Chapter 1065
At that moment, Nathaniel''s grasp tightened.
It didn''t matter to him that the bullets were falling like rain and that people were fighting against each
other beside them. His entire being and five senses were overwhelmed and spellbound by Mango.
At that moment, Nathaniel hugged Mango so tightly that she felt as if her bones were about to
break.
It seemed that Nathaniel was really scared out of his wits.
However, Mango would definitely note here without any preparations.
She was naive for taking action alone back then, but she would be really foolish if she repeated her
mistake again. Besides, it was really chaotic here, so she would surely ask for help from Brantley or
the Hans family''s men if she couldn''t bring the members of Dark Night Empire.
Nevertheless, Mango was still very happy that Nathaniel cared so much about her.
It was only when Mango went out of breath that she struggled to push Nathaniel away.
She gasped for air while her face was as red as a tomato and her eyes were seductive and
hypnotizing. The two of them were overflowing with love for each other.
At that instant, Nathaniel really wanted to hide her so that no one could see her beauty.
"Come on, let''s go find Zion!"
Having said that, Nathaniel lifted Mango up in a sh and walked outside.
Suddenly, they heard a gunshot as a bullet brushed across Nathaniel''s scalp from the back of his
head.
"Ssh!" Warm liquid seeped out instantly and it stained Mango''s face.
It was blood!
Fresh blood, man!
Mango''s body stiffened as she looked behind Nathaniel and saw a terrorist copsed onto the
ground slowly. He was only a few centimeters away from Nathaniel.
Blood gushed out from his temple and it formed a pool on the ground.
It was the first time that Mango had witnessed death at such a close distance and she felt really
frightened.
Nathaniel held her tightly in his arms as he looked in the direction of the source of the gunshot and
Zion came into his sight.
The sniper was Zion?!
At that moment, Nathaniel''s eyes widened.
However, Zion stood up as if he wasn''t affected mentally at all and he walked towards them.
Doubtlessly, Mango had noticed this as well.
She became a little nervous at that instant.
Did Zion just kill someone?
He did it to protect Nathaniel, but he was still a child!
He was at such a young age!
Mango struggled before she got out of Nathaniel''s embrace and quickly ran towards Zion.
"Are you okay, Zion? Is everything okay?"
Mango''s entire body trembled.
She didn''t know if it was because she was afraid or because she was worried about Zion.
Then, Zion said calmly, "I''m fine as long as Mr. Ye is alright."
"My boy, why did you..."
Before Mango could finish her words, Nathaniel grabbed hold of her hand.
He looked at Zion with concern in his eyes.
"Let''s go in and have a look at Wisdom as he''s injured... He''s now inside the room."
"Bettany has already gone in."
Zion said indifferently.
However, Nathaniel was really sensitive and he discerned that Zion''s hand was trembling.
The recoil of the sniper rifle was really powerful and it wasn''t something that a child of Zion''s age
could handle. Unfortunately, Zion had no other choice at the critical moment just now.
Meanwhile, Zion sensed Nathaniel''s gaze and he immediately ced his right hand behind his back
before saying faintly, "I guess I should go and have a look at Wisdom."
Having said that, Zion left without noticing the worried expressions on Nathaniel''s and Mango''s
faces.
After Zion entered Wisdom''s room, he saw Bettany was examining Wisdom''s wound whereas
Desmond had already left.
"Zion."
Wisdom turned his head and grinned at him.
Then, Zion nodded as the corners of his mouth twitched, but he didn''t smile.
Meanwhile, Bettany had treated Wisdom''s wound and she felt that the two brothers needed some
space for themselves. When she looked at Zion, so she nodded at Wisdom before leaving.
It was only when Wisdom and Zion were the ones left in the room that Wisdom realized Zion''s
ghastly pale countenance.
"Zion, what''s wrong?"
"It''s nothing."
Zion sat beside Wisdom with a dull look in his eyes.
"You..."
Wisdom reached out and grabbed Zion''s hand before he frowned suddenly and asked, "Why are
your hands so cold? Your palms are really sweaty too..."
"I just killed someone with a gun."
Zion spoke very calmly, but Wisdom noticed the trace of panic in his voice and eyes.
He killed a person?
Both Zion and Wisdom had never experienced a murder, so they didn''t know how it felt deep down.
It was no wonder that Zion had such a reaction after doing it not too long ago.
"How about I give you some counselling?"
Then, Zion shook his head and said, "You don''t have to as I''ll see the psychologist in the military
region when I get back. I''m just not used to it."
"No one would get used to it... Why don''t you sleep with me tonight?"
"Alright."
Zion didn''t refuse Wisdom''s request.
On the other hand, Mango looked at Nathaniel and asked, "Is Zion alright?"
"Do you think that he seems fine? He looks quite calm on the surface, but he must have felt
traumatized deep down as the terrorist is a human after all. Anyone would feel shocked after firing a
gun at a person for the first time. Anyway, I''ll ask our captain to let Zion see a psychologist after we
return so that he won''t have any traumas in the future."
Nathaniel''s eyes narrowed at that moment.
