Chapter 872
The parents of the Shen family indeed came back, but they were standing aside a woman while
ttering her as if they were ves.
"Gise, here, have some oranges..."
Mrs. Shen peeled the oranges and looked at the woman dotingly, but the woman said impatiently,
"Oh, can you stop offering it to me as I don''t want it? I''m not a kid! Where were you in the past and
why are you treating me so well now?"
Mrs. Shen was stunned after she heard what the woman said and a hint of sadness shed across
her eyes.
Mr. Shen couldn''t stand it anymore, so he whispered, "Gise, how can you be so rude to your
mother?"
"What''s wrong with my words? I''m already going easy on you even though you''ve lost me when I
was a child and you even raised someone else''s daughter. She is living such a good life right
now...but what about me? All these were supposed to be mine! Yet I''m sitting here like an outsider
now... How dare you expect me to be polite to you?"
Mango no longer felt happy as she was just now when she heard this and she recalled at that
instant the reason the Shen parents left. Also, the person before her was surely Gise Shen and
this woman was the one she saw in the picture that was hidden in her photo frame.
Hmm... Gise Shen?
Did she even change her surname?
That was to say, this woman was the Shen parents'' biological daughter?
Mango had mixed feelings deep down and she didn''t know whether to leave or to enter the house
now that she was standing at the entrance. Her parents were once extremely close to her yet they
seemed so unfamiliar to her at this moment.
On the other hand, Zion looked at Mango and he could tell that she was in a bad mood although
she didn''t say anything.
He took a deep breath before saying with a bright smile, "Grandpa and grandma, you are here?"
The Shen parents turned their heads the moment they heard Zion''s voice and they saw Mango
holding Zion''s hand at the entrance of the living room. They seemed awkward as they had no idea
when did Mango came home.
"Mango, you''re back? Come in and have a seat."
Mrs. Shen''s reacted in an instant as she quickly put down the oranges in her hands and called
Mango in.
At that moment, Mango felt as if she hadn''t returned to her own home but to the Shen family''s
house instead.
Nevertheless, she nodded with a smile and walked in with Zion.
Gise had been staring at Mango the entire time and when she saw that Mango was prettier than
her, she said out of the blue, "You did stic surgery, isn''t it?"
"Gise!"
Mrs. Shen nudged Gise''s sleeve hurriedly.
No one knew why did Mango do stic surgery, but the Shen parents were well aware of it. So,
Mrs. Shen immediately stopped Gise, who clearly wanted to mock Mango for her appearances.
However, Gise felt displeased.
"What''s wrong? Why are you nudging me! It''s obvious that she did stic surgery, so why can''t she
let others talk about it? You''re really treating her differently just because you raised her by your
side."
Mango felt heartbroken at that instant as Gise''s words truly hurt her deep down.
"Hey! Who are you to talk to my grandmother that
manner?"
Zion reprimanded Gise straightforwardly before Mango could utter a word.
Gise didn''t expect that a little boy would be so disrespectful to her when Mango didn''t even say a
word, so she snorted and said, "Humph! Why don''t you ask your grandma who am I?"
At that instant, the living room became pin-drop silent.
The Shen parents mentioned to Mango that they just went out to travel without telling the real
reason. So, they had no idea how to exin themselves now that they brought their biological
daughter back all of a sudden.
Mr. Shen also seemed awkward and embarrassed.
"Uh... Mango, she is Gise Shen."
Mr. Shen pondered for a long time before he said those few words.
"Oh."
Mango nodded with a faint smile and no one could tell from her gaze what she was thinking.
At that moment, Mr. Shen didn''t know what to say next and he looked at his wife to ask for help.
So, Mrs. Shen was awkward and she quickly poured a ss of water for Mango.
"Mango, have some water." "Alright."
Mango took a sip of water before sitting down on the sofa.
Then, they fell into an awkward silence again.
Gise felt really dissatisfied as the Shen parents merely mentioned her name without exining
anything else.
"What''s wrong? Why are you afraid of her? She may be Mrs. Ye, but she would probably just be a
trash collector if you didn''t raise her. Do you really feel so ashamed of me that you became a
mute?"
"Hey... uhm... Gise Shen, right?"
Mango felt displeased with her parents'' behavior deep down, but her expression became gloomy as
she couldn''t bear letting others disrespect her parents like that.
"Please sit down and we''ll talk as I know who you are."
"Huh? You know?"
Gise was surprised.
"Yes, I know that you are my parents'' biological daughter."
Then, the Shen parents stared at Mango and they were stunned the moment Mango said that.
"Mango, you..."
"Well, I''ve realized this a long time ago. I''ve already known what you''re up to from the moment you
left Ocean City with the excuse that you''re going for a vacation. I didn''t stalk the two of you, but I
identally broke the photo frame on my bedside table in my room when I went back to pack up
my stuff. Then, the item in it fell out."
The Shen parents had no idea how Mango felt deep down as Mango said it ndly with an
emotionless expression.
It seemed as if they could no longer see through Mango''s feelings ever since she was married to
Nathaniel.
In the past, Mango would tell them about her difficulties and have heart- to- heart talks with them,
yet at this moment, the Shen parents couldn''t grasp her expression. Mango seemed to be so calm
andposed all the time yet no one would dare to ignore her.
