    Chapter 877


    "I was saying that I haven''t prepared any gifts for my nephew although I''m his aunt."


    Gise grabbed Zion in a sh and covered his mouth before dragging him outside.


    "I''ll take him out and buy him some presents."


    Gise was about to drag Zion out of the house as she spoke.


    However, Zion immediately made a move and there was a hint of impatience in his eyes.


    "Ouch!"


    Zion grabbed Gise in return and pressed her on the doorframe in a sh before she could register


    what had happened.


    "Let me warn you, you''d better not touch me."


    Zion pushed her away and he nced at Mango as he said, "Sorry, mommy, I''ll go and pack up as


    Mateo will be here soon."


    "Alright, will you be having breakfast?"


    "Nope, Mateo said that I can have breakfast in the military base."


    Then, Zion nced at Mr. Shen meaningfully.


    Mr. Shen''s face turned red but no one could tell


    whether he was embarrassed or angry.


    "Uh... Mango, will you give Gise her clothes now so that she can change into them now? Dillon


    has a tight schedule and we can''t bete."


    In fact, Mr. Shen desperately wanted to leave this ce, but he had to wait for Gise.


    Mango didn''t know why Mr. Shen seemed so embarrassed, but she could tell from Gise''s attitude


    towards Zion that it must have something to do with her.


    However, Mango wasn''t in the mood to think about that right now.


    She handed the clothes to Gise.


    It was a simple yet elegant dress and it was the most recent design of the year.


    Gise had seen it in a magazine, but she couldn''t afford the dress as she didn''t have much


    savings. So, she felt happy yet jealous at the same time now that Mango had bought it for her.


    Perhaps everything that Mango owned now would belong to her if she had lived in the Shen family


    since she was young.


    Then, Gise took the dress and went straight back to her room without saying a word of


    appreciation.


    In the living room, Mr. Shen was left with Mango and he felt really awkward.


    "Mango, I''m sorry for causing you trouble. Gise has a bad temper as she had been bullied since


    she was young when she grew up in the orphanage, so please be more understanding towards


    her."


    "I know."


    Mango nodded her head.


    At that moment, she had a strong urge to give Mr. Shen the paintings, but she was afraid that he


    might feel embarrassed now that she saw his expression.


    So, Mango gave Mr. Shen a card after thinking it through.


    "Dad, one of my friends really wants to buy a painting from you, so could you spare some time to


    make one for him? I seldom ask for your help, but this friend of mine is really someone I cherish and


    I want to give him a present. So, could you do me a favor and draw him one painting? I have 5


    million dors on this card and it''s a deposit. I''ll pay you the remaining amount after my friend


    epts the gift, what do you think? I know that you enjoy arts simple- mindedly and never sell


    paintings, but could you just do me a favor this time?"


    Mr. Shen waspletely speechless as Mango said those words sincerely.


    He nced at the card before looking at Mango and he felt really conflicted deep down.


    The Shen family was facing an economic crisis and he had even invested in the stock market


    recently after hearing what others said. However, he fell into a trap and the Shen family was left with


    a bubble reputation. He had no idea how things would turn out if it weren''t for Nathaniel''s help all


    this while.


    It didn''t matter much if the Shen family only had the two of them as they could always be more


    modest in their spending. However, now that Mr. Shen had found his biological daughter, he didn''t


    have the heart to let her suffer and live a miserable life with them as she had lived a tough life


    throughout the years.


    Mango was rich, but Mr. Shen was old and he would feel really shameful if he were to ask for


    money from Mango directly.


    At this moment, he felt really uneasy deep down because of his ego and pride although he should


    ept Mango''s kindness now that she was giving him a good reason to do so.


    On the other hand, Mango was well aware of Mr. Shen''s personality, so she passed the card to Mr.


    Shen and said in a low voice, "Gise will be learning to y violin from a famous teacher and


    Dillon seldom recruit students, so are you not going to give him a worthy present? I know that you


    wouldn''t care doing such things, but isn''t it all for Gise? If she really became Dillon''s only student,


    she would have a good reputation in the high society with just her identity, isn''t it?"


    Mr. Shen finally gave in only when Mango exined that it was all for Gise.


    His pride and principles seemed to have be really insignificant because of his biological


    daughter.


    At this point, Mr, Shen was old and he had given his all to raise Mango, besides entrusting all his


    property to her as he had treated her as his own child wholeheartedly. It was only now that he


    realized that he had been raising another person''s kid. He really wanted to have his own biological


    daughter deep down although Mango was really filial to them.


    Now, Mr. and Mrs. Shen found Gise, but they had nothing to offer her and they couldn''t provide


    her a luxurious living environment. So, they thought of Mango and they wanted her to provide


    Gise a bright future. However, they knew that their intention was really shameful, so they couldn''t


    tell Mango explicitly and could only force Mango to let Gise live at her ce.


    Mr. Shen knew that Mango must have seen through their intentions and that she knew what they


    wanted, but she didn''t call them out. Instead, she went along with them and let Gise leave at her


    ce, so Mr. Shen felt really embarrassed at this moment.


    He was no longer able to face Mango.


    "Uh... I''ll go out and smoke a cigarette... Zion said that you''re pregnant, so I shouldn''t smoke before


    you."


