Chapter 970


    His familiar scent immediately enveloped Mango.


    Mango subconsciously wanted to push him away, but Nathaniel held her hands tightly in his arms.


    "Hey..."


    Mango raised her head slightly. The corner of her lips brushed Nathaniel''s thin lips, causing them to


    tremble with excitement.


    Nathaniel''s eyes darkened, and he swallowed a gulp down his throat. He suddenly held Mango''s


    head and gave her a domineering kiss. Mango felt her toes curling at how good it felt!


    Mango gave herself to Nathaniel in the end. They werepletely immersed in their passionate


    kiss.


    After that heated kiss, Mango went to the bathroom to take a bath.


    Nathaniel stared at Mango''s back. This was the first time that he had felt at ease since she had left


    him.


    Warm water sshed down Mango''s body. Her passion for Nathaniel was there, but she still felt


    disturbed by the secret that Nathaniel kept her away from. After all, she could not pretend that it had


    never happened, no matter what.


    If Nathaniel really had nothing to do with that woman, why was he afraid that she would find out his


    secret?


    Why did the woman die?


    Mango felt that her rtionship with Nathaniel wasplicated because she couldn''t let go of this


    issue. Thus, she couldn''t help but sigh.


    When she came out, a gleam shed in Nathaniel''s eyes.


    "When will you go back to Ocean City?"


    "I''m not nning to go back."


    Mango flipped her hair.


    Nathaniel found the hairdryer. Then, he came over to hold her long hair.


    Mango paused for a moment, but she did not stop him.


    This was what Nathaniel used to do before. He would blow Mango''s hair while she leaned on the


    bed with her eyes closed. However, no one knew what she was thinking now.


    Mango''s hair was very smooth and silky.


    Nathaniel had always liked her long hair, and he felt satisfied as he ran his fingers between her hair.


    "Are you not mad at me anymore?"


    "Well, I''m not sure. Maybe I still am. Perhaps I was never mad at you, and I just wanted to know the


    reason. Nathaniel, no matter what, you should stop hiding it from me. Although I believe you have


    not cheated on me, can you tell me what happened between you and the woman?"


    Mango suddenly opened her eyes.


    Nathaniel''s heart skipped a beat, and he said in a deep voice, "Didn''t I tell you? I asked her


    something, so we got together during that time. However, I never expected her to have feelings for


    me."


    "What was it about?"


    This was the most important question.


    Nathaniel whispered, "It''s about mypany."


    "Hah! I guess you still don''t want to tell the truth."


    Mango suddenly felt a little disappointed and upset. The two of them had just be one, but now


    they grew distant with each other because of this matter.


    "I need to tune the zither. If you want to sleep here, go ahead."


    Mango pulled back her long hair and wrapped herself in her pyjamas before heading to the study


    room.


    She did not ask Nathaniel to leave.


    However, Nathaniel did not know what to feel right now.


    When Mango reached the study room, her mind was nk.


    She thought about the matter, but she could not find any clues. Then, she thought of Lebanon.


    Why did an A-lister suddenly pay attention to her?


    Did Nathaniel and Lebanon know each other?


    Mango knew Lebanon''s personality well. So, why didn''t he speak up when someone had beaten


    him up out of the blue?


    It was probably because he knew who had beaten him up, and he was familiar with Nathaniel too!


    However, Nathaniel had a powerful background. If Lebanon had been a normal person, he would


    drop this issue and forget about it easily.


    Mango was searching for valid reasons inside her brain, but she could not find a reasonable one.


    She was not narcissistic enough to say that Lebanon had fallen in love with her at first sight.


    Besides, this was not very likely to happen. After all, Lebanon was quite handsome, and he had met


    many gorgeous women. So, why would he be interested in a married woman?


    Mango felt that she needed to figure this out.


    Perhaps Lebanon knew the dead woman?


    Upon thinking of this, Mango immediately became alert.


    If her guess was correct, what rtionship did Lebanon have with that dead woman?


    Did he look for Mango to deal with Nathaniel?


    Perhaps he wanted to get revenge on Nathaniel because thetter had killed that woman?


    Mango furrowed her brows.


    She picked up her phone and sent a message to Rainie.


    "Are you asleep?"


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    "Not yet. Did Nathaniel leave?"


    Rainie sent a naughty emoji.


    Mango''s face turned red and hot.


    Rainie was quick-witted.


    "No, he''ll probably sleep here tonight."


    "Uh- oh! Poor me, you''re gonna leave me alone again."


    Mango felt that Rainie''s replies were hrious.


    "Stop joking around. I want to ask you something."


    "Go ahead."


    Mango paused for a moment before typing on her phone, "Do you still remember the woman that


    was having an affair with Nathaniel? Um... She''s dead now. I want to ask if anyone you know can


    help me to investigate her identity and background."


    Rainie frowned slightly.


    "Can''t you get Desmond to do this for you?" "I don''t want to get my people involved in this." Rainie


    immediately understood Mango''s words. Mango did not want to let Nathaniel know that she was


    looking into this matter.


    "You still can''t get over that?"


