Chapter 524
Walter didn''t care about what Mango thought about Nick. All he cared about was her wellbeing.
Walter had been paying attention to Mango and he noticed her expression was awful, and she was
struggling to stand on her feet. Seeing this, his brows were knitted in a worried frown.
"I should call Noah, no, maybe Genevieve, toe over and check on your condition."
After that, Walter immediately took out his phone, but he was stopped by Mango.
"No, I''m fine."
Mango was looking a little anxious and tense.
Walter was a keen person, and he instantly knew her concerns. She was worried that it was
inappropriate if they were to be seen by others hanging out in the Song family''s residence.
However, Walter couldn''t care less.
He immediately put away his phone. Then, Walter bent down to pick Mango up before walking
towards the guest room on the other side.
Mango was stunned for a moment and she then struggled out of his embrace.
"Walter, put me down!"
"I''ll do that once we reach the room."
Walter insisted.
Mango couldn''t escape his hold, so she just let it be. She then closed her eyes while pretending to
ignore the situation. Despite that, Mango could still hear the sound of his rapid heartbeats from a
close distance.
Walter was surprised by her sudden silence. He nced at her, only to see that she was closing her
eyes while flickering her long eyshes. Although her face was pale, Mango was somewhat
attractive to him.
Walter suddenly had a desire to hold her in his arms forever and never let go of her. As his urge
was getting stronger, he couldn''t help but lower his head to kiss her in his arms.
Just as he was about to approach her cheeks, a sudden cough interrupted his reveries. Then,
Walter regained his consciousness once again.
What the hell was he doing?
Mango trusted him with all her heart. However, he almost harassed her.
Walter''s face was flushing red. Then, he quickly looked up to the person who was coughing, and it
turned out to be Carter.
His father''s sharp gaze was about to tear him apart. However, Carter seemed to be wary about
something. Instead, he just red at Walter without a word. Clearly, he was being cautious around
Mango.
Just then, Walter was like a child being caught making a mistake. At the same time, he was very
embarrassed. Despite that, he turned his head away boldly, pretended as if nothing had happened
before bringing Mango back to the room.
Mango let out a sigh of relief.
She knew clearly about Walter''s intention just now. Mango even clenched her fists and she was
nning to punch him if he kissed her. Fortunately, such an embarrassing thing did not happen.
Mango was having conflicting thoughts. Whether she needed Walter''s help or not, Mango that she
could not stay there any longer. Based on Walter''s undying feelings for her, she knew that they
couldn''t be together.
After carrying Mango into the guest room, Walter felt a little uneasy. He coughed awkwardly before
uttering, "Take a rest first. I''ll call Genevieve toe over."
This time, Mango did not reject him. Genevieve was Noah''s wife, she was her attending doctor.
Since the doctor was a woman, perhaps Mango could rely on her to leave the ce.
Mango nodded and she did not open her eyes. She seemed to be very tired, but Walter knew that
Mango just wanted to avoid the awkward tension between them.
All of a sudden, Walter felt a little annoyed.
Why couldn''t he resist himself? Not to mention, Walter almost took advantage of Mango.
Didn''t he say his feelings had nothing to do with her? Didn''t he say that he wouldn''t force her to
change her attitude and emotions towards him? Why did he almost lose control of himself?
Walter left instantly.
Meanwhile, Mango looked at the closed door and she sighed gently.
Now that everything was in a mess, she had no energy left to deal with Walter''s feelings for her.
Moreover, Mango had made it clear that she might not be able to contact Walter for the time being.
She had always thought that his feelings for her were vague. With Walter''s free and easy attitude,
Mango thought that he would forget about it sooner orter. However, she did not expect him to be
so persistent and that his feelings were genuine.
She could see through Walter''s stares, and they were exactly like how Nathaniel looked at her.
Mango let out another sigh. Just then, Nathaniel''s figure shed across her mind.
What on earth had happened to him?
She dialed Nathaniel''s number again, but there was still no sign of him. Mango felt extremely
nervous as she waited for him without any news. If only she could track him to find out what exactly
had happened! However, Mango knew that the most important thing at the moment was to ensure
Rita and Madam Ye''s safety.
If their guesses about Nick''s odd behavior were correct, then both Rita and Madam Ye would most
likely be in danger.
Mango was on tenterhooks.
Soon, Genevieve rushed over. Although she didn''t know why Mango would appear in the Song
family''s house, Genevieve didn''t ask any further questions. Just then, her brows creased slightly at
the sight of Mango.
"Have you been naughty recently? You didn''t take the medicine on time, right?"
Genevieve quickly examined Mango while asking.
Mango knew that she wasn''t obedient and that the doctor disliked patients like her the most.
