Chapter 1322


    "Who is it?"


    When Nathaniel heard this, he quickly tensed up and immediately pulled Mango behind him. He


    had done this subconsciously without thinking about it, so Mango couldn''t help but feel safe with


    him.


    After all, he was protecting her out of instinct, so what else could she ask for?


    How could she not love such a man?


    Then, Mango grabbed Nathaniel''s arm tightly and said in a low voice, "Is it Barack?"


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    She had already thought of the worst scenario that could happen. This ce was so dark, and there


    was no light at all. If they had not brought their phones down, they would not have been able to see


    anything.


    If Barack had lived in this environment all year round, Mango would not dare to think about what


    had happened to him by now.


    "Uncle Barack, I am Mango, the daughter of Dennis and Queena. Are you my uncle from the Hans


    family, Barack Hans?"


    Mango knew that it wasn''t wise to reveal her identity at this time as she didn''t know if the other party


    was her friend or foe. However, she couldn''t care less now.


    On the other hand, Barack paused for a moment as if he was taking in Mango''s words, but he didn''t


    dare to believe herpletely at the same time.


    His voice was so hoarse to the point where they felt ufortable listening to it, but he still asked,


    "Are you my brother''s daughter?"


    "It''s me. Uncle Barack, let me take you home."


    Mango was so excited that she was even trembling as she said these words.


    After that, Nathaniel stepped in front and shone the light from his phone forward. Finally, he saw a


    man in chains that was squatting on the ground like an animal.


    His hair was very long, and it was all stuck together. It was greasy, and there was a pungent stench


    coming from it. Thus, they couldn''t help but step back at the sight of him.


    The man''s hair was covering his face, so his appearance couldn''t be seen at all. The clothes on his


    body were unbearably tattered, to the extent where some areas were already torn apart. Some of


    his skin was revealed, but they were all covered in injuries. Furthermore, they saw new wounds and


    old scars covering his body, so they were


    terrible.


    Well, Mango had only looked at Barack roughly, but she couldn''t take it anymore. Perhaps there


    wasn''t much light here now, but Barack''s hair looked as if it had turned white almostpletely.


    Meanwhile, Nathaniel didn''t dare to stay here for too long. He stepped forward and said, "Barack, I


    am Mango''s husband, Nathaniel Ye. Let me bring you out, alright? We can talk after we get out."


    "Alright."


    Barack was also emotional as he answered Nathaniel.


    After all, he was still a son of the Hans family. However, he had lived a life that was worse than


    death all these years! Now that he was facing his descendants in such a terrible state, he wanted to


    kill himself out of embarrassment. But he couldn''t allow himself to die now.


    Then, Mango looked at Barack, who was filthy, and recalled Nathaniel''s obsession with cleanliness.


    Thus, she couldn''t help but say, "Let me carry Uncle Barack instead."


    "Hey! Your husband is here!"


    Nathaniel cast a nce at Mango and felt a little dissatisfied when he heard what she said. Then,


    he immediately cut the rope binding Barack while ignoring her. He then turned around and carried


    Barack on his back before quickly walking outside.


    "Bettany, take good care of Mango. I''ll leave first."


    Nathaniel instructed as he walked out. After all, the situation here was dreadful.


    "Alright."


    Bettany immediately agreed when she heard Nathaniel''s orders.


    On the other hand, Mango had no time to care about anything else. She felt emotional as she


    followed Nathaniel''s footsteps


    outside. Meanwhile, she tried to ignore the filth that was under her feet as well.


    The three of them finally got out of the cer, but the people outside were still asleep.


    Meanwhile, Bettany walked out while supporting Mango. In the meantime, Nathaniel looked at the


    people who were still asleep with a trace of cruelty in his eyes.


    "Throw these people to the mountains and feed them to the wolves."


    There was a forest that had never been explored in the mountains. Thus, wolves and other


    ferocious animals were living there. Previously, Nathaniel wasn''t furious because he hadn''t seen


    Barack. However, he was enraged now when he saw the terrible state that Barack was in. llrgh!


    These b*stards were too ruthless!


    On the other hand, Mango did not feel bad for those people when she heard Nathaniel''s instructions


    at all. Furthermore, she thought that this punishment was too light, but she had no time to care


    about all this.


    After that, Bettany quickly followed Nathaniel''s instructions, while Nathaniel and Mango quickly


    carried Barack out of the house.


    There was already a car parked outside, but no one knew when it had arrived. However, Nathaniel


    didn''t think of anything else and got in the car with Mango and Barack. Then, they returned to


    Longford County immediately.


    No one knew when Magnolia came out, but she was waiting at the gates of Longford County. When


    she saw that Nathaniel had returned, she walked up to them.


    "Mango, where have you guys been?"


    Magnolia''s voice was calm, but Barack was stunned immediately when he heard her words.


    Right now, he was no longer the young nor charming teenager that he used to be. Now, he looked


    even worse than a beggar!


    At this thought, Barack tried his best to lower his head to the point where he couldn''t even face


    Magnolia.


    Meanwhile, Mango took a look at Barack and felt an urge to cry.


    "Aunt Magnolia, Nathan and I went out to pick up someone."


    Mango didn''t mention Barack. After all, she knew that Barack didn''t want Magnolia to see him like


    this.


    They used to love each other so much, but it was a pity that fate had to y tricks on them. Now,


    they couldn''t even recognize each other anymore, right?


    Then, Magnolia nced at the car briefly, but she was immediately stunned.


    She mmed on the car door and shouted excitedly, "Open the door! Now!"


