Chapter 1259
Ang didn''t expect Mango to be so sharp, so she couldn''t help but be stunned for a moment. Her
momentary daze was enough to let Mango know that her guess was almost urate.
Nathaniel kept quiet after Mango spoke.
Meanwhile, the rescue began outside.
Mango and Nathaniel were pulled upward and so was Ang. However, she was restrained as
soon as she went up.
"Give me the antidote."
Nathaniel''s voice was icy cold. There was no warmth in his tone.
Ang shivered a little and gave the antidote to him. Only at this moment did Mango see that his
fingers were ck.
"Are you poisoned?"
Mango felt weak and shaky. Her eyes were filled with concern.
Nathaniel replied softly, "It''s okay, I''ll bring you to a shower first."
After saying that, he ced the antidote in his pocket and said coldly, "Lock this woman up. I need
to know all her secrets."
"Yes sir."
The bodyguards immediately stepped forward, and Ang was so scared that she struggled
against their hold immediately.
"Hey, don''t be so ungrateful. I saved your wife just now."
"If it weren''t for that, you would''ve already been dead now."
After saying that, Nathaniel ignored her and left the ancestral temple with Mango in his arms.
As he returned to the residential area at the back, Rita and Wisdom ran over to him hurriedly.
"Dad, what happened to mom?"
"Don''te over. Your mom inhaled the incense just now. She''ll be fine after resting for a while. Go
take a rest. Wisdom,e with me."
Nathaniel paused for a moment before he asked Wisdom to stay.
Although Rita was a little worried, she was no longer so worried when Nathaniel called Wisdom to
go with him.
Then she returned to her room.
As Wisdom entered the room, he frowned when he saw Mango.
"Mom, were you poisoned by someone else?"
"Can you settle the problem?"
Nathaniel''s face was solemn.
Wisdom nodded and said, "This drug is nothing. It''s just a poison that temporarily paralyzes the
nerves. It doesn''t affect the body much. We can just wash it off using water. But mom, weren''t you
with dad all the time? How could you be poisoned?"
"A woman did it."
The look in Nathaniel''s eyes was a little cold.
Wisdom didn''t ask any further questions. He gave Mango a detailed examination before he felt
relieved.
"It''s okay. She will be fine after getting some rest."
"Alright. You should rest, too."
Nathaniel said calmly as he carried Mango to the bathroom. He rinsed the poison off her body
before taking the antidote himself.
Mango looked at Nathaniel and let out a soft sigh while saying, "You''re always ignoring your own
safety. Aren''t you afraid that the poison will affect your health after too long?"
"To me, you are the most important. I was upset that I couldn''t save you the first instance you had
fallen into the cer. I can''t let anything happen to you ever again."
"You didn''t save me at the first instance because you have to deal with other things outside, didn''t
you?"
Nathaniel was slightly taken aback at her words. Then he smiled as a trace of warmth returned to
his eyes.
"It''s all settled. You don''t have to worry."
Nathaniel did not tell her in detail about what had happened after he had been enthralled by the
incense, nor did he tell her about Wisdom. To him, everything could change slowly with the passage
of time and the thinking of men.
"Are you famished? Shall I get you something to eat?"
"I''d love to."
Mango was indeed really hungry. Her body had not yet recovered its strength, so it was nice if she
could have some food.
Nathaniel patted her on the head and arranged for bodyguards to guard her. Then, he went to the
kitchen.
After Rita returned to her room, she identally saw a woman being dragged by a few bodyguards
to the back of the house. She could not help but freeze momentarily.
She followed them quickly out of curiosity.
Ang was locked in a cave by the bodyguards. They even brought out a whip.
There were barbs on the whip. One single sh would definitely sh one''s skin open. Adding
barbs into the equation, the process would be even more torturing.
Ang''s face turned ashen abruptly.
"Hey, I''m warning you. Don''t do this to me, or else, you''ll regret it!"

However, the bodyguards stared at her coldly as if they didn''t hear her.
The whip cut through the air and smashed on the ground. A loud noise was hurt, which scared
Ang into a high pitch scream.
"I''m being killed! Help! Is there a good Samaritan out there who can save me? I''m just a weak
woman who is being tortured by viins. Is there still justice in this world?"
Ang cried loudly as if she was if she was being tortured inhumanly.
Her shrill voice hurt the bodyguard''s ear. He took the whip into his hands and swung it.
"Ouch!"
This time, Ang was not faking it.
Rita could even see droplets of blood dancing and flying in the air.
Ang''s whole body trembled in fear.
"You f*cking b*stard!"
She gnashed her teeth and cursed angrily.
Rita''s eyes narrowed slightly at the hair clip in her hair all of a sudden. She said quickly, "Hang on."
The bodyguard was shocked upon hearing her order.
"Miss Ye? What are you doing here? Go back now. This isn''t the ce you should be."
The other bodyguards around blocked Ang from Rita''s view immediately with a look from that
bodyguard.
