    "Me."


    Mango was stunned when Lebanon said this. In fact, she couldn''t believe what she was hearing!


    "What?"


    "I said, she''s in my hands right now. Well, I actually asked Alfred to do this, so he died because of


    it."


    Lebanon let out a bitter smile.


    Mango''s brain couldn''t process all the information that she was hearing right now.


    "But... why? Do you have a grudge against Gise?"


    "Sort of."


    Lebanon answered in an ambiguous manner. He looked at Mango, then pointed on his watch and


    said, "It''s almost time for you to board the ne. So what do you n to do now? Are you going to


    leave?"


    Mango''s brows furrowed after hearing this.


    Alfred had kidnapped Gise, and he had tied her up in Ango! Mango was surprised to hear this,


    but she was even more stunned because of Lebanon. What was he nning to do now?


    "Did you make a deal with Nathan?" "Yes, I did."


    Lebanon did not hide it from Mango, and he just said in a low voice, "Nathaniel promised me that he


    would allow you to meet my mother if I help him settle the visa and handed Gise over to him."


    "Your mother?"


    What kind of agreement was this?


    On the other hand, Lebanon nodded solemnly. There were some mixed emotions in his gaze which


    Mango couldn''t understand.


    "I can promise you this, but I want you to hand over Gise to me on behalf of Nathaniel. Is this


    okay?"


    "Of course!"


    Lebanon had no objection to this.


    He had caught Gise for her sake in the first ce. Therefore, she could take Gise away


    anytime she wanted.


    "But aren''t you going back to Ocean City now?"


    Mango was in a dilemma.


    "Yes. But..."


    "You can go back to Ocean City first. I will pass Gise to Nathaniel''s men and get them to bring her


    back to Ocean City for you to punish her. We can talk about the terms after you finish settling your


    problems there."


    Lebanon waved his hands after he finished his words as if he wanted to chase Mango out of the


    house.


    However, Mango couldn''t understand what Lebanon meant and what kind of person he was.


    After all, Lebanon had been devastated after Alfred''s death, and Nathaniel was one of the suspects


    in that case. Therefore, if she was in his shoes, she would never help her nor hand Gise over to


    her.


    Lebanon seemed to treat her too well.


    "Why are you so nice to me?"


    Mango did not want to ask this question, but she could not resist it. However, she felt like a fool after


    asking it.


    Lebanon was also slightly stunned after hearing her question.


    He had grown up in an environment filled with deception and lies, so he had never seen anyone as


    straightforward as Mango.


    He couldn''t help but nce at Mango and say in a low voice, "Perhaps I think you''re a person that I


    can get along with."


    What kind of reason was that?


    Mango did not understand what he was saying, but she did not dare to ask further.


    Lebanon had always been mysterious. Therefore, she felt that she had to stay away from him as


    she did not know what his intentions were.


    "Well, goodbye then."


    Mango turned around and left after saying that.


    There was a trace of loneliness on his face when he saw Mango leaving.


    The room was empty, and he felt extremely chilly as the cold wind blew in from the window that


    Mango had opened.


    He closed the window, but suddenly, he noticed that there was another person in his apartment.


    "Your Highness, it''s time for you to go back."


    Lebanon was upset, but he didn''t say anything else.


    Yes, it was time to return.


    He had escaped and lived in peace about four years, but he had paid the price for this using Alfred''s


    life. Therefore, he owed Alfred too much right now.


    "Have you investigated Alfred''s case? Who''s the one behind this?" The man in ck lowered his


    head and said respectfully, "ording to my sources, Prince Lexis is the one behind this."


    "Hah! Lexis actually teamed up with Bernard? Unbelievable!"


    A sharp gaze shed through Lebanon''s eyes.


    On TV, he had always acted like a boy next door while giving off a polite and refreshing vibe. Thus,


    people always found him friendly and approachable. However, now that he was trying to regain his


    real identity, he could no longer act like that anymore.


    "Get someone to hand over Gise to Nathaniel''s men. Also, protect them well when they pass her


    over to Mango in Ocean City. Tie up any loose ends here so that we can return to Ango. Heh. My


    siblings must have forgotten about me since I''ve not gone back for a long time. I should meet up


    with them, right?"


    Lebanon sneered.


    The men in ck immediately carried out his orders.


    Lebanon paused and said, "Contact the people in the police station to allow Mango to meet


    Nathaniel. I don''t want her to be worried and sad when she leaves."


    "Alright."

    Lebanon returned to the room after he instructed the man.


    Mango came by Lebanon''s car. Now that Lebanon wasn''t leaving, she would miss her flight if she


    walked there!


    She wanted to take her phone to find an app to call for a taxi. However, she realized that she had


    left her phone in Emberly''s car!


    Urgh! How could she be so unlucky today?


    While she was trying toe up with a solution, a man dressed in ck came out of Lebanon''s


    apartment and walked to her side.


    "Miss Shen, Mr. Fang asked me to take you there."


    "Alright."


    Mango nodded in response.


    Well, it looked like Lebanon still had a conscience.


    She went into Lebanon''s car, and the man in ck started to drive.


    Mango did not want to know his name, so she just directly closed her eyes to rest.


    Her back hurt as her wound was burning.


    F*ck, she had to get her revenge for these threeshes!


    She wanted Bernard or whoever was behind this to pay the price!


    Mango sat quietly and took a deep breath. She only felt a bit better after doing this.


    The car was speeding.