    "No! Don''t open it!"


    Barack didn''t say these words loudly, but Magnolia could hear him.


    "Hah! Are you asking them to not open the door? Barack Hans, I dare you to say these words


    again!"


    Tears instantly rolled down Nathaniel''s cheeks as she shouted these words.


    s! She had been looking for him for so many years. In fact, she didn''t expect to see him again


    while she was still alive, and certainly not in this manner.


    Even if his long hair covered his face, his voice, appearance, and everything else he did was


    engraved in her mind. After all, she used to look at him every day. So, how could she be wrong?


    Hence, even if the man in front of her was thinner and more haggard than before, he was still


    Barack!


    When Barack heard Magnolia call out his name, he wanted to jump out of the car and escape, but


    Mango stopped him immediately.


    "Uncle Barack, where are you going? I''ve been looking for you for so long. Uncle Mateo and


    Terrance are still waiting for you toe home! So, where do you want to go?"


    After hearing what Mango had said, Magnolia confirmed that her spections were correct.


    At this thought, tears started blurring her vision. Then, she pounded on the window and yelled at


    Nathaniel, "Open the door!"


    Right now, Nathaniel did not see any disgust or disdain in Magnolia''s eyes. Instead, he could only


    sense that she was devastated and heartbroken.


    After all, she truly loved Barack, so she didn''t care about his current appearance.


    Hence, Nathaniel sighed slightly and then opened


    the door.


    "No! Don''t do it!"


    Barack wanted to stop him, but it was toote.


    After that, Magnolia rushed forward and hugged Barack without any hesitation. Then, she started


    crying when she felt the warmth of his body.


    "You''re such a b*stard! You promised to marry me. Also, you told me that no matter who I was or


    what situation I was in, you wouldn''t give up on me! What happened in the end? Where did you go?


    Do you know that I''ve waited for you and looked for you for over twenty years? You promised to


    rescue me, yet I married that old man and bore a child for him. You''re looking down on me, aren''t


    you? Do you think I''m not good enough for you? You wanted to escape from me! Barack Hans,


    you''re a coward! Urgh! How could you call yourself a man?!"


    Magnolia had always been cold and aloof in front of Mango and Nathaniel. However, she was like a


    shrew now as she continued to shout at Barack while beating on his chest. Her tears flowed down


    uncontrobly, and she hadpletely ruined her daughter image. However, Mango finally felt that


    Magnolia was a living woman like them right now.


    After that, Nathaniel winked at Mango, and Mango immediately understood.


    Although she also had a lot of things to say to her uncle and many things to ask him, it was time to


    give Magnolia and her uncle some space.


    Therefore, Mango quietly got off the car and left the car while holding Nathaniel''s hand.


    Then, Nathaniel ordered his men to strengthen the security of this ce before bringing Mango into


    the house.


    "Go and wash up."


    Nathaniel said this as he knew how ufortable Mango felt just now.


    However, Mango shook her head and said, "You should go instead. You''ve always been a clean


    freak, but just now, you carried Barack on your back. Nathan, thank you so much."


    "Haha! We''ve already been married for so many years, so why do you have to be so formal with


    me? He is your uncle, so doesn''t that make him my uncle as well?"


    Mango was speechless after hearing what he had said, but she felt blissful. After all, she knew that


    Nathaniel loved her deeply and sincerely.


    When shepared their rtionship to Magnolia and Barack as well as Queena and Terrance,


    she felt that both she and Nathaniel were so lucky.


    At this thought, Mango nodded and stopped arguing with Nathaniel. Then, she walked into the


    bathroom first.


    Meanwhile, Nathaniel went to another room to wash up and changed into clean clothes. He also


    sent someone to prepare a set of clothes for Barack.


    Although he didn''t know how long Magnolia and Barack would talk, Magnolia wouldn''t allow Barack


    to be unkempt. Hence, she would surely help him clean up.


    Therefore, Nathaniel asked someone to send the clothes and some food over. He could see that


    although Barack had been locked up in the cer for so many years, he was still sane because he


    was strong- willed. Thus, what Barack needed most right now was nutritious food.


    After he had given all these orders, Nathaniel went to clean himself up.


    When Mango came out, Nathaniel had already taken care of everything.


    On the other hand, Magnolia dragged Barack to her room. She didn''t care how Barack smelled, and


    she pulled him into her bathroom immediately.


    As soon as Magnolia entered the bathroom, she took off Barack''s clothes. Barack was startled, and


    he immediately pulled on his tattered clothes and said with his hoarse voice, "Magnolia, I can do


    it myself!"


    "Are you really sure about that? "


    Magnolia looked at him suspiciously as if she was worried that she would run away.


    Meanwhile, when Barack looked at the woman he loved deeply, he found that she was still as


    gorgeous as ever. However, when he saw the terrible state that he was him, he wanted to hide out


    of embarrassment.


    After all, he didn''t deserve to be by Magnolia''s side right now!


    Therefore, he evaded her gaze as he whispered, "I am."


    "Barack, I''m telling you this. If you dare to disappear from my sight again, I won''t let you go even if I


    follow you to the depths of hell."


    After hearing Magnolia''s determined words, Barack was stunned, but he didn''t show his emotions


    on his face.


    "I''m going to take a bath. You should go out first." Instead, Barack drove her away.


    However, Magnolia knew that he used to be a person with great pride. Therefore, he must have felt


    upset when he saw the dreadful state he was in.


    At this moment, Magnolia detested the king of Ango. llrgh! She wanted to kill him and tear him


    into pieces!
