Chapter 917


    "Boss, what are you..."


    His men couldn''t help but ask when they saw how Kolton was staring at Mango. They thought that


    he was interested in her, but he red at them.


    "I''m not interested in her. I was just..."


    Kolton did not continue speaking, but the corners of his mouth lifted into a smile slightly.


    Mango suddenly felt as if someone was looking at her. She immediately opened her eyes and


    looked directly into the camera.


    Both of their eyes met, and they stared at each other tensely.


    Mango faintly smiled and turned around to continue sleeping.


    Kolton had an upset expression on his face after seeing this.


    How cocky could this woman be?


    Did she really think that Kolton wouldn''t do anything to her?


    Look at her!


    Did she look like a hostage?


    She looked like she came here for vacation!


    "Tell Mango to clean up the warehouse."


    Kolton suddenly spoke.


    He was annoyed when she saw how rxed Mango was


    "Yes!"


    His men immediately went to carry out his orders.


    Mango was sleeping soundly when someone woke her up.


    "The boss asked you to clean up the warehouse. Here are your cleaning materials."


    Jad threw a broom and other tools right in front of Mango.


    This angered Queena.


    "Are you kidding me? My daughter is pregnant. Hah! How dare you let a pregnant woman do


    cleaning chores? Fine, if you''re only trying to humiliate us, I''ll do it!"


    "Mom, he asked me to go, so stop fighting. I''ll go."


    Mango did not really care.


    She ignored Queena''s objections as she picked up the broom and the rag. Then, she followed Jad


    to the warehouse.


    Although Kolton had called this ce a warehouse, it only contained pieces of cloths that could be


    used to make new clothes.


    Jad left after he brought Mango over.


    Mango looked around and found that the space was quite big, but it was a little messy.


    She had nothing to do as well, so she began to clean.


    There were many pieces of cloth and some old clothes. She didn''t know whether she should throw


    them away or not.


    Mango gathered the old clothes together. Suddenly, she saw a shirt covered with bloodstains.


    The clothes were probably old because the bloodstains on them were dark-coloured. Hence, she


    wouldn''t have spotted the dark stains if she did not look at the clothes closely.


    Mango''s brows furrowed slightly. She took the blood-stained clothes under her nose and smelled


    them. However, she could not smell anything.


    However, the clothes were torn.

    Whose clothes were these?


    Mango suddenly thought of Sisi'' mother.


    Could these clothes belong to her?


    If so, would Marrisa allow such a thing to happen under her nose?


    A million thoughts ran through Mango''s mind.


    However, she probably would not find an answer to her question


    Mango hid the bloodstained clothes and continued to clean the warehouse. However, she did not


    find anything else.


    After cleaning, she felt a little tired and sat on a chair to rest.


    Although it was called a warehouse, she did not find any clues, nor did she find a way to contact the


    outside world.


    The people on the ind could survive by eating the crops that they grew themselves.


    Mango became a little discouraged.


    She packed her things and walked out of the warehouse. She looked at the sunset hanging on the


    horizon. It appeared that she had stayed in the warehouse for an entire afternoon.


    Mango stretched and saw a few servants rushing towards the main hall.


    "What''s going on?"


    She stopped a servant and asked.


    The maid said anxiously, "Madam started suffering from vomiting and diarrhoea suddenly!


    What...what should we do? Our boss is about to kill someone!" "Vomiting and diarrhea?"


    Mango''s brows creased slightly.


    She followed the servant.


    Kolton was enraged, and his loud voice could be heard from all corners of the house.


    Mango had always thought that although Kolton was ruthless, he still gave off a refined and


    gentlemanly feeling towards others. But, right now, he was as furious as a tiger that had been


    provoked. He looked as if he was going to eat all of them alive!


    She looked at the basins that were being transported in and out of the room. It was filled with some


    nasty looking vomit that obviously belonged to Marissa.


    "Hey! Don''t you have a doctor on this ind? Why don''t you go out and find a doctor for her?


    Maybe she''s just having some food poisoning!"


    Mango opened her mouth.


    The room fell silent.


    Koiton''s eyes instantly turned towards Mango.


    "Why are you here?"


    "I was passing by, so I decided to take a look."


    Mango shrugged without any care.


    Koiton''s eyes narrowed slightly.


    "You just said that she was food poisoned? Were you the one who poisoned her? Get Mango!


    Now!"


    As soon as Kolton gave the order, Jad and the others immediately pinned Mango to the ground.


    What the f*ck?


    "Kolton, are you out of your mind? Even ordinary people can tell that she has food poisoning


    because she''s vomiting and having diarrhoea. Why would you think that I was the one who


    poisoned her because I pointed it out? F*ck! I was in the warehouse the whole afternoon. How


    could I poison her?"


    "You were practising the violin with her this morning. Who knows if you poisoned her at that time?