    Mr. Shen got up before walking out and he thought about it for a moment before putting the card in


    his pocket.


    Mango let out a sigh of relief seeing that he had epted the card.


    In fact, she knew the Shen parents'' intentions and it was fine for her to go along with what they


    wanted. They had raised and educated her throughout the years and she just hoped that they


    wouldn''t go overboard at this moment.


    After all, the Ye family was really wealthy.


    Later, Gise frowned as she didn''t see Mr. Shen when she came out.


    "Where is he?"


    Gise was wearing the dress and Mango felt that she truly resembled Mr. Shen as she looked at


    Gise.


    She had the vibe of a youngdy from a respectable family, but her rude words would ruin her


    reputation.


    Then, Mango pointed outside and said, "He went outside to smoke."


    "He''s smoking again?"


    Gise frowned.


    "Anyway, I''m leaving now and I don''t know when I''ll be back, but don''t forget to leave me some food


    for lunch."


    Then, Mango nodded her head.


    "You can ask Susan to make some food just for you when youe back."


    "Are you not having lunch at home?"


    Gise looked at Mango in confusion and continued, "Where are you going? Mango, can you not


    stay outside all day long or at least bring me along when you leave the house? I feel really bored


    when I''m home alone."


    "I''m going to the hospital to see my kids and I don''t know when I''lle back, so you can eat by


    yourself first. I''ll take you out for a walk after I''m done with my work these days."


    Mango knew what Mr. Shen wanted and she would surely fulfill his wishes, but she couldn''t


    guarantee that Gise would be able to make a good impression.


    Nevertheless, Gise was pleased after hearing Mango''s words.


    "Alright, I got it, but I''m really in a hurry, so please get your work done as soon as possible."


    A hint of impatience shed across Mango''s eyes and she didn''t reply to Gise.


    On the other hand, Gise went out and she felt really displeased as Mr. Shen never entered the


    house again.


    Mango went to the kitchen to prepare some food after Gise left before going to the hospital.


    Nathaniel had sent Newell over to the hospital and Sisi was on her way, so she bumped into Mango


    at the hospital''s entrance.


    "Mrs. Ye, why are you here? Mr. Ye told me to go back to apany you."


    "I''m here to visit my kids, it''s okay."


    Mango passed the sk to Sisi and said in a low voice, "Bring it to my kids for them to eat. I''ll go


    visit Haniya to check if she has gotten better in the past few days."


    "I have been to Haniya''s ward and she''s recovering well, but she still can''t walk and it''ll probably


    take another hundred days before she can do so."


    Sisi said as she took over the sk.


    Nevertheless, Mango had already expected that to be the case deep down. She knew that it would


    take at least a hundred days for one to be able to walk again after a nerve injury.


    Sisi looked at Mango and asked hesitantly, "Mrs. Ye, Haniya is injured, but you should still have a


    nutritionist by your side. Mr. Ye mentioned that he''ll hire another nutritionist, but why did he employ


    another temporary maid? It''s not like we can''t afford a nutritionist."


    "I don''t like having too many people at home, so let''s talk about it again when Haniya recovers."


    Sisi became speechless after hearing Mango''s words.


    Then, she nodded and went to Wisdom''s ward with the sk while Mango went to Haniya''s room.


    Haniya was reading a book and she immediately struggled to get up when she saw Mangoing.


    "Mrs. Ye, why are you here?"


    "Please lie down and don''t move, I''ll sit beside you."


    Mango stopped Haniya in an instant.


    "Madam, I''m so sorry that you have toe and visit me despite your current physical condition..."


    Haniya scratched the back of her head as she felt embarrassed.


    However, Mango no longer felt upset the moment she saw Haniya.


    Her eyes were really bright and clear.


    "What''s there to feel sorry about? You''re injured because of me, so what''s wrong with meing to


    visit you? Anyway, are you reading? What book is it?"


    Mango asked as she saw that Haniya was holding a book in her hand.


    Then, Haniya handed the book to Mango and said, "It''s a book for a nutritionist and I n to use


    this period of time to study so that I can get a nutritionist license. I feel really ashamed for being by


    your side without a legit license and Doctor Bettany is teaching me too."


    "She''s teaching you?"


    Mango was a little surprised.


    She was well aware of Bettany''s temper and it seemed that Haniya was able to handle it.

    "If that''s so, you should learn well as Yama Hades never have students."


    "Alright."


    Haniya nodded immediately.


    Soon, Mango left after chatting with Haniya for a while as she saw that she was doing fine.


    However, she saw a poppy flower on her


    notebook.


    At that moment, she halted in her tracks.


    "What did you draw?"


    Mango did not expect to see a poppy flower drawing here.


    Haniya looked at what Mango was seeing, only to find that Mango was looking at her notebook.


    So, she quickly answered, "This is a poppy flower and it''s really beautiful, isn''t it? Doctor Bettany


    gave this notebook to me and I fell in love with the poppy flowers drawing the moment I saw it. Mrs.


    Ye, do you like them too?"


    At that instant, Mango''s heart skipped a beat.


    Bettany?


    Why would Bettany have a notebook with poppy flowers?


    Was it just a coincidence?


    Or did Bettany have something to do with the organization that used poppy flowers as their symbol?


    Mango''s brows furrowed and she felt as if everything around her had changed all of a sudden.
