Chapter 552


    "Zion!"


    Mango was extremely worried as she could no longer hear anything from Zion''s end.


    Did something happen to Zion?


    Mango''s heart was racing in anxiety and desperation, and she wanted to go back home right now to


    check on Zion.


    Hence, Mango didn''t know what to do and she felt extremely helpless when Zion’s call came in


    again.


    "Mommy."


    "Are you okay? Did something go wrong?"


    Mango''s heart was pounding uncontrobly.


    She could no longer bear any additional trauma in this dire situation, and Zion was her closest and


    dearest family member.


    Then, Zion shook his head and said, "No, it’s nothing much, but someone tried to track down my


    location and they almost seeded, so I had to cut off the signal."


    Mango heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing Zion’s words, but she still asked in worry, "Are you


    really okay?"


    "I''m really fine, mommy, but Uncle Song''s signal is probably blocked as I can''t seem to find it


    anymore."


    "It''s okay since we already know his location, just leave the rest to me and don''t take any risks


    anymore."


    Cold sweat beaded up on Mango''s forehead.


    Then, she suddenly regretted getting Zion involved in this matter.


    He was still a child after all, so how could let him take the risk along with her?


    Hence, Mango felt that she was very useless.


    "Mommy, don''t worry as everything is fine here. I can use other methods to hack into the system


    even though the signal is blocked."


    "No! Please don''t!"


    Mango refused directly.


    "Zion, listen to me, you''ve already helped me a lot, so just leave the rest to me. Really, I can do it by


    myself."


    Zion could discern Mango''s anxiety and uneasiness as well as her concern and worry for him.


    "Fine, mommy, I promise, but you must let me know if you need my help as something has already


    happened to Mr. Ye, and I don''t want the same thing to happen to you... or else Rita and I will both


    be orphans..."


    Then, Zion suddenly burst into tears as he said those words.


    Mango had rarely heard Zion cry and had always thought that this child would never shed tears, but


    the moment she heard him cry, she felt incredibly heartbroken and devastated.


    Gosh, how insecure he was!


    She had always thought that Zion didn''t have a good rtionship with Nathaniel, yet who knew that


    he saw Nathaniel as the pir of the family? Now that something unfortunate happened to


    Nathaniel, Zion felt as if his world had copsed. His cries revealed his insecurity and perturbation


    at this moment although he seemed very calm usually.


    Meanwhile, Mango''s heart throbbed in pain and sorrow.


    From the moment Zion was born, she had never provided him a peaceful living environment as they


    had been relying on the Tang family, although they never had to worry about their daily needs. Now


    that they had returned to Ocean City by Nathaniel''s side in the Ye family, she thought that her


    children could finally settle down and live a stable life, yet every incident that had urred until now


    never gave them a sense of security.


    Hence, Mango felt incredibly guilty and kept ming herself for this.


    "Don''t cry, my darling, I promise you that I won''t let you and Rita be orphans. It''s okay, stop


    crying..."


    "Mommy, you must never break your promise, okay?"


    Mango'' s heart tightened in sorrow as Zion sobbed.


    "Okay, I''ll keep my word and never bear the stress on my own if I ever need your help. I also


    promise to try my best and bring dad home no matter what so that I can give you and Rita a


    complete home."


    Mango almost shed tears but she was trying her best to hold it back.


    She couldn''t cry!


    If she did, Zion would feel even more anxious if she started weeping.


    "Yes, it''s a deal!"


    "Deal."


    Then, Mango hung up the phone but still couldn''t calm herself down for quite a while.


    She had to keep the promise she made and get through all the obstacles no matter how difficult


    things might be. Her only solution now was to visit the Underground City now that Nathaniel and


    Walter were both missing and Anaya was still with Shaquille Seeyan.


    Hence, she believed that everything would proceed in the right direction as long as she could find


    Nathaniel.


    On the other hand, Emberly''s racing heart was finally at ease now that she confirmed Mango''s


    identity, so she asked the security guard to investigate Mango''s alleged theft.


    Coincidentally, a staff member did indeed take something out of Mango''s room when she came in to


    clean the suite.


    Hence, Emberly brought her to Mango.


    "Miss Gerner, this staff member indeed stole your belongings but she kept denying that it was your


    purse. How would you like to punish her?"


    Emberly did this on purpose to put on a show for Mango, as other people would usually ask


    Emberly to take care of the issue herself. However, Mango was taken aback and her heart thumped


    in shock.


    Was it really stolen?


    Then, she frowned slightly and asked, "Return me whatever you stole, or else there will be


    consequences."


    The staff member underestimated Mango as she was pretty and slender. If she could make it


    through this hurdle, she could make some money after handing the item to Emberly, as the thing


    was no use to her anyway.


    On the other hand, Emberly felt contented deep down seeing that the staff member was unwilling to


    cooperate, but Mango’s expression darkened.


