Chapter 1367


    Nathaniel hid Mango behind her and looked at I with mixed emotions. Then he whispered, "Don''t


    listen to her. We''re in Ango, so we won''t know whether Mateo is here or not. Let''s look into it


    before making a decision."


    Obviously, he didn''t believe I.


    When I heard this, a bitter smile appeared on her lips.


    She had made a lot of mistakes, so she couldn''t me Nathaniel for not believing her.


    "Mateo''s troops are in this city. I''m still a member of the Fang family, so I know a little bit about this


    news. Mateo left Z Country on a secret missionst year because he came here to investigate the


    disappearance of the children of the senior officials. The girls here are all daughters of high officials


    from all different countries. So, Laborn asked Prestin to guard them. Thus, he made them wear this


    indecent clothing to prevent them from running away. This way, even if they managed to run


    outside, they wouldn''t be shameless enough to leave the pce. Also, Randy and the other guards


    are tasked to watch over them, and I''m in charge of preparing their food."


    I told Nathaniel and Mango everything she knew.


    Then, Mango looked at the girls curled up in the cage and could not help but feel a little distressed.


    These girls used to be the apple of their parents'' eyes, and they were even born in rich families.


    However, Laborn had not imprisoned them in this underground prison. Hence, it was obvious that


    Laborn favoured and trusted Prestin a lot.


    "Why does Laborn think so highly of Prestin?"


    Well, Mango hated I, and she would even tremble when she recalled what I had done in the


    past. However, now that I was in such a horrible situation, she had paid for her crimes as well.


    Hence, Mango did not n to get revenge on I as well. Furthermore, I was the one who had


    raised Nathaniel, so Mango felt that it was better to leave this to the country.


    Meanwhile, I looked at Mango and was in deep thought. Five years ago, Mango had loved


    Nathaniel timidly. However, she was now a confident and brave woman, so I had mixed feelings.


    Previously, Mango had treated her respectfully as her mother-inw. However, I had ruined this


    family on her own!


    At this thought, a hint of guilt and grief shed in I''s eyes. She then said, "Prestin''s parents


    belong to the Barnes family. They have been developing well outside, so Laborn thinks highly of


    them."


    This meant that the family of Prestin''s mother had powerful connections.


    Mango immediately understood what was going on when she heard this.


    Then, Nathaniel looked at I and asked in a low voice, "I think that the technology here in Ango


    is pretty advanced. Thus, I''m sure that they reap enormous amounts of profits every year. So, why


    do As and Laborn want to take over the mine in my country?"


    However, I shook her head and said, "Of course, Ango can support itself if they want to


    develop normally. However, the king has been working on military research and nuclear weapon


    research all these years. This research needs a lot of talent and money, but our country is not rich.


    We have invested a lot of money in military affairs and research funds. Therefore, As has been


    stealing money from foreign countries to support the domestic research and military development."


    Well, now that I had said this, Nathaniel understood why Laborn and As had no choice but to


    steal the mine.


    "So you stole our country''s military defence ns because Laborn ordered you to do so?"


    Nathaniel looked at I while he asked this. In the past, he did not have any time to ask about


    these matters, but he had to understand the truth today. After all, there would be no chance to do so


    in the future.


    Well, I would be judged and punished after she was delivered back to the country. She could be


    either shot or buried to death. Initially, Nathaniel thought that he didn''t care about such matters


    anymore, but he was wrong.


    Upon hearing Nathaniel''s question, I nodded.


    Now that she had ended up in such a state, she could admit everything she had done.


    "In the beginning, the king wanted Koiton''s gic research, andter, he got your military ns.


    Although the Ye family does not have a lot of descendants, all of them are talented. Hence, Laborn


    has always been targeting the Ye family.


    Nathaniel''s eyes darkened a little when he heard this.


    "Were you the one who spread rumours about Nick fighting with other people in the past?"


    Nathaniel could never forget about this incident.


    After all, Nathaniel knew that Nick was not someone who would fight with others. Even if he


    was young and immature, he believed that his brother knew how to control himself. Now, he had


    been suspecting this for so many years, so he wanted to get to the bottom of this incident today.


    When Nathaniel mentioned Nick, I had a sad expression.


    "Nick has always been a good and filial child. I wasn''t the one who came up with the rumours about


    him fighting with others. However, after that incident, Laborn wanted me to spread this incident. I


    thought that only Nick''s reputation would be ruined through this, but I didn''t expect As to send


    someone to assassinate Nick even though thetter was injured! Furthermore, he also pushed all


    the me on Nick. Obviously, they wanted Nick to die. Well, the Ye family only has two children,


    you and Nick. Even though Nick is less talented than you, I think it''s better to have more children in


    the family. However, at that time, they had their eyes on you because you knew how to deal with the


    military affairs well, so they only wanted you. Hence, they plotted this whole affair. I couldn''t bear to


    see Nick die, so I informed you about this and sent him away beforehand. s! I thought that I


    could save his life, but he ended up dying there too!"


    After hearing what I had said, Nathaniel remembered that he had sent Nick away in a hurry


    because someone had reminded him about this through an anonymous letter.


