Chapter 393
"Rainie!"
Thomas felt like he was in big trouble now.
Rainie had always been the most staunch protector of Mango, and it took a lot of effort for Thomas
to stop Rainie from doing anything when Nathaniel and Andrea''s scandal came to light. Now, he
med himself for saying too much.
After he stopped Rainie with great difficulty, Thomas hurriedly said, "I swear that I''ll go and bring Mr.
Ye back, okay? Stay here, the Ye Family has enough to deal with and plus the kids are there. It''s
possible that they don''t know about what happened, so what will they do if you kick up a fuss?"
Then, Rainie suddenly stopped in her tracks.
She could ignore the world if it meant that Mango would be okay, but Rainie was hesitant when it
involved the children.
Thomas was right. Zion and Rita were still young, and this incident would be a huge blow to their
emotional well-being. Even if it were fake, it would still affect them.
Meanwhile, Thomas breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Rainie regain her senses.
"You stay home and take care of yourself. I swear I''ll bring Nathaniel back, okay?"
"Let him be. He''ll know what he lost once Mango leaves him."
Rainie was so angry that she turned around and went back to her room.
Of course Thomas knew that Rainie was worried about Mango, and it was a blessing to have a
friend like her.
He smiled before he abided by Nathaniel''s instructions and got the money. After all, he''d been
working for Nathaniel for a long time and he knew that Nathaniel wouldn''t do anything out of the
ordinary.
He didn''t ask about Andrea, but he knew that Nathaniel would never find another woman, much less
Andrea.
So when Nathaniel asked him to go to the casino, his boss must have his own ns.
When Thomas brought the money, Nathaniel had already changed into casual clothing as he held a
cigarette which was lit up in his hand. However, he did not smoke it and instead just twirled it
around in his fingers, deep in thought.
"Mr. Ye."
Then, Thomas came forward and greeted him which snapped Nathaniel out of his reverie.
"Oh, you''re here?"
"Yup."
After that, Thomas got into the car and he couldn''t help but ask when he saw Nathaniel worried
expression. "Why do you want to go to the casino?"
"It seems like a good idea to experience new things,"
Since Nathaniel didn''t seem like he wanted to talk, Thomas didn''t ask further and they made their
way to one of the smaller casinos in Ocean City. Soon after, Nathaniel had managed to lose all of
his money.
"I don''t want to y anymore, let''s try this again tomorrow."
Nathaniel didn''t really mind that he''d lost a few million and he casually walked away.
Naturally, the people in the casino were all smiles as they encouraged him. "Mr. Ye, you''re rather
unlucky today, so how about you try again tomorrow?"
"Again? This is the first time I''m here, and yet I''ve lost five million dors already. You still want me
toe and throw money at you? In your dreams! Ocean City has plenty of casinos, and I don''t
believe that none will let me win."
Nathaniel''s words caused the casino staff to be at a loss for words, and they could only smile
awkwardly as they showed him out.
However, news of Nathaniel being a sore loser started to spread.
Even so, Nathaniel pretended not to know about this and he still bade Thomas to take his money to
another casino. Ultimately, he didn''t win very often, but at least he didn''t lose all his money.
Later in the day, Nathaniel had Thomas take him to another casino.
Over the next three days, Nathaniel and Thomas had visited nearly all the casinos in Ocean City.
Nathaniel had lost more than a hundred million dors in total.
This matter became the butt of jokes in Ocean City, and it was a hot topic.
Some people said that Nathaniel had been driven mad by the loss of his wife, and some people
said that this showed that Nathaniel was human as well instead of some untouchable god.

When Madam Hans heard the news, she was so pissed off that she nearly smacked someone.
"What a b*stard! Why can''t he just die already!
This won''t do, I need to go to the Ye Family and avenge Andrea."
Then, Madam Hans''s words made Andrea burst into tears again.
"Don''t go, grandma. This incident is so shameful, how will I ever be able to show my face if it gets
out?"
"Unable to show your face? Nathaniel has done such a ghastly thing and yet he can still gallivant
around like nothing happened. Do you think he cares about you? You''re always considerate
towards him, but has he ever spared you a nce? No matter what, he''s hurt you and he hasn''t
evenpensated for it. He could have sent someone over to smooth things over and give you a
gift. Instead, what is he doing now? I will not let a child of the Hans Family be bullied like this!"
Madam Hans'' words sparked a gleam in Andrea''s eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
"Grandma, don''t make fun of me. I''m not a member of the Hans Family, and after this incident, I''m
not qualified to be a part of the family at all."
"Silly girl, you''re qualified if I say you are. Today I want to tell everyone that you are the adopted
daughter of the Hans Family, and you are my granddaughter. Let''s see who dares to bully you next
time."
Hence, Madam Hans did as what she said. She quickly contacted some reporters and had a press
conference to say that Andrea was formally part of the Hans Family and she was her
granddaughter.
