Chapter 616


    Wisdom''s face abruptly became nervous. He looked straight at Bettany and his pleading eyes made


    it hard for her to refuse him.


    "Alright, I''ll save her. Don''t worry. It''s just that she has a fever now, and her emotions are unstable.


    This is unfavorable to her condition. You won''t get it now no matter how much I exin, but you will


    understand when you grow up. Anyway, listen to me from today onwards, ok?"


    Wisdom nodded his head quickly.


    Bettany touched his head with distress and said, "Now rest, and leave your mummy to me. You can


    be assured that I will protect and cure her. If you fall sick, I won''t save her."


    Wisdom quickly let go of Bettany after he heard what she said. He ran to the bed swiftly, pulled the


    quilt over himself, and closed his eyes.


    Bettany''s heart ached once again.


    She sighed and quickly called the nurse to assist in helping Mango.


    Mango felt dizzy. She felt like she was in a desert at first, then she felt like she was in the Arctic.


    The traumatizing feeling tormented her and she was in unbearable pain. She wanted to call for help


    as she saw Nathaniel''s shadow within the fog, but she couldn''t see him clearly.


    She wanted to reach out and grab Nathaniel, but Terrance''s voice rang in her ear.


    "Have you forgotten? It was his mother who forced your grandmother to death. You two have


    murdered two people. Will both of you really be happy together?”


    Mango paused for a moment. The image of Madam Hans dying appeared in front of her eyes once


    again.


    "No, it''s not like that! It''s not!"


    Mango tried her best to get rid of everything, but the harder she tried, the clearer the image was. It


    was as if everything had been etched into her mind.


    Nathaniel walked farther away in the fog, and he even let out a sigh.


    He said, "Mango, your uncle killed Nick, and my mother forced your grandmother to her death. How


    are we still going to be together?"


    "Don’t go! Nathan, don''t leave!"


    Mango shouted, but Nathaniel''s figure got farther away.


    Bettany sighed after seeing her current state, "Love has always been mankind''s downfall. Why did


    you have to do this?”


    Unfortunately, Mango couldn''t hear any of it.


    Bettany sorted Mango out as she was still in her daze. When Mango was pushed into the ward


    again, a small figure quickly closed the door and jumped onto the bed, without even taking off his


    shoes.


    Bettany couldn''t help but sigh when she saw Wisdom pretending to sleep.


    "Stop pretending. Your mommy is fine."


    Bettany was very envious of Mango.


    Although she was hurt because of her rtionship, at least she still had such a lovely kid who loved


    her and was willing to do anything for her. Wasn''t this fortunate enough for Mango?


    Bettany could not help but feel sad when she thought of herself.


    She left the ward with the nurse and stood alone in the corridor. She looked at the sky and


    pondered. If her son was still alive, would she also be so happy and blessed as well?


    She felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.


    Suddenly, a pair of tiny hands touched her lightly, but it tugged at her heartstrings.


    Bettany lowered her head and saw Wisdom looking at her with a cup of cold water in his hand.


    "Is this for me?”


    Bettany was ttered.


    She knew that she had forced Wisdom to stay with her, so she had never expected Wisdom to treat


    her well. However, the cup of cold water in his hands made her so touched that her eyes started to


    tear up.


    Wisdom nodded his head and held onto the cup of cold water.


    Bettany took it excitedly and said, "Thank you, Wisdom.”


    Then, Wisdom turned around and left without saying anything.


    He once again returned to Mango''s side to keep watch over her.


    After what seemed to be decades, Mango slowly opened her eyes.


    Everything in front of her was strange, but it also felt familiar at the same time.


    Wisdom stood up immediately and ran out to find Bettany when he saw her wake up.


    Mango looked at his small frame and did not know how to react.


    She wanted to get up, but the pain throughout her whole body made her sweat all over, and some


    memories began to sh in her mind.


    Madam Ye, Zion, Wisdom, Rita...


    Madam Hans!


    Everyone flitted around her mind as if they were taking a trip. Sadness welled up in her heart. She


    felt like she was suffocating, and it was as if invisible ropes were strangling her throat.


    She covered her neck and wanted to open her mouth to speak. However, she could not say


    anything, and the only noise was the sound of her babbling.


    Mango''s heart broke.


    She could not speak!


    She really became a mute!


    Mango suddenly burst out intoughter. Her eyes brimmed with tears and sheughed until she


    was out of breath.


    Sheughed at her innocence, her stupidity, and even more at her ipetence!


    What Madam Ye said was right. She was just a good-for-nothing!


    She couldn''t protect herself, the people around her, and she couldn''t even protect her rtionship


    either.


    She didn''t hate Nathaniel, but she knew that it was over between them.


    Mango seemed to have gone mad. She keptughing non-stop and did not stop even though she


    started coughing.


