    Chapter 588


    Thomas''s car passed by Nick''s just like that.


    Nick found out that it was a dead-end after he drove his car to the alley.


    It was impossible for him to get out as the people outside were all Nathaniel''s men.


    Nick''s brows were tightly furrowed.


    He held Mango in his arms as he went to one of the homes in the housing area.


    Even though Nathaniel used a lot of resources to find Mango, he would never openly say that he''s


    looking for her because this will affect Mango''s reputation and outsiders would think that she had


    run away with Nick.


    That was why Nick dared to show up.


    He gave the family an amount of money and rented the house for two days.


    The owner of the house was overjoyed and agreed to it immediately after seeing the amount of


    money that he was willing to spend for just two days of stay.


    Mango found herself to be in a different ce when she woke up. She looked around the


    surroundings in confusion. This was a simple yet warm bungalow.


    She didn''t know where she was, but could only see Nick smoking from a distance away from her.


    He looked exactly like Nathaniel when he was smoking.


    Mango felt a bit of a difort in her heart.


    She had only been away for a few hours. Why did it feel like she was in a different world?Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    She wondered how Nathaniel was doing now.


    "Are you awake? Do eat if you''re up. Well leave in a while."


    Nathaniel threw her a piece of bread, which was hot from the oven..


    Mango felt a little depressed for a moment as she couldn''t tell where the bread was from even after


    she had examined it for a while.


    Nick seemed to be very anxious.


    He stood up and paced back and forth in the room.


    Mango tore the bread bit by bit and threw it under the bed when he was not paying attention to her.


    If she''s not mistaken, there might be some drug in the bread, which could make her feel weak and


    fall into deep sleep.


    Mango fell into a state of drowsiness not long after she finished her bread.


    Nick only went inside to have a look at her after she hadpletely fallen into a deep sleep.


    Mango held her breath and tried to breathe consistently as if she was really asleep.


    Nick got up and dialed a number with his phone after looking at her for a while.


    "Hello? I need your help now."


    Mango didn''t know who Nick was calling, but she was very excited at this moment. Would she be


    able to help Nathaniel a little if she found some clue on who was the mastermind behind Nick?


    She could not help but perk up her ears after she thought about this.


    Nick thought that Mango was asleep so he turned his phone to hands-free mode as he wanted to


    get something.


    The voice from the other end of the phone sounded like a robot. It sounded like a voice changer.


    "Nathaniel is looking everywhere for you now. How dare you call me now?"


    "What? You''re going to abandon me at this time? Don''t forget that I''m Nathaniel''s brother and


    mom''s helping me. The most he can do is lock me up and the only thing I would lose is my freedom.


    I won''t be harmed. However, I''m not sure if I can get you out if I''m captured. Nathaniel might not do


    anything to me, but that doesn''t mean he won''t do anything to you. What do you think?"


    The other party was stunned for a while after listening to what Nick said, he then asked, "Where are


    you?"


    "You don''t have to know where I am. I just need you to prepare a boat for me to get out of Ocean


    City."


    The other party said, "Impossible. Nathaniel has sealed off the entire sea. He''s guarded every exit


    in Ocean City. I can''t send you out."


    "Stop fooling around. Do you think that I don''t know how Nanny Zhang sent Mango out? Don''t think


    that you can fool me just because I have not returned back then. Don''t forget that Nanny Zhang is


    my biological mother. She pampers me the most and tells me everything. I want to leave Ocean City


    at 11pm tonight. As long as I can be sent to Jigsaw''s ce in A City, I don''t care whatever method


    you use.


    Mango was slightly taken aback by Nick''s words.


    He really had something to do with Jigsaw.


    Not only that, but he also had contact with Nanny Zhang. So, was Jigsaw also Nanny Zhang''s man?


    Who was this person who dared not show up and only talked with a voice changer?


    No wonder Nathaniel couldn''t find her and Zion when they were sent out of Ocean City no matter


    how hard he searched for them.


    This person must be someone they were extremely familiar with. Otherwise, why would he use a


    sound changer?


    Mango felt a little depressed.


    How many spies were hidden around them? Nathaniel must have been very sad to have grown up


    in such an environment.


    Mango sighed. She heard the other party say, "Are you alone?"


    "There''s two of us here."


    "Who else?"


    "That''s not for you to ask."


    Nick''s tone was harsh.


    The other side stopped talking. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "Well, I will get you out at


    eleven o''clock in the evening, but this is thest time. Nanny Zhang said that she would never use


    me again, and she had given meplete freedom. Both of you can''t break your promise."


    "I know. We won''t use you again after we leave this time. Everything shoulde to an end."


