Chapter 785


    "Auntie, aren''t you going to answer the call?"


    Mango asked curiously.


    "It''s just an advertiser''s number and it doesn''t matter if I don''t answer it as there are many annoying


    calls like this these days as you know. Anyway, I won''t invite you in as I really want to rest now."


    Sophia said with a smile but the hint of aversion was evident in her eyes.


    Mango had doubts deep down but she didn''t ask about it further since Sophia didn''t want to talk


    about it.


    "Alright, I''ll go back now and you can call me at any time if somethinges up."


    "Alright."


    Then, Mango turned around and left.


    Sophia entered the house and closed the door as soon as Mango got in the car.


    At that moment, Mango found this strange.


    She didn''t feel good about it.


    Why would Sophia not allow her own niece to enter her house even though she was tired?


    Nevertheless, Mango shook her head as she felt that she was overthinking and everything that had


    happened must have been a big blow to Sophia. Perhaps Sophia really needed a rest and to spend


    some time alone.


    Mango drove straight to the hospital at the thought of this.


    Then, she met Nathaniel at the hospital entrance.


    "Nathan, get in the car and I''ll take you home!"


    Mango stuck her tongue out at Nathaniel cheekily.


    Nathaniel was stunned but he smiled and got into the car.


    "Didn''t you send your Auntie home? I thought that you would apany her for a while there."


    Nathaniel fastened his seat belt and he enjoyed being the co-passenger as he didn''t have to drive.


    Mango sighed and said, "I do want to keep herpany but she doesn''t let me do so and she kept


    telling me to leave, so I guess that she must have been really tired as she closed the door even


    before I left. Also, she turned off her phone immediately when someone called her as she didn''t


    want to answer it, though I agree that it has really been a bad day for her. So many things


    happened at once and I guess no one would be able to take it especially after she knew about her


    medical condition."


    "What''s wrong with her health?"


    Nathaniel asked casually after hearing Mango''s words.


    "Someone poisoned her with a long-standing toxin and a huge amount has umted in her


    body. Genevieve said that it''s really difficult to treat her as the doctors might not even be able to


    cure herpletely and there might be potential aftereffects."


    Mango told Nathaniel everything that she knew.


    Then, Nathaniel pondered before he said, "Well, it''s unfortunate that the situation has turned out as


    such but we have already done our best and you shouldn''t worry yourself too much about it. You''ve


    spent a lot of effort on this and you should really take a rest and rx now that Delh has been


    arrested while Cyrus is under surveince."


    "Yeah, as for Walter and Henry..."


    "I have already settled everything and Walter decided to fulfill Novalee''sst wish by letting Henry


    work in ourpany. Also, Walter would surely not abandon Henry if something happens to him


    and I''m back now as they are going to bury Novalee."


    Nathaniel touched Mango''s cor as he said with a smile, "Let''s buy some ingredients and I''ll go


    home to cook for you, okay? It has been a long time since Ist cooked for you."


    "Are you sure you''re free? Are you not busy with yourpany''s affairs? I guess you''ll have to


    handle more tasks during this period of time as Delh''s matter has been a big blow to Thomas and


    he is also not in a good mood today. I am worried that..."


    "Alright, Mrs. Ye, you''re worried about so many issues but can''t you be more concerned about me?


    My business affairs are endless but I''ll let Thomas have a break as he hasn''t applied for his annual


    leave for many years, so don''t worry as he will get over it soon. Besides, Rainie will be by his side


    so you can rest assured. Let''s not think or worry about these issues today and spend a romantic


    night with just the both of us together, deal?"


    Mango couldn''t help butugh when she saw Nathaniel''s resentful expression.


    "What if I tell you that I miss our kids?"


    "Mango, you''re doing this deliberately, aren''t you?"


    Nathaniel''s brows were tightly furrowed but there was a smile on his face.


    Mango beamed and said, "No, I didn''t as I really miss Rita and Wisdom, so can''t we bring them


    back?" "Anything you say, but I''m really frustrated as it seems so difficult for us to spend time


    together without anyone else around."


    Mangoughed again after hearing Nathaniel''s words.


    "Aren''t you tired of spending your time only with me after so many years?"


    "I will never get tired of being with you for the rest of my life."


    "Come on, stop it with your sweet-talk."


    Mango pushed him away with a smile before she started the engine and drove the car towards the


    nearby supermarket.


    At that moment, Mango felt that she could finally take a break for a few days now that the issue had


    come to an end and it was also time for her to get focused as she was nning to participate in the


    designpetition.


    The two of them went to the supermarket like any other married couple but everyone kept ncing


    at them because of their lovey-dovey interactions.


    However, Mango didn''t care about it at all as she held with Nathaniel''s arm while picking the


    ingredients that she needed.


    "Let''s buy some chicken wings as Rita likes eating fried wings with Coca-C." "We should stop


    letting Rita eat meat as she''s about to be a little fat pig. Aren''t you afraid that your daughter


    might not get married in the future?"


    Nathaniel knew that Mango was doting on Rita as she wanted to make up for the past four years


    that she wasn''t with her. However, Nathaniel felt that Mango was spoiling the kids too much in terms


    of meals.


    Mango stopped her actions as she looked at Nathaniel and asked in an aggrieved tone, "Are you


    not able to raise your daughter?"


    "It''s not that I can''t raise her and it''s definitely not a problem for me to look after her for the rest of


    my life if she doesn''t want to get married since she''s my little lover after all. However, it''s really


    unhealthy for her to eat and drink so much. Mango, I know that you feel guilty for Rita and I feel the


    same too but we have to be more rational. Let''s provide her a well-bnced meal from today on,


    okay?"