The Shen parents naturally knew what was in the picture frame and their faces turned red with
embarrassment after hearing Mango''s words.
"Mango, we didn''t hide it from you on purpose. We just wanted to go and have a look as we weren''t
sure about the news either back then."
Mrs. Shen was somewhat at a loss as she rubbed her hands and exined.
"Mom, have a seat. I don''t me you as you''ve raised me for so many years after all and it''s
understandable that you want to find your own children. I''m actually really happy for you."
Mrs. Shen let out a sigh of relief after hearing Mango''s words.
"It''s a relief that you aren''t ming us... Honestly, we are old and we didn''t think much about it
anymore, but we came to know all of a sudden that our daughter is still alive, so how can we not go
and look for her? She''s our biological daughter after all..."
Mrs. Shen became red-rimmed with tears as she spoke.
Mango knew that she wouldn''t have been able to grow up well in the Shen family if it weren''t for
Queena back then. Now, it was good news that the Shen parents had found their daughter.
"Mom, I understand."
"Are you sure? If you truly understand how they felt, why would you stay in the Ye family and enjoy
your life all alone while letting dad and mom going through the tedious journey? It''s been such a
long time and you didn''t even call your parents to ask how they are doing... I guess you''re just
different because you''re not their daughter."
Gise''s words were very harsh and Mr. Shen felt really angry at that instant.
"Gise, stop your nonsense. You should respect Mango as she''s a few years elder than you."
"Respect? She''s not worthy of my respect! She took away my parents and I had to grow up in an
orphanage while being bullied by others all the time. Also, she has been using my identity and she''s
even married to Nathaniel! Now, she''s the wealthiest and the most reputable woman in Ocean
City... She basically snatched away everything that belonged to me yet you''re asking me to respect
her? What are you thinking, seriously?"
At that instant, Mango frowned as Gise''s words were really sarcastic.
"I''m indeed raised by your parents, but the way I have lived the rest of my life is in no way affiliated
with you, and nor do my possessions belong to you. Gise Shen, you''d better mind your attitude as
the Shen family are schrs each generation."
"My attitude? Schrs? I would have been as elegant as you if I was raised in Shen Family. Don''t
speak for me when you didn''t even experience what I''ve been through. Well, if you think that I
deserved to be back, fine, but I want to live in this house from today on."
Mango''s brows furrowed when she heard Gise''s words.

"You want to live here?"
"What''s wrong? Are you reluctant to let me do so? You received my parents'' love when it should all
belong to me and you''ve been living in my room in the Shen family for over 20 years. Now, I just
wanted to stay in your house for a short while, yet you aren''t happy about it?"
Gise''s words were pure sophistry.
At that moment, Mrs. Shen was afraid that Mango would be angry, so she quickly said, "Mango, we
n to renovate the house as we want to make an extra room for Gise while leaving your room
as it is. However, Gise would have nowhere to live during the renovation, so we''re thinking of
letting her stay here for a few days. Don''t worry as it won''t take too long and we''ll bring her back
when it''s all done."
However, Mango was in a bit of a dilemma.
She didn''t mind letting Gise stay, but she had no idea how to deal with Pryce and his father''s
matter yet, so Gise might be in danger if she stayed here. It wasn''t easy for the Shen parents to
find their biological daughter and Mango wouldn''t be able to bear the responsibility if something bad
happened to Gise here.
So, Mango said in a low voice at the thought of this, "Mom and Dad, it''s not that I want to reject you,
but we''ve some issues at home recently and it''s not suitable for Gise to live here. How about I let
Gise live in the vi that I own in the suburbs? I''ll also send a few bodyguards and servants over
to take care of her, what do you think?"
The Shen parents didn''t mind it after hearing Mango''s suggestion, but Gise wasn''t happy about it.
"I''m not going anywhere and I''m staying here. Who doesn''t know that the Ye''s Mansion is the best
ce in Ocean City since it has more than a hundred years of history? The fact that I''m able to live
here boosts my reputation! Are you afraid that I might steal your man or your limelight? You''d better
bear in mind that everything here was supposed to mine... Mine!"
Gise was extremely arrogant.
Mango had the urge to beat her up, but she suppressed her emotions for the sake of her parents.
Nevertheless, Mango sneered when she saw her parents didn''t reproach Gise for what she said.
"Mom and Dad, do you have the same idea as well? Do you think that everything that I have now
belongs to Gise? Even my rtionship with
Nathan?"
The Shen parents were well aware of how Mango and Nathaniel''s rtionship sparked back then.
Now, they were stunned and felt embarrassed having heard Mango''s question.
"Mango, Gise was raised in a different environment, so she will inevitably speak in a crude
manner, so please don''t mind her."
However, Mango became speechless after hearing Mrs. Shen''s words.
She would be no different from Gise if she still refused to let her stay here, wasn''t it?
"Well, I don''t mind if she wants to live here, but I have to say, I will not bear the responsibility if
something happens here."
Having said that, Mango pulled Zion up before walking towards the bedroom and she no longer felt
ted as she was before.
As Gise was still talking in the living room, Mango didn''t want to listen anymore. At that instant,
she felt that the rtionship between her and her parents was about to end.
