Chapter 1005


    "Who’s over there?"


    Mango quickly ran over and saw a boy getting up from the ground. Apparently, he had fallen from


    the upper fence.


    He was slightly embarrassed when he saw Mango, so his face blushed red.


    "Aunt, I''m... I''m sorry. I didn''t pay attention, so I fell on the ground."


    The little boy was around eight years old, and he had a fair and adorable appearance. In fact,


    Mango would have thought the child standing before her was a little girl if he wasn''t dressed in


    female clothes!


    "Huh? Why are you on the fence of our house?"


    "Well... my house is just next door."


    The little boy exined.


    Mango did not know who Brantley''s neighbours were. However, they were all staying in the military


    compound, so the child had to belong to a family that served the army too.


    However, she had taken a liking to this boy at first nce.


    "What''s your name?"


    "I''m Bjorn Eaves."


    Bjorn answered.


    The surname Eaves'' was rare in Ocean City. Hence, Mango didn''t know which family the child


    belonged to, so she could only say, "I''ll send you back from the main entrance."


    "It''s alright. That''s not necessary."


    Bjorn waved his hand hastily in reply.


    Just then, they heard a young girl''s voice calling Bjorn from the other side of the fence.


    "Bjorn! Where did you go? Did you climb over the wall to find Rita again? I''m going to make a


    comint to daddy if you don''te back at once! Hah! Then, I''ll make him punish you to stand in


    military posture and stay in the military region. Then, he will never allow you toe back!"


    The corners of Bjorn''s mouth twitched when he heard her words.


    "Alright, alright, I''ll go now. Urgh! Your tattletale!"


    He replied reluctantly.


    Then, it was silent on the other end.


    However, Mango had obtained some useful information from the conversation of both the siblings.


    Huh?


    Did this handsome boye over here to look for Rita, her daughter?


    What was going on here?


    How did such a glutton like her daughter manage to find such a handsome boyfriend?


    At this thought, Mango immediately began evaluating Bjorn as if he would be her future son-inw.


    Suddenly Bjorn became somewhat uneasy at her gaze.


    "Aunty, I''ll leave first then!"


    He wanted to flee by climbing over the fence. However, Mango dragged him down by his cor.


    "Hey! Leave through the front door! You shouldn''t leave by climbing over the fence because that''s


    not what a gentleman would do!"


    "Okay, I promise not to do it again."


    Bjorn lowered his head in guilt and seemed ill at ease like a child who had made a grave mistake.


    Mango smiled in reply and said, "Did you not know that Rita''s not home? She went outdoors to do


    some sketching."


    Bjorn abruptly raised his head after hearing her reply.


    "I have been in the military region all this while. So, I only managed to return home today because I


    got a holiday."


    It turned out that he was in the same situation as her son, Zion.


    It seemed that this child had a promising future too. After all, he could survive in the military region


    at such a young age.


    Mango said with a smile, "Shall I get her to contact you when shees back?"


    "It''s alright, I''ll pay a visit to her when I''ve time."


    A faint smile appeared on Bjorn''s face, and the clear dimples on his face caught Mango''s attention


    immediately.


    Gosh! Which outstanding family did this child belong to?


    He was way too adorable!


    Mango was sure that he would be adies'' man in the future.


    However, she would never admit that he had caught her attention. Instead, her tone became even


    softer.


    "Let me send you home then."


    "Alright."

    Bjorn didn''t object to her offer at the moment.


    There were no other people at noon after all. While Mango was about to take Bjorn out of the living


    room, Toby was stunned for a moment.


    "Mr. Eaves?"


    "Huh? Do you know him?"


    Mango nced at Toby when she asked this.


    Toby nodded and said, "He''s the son of Captain Morgan."


    Upon hearing about the ''Morgan'' name, Mango seemed to remember something. Morgan was one


    of the four most influential people in Ocean City. Besides, he was also her husband, Nathaniel''s


    best buddy. However, she seldom saw him.


