Chapter 1192


    After returning to the bedroom, Wisdom fell to his knees with a thud as cold sweat dripped from his


    forehead.


    How could this be?


    He ran to the bookshelf and took the Hikasa Manual that he had gotten from Longford County and


    looked through it bit by bit, afraid that he might have missed something. Unfortunately, after reading


    the entire book, he couldn''t find anything that would help Nathaniel''s.


    Nathaniel was clearly poisoned!


    Wisdom knew that Nathaniel wasn''t poisoned out of the blue and that the poison was umted


    over the years.


    But how was that possible?


    Daddy had always been in good health, so even if he was poisoned with something that would kill


    him slowly, someone would have noticed changes in his health eventually.


    For so many years, Nathaniel had Noah close by his side and Noah should have been able to find


    out about the poisoning. But why didn''t he?


    Moreover, just now, Wisdom was terrified even after feeling Nathaniel''s pulse briefly.


    The poison must have already contaminated Nathaniel''s system and organs.


    How was Wisdom supposed to tell mommy?


    How could he tell her?


    He didn''t even know what was the poison in his daddy''s body right now. What should he do?


    Wisdom''s little mind was in a mess.


    When he came across such situations before, he would call Bettany immediately, but could he do it


    now?


    He didn''t know if Bettany was a friend or enemy right now. What if she took advantage of this


    opportunity and hurt his family? What if she hurt his dad and mom?


    Different emotions came rushing into his mind and heart.


    Meanwhile, Mango noticed something was up.


    Nathaniel''s face was blue like a corpse and she knew that this wasn''t just a simple headache.


    Even though the temperature in the room was 30 degrees and Mango was soaked in sweat,


    Nathaniel''s body was still ice- cold while there were tiny bits of frost at the corners of his lips.


    Indeed...


    It was snowy...


    It was as if it was winter and his lips were frozen with frost.


    She didn''t need to be an expert in the medical field to know that this was not normal.


    Right now, Nathaniel seemed to be tortured by a nightmare. His brows were tightly knitted together


    as if he was suffering from unbearable pain and was unable to break free from it.


    "Nathan, can you hear me? It''s me, Mango. Please wake up!"


    Mango shouted anxiously, but Nathanielid still on the bed and seemed to have been trapped in


    another world, unable to break free.Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Nathaniel seemed to have heard Mango''s voice and wanted to open his eyes to escape from this


    nightmare, but he was unable to do so.


    All he could see were corpses scattered everywhere and he could smell the blood that was


    streaming endlessly in the air. The piles of bodies made up a scene that was cruel and


    heartwrenching.


    Only at this moment did he realize what killing looked like and what it meant to eliminate someone


    completely.


    Here, even pregnant women were assassinated and the horrifying scene was too much for him to


    bear.


    The air was filled with the stench of blood, making it hard to breathe.


    Suddenly, someone gave out an order to set the corpses on fire, and soon, the bodies were ignited


    as the mes swallowed them.


    Then, the unpleasant smell of burning filled his nostrils.


    He wanted to do something, but he knew that he couldn''t do anything. He could only watch


    helplessly as the corpses turned into ashes slowly. Just then, a gust of wind blew and it sent the


    ashes flying as they slowly float towards the sky. It was as if the ashes were vengeful spirits and


    they were growling and crying in his ear, causing him to shiver in fear.


    The fire burned for three whole days until finally, nothing was left to burn.


    After that, someone had nted flowers on the ashes.


    Time flew and after a few years, the flowers and trees there grew beautifully in green and red, but


    somehow, it was not enough to hide the fact that piles of bodiesid beneath.


    Nathaniel felt a suffocating pain in his chest.


    The people who were ughtered seemed to be rted to him and it made his heart feel as if it was


    being torn apart. He spat a mouthful of blood and just as he was about to faint, he heard someone


    sigh and said, "Does it anger you? Do you hate them? They were your family, but every one of them


    was ughtered and killed and not a single person survived. How could you be so cold to live such


    a happy andfortable life? How could you? You are part of the Zhang family. How could you


    forget? Have you really forgotten?"


    Those questions were like curses that stuck to him and he was unable to shake them off. They were


    like shadows that followed his body everywhere.


    At that moment, Mango saw Nathaniel''s entire body twitch violently, and just as she was about to


    say something to get him out of the nightmare, she saw a line of tears slip down from his eyes,


    which made her utterly shocked.


    This was Nathaniel!


    The strong and persistent Nathaniel rarely shed tears!


    What was he going through that was so devastating it made him cry?


    This time, Mango was truly shocked. She stared nkly at Nathaniel, not knowing what to do.


    On the other hand, Wisdom was still hesitating if he should call Deltany.


    Bettany was an expert in the field of poison. Besides, she was from Longford County, so her study


    of the Hikasa Manual would be much deeper than his. But could he really put Nathaniel''s life in


    Bettany''s hands?


    It was obvious that Bettany hadn''te to Ocean City for him, so what did shee here for?


    Wisdom didn''t know, and he still couldn''t make a decision.


    Then, he took the medicine that was used to treat Nathaniel''s illness and went to Mango''s room.


