Chapter 1066
Finally, Nathaniel received a response, but his expression darkened after seeing the signal on the
screen.
"What''s wrong?"

Mango asked.
In fact, she didn''t want to ask about it as they would have to solve it when a problem arose. In that
case, she would spend less time with Nathaniel.
"Haih... Why is it so difficult for me to spend a few days with my husband alone?"
Mango thought gloomily.
However, Nathaniel did not notice Mango''s expression as he looked at the screen in front of him
and said in a low voice, "Michael is still alive, but he doesn''t want me to interfere in this issue.
Nevertheless, I''m afraid that he won''t be able to get over Valentina''s death and the current Valentina
would deceive him..."
"Well, don''t worry too much as Michael is no longer a child. Besides, he''s a leader and he should
know what to do. Sometimes, it''s difficult to make predictions about rtionship matters, so you
should just let him solve it by himself.
Right, ask him where''s Hikasa Manual."
Mango was still thinking about the manual.
So, Nathaniel sent a message directly.
However, they didn''t receive any news from Michael for a long time. His reply finally came in when
Nathaniel was about to turn off hisptop.
"I''ll find someone to bring it to Thomas."
"Alright. Take care of yourself. Just let me know if you need my help."
"Okay."
Then, the two of them hung up and Nathaniel realized that Mango had fallen asleep as her eyes
were shut.
"Mango?"
He called softly.
However, Mango did not respond.
Nathaniel took off his jacket and draped it over her body before closing his eyes to rest.
The car was moving and Mango heard Nathaniel''s regr breath beside her ear.
He seemed to be in a deep sleep.
Then, Mango opened her eyes.
The wound on her back hurt so much that she could not bear it any longer, but she didn''t dare to
make a noise as she couldn''t.
She nced at Nathaniel''s side profile and he was indeed extremely handsome throughout. He was
still extremely pleasing to her eyes even though he looked gaunt.
Mango felt relieved when she knew that she could get Hikasa Manual back.
She looked at Nathaniel like a fangirl with passion in her eyes.
How could he be so attractive?
Meanwhile, the driver saw the expression on Mango''s face from the rearview mirror. He quickly
turned his face away as he was afraid that he might feel awkward when Mango saw him.
Mrs. Ye seemed as if she had just gotten married to Mr. Ye.
Later, Mango looked at Nathaniel for a while before she withdrew her gaze. She was afraid that she
might wake Nathaniel.
Soon, they arrived at the military base, but Nathaniel was still sleeping. Perhaps it was because
Mango was by his side that he could sleep in reassurance.
Mango did not wake him up either and she took off her coat instead before draping it over
Nathaniel''s body.
Mango''s jacket was filled with her aura and she hoped that Nathaniel could rest a little longer.
Then, Mango got off the car quietly and she closed the door carefully.
Nathaniel slept soundly with his eyes tightly shut.
It was only after Mango got out of the car that she dared to breathe as usual.
She felt really suffocating just now.
Then, Mango entered the base and she saw Bettany immediately.
"Varna Hades, do me a favor."
"Yeah?"
Bettany was slightly stunned.
"Are you hurt?"
She had a good sense of smell, so she detected the blood odor although it wasn''t strong.
Then, Mango chuckled and said, "Don''t tell Nathaniel."
"Do you really think that Nathaniel is an ordinary man?"
At that moment, Bettany''s words made Mango slightly stunned.
"What?"
"Even I could smell blood on you, do you think that Nathaniel didn''t notice it? He just didn''t say it
and pretends as if he doesn''t know as he''s aware that you don''t want him to worry. Besides, he
knows that I''m here and that you wille to me immediately. Well, you can go back to the car and
check it out if you don''t believe me. I''m sure that Nathaniel is awake. He can''t be considered a
special-force soldier if can''t even detect whether his partner is around or not."
Bettany said before entering the room.
At that moment, Mango was slightly stunned and she couldn''t stop thinking about what Bettany had
just said.
So, she turned around and walked outside as she was skeptical. Then, she quickly hid when she
was near the entrance before peeping out through the hinge of the door.
As expected, Nathaniel was sitting in the back seat of the car while talking to the driver. Mango saw
his eyes and expression and it didn''t seem as if he had just woken up.
What a cunning man!
However, his actions warmed Mango''s heart and she had the urge to cry.
He loved and doted on her while giving herplete freedom and respect. He would support her
quietly regardless of what she wanted to do, so how could Mango abandon such a man?
Her lips curled up into a faint smile and she felt really light-hearted when she walked into the base
again.
Then, she went to Bettany''s room.
Bettany had everything prepared already.
"Take off your clothes."
Bettany had always been calm and indifferent and Mango didn''t seem to have seen her smile
before.
Suddenly, she thought of Bettany''s identity, so asked in a low voice after taking off her clothes and
lying down on the bed, "Bettany, what''s the rtionship between you and my aunt Magnolia?"
Bettany was slightly stunned as a glint shed across her eyes in an instant.
"I have no idea what you''re talking about."
"You don''t have to hide it from me as Zion has investigated your background thoroughly. Do you
think the two of them would trust your people and let them save us if Zion didn''t do so? I don''t know
if Magnolia is my aunt, but if she''s Lebanon''s biological mother, then she''s most probably rted to
me. Well, don''t worry as I''m not asking you to tell me her whereabouts because of Lebanon. Since
his mother didn''t let him take over Modoru Squad despite its power, she must have other intentions.
