Chapter 1338


    This was a warning from Nathaniel!


    Nathaniel rarely spoke to her like this. Thus, she couldn''t help but feel a little aggrieved as he was


    treating her this way because of Mango.


    "Mr. Ye, I''ve done so much for the Baxter Alliance all these years, and most importantly for your


    sake. Are you trying to warn me because of Mango?"


    Upon hearing this, Nathaniel suddenly felt sorry for her, and he couldn''t bear to upset her any


    further.


    "Prisci, she''s my wife. I won''t allow anyone to hurt her. Do you think I''m still worthy enough to be a


    man if I can''t even protect my wife?"


    "But..."


    "Well, that''s enough. Mango is a wonderful woman. I believe you''ll like her once you meet her in


    person."


    After saying that, Nathaniel ended the phone call directly.


    Prisci''s eyes darkened when she heard a beeping sounding from the other end of the line.


    After all, Nathaniel rarely cared about a person so much.


    She looked at the stack of documents in her hand that were all about Mango.


    Mango used to be an ordinary and somewhat average woman that no one would like. However,


    how on earth did she catch Nathaniel''s attention? Didn''t she use some tricks to climb onto his bed


    and be his wife?


    Prisci was truly annoyed. Although the information she found said that Mango had suffered so


    much in the past few years, and that she had almost died in the fire, so what?


    If she had known her ce and hadn''t thought about marrying Nathaniel, would such a thing have


    happened? In the end, it was all Mango''s fault, and why was Nathaniel so protective of her?


    Who did she think she was?


    At this thought, Prisci crumpled the documents, and there was a hint of determination in her eyes.


    After putting down the phone, Nathaniel looked at the snow storm outside and felt extremely


    troubled.


    His feelings for Prisci were totally different from what she thought.


    Back then, Prisci was working with him on the battlefield, and they had been through ups and


    downs. To be honest, Nathaniel had never thought of her as a woman during that time.


    She was like arade to him, and she could even risk her life for her. However, Nathaniel was


    once captured in a mission. In order to save him, Prisci disregarded the rules and invaded the


    enemy''s territory alone. In the end, she fought her way out of the hands of over thirty terrorists and


    rescued Nathaniel. However, she was shot and left behind by the enemy.


    In fact, he never knew how much he had suffered. Anyway, Prisci was covered in blood by the


    time he found her. Although she wasn''t harassed by any men, they had shot her in the abdomen.


    Hence, the doctor said that she had lost the ability to give birth.


    Well, Nathaniel owed her his life!


    He still remembered how Prisci said to him with a smile back then, "It''s alright, Mr. Ye. You won''t


    abandon me, right? Why don''t you marry me?"


    At that time, Nathaniel had wanted to marry her. After all, it was not easy for a woman to find a man


    who would ept her for being infertile. Although he didn''t want to see her having rtionship


    troubles because of them, he remained silent and didn''t give her an answer. However, everyone


    had assumed that they had gotten together.


    Despite not getting a direct answer from him, Prisci was still happy, and she didn''t mind being


    infertile. On the other hand, Nathaniel could feel her excitement, but he felt somewhat depressed


    and pressured.


    In fact, he didn''t want to marry her because he knew that it was definitely not love. After all, he had


    always treated her like a sibling and arade.


    Well, Nathaniel had always been longing for love, and he also hoped to find an ideal partner of his


    own. Despite that, he didn''t want to be together with her, but he knew that Pricai needed to


    undergo treatment.


    At that time, Prisci''s emotions were very unstable. He had wanted her to cooperate with the


    doctor and undergo treatment, so he had said nothing about the rumours that had spread.


    Upon knowing this, Prisci felt blessed. Naturally, her mental and physical state had improved in


    no time.


    Nathaniel still remembered the day when she recovered from her injury. At that time, Prisci was


    wearing a white wedding gown. That was the time he realised she was actually a real woman, a


    woman who wanted to marry him and spend the rest of her life with him.


    However, Nathaniel didn''t want to do so. He knew that he was a yboy, but he still told her the


    truth.


    He said, "Prisci, I''m sorry. I will treat you as my sister all my life, and I will always have your back.


    The Ye Family is your home. I promise to protect you, but I can''t marry you."


    After hearing that, Prisci felt as if her whole world had been torn apart.


    She looked at Nathaniel with a stunned expression. Then, tears started forming in her eyes, so


    Nathaniel felt bad as well.


    After that, she had burst into tears.


    That was the first time Nathaniel saw her cry. Only then did he realised that Prisci was not as


    strong and tough as he imagined.

    "Sorry, Prisci, I understand that I might sound a bit ruthless here, but everyone in the world has


    the right to find their own love. I am not in love with you, but I do n on finding my own true love in


    the future. Well, we''re just not meant to be. I once wondered if I should marry you because of my


    responsibility, but this would be unfair to you."


    "Mr. Ye, I don''t care. I love you and I want to be with you!"


    Prisci cried out in agony. After all, she had waited so many days because she wanted to have a


    wedding that everyone would envy. Who knew that Nathaniel would be the one who suggested that


    they would break up?