If such Rita was terrified by such a bloody scene frightened, Mr. Ye would kill them over and over
again.
However, Rita said with some dissatisfaction, "I''m the daughter of the Ye family after all. If I can''t
bear to see such a scene, can I still work for my family? Scram! Let me see what this woman looks
like. Is she really a tough one?"
Rita walked over as she spoke.
The bodyguard was about to call Nathaniel, but Rita said coldly, "If you dare to tell my dad, I''ll tell
him that you want to molest me. Who do you think my dad will believe?"
The corners of Rita''s lips were angled slightly upward. Her menacing look was extremely simr to
Nathaniel''s. The bodyguard''s face turned pale with fright as his hand shook. He lost his grip on the
phone and it fell to the ground.
"Ah, such a good boy."
Rita stomped on his phone, and it broke into thousands of pieces in an instant.
"Don''t worry. I willpensate you with a new er. But it''ll depend on your performance now."
Her smile was innocent, yet oddly reminiscence of a devil''s smile.
All the bodyguards here thought that Rita was probably possessed by some evil spirits.
How could this be thedy who only enjoyed life all the time?
Miss Ye was so cute and naive. She would never treat them like this.
Unfortunately, Rita had once again ruined their understanding of her.
Rita walked up to Ang and raised her head to look at the woman in front of her. She shook her
head as she said, "Your figure isn''t bad, but I can''t see your face clearly. Are you wearing this
because you look very ugly?"
Ang had nevere across a child like this.
Rita looked like an angel. Her eyes were adorable, her face was delicate, and her skin was smooth
and silky. No matter how people looked at it, she was a good child. But why did she say hideous
things like this?
Ang tried to suppress the anger in her heart. She bit her teeth and said with a smile, "Child, can
you save me? These are all bad people. As long as you save me, I''ll treat you to something
delicious."
The people around her became nervous suddenly.
Rita was a glutton and everyone knew it. If she really let Ang go, they would not be able to
survive the wrath of Nathaniel.
"Miss Ye..."
"Shush!"
Rita red at the bodyguard before she turned to look at Ang with a bright smile.
"Are you treating me to delicious food? What would you like to treat me to? I want to eat birds in the
sky, animals on thend, and fish in the sea. Can you treat me to all those?"
As soon as Rita finished speaking, Ang was stunned instantly.
She quickly lowered her head as an ambiguous emotion shed in her eyes.
"I can treat you to those separately. I''ll treat you to birds in the sky first and then followed by animals
on thend after two weeks. After another two weeks, I''ll treat you to fish in the sea. How about
that?"
After Ang finished her sentence, she looked upward at Rita with hopeful eyes.
Rita rested her chin on her hand as she seemed to be thinking about it seriously.
"Two weeks, huh? That''s too long. How about one week?"
"Well, as long as you release me, I''ll treat you to delicious food."
Ang tried her best to coax Rita.
"Okay, it''s a deal!"
Rita intended to pat Ang''s shoulder, but she was not tall enough. She pointed to the bodyguards
behind her and said, "Come over here! Hold me on your shoulder."
The bodyguards did not dare to disobey her as he quickly carried Rita on his shoulder.
Rita looked at Ang with a smile. Then she suddenly pped thetter on the shoulder where the
whip hit her just now.
"Ouch!"
It was so painful that Ang almost fainted.
"F*ck your whole family!"
She could not help but swear in pain.
However, Rita smiled and said, "I do have a family. My father has an adopted elder brother too, so
he can be considered family as well. His surname is Eaves, and he is known as Morgan Eaves.
Were you scolding him just now?"
Ang suddenly looked like she smelled poop.
She was shivering from the pain, but she also said word by word, "I don''t dare to do so. I''m cursing
myself though..."
"I''m afraid you''re a dumbass. Haiz, I''ve been talking to a fool for so long. I even admire myself for
my patience. Forget it, let''s stop ying games. I''m going back."
Rita patted the bodyguard and he immediately understood hermand. He ced her on the
ground. Then he watched her sprang to her feet and walked outside before he let out a sigh of
relief. He then realized that his whole back was soaked with sweat.
Ang watched Rita leave. The look in her eyes was veryplicated, but they went back to
normal as soon as the bodyguard turned around.
"I''m warning you, I am really the good guy. If you dare to kill me callously, you will get what you
deserve."
Before Ang could finish her words, the bodyguard whipped her a second time, and the whole
cave was filled with her miserable yell.
Rita furrowed her brows slightly. She took out her phone and quickly found Bjorn''s WhatsApp as
she sent him a message.
"I''ve already sent the items out, but it seems that your men are killed by my father''s men. If she was
really killed, it''s useless to give her the item, isn''t it?"
She received a reply immediately after sending the message.
"I''ll have my mom call my uncle right away."
Rita deleted the chat history once she saw the message.
She looked at the cave again. Ang''s miserable wail resonated within the space again. It made
her hair stand on end.
Wow, how harrowing!