    When they first got married, Nathaniel was hectic all day long, and he did not know how he felt


    about Mango at all. Hence, he did not take her to the gatherings along with his buddies.


    Subsequently, she was forced to spend five years abroad because someone was harming her. By


    the time she returned, there were many problems that she had to solve. Therefore, she had never


    seen Nathanial hanging out with them.


    Now, she had seen some of his friends. She met Noah the most often, followed by Eugene.


    However, she never expected to see Morgan''s son here.


    The most important thing was that Morgan''s son was so handsome!!


    Mango added secretly


    When Bjorn saw Toby, he immediately saluted him respectfully.


    "Nice to meet you, Uncle Toby!"


    "Nice to meet you too!"


    Toby returned his salute as well.


    When Mango saw this, she started to look at Bjorn in a new light.


    Toby was no ordinary person. After all, he had worked for Brantley for so many years, so a lot of


    people had to be respectful to him.


    However, Toby was not only polite to Bjorn, but he also greeted him with the proper soldier


    etiquette. Thus, Mango could tell that Bjorn had a high ranking in the army.


    Bjorn was merely a seven-year-old child, yet he was already this aplished!


    Mango thought about this carefully, but she did not show any expression on her face.


    After sending Bjorn home, Mango begun to miss Zion even more.


    After all, Zion was her son and one of her sweethearts!


    While she was in deep thought, Mateo drove the military jeep over to pick her up.


    "Mango, my dear niece!"


    Mango''s mouth twitched when she heard how Mateo was addressing her.


    She felt a bit weird to have such a young uncle.


    "Let me go in and greet the exmander first."


    Mateo was about to get off the car, but Mango immediately stopped him.


    "Please don''t do so. My grandpa has just fallen asleep, so don''t bother him. Let''s leave quickly. I


    miss my son d*mn much."


    After saying that, Mango grabbed Mateo and got into the car.


    Mateo smiled faintly and started the car when she saw this.


    Mango had to admit that a man looked strikingly handsome in his military uniform.


    He was not only striking because of his appearance, but he carried an elegant and glorious aura


    around him because of his uniform.


    She couldn''t help but recall that Nathaniel used to serve in the army too. However, she had never


    seen a picture of Nathaniel dressed in a military uniform at home.


    "Mateo, let me ask you something."


    "What is it?"


    "Why are they no pictures of Nathan wearing his military uniform in our home?"


    Mateo thought that she was going to ask something else. Upon hearing this, he couldn''t help but


    say with a smile, "The military district has set up a rule that dictates that the military uniform should


    not be leaked outside of the militarypound. That''s why there are no pictures of them outside


    thispound, so you''ve never seen one."


    "Ah? What a pity! I still want to take a look at those photos of Nathan dressed in military uniform."


    Mango was feeling somewhat disappointed when she heard Mateo''s reply.


    However, Mateo said with a smile, "The photos of Nathaniel in military uniform are on the Wall Of


    Fame of the military district. You can take a lookter if you wish to. However, you can''t take


    pictures of it because that''s a rule."


    Mango immediately became excited upon hearing this.


    "Can I really see his picture?"


    "Of course!"


    "Yeah! Finally!"


    After all, Mango didn''t expect to get such a surprise when she decided to visit her son.


    When they were about to enter the military zone, a guard stopped the car. However, seeing that it


    was Mateo''s car, the guard saluted and said politely, "Captain Hans, you have to register your guest


    here before bringing her in."


    "Okay, she is Zion''s mother who came here to visit her son."


    Then, Mateo asked Mango to take out her identification card for registration.


    After that, the guard allowed their car to enter thepound.


    Mango smiled and said, "Haha! Uncle Mateo, it seems that this militarypound isn''t that difficult


    to enter."


    "You can give it a try next time. I bet you can''t enter it at all."


    Mateo answered her triumphantly.


    Mango curled her lips after hearing his reply, but she didn''t bother to argue with him either.