    Losing her purse was just an excuse Mango came up with on the fly, but she hadn''t realized that


    something had actually been stolen. When she checked her pockets thoroughly, she realized that


    she''d lost her stamp.


    She was a designer and had her own special stamp that was engraved with her nickname. Although


    these people might not recognize it, Ryan knew and her identity would be exposed if he got hold of


    her seal.


    Moreover, the seal was made of top-notch pear blossom wood so it was incredibly expensive and


    more importantly, a gift from Zion. She had no idea where the brat got such expensive material, but


    she couldn''t afford to lose her son’s gift.


    Mango could tell from Emberly''s and the worker''s attitude that they had a good rtionship so she


    was burning with rage deep inside her chest.


    She hadn''t had the chance to take revenge on Emberly for what happened to Anaya, yet Emberly


    was nowing for her?


    Then, Mango sneered and said, "I''ll say it once more, return my things!"


    "I have no idea what you''re talking about."


    The staff member stuck to her guns.


    Hence, Mango didn''t want to waste any more time and she went forward and dislocated the staff


    member''s arm.


    Her movement was so quick that no one saw iting. When they realized what was happening,


    her arm had already been dislocated.


    "Ahh!"


    The staff member came to her senses before yelping in pain.


    However, Mango showed no mercy as her hand grasped tightly on the staff member''s neck. Her


    eyes were filled with murderous intent.


    "I''m actually a very generous person, you know? If you’d told me that you need money, I would’ve


    given some to you anyhow. But the problem is, I hate people taking my things without asking for my


    permission beforehand and I’d never let this issue slide. However, I’ve given you a chance to admit


    it and you can’t me me as you''re the one who didn''t appreciate it. Return me my items and I''ll let


    you go, or else I don''t mind murdering you here! You should know that it wouldn''t be a problem for


    me even if I get sued in court for homicide, considering my social status...”


    Mango spoke very slowly and even nced at Emberly a few times intentionally.


    On the other hand, Emberly didn''t expect that Mango had both a bad temper and amazing martial


    arts skills.


    Hence, she could not help but shiver in fear.


    "Miss Gerner, it''s not a good idea to kill someone here."


    "Is that so? I’m sure many people have lost their lives in the Underground City. You must''ve gotten


    used to death, right? Do you really think I won''t do it?"

    Mango tightened her fingers as she spoke and the worker’ s face flushed red in a sh with


    difort.


    "Don''t kill me... I’ll spill the beans! I just took your seal as I saw that it was made of blossom wood.


    Because of that, I got greedy... I’m sorry, here’s your seal, I’ll give it back.”


    The worker hurriedly took the seal out of her pocket using her unhurt hand and handed it over to


    Mango as she trembled in extreme trepidation.


    Then, Emberly quickly took a step forward to have a look and nced at Mango several times when


    she noticed that it was her nickname.


    "Miss Gerner, this nickname is..."


    "Don''t ask anything you shouldn''t, Manager Wang. Honestly, you should be well aware of this rule.


    Aren''t you aware of what a stamp signifies in the upper echelons of society?”


    Mango red at Emberly coldly and the viciousness in her gaze intimidated her.


    "Yes, you''re right... The stamp is a valuable item and you can''t lose it."


    Emberly replied to Mango helplessly.


    The wood was of top-notch quality and this small stamp was worth more than a million dors. s,


    she could only have a look and that was it.


    Although Emberly wasn''t too happy about it, her life was way more valuable than stealing a stamp.


    Mango took the stamp back and examined it carefully to confirm that it was hers. After that, she let


    go of the staff member and her expression returned to normal.


    "The stamp is very important to me, as for the rest, just take it as a gift from me to you."


    The staff member felt aggrieved when she heard what Mango said.


    "Miss Gerner, I took only your stamp and didn''t take anything else." "Is that so? But my purse is


    gone, and if you decided on stealing my belongings, would you pass over the cash in my purse?


    Forget it, I don''t want to argue with you over it. I''ll give you my wallet now that I’ve gotten back my


    seal. Manager Wang, please leave my room if there’s nothing else as I want to take a rest now.”


    Hence, Mango ordered them to leave immediately.


    The staff member wanted to say something further but she was frightened by Emberly''s gaze. She


    could tell that she was doomed as Emberly wouldn''t believe her anymore no matter what she said.


    On the other hand, Mango didn''t feel the slightest bit of sympathy for the staff member''s fate as


    someone as greedy as her was bound to face such consequences someday.


    Just as Mango turned around and was about to return to her room, Emberly gave the others a look


    and the staff member was dragged away with her mouth muffled. Then, Emberly stopped Mango.


    "Miss Gerner, do you need a pass to the underground city?"


    "Manager Wang, are you nning to have me state my price?"


    Mango spoke in a somewhat careless manner as she knew that Emberly eagerly wanted to sell out


    the passes. Furthermore, Emberly would also face big consequences if Ryan knew that she was


    selling the passes in private.


    Then, Emberly became anxious seeing Mango act so nonchntly.
