. If not, why would she risk her life to do all that? You and Mango were


    never meant to be, so wouldn''t it be better to find someone else that you can grow to love? Frankly,


    I think our absence would be a good thing for you, for Mango and the Hans Family as well."


    Nathaniel didn''t intend to put it so bluntly, but he knew that it might be a thorn in Terrance''s


    side if he didn''t say anything about it.


    Because of that, Terrance had an awkward expression on his face.


    "I understand. I''ll be more vignt about my actions in the future."


    "Don''t just go looking for any random woman for the sake of it. The future daughter-inw of the


    Hans Family needs to be someone you genuinely love."


    Nathaniel patted Terrance on the shoulder and this was as much as he was going to say. As for the


    rest, he thought that it would be better for Terrance to figure it out himself.


    Honestly, the worst thing one could experience was to find out that the girl you loved was rted to


    you by blood.


    Unfortunately, Terrance still hadn''t let go of his unrequited love for Mango.


    After that, Nathaniel said in a low voice, "I''ll be going. Mango will be worried if I''m not there when


    she wakes up."


    He turned and walked away after he finished speaking. Meanwhile, Terrance was left alone in his


    wheelchair as he stared out at the scenery and his mind was filled with thoughts.


    Just as Nathaniel walked back towards the ward, he spotted a strange figure peeking out at him


    from the crack underneath the door.