    This was the scene that Wisdom saw when he came back with Bettany.


    Bettany''s eyes narrowed slightly. She came forward quickly to hold Mango and said, "Even if you


    lose everything, at least you still have Wisdom. You are more blessedpared to me. At least you


    have a son who is willing to stay by your side no matter what, right?”


    Mango was immediately stunned.


    She looked at Wisdom in front of her and saw the worry and tears in his eyes. Her heart ached


    again.


    This was Nick''s son!


    If it weren''t for Mateo, he might have lived a good life with his parents.


    Madam Ye was right. It was the Hans family who owed this child, and she had to pay her dues.


    Mango beckoned to Wisdom.


    Wisdom ran over quickly. Tears rolled down his face when he threw himself into Mango''s arms.


    He didn''t cry like other children, but even as he shed tears silently, it still made people feel sorry for


    him.


    Mango wanted to tell Wisdom that she would treat him well in the future, but she couldn''t say a


    single word no matter how she tried.


    Bettany spoke in a low voice when she saw this scene, "Don''t worry, your vocal cords are fine. The


    drug irritated your vocal cords and they became inmed. I''ll check again after you rest for a while.


    It is notpletely impossible to get your voice back."


    Mango was happy upon hearing this. Was this a ray of hope in her misfortune?


    No one would like to be mute if they had a choice, right?


    She looked at Bettany gratefully.


    Bettany said in a low voice, "I''m not doing it for you. I''m doing this for Wisdom. He''s my disciple


    after all."


    Mango didn''t say anything else. She knew that Bettany was only using Wisdom as an excuse. If she


    had no intention to save Mango, there was no need to do so much.


    She looked at Bettany gratefully and caressed Wisdom in her arms.


    He was the only person she had left, wasn''t he?


    She did not know what happened to Zion and Rita. What would Nathaniel feel when he came home


    only to find that his family was separated?


    She smiled bitterly when she found that she was still thinking about Nathaniel.


    How could she forget a love that seeped so deep into her soul?


    However, remembering was a form of torture.


    It was clearly impossible for them to be together, and it was also undeniable that two deaths


    separated them. How could she continue this rtionship?


    Mango was in unbearable pain.Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    Bettany seemed to know what she was thinking. She sighed and said, "Just let go. Not everything in


    the world can forever be blissful just because you are hopeful. Some people are not destined to be


    together, and some things are impossible to achieve. This is fate, so maybe both of you are really


    not meant to be.”


    Not meant to be?


    Mango didn''t know.


    She only knew that she would think of Nick''s tragic murder when she thought of Nathaniel now. She


    could only think of Madam Hans who was forced to her death, and the schemes that had beenid


    out by Madam Ye.


    A wonderful rtionship would not be as pleasant as it used to be in the past with such torment.


    Mango’s expression was dejected. It was obvious that she was still experiencing heartache.


    Bettany thought for a moment andforted her in a low voice, "If you can''t understand such an


    abstract thing like your feelings, stop thinking about it. Look at Wisdom in your arms. He''s no loner a


    normal child. You should think about him.”


    Mango immediately raised her head, and her eyes were filled with doubt.


    Bettany said with pity, "How did such a perfectly healthy child get tormented into autism? If not for


    his love for you, he might never be able to ovee it. He is only in contact with the both of us


    now, and he doesn''t have any feelings for others. This is not a good sign. This child is only four


    years old, and he still has a long life ahead of him. What happens if this situation continues?"


    Mango immediately felt upset.


    She caressed Wisdom''s head and wanted to say something, but she couldn''t even do such a


    simple thing. She let out a muffled groan as her actions affected her wounds.


    Wisdom''s hearing was very sharp.


    He raised his head instantly and stretched out his hand to pat Mango''s back lightly. He lowered his


    head and blew on Mango''s broken arm as if it could alleviate her pain.


    Mango''s eyes started to tear up again.


    "Save him!”


    Mango opened her mouth. Although she did not make a sound, she knew that Bettany could


    understand what she mouthed.


    Shaquille sighed and said, "He''s my disciple, so I''ll definitely help him, but there are some things I


    can'' t solve an outsider. It''s obvious that Wisdom experienced great trauma that led him to this


    situation. It might take a long time for him to recoverpletely, and he also needs an absolutely


    quiet environment. The Underground City and Nathaniel have had disputes recently, and everyone


    around has been affected. If I weren''t Jigsaw''s wife, I would have also been affected. I am already


    nning to leave. If you want, I can take Wisdom with me, but are you really willing to leave this


    ce? Mango, if you want to meet Nathaniel, I can take you to him. He is here!"


    Mango''s eyes narrowed and she clenched her hands together tightly.


    Nathaniel was here?


    So, he was in A City! But could she see him? Was it necessary to do so?