After this was announced, the entirety of Ocean City was in an uproar.
A long time ago, everyone in Ocean City knew that Madam Hans was looking for her eldest son
Dennis'' illegitimate daughter. Now that she''d announced that Andrea was her adopted
granddaughter, someone naturally discovered that Andrea was Queena''s daughter and the both of
them had cared for Madam Hans in the hospital together.
Therefore, everyone thought that Andrea was obviously Madam Hans'' biological granddaughter!
As soon as this news came out, Sisi and Newell could no longer sit still.
No matter what happened to Mango and Nathaniel, Thomas had given them instructions to remain
calm and to believe that Nathaniel would handle this. Now that Mango''s rightful identity had been
taken away, the two of them could no longer sit still and called Thomas to ask about the news.
Meanwhile, Thomas had ryed this information to Nathaniel.
Then, Nathaniel sneered and said, "Madam Hans has really gone senile."
"Then this..." "Leave it alone. This was a good y from Andrea, and now that she has the Hans
Family behind her, who knows what other tricks she''ll pull off. I don''t have the time to mount a
counterattack, so let me deal with this before I do anything else. But since she''s so desperate, have
someone call some productionpanies to ask her if she''s interested in adult films. I''m sure she''ll
fetch a good price."
As soon as Nathaniel finished speaking, Thomas understood what he meant.
Andrea''s attempt to scheme against Nathaniel had yet toe to an end. Now that she''d stolen
Mango''s identity, did she think that she could do whatever she wanted in Ocean City?
The productionpanies had already begun to call Andrea for offers right after she''d been
formally acknowledged. She hadn''t even had the time to be happy about it.
At first, Andrea was a little confused until the other party asked her if she was interested in doing
adult films. Only then did she realise what was going on.
She immediately burst into tears.
"Grandma, look, they''re still humiliating me like this even though they know that I''m the Hans
Family''s granddaughter. Who do you think is doing this? Is it Nathaniel?"
Andrea sobbed and shouted desperately which worried Madam Hans greatly.
"Nathaniel has gone to far! Not only did he force himself on you, but he still continues to hurt you.
Does he think that the Hans Family is a bunch of pushovers?"
Thus, Madam Hans was so angry that she really wanted to go and argue with the Ye Family.
At that moment, Terrance had finally made it back home.
As soon as he returned, news of Madam Hans recognising Andrea reached his ears and he was so
livid that he nearly burst a blood vessel. Before he could say anything to Madam Hans, he received
word that his mother wanted to ask forpensation from the Ye Family.
"Mother, that''s enough!"
After that, Terrance roared furiously and locked Madam Hans up in her ward.
Meanwhile, Andrea called out timidly to Terrance.
"Uncle."
"God, hearing you call me that disgusts me."
His response caused Andrea to feel very ashamed.
On the other hand, Madam Hans was so pissed off that she immediately pped him.
"How could you say that? I acknowledged her as my granddaughter so she''s part of our family.
Doesn''t that make you her uncle?"
"I only have one niece, and that''s Mango. I will not acknowledge any other riffraff you brought in the
door."
Terrance''s words were ruthless and Andrea immediately rushed off somewhere to cry.
Then, Madam Hans replied angrily, "Don''t you know what Mango has done? Haven''t you seen the
news? Don''t even think of letting such a shameless woman into our household!"
"Mango''s scandal is definitely a misunderstanding! Mom, even if other people misunderstand her,
how could you see her that way? She''s your biological granddaughter!"
"Well, I''m not going to acknowledge her! I don''t have a granddaughter who''s as shameless and
morally corrupted like this!"
Madam Hans''s words caused Terrance''s chest to ache from anger.
"Fine, you can not acknowledge Mango since you said she''s so morally corrupted and shameless,
but what about Andrea? Just as Mango was ndered in the media, she seduced Nathaniel and
embarrassed herself. However, you still think she''s the greatest thing ever and invited her into our
home. Don''t you think she''ll bring shame to our family?"
As soon as Terrance finished his words, Andrea suddenly cried even more pitifully.
"Uncle, what''s the point of living if you look down on me like this? I might as well just die!"
After that, she suddenly stood up and ran towards the window.
"Andrea! Somebody stop her!"
Madam Hans immediately became anxious.
Then, Terrance replied coldly, "Don''t stop her, just let her die! Let''s see if she has the guts to jump
off the 13th floor!"
Andrea''s eyes widened in surprise and she hated Terrance right now. s, she could not stop.
She was stuck between a rock and a hard ce.
Then, Andrea suddenly turned around and kowtowed to Madam Hans before she said, "Grandma,
you''re the only person who''s ever been kind to me, but I can only repay your kindness in the next
life. You have to take care of yourself when I''m no longer by your side, okay? I''ll be off!"
After that, she got up, closed her eyes, gritted her teeth as she dashed towards the window.