    "Well, yeah. I think that I''m missing something important. Besides, a big shot like Lebanon came


    looking for me suddenly. Don''t you think it''s strange?"


    "You suspect that Lebanon has something to do with the dead woman?"


    Rainie was aware of the meaning behind Mango''s words.


    Mango nodded, "Yeah, that''s my guess. But I guess we''ll only find out the truth after investing it.


    However, I don''t want Nathaniel to know about this."


    Rainie understood what Mango was trying to say. "Do you think Nathaniel is hiding something from


    you?"


    "Yes."


    "Well, since he wants to hide it from you, I don''t think we can find out anything. You might as well


    ask him directly."


    Mango face darkened.


    "I did, but he refused to tell me anything."


    Rainie was upset.


    If Mango couldn''t even get a clue from Nathaniel, this was most likely an extremely serious matter.


    Perhaps it had something to do with Mango too. If that was the case, should Rainie continue to help


    Mango investigate this problem?


    Rainie hesitated.


    "What? You don''t want to help me too?"


    Mango was able to sense Rainie''s thoughts even though they were only texting.


    "No, urn...I think that if Nathaniel doesn''t want you to know about it, maybe it''s for your own good.


    Why do you have to find it out? Perhaps the truth is something that you can''t ept."


    "No matter what the consequences are, I have the right to know the truth."


    Rainie immediately understood after reading Mango''s reply.


    "Well, I get it. I''ll ask my friend to help investigate "Thank you very much."


    this matter."


    After putting down her phone, Mango looked at the room where Nathaniel stayed with mixed


    feelings.


    The next day, Mango brought her zither to Polygon Spartial Building.


    She immediately asked someone to throw away the broken strings of the old zither. Then, she took


    out her zither, which cost her one hundred thousand dors.


    The whole team suddenly became silent.


    Everyone here had been in the music industry for a long time, so they naturally recognized the


    value of Mango''s zither.


    They did not expect that Mango would be willing to spend so much money.


    Mango sat down and took out the stave. She then yed the zither, and the sound was very


    pleasing to the ear.


    She yed the music quickly and turned a blind eye to her surroundings.


    The expressions of the other team members changed.


    When Ares arrived, he saw Mango''s zither immediately.


    "Ms. Shen, this is..."


    "Oh! Ares, I think the tone of this zither is better. When the album is outter, I will gift this to the


    team."


    Ares was astounded upon hearing Mango''s words.


    He could tell the value of this zither at only a nce. Now that Mango had said that she would give


    it to the team, he was instantly filled with excitement.


    "Ms. Shen, are you serious?"


    "Of course! Just take it as a token of appreciation to you for teaching Rainie."


    Mango said with a faint smile.


    "Wow! You''re too generous. Rainie is a talent, and I''m also someone who cherishes talent."


    Ares was jovial.


    When other people saw Ares'' reply, they did not dare to say anything.


    Thus, she had settled this problem immediately. However, when Mango was in the washroom, she


    heard two people gossiping about her.


    "Do you see that? Mango is so rich that she bought that super expensive zither for our team. Is she


    trying to brag about how rich she is?" "Bah! She''s trying to curry favor with Ares! Who


    knows if Pinksy will return in the future? Urgh! She''s only trying to establish a good image for


    herself."


    Mango did not take their words to heart.


    No matter what, she would be criticized in the workce because she was still a neer. As long


    as these people did not bully her, she would turn a blind eye to it.


    When Mango thought about this, she opened the toilet''s door and went to wash her hands as if


    nothing had happened. This startled the two people who were gossiping about her.


    When they saw that it was Mango, the expressions on their faces were grave.


    After washing her hands, Mango walked past them as if they did not exist.


    Both of them were infuriated, and they scrunched their faces.


    "Hah! What''s there to brag about? Isn''t she only a little richer than us?"


    "Yeah you''re right. I just happen to be rich. If you have the money, I don''t mind youpeting with


    me!"


    When Mango walked to the door, she stopped. Then, she turned around and gave them a brilliant


    smile. However, her words only enraged the two people.


    After saying this, Mango left immediately.


    Mango only became a zither yer here to help Rainie, so she nned to ignore everyone else.


    However, if they went overboard, Mango would not mind teaching them a lesson.


    After returning to the team, Rainie quickly pulled Mango to herself and said, "Why did you take so


    long? Did someone bully you?"


    "Do you think I''m being bullied?"


    Mango''s question was not too loud. However, everyone paused for a moment after hearing her


    words.


    Suddenly, they could hear knocked. Then, the door opened, and four people came in while carrying


    a few boxes.


    "Hello everyone, these are the fresh fruits that Ms. Shen bought. These were recently imported from


    overseas, so please have a taste."


    Mango was confounded.


    Ms. Shen?


    Was it her?


    When did she buy fresh fruits for the team?


    These fruits were definitely expensive!


    The other members of the team were also surprised.


    When Mango saw that everyone was staring at her, she did not know what to say. Then, the


    workers who carried the boxes stepped forward and said respectfully to Mango, "Ms. Shen, we''ve


    already delivered the items. Enjoy the fruits!"


    After that, they left.


    Mango waspletely dumbfounded!