    Mango knew how long it would take for her to get from Lebanon''s apartment to the ce that she


    had stopped her car. So, she knew that she would not make it on time.


    She opened her eyes suddenly and couldn''t help but became alert when she realized that this


    wasn''t the road to the airport.


    "Hey! Where are you taking me to?"


    "Mr. Fang asked me to bring you to the police station to meet Mr. Ye."


    Mango was stunned when she heard what the man in ck said.


    "Huh? Wait...you''re bringing me to meet Nathaniel?"


    "That''s right."


    Mango was absolutely stunned!


    Even Ned did not have the authority to allow her to meet Nathaniel, so how did Lebanon manage to


    do so?


    Furthermore, the police had arrested Nathaniel because they suspected that he had killed


    Lebanon''s manager!


    Why was Lebanon helping her? Or why was he helping Nathaniel?


    Mango couldn''t understand.


    Then, the man in ck never said anything else, and Mango did not ask any further questions.


    There were many questions in her head, but she couldn''te up with any answers. Perhaps


    Nathaniel would have the answer to all these questions.


    Mango wasn''t sure about that.


    Oh, well! She would definitely miss her flight then!


    "Can you lend me your mobile phone?"


    The man in ck quickly handed his phone to Mango.


    Mango called Emberly as soon as she got the phone.


    "Emberly, you can leave with Rainie first. I have something to deal with, so I will take the next flight


    back."


    "Are you alright?"


    Emberly was a little worried.


    "It''s okay. I just need to settle some personal affairs. Don''t worry."


    "Alright."


    Mango felt anxious for some reason after hanging the phone.


    She was about to see Nathaniel.


    However, she came in a hurry and did not bring anything for him. Furthermore, she did not know if


    he needed anything too. Thus, she was wondering whether she could buy some necessities for him


    before they arrived.


    While Mango was lost in her thoughts, the car arrived at the entrance of the police station.


    "Miss Shen, we''re here."


    "Thank you."


    Mango nodded and got out of the car.


    When she entered the police station, one of the officers brought her to where Nathaniel was


    detained.


    Mango looked at the small room and felt sad.


    "Why are you here?"


    Nathaniel jumped in shock when he saw Mango.


    "What are you doing here? You''re too careless! How could youe to a ce like this? You still


    have injuries on your body. What if you got infected... huh..."


    Mango directly ran into Nathaniel before he could finish his words. She then tiptoed and kissed


    Nathaniel to stop him from talking.


    What else could Nathaniel say with Mango in his embrace?


    He hugged her waist tightly and kissed her madly. In fact, he wanted to etch the memory of her and


    her scent in his mind.


    Mango was about to suffocate because of his tight embrace.


    She leaned in Nathaniel''s arms and sobbed, "Urgh! What the hell is going on?"


    Nathaniel knew that Mango had to be shocked and worried.


    "It''s not a big deal. Someone just set a trap for me. Don''t worry, I''m fine."


    "Don''t say that! You''re already inside the detention centre! Are you trying to scare me to death so


    that you can marry another woman? Huh?"


    Mango grabbed the cor on Nathaniel''s shirt and questioned him fiercely.


    Nathaniel suddenly smiled after hearing her words.


    He felt relieved as this meant that Mango was still rational enough to withstand the pressure of the


    current situation.


    Nathaniel was patting her head when he smelt blood.


    "Wait, did your wound ripped?"


    Mango stuck her tongue out and said in embarrassment, "Oops! I guess you''ve found out about it."


    "Mango Shen, don''t you know that you''re a patient?"


    "I do!"


    Mango said faintly when she saw Nathaniel''s trigger and stern expression.


    Nathaniel really did not know what to do once he saw her.


    "I''m really fine."


    "Then get out from here. Can you leave with me?"


    Suddenly, Nathaniel did not know how to answer her straightforward question.


    "Uhh... I still need to stay here for some time."


    "Then don''t bother about me."


    Mango only felt relieved after looking at Nathaniel from head to toe.


    "I n to go back to Ocean City to help you look after HY Group. Wait, technically, HY Group


    belongs to me. After all, you''ve already given me thispany."


    "Yeah, I think you should go back too because most of our men are there. Besides, I will be less


    worried too. But how about your wound?"


    This was what Nathaniel was worried about.


    Mango waved her hand indifferently and said,


    "Don''t worry, Emberly is following me." "That''s good."


    After saying that, Nathaniel looked at Mango, and his gaze softened.


    "Come here. I want to hug you."


    "Hey! This is the detention center. Are we allowed to hug?"


    Although Mango said this, she still walked over to him. Then, she directly sat on Nathaniel''sp and


    hugged his neck.


    "You''ve also kissed me already, so why are you stopping me from hugging you?"


    Nathaniel had calmed down a lot now that Mango was with him.


    "Look, I can''t go out now. You can do anything you want, but you must make sure that you''re safe,


    alright? If you''re risking your safety to clear my name, I''d rather you not do that at all."


    "Yes, yes, I get it. Urgh! Why are you nagging me so much today?"


    Mango sounded annoyed, but she was looking at Nathaniel all this time. In fact, she wanted to etch


    Nathaniel''s features into her mind.


    "Hm...l can''t resist you if you look at me like this."


    Nathaniel felt his body getting aroused.


    After all, his wife had always liked to seduce him after she had been injured.


    Suddenly, Mango asked seriously, "What''s going on between you and Lebanon?"