However, she said helplessly, "I don''t have the time to worry about it."
"What can be more important than your health? Mango, if you still want to be with Nathaniel for a
long time and see your children grow up happily, you have to listen to my advice. Otherwise, no one
can help you. Doctors are not God, and we can never save you from death."
Genevieve was slightly angry.
Mango knew that the doctor was worried about her, so she muttered, "Nathaniel is missing again."
"What?"
Genevieve was slightly taken aback.

Mango didn''t hide the truth and she told everything to her directly this time.
"How could this be? What does Nick want to do to him? After all, Mr. Ye is his biological brother.
How can he do such a thing to you and the children?"
Mango didn''t tell her much about her doubts regarding Nick, because there was no evidence to
prove her spection. Upon hearing Genevieve''s question, she smiled bitterly, "I also want to know
why. What I''m most worried about now isn''t Nathan. Maybe he couldn''t get away from some issue
right now, but I''ve already sent Merle over. Based on Nathan''s capability, he will endure everything
until Merle''s arrival. Even if the two encounter danger, they will think of ways to ovee it.
Anyway, I have confidence in Nathan. Right now, I''m anxious about Rita, Wisdom, and my mother-
inw."
"What''s the point of worrying? How much longer can you suffer from that weak body of yours?
Mango, I care about you. Right now, you''re just fighting for time with the Grim Reaper. If you win,
then so be it. Otherwise, you will die for real!"
Mango obviously understood her words. If she had other choices, how would she willing to put her
health at risk? Who wouldn''t want to live a prosperous and healthy life while sharing the good
moments with their loved ones? But right now, she could not calm down to focus on recovery when
the people she cared for the most were facing a crisis.
Mango didn''t say anything, and her silence angered Genevieve even more.
"Keep being stubborn then! One day, I will no longer care for you and the kids."
Mango stered a smile.
Although Genevieve put it in that way, Mango knew that she didn''t mean it.
"Genevieve, thank you."
"Stop saying that. I don''t ept it."
Genevieve quickly treated Mango with an IV drip and she said coldly, "Do you know that your body
can no longer tolerate the antibiotics? What if Nathaniel and Rita are back, but you''re gone? If you
don''t listen to me, I''ll tell Zion about your condition."
"No! Don''t let Zion know about this. That kid had been through a tough period. To be honest,
although he is mature, Zion has never experienced such a thing. I''m relieved that he has you and
Noah to take care of him now. Even if anything happens to me, I''m not worried about him as long as
he''s with you guys. With the close friendship between Noah and Nathan, I believe that he will treat
Zion well, right?"
Mango looked at Genevieve. That yearning gaze almost made thetter cry.
"Stop it. I''ll try my best to protect you!"
"I know that you are a good person."
Mango held her hand.
Genevieve felt ufortable at the feeling of her cold hands.
"How is Zion? Is he doing alright?" Mango felt sorry for him.
Genevieve said in a low voice, "He is fine. Now that Gissel is apanying her, Zion''s mind state
is considered stable. It''s just that he is eager to leave the hospital."
"Gissel? The girl who can''t speak?"
Mango still remembered Gissel.
Genevieve nodded and she finally smiled.
"Yes, she''s a very good girl, but it''s a pity that she can''t speak. Noah and I checked on her, and we
found that her disabilities are inflicted by someone. It''s really cruel! Moreover, Gissel has no family,
and his only sister has been sold away by the human traffickers. So far, her whereabouts are
unknown. As you know, Noah and I don''t have a child, so we intend to adopt Gissel as our
daughter."
Mango was stunned for a moment and she immediately smiled happily, "Congrattions to you
guys!"
"We will hold a party to celebrate the adoption. Noah said the fate between parents and children
can''t be determined by a change in name, so both of us decide to keep her name. We will love her
greatly so that she can grow up healthily. Also, Zion and Gissel are good friends, so we can let them
meet regrly. If you''re busy these days, I will bring Zion back to our house with Gissel. I know you
are afraid that he will find out about Rita''s current situation, the matter involving Ye family, and also
Nathaniel''s disappearance. Don''t worry, I will use Gissel as an excuse, saying that she needs
someone to apany her to adapt to the new environment. For now, Zion will stay with us for a
few days."
"Thank you, Genevieve."
Seeing that the doctor had arranged everything properly, Mango felt extremely grateful.
"Mango, I''m not going to raise Zion for you. I already have a daughter, so I don''t care about your
son. Do you hear me? Hurry up and settle the things around you! Come back and take him away
when the timees. I refuse to let that brat steals our love for Gissel away!"
Even though Genevieve had said so, Mango knew that she was concerned about her.
She smiled. Just when Mango was about to say something, her phone suddenly rang.