    Lock her into the basement. If I find out that you were the one who poisoned her, Mango, no matter


    whose wife you are, I won''t let you off the hook!"


    Kolton had gonepletely insane.


    Mango was taken away and thrown into the cold basement.


    "Kolton, you are a f*cking idiot!"


    She screamed repeatedly, but no one paid attention to her.


    Mango was tired from cursing at him and looked around the basement.


    The basement was sorge and spacious that she could hear her own echo, but there was no light


    at all in there.


    Mango was a little scared.


    "Hello, is...is there anyone here?"


    Mango shouted. However, she only heard her own echo in return.


    She shivered slightly and decided to find a ce to sit down. However, she never thought that she


    would find a cold corpse lying on the ground!


    "Ah!"


    Mango screamed and almost jumped up.


    She wasn''t a brave person, and it was dark in there, so she could barely see anything. But now, she


    was stunned because she had touched a corpse!


    "Be quiet."


    The corpse suddenly spoke, and Mango almost fainted.


    "Are...are you a human or...or a ghost?"


    "Haha, I also want to know the answer to that question!"


    The corpse suddenly moved.


    Mango quickly jumped back a few steps and hit her head against the wall by ident. The pain


    made her grit her teeth.


    The other person sat up. Mango could see her movements clearly as her eyes were already


    ustomed to the dark.


    "The ceiling is a little now, and the air is humid, so you have to bend a little to walk. If you''re tired,


    just sit down. There are a lot of pieces anyways.


    Mango rxed a little when she saw that the other party was speaking rationally.


    "Who are you?"


    "Who am I? Does that matter? Hah! I''m merely a living corpse in here!"


    The woman said leisurely.


    Mango gathered her courage and slowly sat down beside the woman.


    "Why is your body so cold?"


    "Well, perhaps if other people decided to experiment on you with drugs and lock you down here for


    a long time, you would probably be as cold as I am."


    The woman might not have spoken to anyone for a long time, so she answered all the questions


    Mango had asked.


    When Mango was sure that the woman was still alive, she waspletely relieved.


    "They were drugging you? Is it for Marrisa?"


    This was the only possibility that Mango could


    think of.


    The woman suddenly paused.


    "Huh? You know Marrisa Aiken?"


    "I just got to know her. They kidnapped me here yesterday, and Kolton was the one who brought me


    to see Marrissa because I could teach her music. Hah! However, she was vomiting and having


    diarrhoea today. So, Kolton thought that I was the one who poisoned her and threw me here."


    Mango briefly told her about what happened.


    The woman sneered and said, "Heh! He''s going insane because his love for Marissa had blinded


    him! He would me the people around him if anything happened to her. If she has a fever, it only


    happened because the people around her did not take good care of her. Everyone knows that


    vomiting and diarrhoea are symptoms of food poisoning, but he refuses to believe it! Why does he


    always think that people are trying to harm her? He''s thinking too much! Who would want to harm


    her anyway?"


    Mango listened to the woman''s words, and she felt as if thetter was very familiar with everything


    here. She immediately frowned and asked, "Who exactly are you? You seem to be very familiar with


    Kolton and Marrisa."


    The woman was slightly stunned and whispered, "My...name is Laney Ye. I used to be a friend of


    Marrisa. We grew up in the orphanage together, and Kolton brought us both together too."


    "Laney Ye?"


    Mango had never heard of this name before.


    She made a sound and asked in a low voice, "So you''ve been here with Marrisa all the time?"


    "Sort of. I haven''t really left her ce before."


    Laney said slowly.


    Mango hurriedly asked, "If that''s the case, can I ask whether you know this person?"


    "Who is it?"


    "I don''t know her name, but I know that she and Kolton have a daughter named Sisi. Do you know if


    there is such a woman here?"


    Just as Mango finished her question, Laney suddenly began to shake.


    "Si...si? You know her? Wait! Where are you from? Ocean City?"


    She grabbed Mango.


    Laney was skinny because of malnutrition. But, her fingers were not grabbing Mango''s elbows


    tightly.


    Mango felt a little pain, but she couldn''t understand Laney''s excitement.


    "What''s wrong ?"


    "Tell me! Are you from Ocean City?"


    "Yes, I''m from Ocean City. To be precise, I''m Sisi''s sister-inw."


    Mango revealed her identity.


    Laney suddenly burst into tears.


    "Sisi...my dear Sisi...? How is she doing now? Did Kolton manipte her into doing any evil


    deeds?"


    Laney''s words shocked Mango.


    "My...my dear Sisi? Are you her mother?"


    Mango would never have imagined that she would run into Sisi''s mother, Laney, here!


    She wanted to get closer to Laney to see thetter clearly, but the light was too dim.


    Mango suddenly remembered something. She quickly pushed Laney aside and reached for her


    pockets.