    No! She couldn''t ept this!


    Nathaniel said apologetically, "But I don''t love you. If I don''t love you, our marriage will never be


    happy, and it would be all for nothing. Prisci, I don''t love you, and I mean it. Even after years have


    passed, I still won''t. I''m not the kind of man who will force my feelings on someone I don''t love. I


    want someone who I can love at first sight and someone who can make my heart pound. We''ve


    been together for so many years. To be honest, if it weren''t for your injury, I wouldn''t have thought of


    you as a woman. I''m sure you know that I won''t change at mind."


    His words were very cruel and cold. Prici couldn''t believe her ears, she never thought that he was


    in fact a heartless person.


    He used to be so cold and emotionless! However, it seemed like everything had changed after


    Mango appeared.


    Nathaniel was recalling the past, and so was Prisci.


    She looked at the documents in her hand andughed crazily as tears rolled down her eyes


    unknowingly.


    "Mr. Ye, you said that you wouldn''t get married so hastily. However, I''m pretty sure that Mango


    yed some dirty tricks and forced you to marry her! Why do you treat her so well? Why did you


    end up with her? Didn''t you say that you wanted someone that you could fall in love with at first


    sight? Then how did Mango manage to win your heart? I''m risked my life to save you from danger,


    but how am I not as good as a scheming b*tch who crawled onto your bed?"


    Prisci couldn''t understand what Nathaniel was thinking.


    Back then, she was fired from the military after she had one against her superior''s order. So, she


    had left both the military and Nathaniel. Hence, she thought that she would never meet Nathaniel


    ever again. However, her hopes reignited when Nathaniel asked Michael to set up the Baxter


    Alliance.


    Although she had not seen Nathaniel frequently in recent years, she was happy to know that he


    was still her superior. In order to help him with the mission, she resolutely returned to her


    hometown, a ce where she hated the most.


    She had stayed in Ango alone to build up their forces here so that Nathaniel would be safe when


    he visited here someday. Now the long- awaited time had finally arrived, but Nathaniel wasn''t alone


    anymore, and he had brought his wife along!


    If Prisci met Mango, how did she have to address thetter?


    Heh! Did she have to call Mango ''Mrs. Ye''?


    Haha, Mango didn''t deserve this title at all!


    At this thought, a cold glint shed across Prisci''s eyes.


    Suddenly, a servant''s voice came from outside.


    "Princess Prissy, Prince Lebanon is here."


    Prisci was slightly startled when she heard this.


    Well, well, she had almost forgotten her real name by now.


    Yes, she was one of the princesses in Ango, Prissy Argus, but the name sounded very unfamiliar


    to her. It was probably because there were very few people who had called her by the name since


    young.


    If her mother hadn''t fought hard to protect her and take her away, she would have been dead when


    she was just ten. Therefore, she just shook her head back then when Nathaniel asked her for her


    name.


    During that time, although Nathaniel was cold and indifferent, he was still very gentle and


    considerate. He held her in his arms, and it was the first time she had ever been hugged by


    someone other than her mother since was a child.


    She still remembered the warm hug, and she had felt reassured back then. Thus, she probably fell


    in love with Nathaniel at that time.


    After that, Nathaniel said, "Why don''t I call you Prisci Argus? I want you to be someone who is


    noble and strong! After all, I hope that you can forget the past hardships that you have gone through


    and live a blissful life now just like a Pheonix."


    She felt that this name was particrly pleasant to the ear and replied, "Then why didn''t you call me


    something else?"


    She still remembered Nathaniel''s response, "Therefore, I hope by naming you as Prisci, you can


    forget some of those hardships in the future and grow up happily."


    The corners of Nathaniel''s lips had risen slightly when he said these words, so Prisci felt warm all


    over immediately. Thus, she had found her purpose to live at that time.


    She wanted to improve herself so that she could be on par with the man in front of her!


    Therefore, she worked hard by epting all the arrangements and education provided to her.


    Furhtermore, she had endured all the hardships, even though she would have blisters at the end of


    each training. This was because she felt that it was worth it every time she heard Nathaniel praising


    her.


    But what about now?


    At this thought, Prisci was depressed.


    When the maid saw that Prisci didn''t reply, she couldn''t help but call out to her again.


    "Princess?"


    "Let him in then."


    Prisci immediately regained her senses and replied.


    In the past, she was not interested in the country''s issues at all, and she didn''t even bother to bond


    with her siblings.


    After all, no one lend her a helping hand when she and her mom were having a difficult time. In fact,


    her siblings didn''t do anything as well!


    Well, Lebanon was having a hard time fighting for his life back then, and everyone else was trying to


    kill him off. However, she never thought that he coulde back alive, and she never expected him


    to fight for the throne.


    She didn''t want to get involved in this fight before, but everything changed after she found out that


    Lebanon was actually Mango''s cousin. Well, this was something else she didn''t expect.


    Heh, Lebanon was her cousin!


    Then, what would this despicable woman named Mango Shen choose? Would she choose her


    family or love?


    Prisci''s lips curled into a smile at this thought.