    At that time, no one had been able to find out who the sender of the letter was. Now, he finally knew


    that it was I!


    So she actually cared about both of them, right?


    At this thought, Nathaniel felt that this was ridiculous.


    I was a spy that had betrayed the country, but he still allowed her to exin the reason behind


    her actions.


    Suddenly, Nathaniel''s expression hardened, and he said to Mango, "Contact Uncle Mateo and see


    where he is."


    "All right."


    Mango turned on the phone very cautiously. Then, Nathaniel turned on the virtualputer and


    started to interfere with the signal.


    Well, Mateo''s number had changed because he was using the military signal. After Nathaniel told


    Mango the new number, someone answered her call.


    "Who is it?"


    "Uncle Mateo, it''s me!"


    When Mango heard Mateo''s voice, she was excited.


    After Mateo left the Hans family and Ocean City, she began to miss him.


    On the other hand, Mateo was stunned when he heard Mango''s voice. He immediately realized that


    this was a military number and couldn''t help but think of something.


    "Is Nathan with you?"


    "Yeah, he is. We are now in the pce of Ango. Uncle Mateo, we found some girls who are


    daughters of high officials in the country. Now, we don''t have the capabilities to take them away on


    our own. Uncle Mateo, is it possible for you toe in and take them away?"


    Mango quickly told Mateo about this matter.


    After all, they only had a limited time to talk. If she could not finish her sentence quickly, other


    people could track them once they detected their signal.


    On the other hand, Mateo would never have thought that Mango and Nathaniel would settle the


    mission he had nned carefully this quickly.


    He hurriedly asked, "Is that ce safe now?"


    "Yeah, it would be safe."


    Right now, Randy was not here, and Prestin had already gone to the banquet. Therefore, they


    would probablye back at night, so this ce would be safe for now.


    After hearing Mango''s words, Mateo hurriedly said, "Hmn, I can''t enter the pce because I''ve


    thought of many methods that can''t bepleted. Right now, my people and I are hiding in the


    downtown area of the city. Every day, we have to travel with extreme caution, so it''s absolutely


    impossible for us to go in and take those people away. However, you can find someone to help. He


    might have a way to bring them out."


    "Who are you talking about?"


    "Tristan Acker."


    Mateo''s words stunned Mango once again.


    Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Tristan''s name had been brought up again!


    Who was earth was Tristan?


    "Uncle Mateo, who is Tristan? Can we trust him?"


    As soon as Mango finished speaking, Mateo said in a low voice, "Tristan is thest person that


    would harm you in this world. Mango, I don''t have time to exin it to you now. Listen to me, find


    Tristan and tell him about this matter. Then, get him to arrange for you to leave the pce as soon


    as possible. It''s too dangerous!"


    After hearing this, Nathaniel frowned slightly but said nothing. However, he suddenly cut up their


    communication signal.


    "Nathan? What''s wrong?"


    Mango was a little confused as she. Then, Nathaniel whispered, "Someone is tracking our signal."


    Well, in that case, they had no choice but to end the call between her and Mateo.


    Meanwhile, I was slightly surprised when she heard Tristan''s name.


    "Tristan? Is he talking about Tristan from the Acker Acker? The renowned doctor, Tristan Acker,


    right?"


    "Huh? Do you also know who he is?"


    Mango looked at I with a hint of caution in her eyes as she asked this.


    I nodded when she heard this question, and she had naturally noticed how alert Mango was.


    However, she had betrayed Mango once, so she knew that she couldn''t me thetter for treating


    her this way.


    Then, she whispered, "Tristan should be a genius. He was very weak when he was a child. Some


    people even said that he probably wouldn''t live past 12 years old. However, he lived past the age of


    twelve, and he is very healthy right now too! Tristan has been learning medicine since he was five


    years old, and he has even nursed his own body back to health. You all know that Laborn has


    always been researching about genes, and he even sent someone to steal Koiton''s research. This


    was because he wanted to produce more soldiers that could fight in the war, but no one could


    complete this research. Hence, he always wanted to bring Tristan into this n, but he had no


    chance to do so."


    "Huh? How could he not have a chance to do so? After all, Tristan is one of Ango''s citizens, right?


    Therefore, if Laborn gives Tristan an order, how could thetter go against the king?"


    Mango asked as she was curious.


    Then, I said with a smile, "Yes, any citizen of Ango cannot go against the king''s orders.


    However, when Tristan was only sixteen years old, he used his connections to change his


    nationality. Thus, he is now one of the citizens of Z Country."


    "What? He belongs to Z Country?!"


    Mango and Nathaniel were both surprised when they heard this.


    How did he be their one their fellow citizens.


    "Is the Acker family not from Ango?"


    "Yes, that''s correct."


    I continued to say certainly, "The Acker family has always been one of the most powerful families


    in Ango. However, they lost their spot as one of the four most powerful families in Ango as they


    were part of the internal strife of the pce. On the other hand, they have also been building up


    their forces these few years. I heard that Tristan, the current heir of the family, is an illegitimate son.


    His mother worked in a bar, and she died while giving birth to him as she had lost too much blood.


    Therefore, no one knows why he decided to change his nationality, including his father."