Anyway, I just want to know more about Magnolia as she''s my aunt."
Mango''s voice was soft, but Bettany heard it clearly.
Then, she applied medicine to Mango gently and said in a low voice such that only Mango could
hear her, "Mrs. Xiao will exin it to you in the future."
"Mrs. Xiao?"
Mango turned her head abruptly and she sat up from the bed immediately.
At that moment, her eyes were filled with surprise.
"My aunt is still alive? Does Lebanon know? Why did Lebanon say that his mother has passed
away?"
"This is a secret and Mrs. Xiao will tell you in personter. As for Lebanon, you don''t have to worry
about him. He seems to be at a disadvantage now as Lexis is controlling him, but he''ll surely not be
in danger as Mrs. Xiao has been protecting him all the time."
Bettany spoke very softly and her words made Mango feel a little depressed.
Was this the battle in the pce?
Also, Magnolia faked her death?
It was as if Mango was watching a TV series.
However, she wouldn''t ask about it any further since Bettany said so. She would surely get to know
everything when she met Magnolia.
"When is Mrs. Xiao nning to see me?"
Mangoy t on the bed again.
At that moment, Bettany was stunned by the sudden change of topic by Mango, but she said with a
smile as she was aware of Mango''s personality, "Aren''t you nning to go to Ango with Mr. Ye?
You''ll naturally meet her when the timees."
"We aren''t in a hurry to go and we might travel there after the Spring Festival. Nathan is having his
birthday tomorrow and I''ll take this opportunity to go for a holiday with him. Then, it will be the
Spring Festival when wee back and I''ll have to celebrate it with my grandfather and rtives.
After that, Walter might be holding a wedding. So, I can only go to Ango with Nathan after settling
everything here."
Mango said and she realized that she indeed had many events going on.
Then, Bettany said in a low voice, "It''s okay, there''s no need for you to hurry as Mrs. Xiao has been
waiting for you for so many years. It makes no difference for her to wait another two months.
However, she wants to meet Brantley, so why not you hook them after you return?"
"That won''t do as I haven''t even verified the identity of Mrs. Xiao. How can I introduce her to my
grandpa so carelessly? My grandpa still couldn''t let go of the fact that my aunt disappeared that
year, so he would be super excited if he finds out that she''s still alive. Importantly, this would affect
his judgment ability, and let''s not rush things. She has been waiting for so many years, so another
one month or two wouldn''t make a difference, don''t you think so?"
Mango was smiling, but the cautiousness in her eyes made Bettany feel really pleased.
It seemed that Mango had be much calmer and mature than before.
Then, Bettany nodded.
She applied the medicine to Mango''s back in an instant before Mango put on a set of pajamas and
walked out in a sh.
Meanwhile, Nathaniel was still taking a nap in the car.
Was he not going to enter the house like a fool if she didn''t tell him to?
It was so warm in the car!
How was he able to bear the heat?
Mango shook her head and sighed as she really felt that Nathaniel was a blockhead at times.
At that moment, she thought of Aaliyah.
Did Aaliyah also fall in love with Nathaniel because of this?
This man was indeed really attractive.
Mango urged to cover up his face with a mask so that no woman would throw themselves at him
anymore.
At that moment, Mango was really helpless.
She stepped out of the house slowly and knocked on the door directly before saying weakly,
"Nathaniel, my wound hurts..."
Suddenly, Nathaniel opened his eyes and he seemed really worrired.
"Did you not apply the medicine? What''s Bettany doing?"
He opened the car door and got out as he spoke.
However, Mango''s gaze changed as she looked at him.
It was only at this moment that Nathaniel realized that he had been tricked by Mango and he rubbed
his nose helplessly.
He had no choice as he was really concerned about Mango, so he didn''t think about anything else
at that instant.
"Nice show, keep it up. Why are you not putting on an act anymore?"
"Oh, my dear wife has seen through my tricks and it''ll be ridiculous if I don''t stop pretending."
Then, Mango hummed in agreement after hearing Nathaniel''s words.
"Really? How are you going to make it up to me then?"
"Just tell me what you want and I''ll do anything you say."
Nathaniel looked at Mango dotingly as he wrapped his arms gently around her waist.
Mango leaned into his arms as she smiled cunningly.
"I think I have mentioned it in front of Xander... You owe me a confession."
"Stop fooling around..."
At that moment, Nathaniel''s expression stiffened.
How could he confess to his wife publicly in a woman''s outfit?
He would die of embarrassment.
Many of the soldiers here were once hisrades-in- arms and subordinates. His great reputation
would be ruined for the rest of his life if they saw him confessing his love for Mango in a woman''s
outfit.
However, Mango did not care about his concerns.
"What? Are you going back on your words?"
"Of course not, but can we do that when we go back?"
Nathaniel fought for his own good helplessly.
However, Mango shook her head and said with a smile, "No! I want you to do it here! Why are you
so embarrassed about it? You promised me yourself at that time. Also, we''re in Swovenia and no
one knows that you are the president of HY Group, so why are you afraid of losing your reputation?"
At that moment, Nathaniel felt so depressed that he wanted to kill himself.
Nobody knew that he was the president of HY Group, but many people knew him as Captain Ye.
It would be a real shame!
"Please show me some mercy, my dear wife!"