    Whenever she remembered that she was going to meet her son, she started feeling excited


    inexplicably.


    The car was supposed to stop in the reception room, but Mateo took Mango all the way to the Wall


    of Fame instead.


    This ce was designed specifically to hang the photos of soldiers that had received meritorious


    awards for their great contributions.


    After Mango got out of the car, her yful moodpletely disappeared, but a solemn and


    respectful expression reced it.


    Meanwhile, Mateo tidied up his clothes as soon as he got down from the car to show his respect to


    the heros.


    Mango followed suit, but she suddenly felt that she was an insignificant personpared to the rest


    of them.


    Once she followed Mateo to enter the heritage hall, Mango was dazzled by those photos of the


    soldiers on the wall. However, the picture of Nathaniel wearing his military uniform caught her


    attention immediately.


    Suddenly, she felt touched when she looked at it.


    She had imagined how Nathaniel would look in his military uniform countless times. However, she


    felt even more amazed now that she had seen his photo in person.


    She had always known that Nathaniel was attractive, though.


    However, Nathaniel looked even more dignified and respectable in his military uniform.


    His skin tone was obviously way darker at that time. However, he had a piercing gaze, as if he could


    read people''s minds.


    Thus, Mango was attracted to the picture of Nathaniel wearing the olive drab army uniform


    immediately!


    "Is this Nathan?"


    "Yeah. He was an outstanding soldier, but he asked for a career transition instead. Well, if I could


    guess, the higher-ups were pressuring him as well. Anyway, Nathaniel was quite well-known in the


    military region, so I guess Zion will have a hard time trying to make a name for himself."


    Mateo felt slightly distressed for Zion when she heard this.


    However, Mango said in a low voice, "Zion is Nathan''s son after all. I believe that my son will


    definitely be able to do it."


    "Just look through the photos, alright? You''re not allowed to take photos here."


    Even though Mango had wanted to snap a picture and view it on her phone every day, she still


    understood and followed Mateo''s orders.


    "Why was this regtion set?"


    "For the sake of soldiers'' safety."


    Upon hearing Mateo''s words, Mango''s flurry thoughtspletely diminished.


    Then, the two of them stayed at the Wall of Fame for a moment before someone came to make a


    report to them.


    "Commander, I''ve already sent Zion to the reception room."


    Upon hearing that her son had arrived at the reception room, Mango quickly tugged on Mateo''s


    sleeve and said, "Let''s go and meet my son! Quick!"


    "Don''t you want to look at your husband more?"


    "Nah, his heroic image has been deeply rooted in my heart."


    Mango''s anthomaniac expression slightly disgusted Mateo.


    "I guess women are also biased towards their husbands when they get married, huh?"


    "Well, Mateo, you''d better pray that you don''t have a daughter in future."


    Mango tried to retort, but little did she expect that her words woulde true. In the future, Mateo


    would really have a daughter. In fact, he had literally spoiled his daughter by giving her everything


    he managed to get. Of course, those were all matters yet toe.


    After that, the two of them walked out of the room containing the Wall of Fame. Then, Mango


    quickly ran towards the reception room.


    She was looking forward to seeing her mini-


    Nathaniel!


    "Mommy''s here!"


    Mango had yet to reach the reception room, but she managed to hear her son''s voice.


    "You shouldn''t write this program this way! I''ve warned you about this many times! If you write the


    front part wrongly, the back part will be all wasted! What are you thinking about all day long?"


    Mango immediately paused her footsteps when she heard this.


    Huh?


    Was the brat scolding someone else?


    Then, she quietly walked into the reception room. She saw Zion sitting on the chair in a small


    military uniform with a militaryptop in his hand, and he seemed to be video calling someone.


    His brows were knitted together, and a serious expression appeared on his face. He had a confident


    aura all around him, and he was exactly the miniature version of Nathaniel.


    Mango immediately froze when she saw this.


    Why did she suddenly feel upset when she saw how mature her son was? Maybe it was because


    his son should act more like a young man!
