Chapter 1300
"What''s wrong? Did something else happen?"
Bettany and Maverick couldn''t help but ask when they saw Mango''s pale expression.
"Nothing. I''ll go back first. Bettany, you stay here and take good care of Lilian."
After that Mango didn''t say anything else and left with Magnolia in a hurry.
Meanwhile, Bettany was a little confused. However, she stayed behind and carefully examined
Lilian''s condition.
On the other hand, Maverick gestured to the guards outside, and the two of them quickly caught up
with Mango and secretly protected her.
Once Mango and Magnolia left the ward, they quickly headed back to Longford County.
"Were you telling the truth? Is Nathan really back?" "Yes, he''s back, but he''s not doing very well."
Magnolia looked a little anxious when she said this.
Thus, Mango became anxious when she heard that Nathaniel wasn''t doing quite well.
"Is he injured?"
"He''s slightly wounded, but he''s in aa!"
After hearing what Magnolia had said, Mango was stunned.
"Why didn''t you tell me that he was in aa earlier? If I leave Bettany here, how can I help
Nathan?"
"Don''t worry, Wisdom is taking care of him. He said he can handle it by himself for now, and he just
wanted me to inform you about this."
Mango was taken aback when she heard what Magnolia had aid. However, she quickly drove back
to Longford County without asking anything else.
Aftering back, she went to the bedroom in a hurry. Then, she became anxious when she saw
Wisdom.
"Where''s Nathan?"
"He''s lying on the bed!"
Wisdom got out of the way after answering Mango.
Then, Mango quickly walked in and saw Nathaniel lying quietly on the bed, and thetter looked like
he was asleep.
It had only been a few days since theyst met, but she felt like it had been too long.
Then, she walked over quietly as she was afraid that she would wake him up.
She touched his face gently, and she finally believed that Nathaniel was really back when she felt
his warm temperature.
"What happened to him?"
"I''m not sure, but I can''t find any problems. There are only some minor wounds on his body, but he''s
been ina for some time."
Wisdom said in a low voice, but Mango was still concerned.
"If that''s the case, why didn''t you let Bettanye back?"
Mango did not understand what Wisdom was nning to do.
Then, Wisdom pondered for a moment and said, "Mommy, daddy was the one who wanted me to
do this."
"What?"
Mango was stunned when she heard this.
"Didn''t you say that he was in aa?"
"Yes, but he kept holding this in his hands."
Wisdom passed a slip of paper to Mango after saying this.
Meanwhile, Nathaniel''s had written some words on the note, and they said, "Don''t worry about me
and don''t ask anyone to treat me. You must keep my return a secret."
However, Mango didn''t know what Nathaniel meant. There were people all over the vige, so how
could she hide this from everyone?
Furthermore, what was Nathaniel''s current body condition?
Was he experiencing the same symptoms as Maverick?
"Wisdom, if your dad suffering because of the Golden Lancehead Venom in his body? Will he wake
up after a while just like Maverick?"
However, Wisdom shook his head in response to Mango''s question, "No. Uncle suffered some
severe consequences because he had just eaten the insect recently. However, daddy and the
Golden Lancehead Venom have fused for such a long time, so it shouldn''t be the same. However,
daddy''s pulse is stable, so he''s probably only asleep. I gave him a check-up, and there''s nothing
abnormal with him. Mommy, don''t worry. Daddy doesn''t want anyone to know that he''s back, so he
probably has some ns of his own. I''m sure we''ll know about them when he wakes up."
Although what Wisdom had said was reasonable, Mango was still worried.
After all, she could continue to be anxious if
Nathaniel never woke up.
"But how are we supposed to hide it from everyone? Bettany will discover it once shees back. I
can''t keep her out of the door, can I?"
Although Mango doesn''t know why Nathaniel had made such a request, it was indeed difficult to
hide him away from the public''s eye. Then, he asked," Right, how did Nathane back? I
remembered that he didn''t want anyone to know that he had returned, so how did he make his way
back?"
"He came in through the ancestral hall."
Mango was slightly stunned when she heard what Wisdom had said.
"Huh? The ancestral hall?"
"Well, daddy came up from the tunnel beneath the ancestral hall''s altar."
Mango was shocked again.
Previously, she met Ang there when she fell into the hall. Wasn''t that ce just an underground
basement? How could there be an underground tunnel beneath it?
Hence, Ang should be the only one who knew about it, right?
So was Ang the one who had sent Nathaniel back?
Well, since she had sent Nathaniel back, why didn''t she send Rita back too?
Suddenly, a lot of questions popped up in Mango''s mind, but she couldn''t find an urate answer.
"Why did you go to the ancestral hall for no reason?"
Mango finally realized this problem.
Then, Wisdom whispered, "Rita informed me about this."
"Rita? How did you get in touch with her?"
Mango was overjoyed after receiving news about Rita.
Then, Wisdom took out his phone and passed it to Mango.
"Half an hour ago, Rita called me and asked me to go to the ancestral temple to pick up daddy.
However, her signal was weak, so the call disconnected after she had finished her words."
Well, Wisdom was troubled by this as well.