    Nick hung up the phone after he finished talking.


    He was lost in thought as he looked at the sky.


    Mango opened her eyes slightly. There was a moment where she seemed to capture a hint of


    sorrow within Nick''s eyes.


    He was so sad.


    Why was that so?


    He said that everything shoulde to an end just now. What did that mean?


    Mango did not dare to act rashly despite all the questions in her head.


    Her body had not recovered yet and she didn''t have much strength. She could only continue her


    n to sniff out more clues for the sake of helping Nathaniel.


    Mango closed her eyes once again, but she heard Nick''s sigh.


    He took out his cigarette and lit three of them. He then put them on the windowsill and prayed to the


    window three times and said, "My brothers, you must watch over me. I must seed this time. This


    thing has toe to an end no matter what."


    Brothers?


    Mango opened her eyes again and looked at Nick''s back.


    Who was the brother that he mentioned?


    It wouldn''t be Macy, right?


    Didn''t he say it was all for Macy? Didn''t he say it was all because Nathaniel was always better than


    him? How could he have another brother?


    Nick seemed to have sensed someone looking at him from behind. He jerked his head back and


    Mango shut her eyes quickly as her heart started to quiver.


    Oh, God!


    That was close!


    Nick almost discovered that she was not sleeping.


    Mango''s hands couldn''t help but clench together.


    Nick frowned and walked towards Mango step by step.


    "Mango, I know you''re awake. What did you hear?"


    Nick opened his mouth coldly.


    Mango pretended to sleep and acted like she didn''t hear anything. She tried to calm herself down


    although it was very difficult. It was fortunate that she has been through a lot, and it built her


    courage.


    When Nick saw that Mango didn''t respond, he repeated "Don''t pretend anymore. I know you''re


    awake. Do you believe that I''ll rip your clothes off if you don''t speak?"


    You beast!


    Mango cursed in her heart, but she didn''t do anything else.


    She was afraid.


    She was afraid that Nick would know how much she heard if she answered him. He might kill her to


    keep her mouth shut.


    She only realized that she''s really afraid of death after experiencing a brush with the Grim Reaper.


    How could she die without regrets when she hadn''t lived a good life with Nathaniel? Besides, her


    children and her parents were waiting for her to take care of them too. There were so many things


    she still wanted to do.


    Mango tried her best to maintain the expression on her face and remained motionless.


    However, Mango almost failed because of the faint smell of Nick''s cologne as he suddenly leaned


    over.


    He rested his head on Mango''s face as he looked at her. His gaze was piercing as he gazed at


    Mango.


    Hence, Mango didn''t dare to move or change her breathing frequency.


    Nick was so sensitive that she couldn''t imagine the consequences that she would face if he found


    out.


    Nick looked at Mango for about two minutes. He let out a sigh of relief only when he saw that


    Mango was still as usual.


    He stood up and said to himself, "Did I think too much? Yes, there are so many sleeping pills in the


    bread. It would be strange if she woke up."


    Nick shook his head in self- mockery and then turned around after saying that.


    Just as Mango was about to let out a sigh of relief, she felt Nick suddenly turn his head around as


    he stared straight at Mango.


    She failed to catch her breath properly and she nearly choked herself. However, she didn''t dare


    move recklessly or make a sound.


    Nick was simply too treacherous.


    Mango cursed in her heart as she tried her best to maintain her current state.


    She couldn''t hold on any longer!


    Nathaniel turned around only when he saw that Mango was still in the same position as before. He


    walked to the window sill and put away the three cigarettes.


    Mango let out a light sigh of relief.


    She wanted to clear her throat from being frightened just now, but she could only bear with it for


    now.


    Honestly, Mango had a hard time holding it in.


    She was lucky that Nick suddenly received a call. He looked at Mango before leaving the room with


    the phone.


    Mango quickly stretched out her hand and covered her mouth just after he left the room. She felt a


    little better after clearing her throat.


    She felt troubled after looking at Nick standing outside.


    How could she inform Nathaniel even if she knew everything?


    Mango didn''t know if Nathaniel could find her as she looked around. However, there was always a


    glimmer of hope.


    She quickly found a pen and paper and took the opportunity to write down what she heard before


    Nick came back.


    However, Mango found a problem after she finished writing.


    Putting aside the strangeness of this location and whether anyone woulde by, she was thinking


    of where was she supposed to put this thing now that she had finished writing.


    Nobody would realize if she put it in an inconspicuous ce. However, all her efforts would go to


    waste like that.


    If she put it in a conspicuous ce, others could see it, and so would Nick. Her efforts would go to


    waste like that too.


    Mango''s brows were tightly knitted together.


    What should she do?