    When Mango saw Wisdom, her expression turned serious and her heart sank.


    "Wisdom, you..."


    "Mommy, I have something to tell you, but please don''t worry, okay?"


    Wisdom closed the door and looked at Mango with a darkened expression.


    Even though Mango had guessed it herself, her heart still dropped at Wisdom''s words.


    "Go ahead."


    Wisdom hesitated before opening his mouth.


    "This doesn''t look like a simple headache, but it looks like daddy has been poisoned."


    Mango''s expression immediately changed when she heard these words.


    "Poisoned? How was that possible? We would have noticed something if that was the case!"


    "I was thinking the same thing too. Daddy and Uncle Noah are always together, and if there''s


    something wrong with daddy''s health, Uncle Noah should have noticed it immediately, but he


    didn''t."


    As she heard Wisdom''s words, Mango paused.


    "You think it was Noah?"


    "No, Uncle Noah and daddy are close, so he would definitely not ignore daddy''s condition


    completely like this. Something''s not right. How was daddy poisoned? It doesn''t look like dad''s been


    poisoned recently. Mommy, I''ve just started studying medicine, so I''m afraid I might be wrong. Why


    don''t we ask Uncle Noah toe and take a look?"


    Wisdom''s words made Mango''s heart tighten again.


    "Get straight to the point. We''re family, so there''s no need to hide. Besides, if Noah noticed


    something from the beginning, Nathan wouldn''t have be like this."


    Mango looked at Wisdom with a calm expression, but Wisdom knew she understood what he was


    trying to say.


    Wisdom took a deep breath and asked, "Mommy, are you and dad looking for Bettany these few


    days?"


    Mango was a little surprised by these words.


    "Yes."


    Sometimes, she knew that she couldn''t treat Wisdom as a kid like how she regarded her other two


    children.


    In the past, I said that Wisdom was a lot like Nick and that his intelligence and EQ were not as


    good as Nathaniel''s. She even said that Wisdom would only turn out to be an average person.


    However, looking at Wisdom now, Mango started to doubt I''s words.


    Was Nick really an average person?


    Nick and Nathaniel were both children of the Ye family and they shared the same genes, so how


    could one of them have an IQ of 210 while the other was an average?


    Nick must have hidden his true strengths, then.


    Whether if it was for self-protection or for other reasons, it didn''t matter. What Mango was very


    certain of was Wisdom''s intelligence.


    Her child was definitely not mediocre.


    Wisdom didn''t seem to have expected Mango''s answer to be so straightforward, so he couldn''t help


    but be stunned for a moment. He then asked with a conflicted expression, "Can I ask what did she


    do to attract so much attention from daddy and mommy?"


    "She works under Ango''s ruler and was ordered to kill my aunt, Magnolia."


    Mango didn''t hide anything from Wisdom.


    Originally, she hadn''t nned to tell Wisdom because she didn''t want her child to bear the truth.


    However, from the moment Wisdom asked the question, Mango knew that Wisdom had already


    known.


    Instead of waiting to be used and to cause conflict between Wisdom and his family, it was better to


    reveal the whole picture now to let Wisdom understand his rtionship with Bettany and to give him


    time to make a choice.


    Mango had nned to protect Wisdom from the dark side so that he could grow up like a normal


    kid, but the Ye family was veryplicated. She knew that her wish to keep her children protected


    was too much to ask for.


    As she thought about this, helplessness shed across Mango''s heart as it ached.


    As for Wisdom, he was stunned as he hadn''t expected Mango''s answer.


    Bettany wanted to kill mommy''s aunt?


    He was aware of the rtionship between Magnolia and Mango and although Mango usually


    seemed like she didn''t care, Wisdom knew that Mango valued family affection the most.


    Which meant that Bettany was on the opposing side right now.


    It also meant that Bettany could note to look at dad too.


    Wisdom felt upset as he digested everything.


    If Bettany couldn''te, who else in the world could treat his dad now?


    The poison was spreading through Nathaniel''s body like wildfire, which meant that there wasn''t


    much time left.


    Seeing Wisdom this anxious, Mango was able to guess that he had wanted to ask Bettany about


    Nathaniel.


    "Are you thinking of letting Bettanye treat your dad?"


    Although it was a question, it sounded certain.


    Wisdom couldn''t tell if Mango was angry or if she was questioning him, so he was a little nervous


    and flustered.


    "Mommy, I''m not... I..."


    His little face was very pale all of a sudden.


    Mango looked at Wisdom and reached out to hold his hand as she said in a low voice, "I understand


    that what you''re doing is for dad. Can you tell me why you want Bettany to treat him?" "I don''t know


    what daddy was poisoned with. I don''t even know when he was poisoned. But I do know that the


    poison has begun to invade his internal organs. If we don''t hurry, I''m afraid..."


    Wisdom didn''t finish his sentence, but Mango knew exactly what he wanted to say.


    Not much time left?


    The simple words seemed to weigh a ton in Mango''s heart.


    Then, her entire body trembled as she fell onto a chair, and she could feel her eyes sting with tears,


    but she held them in forcefully.