Then, he kicked the dead man in front of him with intense anger in his eyes.
He would never let go of Xander if Zion had trauma after this!
Later, Mango and Nathaniel left while feeling heavy-hearted.
The rest of the military soldiers took care of the rest of the issues.
Outside, Mango saw that the Hans and Xiao families'' subordinates were here, so she told them,
"You can go back now and tell my uncle and grandfather that we''re fine. Nathan and I will stay here
for a few days, but well be back soon."
"Alright."
Mango saw that Bettany was giving instructions to a group of men, so she asked Nathaniel, "Where
did Bettany''s mene from?"
"Have you heard of Modoru Squad?"
"What?"
Mango was really confused at that moment,
So, Nathaniel told her everything that Zion had found.
Mango paused for a moment before asking, "Is Magnolia my aunt?"
"She could be, but it''s possible that she''s not and we can''t be sure yet at the moment. Anyway, the
situation in Ango is quiteplicated, so we''d better not intervene in this issue for the time being.
Also, it''s very likely that your aunt''s disappearance involves some untold truths and there may even
be a mastermind behind her back. Now, I''m really worried as we don''t know what''s the motive of the
person behind this."
Nathaniel sighed softly.
However, Mango said nonchntly, "Who cares about his motive? There''s no need for us to cross
the bridge till wee to it, so what''s the point of being so worried now? Well discuss this another
time."
Then, they got into the car hand in hand.
Mango had just gotten on the car when rissa''s call came through.
She paused for a moment and said with confusion, "Isn''t the phone signal here destroyed? How is it
possible for her to call me?"
"We found someone to fix it before we came here. You should believe in your son."
"Are you saying that Zion did it?"
Mango was incredibly proud at that moment.
Nathaniel''s lips curled up slightly and it was obvious that he was also very proud of Zion.
Immediately, Mango answered the call.
"Ms. Shen, we''ve solved Meng Tiantian''s issue. After Lawrence''s death, his parents boldly
demanded 10 million dors from Meng Tiantian. However, she refused to pay them, so Lawrence''s
parents directly attacked her at thepany''s entrance. Ourpany''swyer immediately sued
his parents and Meng Tiantian doesn''t agree to reconcile with them, so we''re still trying to settle the
issue now. Nevertheless, we have gained the upper hand."
Then, Mango felt relieved after hearing rissa''s
words.
In fact, she received two good news at once.
It was fortunate that Nathaniel was fine and Meng Tiantian''s problem was also solved now.
"Alright, just do as you see fit. I won''t handle thepany''s affairs these days, so you don''t have to
report to me if there''s nothing important. I''m sure you can settle the issues on your own."
After saying that, Mango hung up the phone.
She turned off her phone directly to prevent others from disturbing her.
However, Nathaniel looked at her in confusion.
"What are you doing?"
"I want to spend some time with you and I don''t want to be disturbed by others."
Unfortunately, Mango''s words made Nathaniel smile bitterly.
"I''m afraid we can''t do that for the time being."
"Why not?"
"Michael had an ident and I have to check if he''s fine."
Then, Nathaniel''s words made Mango pause for a moment.
He still received the news about Michael''s disappearance at the end of the day.
"What do you think about the ident?"
"Michael''s disappearance has something to do with Valentina and I suspect that she''s not the real
Valentina."
Once again, Nathaniel''s words stunned Mango.
"She''s fake? Do you have any evidence?"
"No, but I was by Valentina''s side when she died and I saw it with my own eyes that she was killed
by a gunshot. We couldn''t save her, but we brought back her corpse. It''s impossible for someone to
come back to life after so many years."
Nathaniel whispered with a saddened tone.
As Nathaniel''s wife, Mango trusted that he wouldn''t be wrong since he insisted that Valentina''s
identity was fake.
"Who''s the woman who looks exactly like Valentina then? Is she Valentina''s twin sister?"
"Valentina is the only daughter in her family and she only has a male cousin without any sisters.
Now, I''m afraid that Michael deliberately let himself get caught so that he can investigate the truth."
Mango understood Nathaniel''s
words immediately.
"So did Michael y along with their trick? Thomas and I think that Michael would not be kidnapped
by others considering his skills, unless he did that willingly. I didn''t expect that he had such a
rtionship."
Then, Nathaniel looked at her and said, "I guess we can''t solve this in a short time, but I want to
make sure that Michael is safe now."
"How?"
"Well, of course I have my own way."

After saying that, Nathaniel sat down and turned on hisptop before entering a series of codes.
However, his screen remained pitch-ck without any signal.
Mango felt bored as she couldn''t grasp such IT matters.
She leaned back in the chair and she felt the pain in her back at that moment. It was only then that
she remembered that her wound had opened up.
Oh, no!
Should she tell Nathaniel about it?
Mango was a little conflicted at that moment.
Then, she nced at Nathaniel''s side profile.
He had be thinner and more tanned aftering to Swovenia. Mango felt heartbroken when
she saw the dark circles under his eyes.
He probably had not had a good rest after he arrived at Swovenia.
At the thought of this, Mango took in a deep breath and hid the fact that her wound had ruptured.