    Nathaniel discussed with Mango.


    Then, Mango nodded her head.


    "I don''t think that our daughter likes eating vegetables though."


    "We should still give it a try and you should add more greens to her meals regardless."


    Nathaniel put some broli and vegetables into their basket after seeing that Mango came to terms


    with him.


    Later, they went to pay the bill after getting all the ingredients that they needed.


    Soon, Mango and Nathaniel arrived at the Hans family''s house and they could hear Rita''s and


    Wisdom''s loudughter from outside.


    Mango''s expression softened at that instant.


    "Looks like they''re having fun with the Hans family."


    "I can''t believe that the two masters of the Hans family actually know how to look after kids."


    Mango nudged her elbow against Nathaniel''s after hearing what he said.


    "What are you saying? They are my uncles and you should show them some respect."


    "Okay... They are just a few years elder than me though."


    "They are still your elders even if they''re only one year older than you as you married me, but you


    could also choose your wife again..."


    Mango acted as if she was willing to discuss with Nathaniel if he wanted to choose a different


    partner.


    However, Nathaniel stopped arguing with her immediately.


    "Honey, I was wrong."


    Nathaniel learned from his employees'' experiences that it would never be wrong to apologize first.


    Indeed, Mango startedughing.


    "You''re really bing like a submissive husband... Aren''t you afraid that others might gossip


    about you?"


    "What''s there to be afraid of? Submissive husbands often have a wholesome family and it''s surely


    my wish to live such a life."


    Mango felt that Nathaniel became really good at sweet-talking as every word that he said could


    make herugh uncontrobly.


    "You shut up."


    "Yes, my dear wife."


    Mango guffawed once again as she saw Nathaniel''sical expression.


    "Nathaniel, that''s enough as this type of attitude doesn''t suit your image."


    "I''ll do anything as long as you''re happy... Don''t you know that I love seeing your smile every day


    and all other things are not as important to me at all?"


    Mango''s face turned red at that instant.


    "Fine, fine, I know that you love me the most, so stop saying that as we''re meeting our children


    soon. You''re talking so much that I''m getting out of breath because of myughter."


    "Is it that funny?"


    Nathaniel had an innocent expression on his face.


    At that moment, Mango felt really warm and happy.


    "Alright, let''s get in as my uncle is going to prepare dinner soon and it''ll be toote for us."


    Mango pulled Nathaniel and they walked into the house.


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    Terrance and Mateo were stunned when they saw Mango and Nathaniel entering the house


    together.


    "Are you guys going to have dinner here?"


    "No, no, uncle, we''re here to bring our kids home."


    Mateo was taken aback after hearing Mango''s words.


    "Home? Isn''t this your home?"


    Nathaniel''s expression darkened at that instant.


    "Uncle, this is her parents'' home and not hers. I''m bringing my children and wife back to the Ye


    Family''s ce as Mango has been here for a long time and we must have troubled you. Uncle, let''s


    have a meal together some other day and I''ll host."


    Mateo snorted coldly after hearing Nathaniel''s words and he said, "Who wants to have a meal with


    you? Besides, what''s wrong with Mango being at her parents'' house since the Hans family is really


    wealthy too? The Hans family''s house is also Mango''s home! She''s only been back for a few days


    and you even took her back for two nights...l didn''t evenin about it."


    Nathaniel was increasingly displeased the moment he heard what Mateo said as he felt as if they


    were snatching his wife away from him.


    "Uncle, you must''ve mistaken as Mango is now married and it''s not a good idea for us to stay at her


    parents'' house for long."


    "What''s wrong with that? Many men who got married to their wives live in their partner''s parents''


    house every day too. "


    Mango hurriedly voiced out after hearing what Mateo said.


    "Uncle, Rita and Wisdom are about to start school and they shouldn''t stay at home for too long as if


    they are on a vacation, isn''t it? They need to attend school soon or else they won''t be able to keep


    up with the courses. Nathan and I are saying that it''s better for us to take them back so that we can


    discipline them." "It''s also not a bad idea for them to stay here as I can send them to school and


    they enjoy mypany a lot too. Aren''t you participating in the designpetition? You should


    stay here as the children will disturb you if you take them back. Nathaniel can live here for a few


    days too if he wants as we wee him."


    Nathaniel sensed a strong trace of reluctance and aversion from Mateo''s words.


    "Uncle, that''s not a good idea..."


    "What''s wrong with that? I don''t even mind you having a free meal here."


    Mateo rolled his eyes at Nathaniel.


    Nathaniel felt so frustrated and helpless at that point.


    All of a sudden, he couldn''t spend as much time as before with his wife after Terrance''s and Mateo''s


    appearance.


    Terrance noticed Nathaniel''s shriveled expression and he said with a smile, "Mateo, stop trying to


    let Mango and the kids stay as she''s all grown up now and she''s bound to leave our house. It''s so


    obvious from her expression that she''s anxious and uneasy right now, don''t you see it? Just ept


    it, Mateo, we are dying to have Mango live at home but she has already be the daughter-in-


    law of the Ye family."


    Mango''s face turned red with embarrassment at


    that instant.


    Nathaniel said to Terrance with a smile, "Terrance, you are really open-minded."


    "Open-minded? Well, you should consider having the Hans family take over the southern


    development project if that''s the case.


    Terrance struck while the iron was hot and Nathaniel was stunned on the spot.