On the other hand, Mango didn''t know what was going on between Rita and Nathaniel. However,
she felt more secure now that Nathaniel had returned.
"Then where should we hide him?"
Wisdom shook his head immediately in response after hearing Mango''s question.
"I don''t know."
After all, Longford County was built in an open space. Hence, Nathaniel could be easily found even
if they put him in the bedroom.
At this thought, Mango was a little worried.
Meanwhile, Magnolia went back to her room and sent someone to investigate Augustus'' identity.
On the other hand, Zion suddenly called Mango when she was still upset.
"Mommy, is Mr. Ye here?"
After hearing this, Mango paused slightly and hurriedly said, "He''s taking a nap right now. What''s
wrong? Do you have something to tell him?"
"I suddenly remembered something! I thought about it when I was ying games today!"
"What is it?"
Mango was puzzled when she heard this.
Then, Zion whispered, "When Nanny Zhang met me in the Santell Capital Prison back then, she
told me something about the Longford County. But, I forgot to tell you at that time, and I almost
forgot about it because it''s been quite some time. However, I remembered it when I was ying the
game just now."
Mango paused slightly when she heard this.
"Nanny Zhang? Are you talking about Madeline?"
"That''s right!"
Zion nodded while answering.
Well, Mango was a little curious about what Madeline had told Zion.
"What did she say then?"
"She told me that in the ancestral temple, there''s a secret passage that leads to outside. Hence,
she said that people would only use it during an emergency. However, no one went there during the
destruction. Oh, also, there''s a secret room in there too. Hold on, let me send you the location via
Whatsapp..."
After saying that, Zion hung up the phone and sent Mango the location on Whatsapp.
Meanwhile, Mango followed the direction and found that it was actually located in her bedroom.
Was this a coincidence?
Mango felt that Zion definitely knew something. However, she wasn''t sure if Nanny Zhang was the
one who had told Zion about this. Well, still, she felt relieved when as she had found a ce to hide
Nathaniel.
Then, Wisdom and she searched in the bedroom for a long time and found that the wall behind the
cab seemed empty.
They fumbled for a long time before finally finding the opening. After entering the door, there was
indeed a secret room with an air vent.
"Henry was the one who built Longford County, so was he the one who had left these secret rooms
and tunnels? But now Henry is in Ango, and we are far away from Ango. So, how did this news
leak out?"
Mango thought about this carefully.
Then, Wisdom whispered, "Maybe Uncle Henry left it before he left."
Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
Mango nodded slightly in agreement.
Did Henry have any acquaintances here?
This was a secret location, so he would only tell this to the descendants of Longford County, right?
Did he tell Ang about this?
Well, Henry didn''t tell Bettany about this room, but he had told Ang about it. This meant that
Henry trusted Ang. But, why did Ang use Bettany, Nathaniel and Rita to get hold of Morgan''s
whereabouts?
Mango''s mind was filled with many thoughts immediately. However, she quickly moved Nathaniel
inside this secret room as well.
"Wisdom, is your daddy really okay?"
"Yes. Daddy''s too tired, so he''s only taking a rest. Look at the dark circles around his eyes!"
Wisdom pointed at Nathaniel''s eyebags as he said this, and Mango also noticed them. However,
she felt a little uneasy when she saw him sleeping soundly.
After settling Nathaniel''s down in the room, Mango couldn''t stay there any longer as she was
worried that the people outside couldn''t find her. Thus, she left the ce with Wisdom.
Meanwhile, Bettany did a check- up on Lilian prescribed a few medications to her before returning
to Longford County.
"Did something happen?"
Bettany saw that Mango had left in a hurry, so she hurried back to look for Mango as she was
worried about her.
"Nothing, I found some information about Augustus."
After all, Magnolia had only told Mango about Augustus''s identity, and Mango had only told
Maverick about this. Now, Bettany had asked about this, and Maverick was not around either. Thus,
Mango could only talk about Augustus as she wanted to hide the fact that Nathaniel had returned.
Well, she did not doubt Bettany, but she believed that Nathaniel had given those instructions for a
reason. Therefore, she had no choice but to hide it from Bettany.
On the other hand, when Bettany heard Mango telling her that Augustus had been using someone''s
identity all along, she couldn''t help but frown.
"Wow! Augustus is really cunning. He even pretended to be a dead man for so many years, and he
yed the role so well too! I have to admit that he''s too incredible, and I''m afraid that there''s some
powerful force backing him up."
Mango nodded in reply when she heard this.
"Yes, so I think that Longford County has many secrets that we don''t know about. Also, I don''t think
he came here solely for the mines. Now that I''m investigating this, I think that everything looks
fishier. Oh, well, I guess we can only find the answer from Augustus. However, he''s currently
missing, and Lilian is not in good health. So, I don''t know how long we can dy this."
Mango was troubled and stressed out when she thought about this.
After that, Bettany pondered for a moment and said in a low voice, "Madam, perhaps we can ask
Barack about this. Maybe he knows who Augustus is."
Mango was stunned when she heard these words!
Did Bettany want to meet Barack now?
Wait, was it safe to meet Barack right now? ording to what Bettany had said, Barack should be
nearby, so Mango was nervous when she heard this.
