Chapter 1370
"Urgh! Your hair is messy!"
Nathaniel walked up to Mango while saying this furiously. Then, he patted the same ce that
Tristan had touched just now repeatedly as he wanted to remove Tristan''s scent from Mango.
D*mn it!
Tristan had ignored himpletely just now!
How could Tristan flirt with his wife so shamessly?
After he had returned home, he would need to settle this issue with Tristan.
At this thought, Nathaniel''s expression hardened. Right now, even the heavy make-up could not
hide his jealousy and enraged expression at the moment.
Mango wanted tough when she saw this, but she was afraid of provoking Nathaniel, so she could
only endure it.
"Well, let''s go out too. I don''t know how Prsici and Lebanon are doing now. Now that Tristan has
sent I and the other women away, we can start dealing with Bernard. He just gave me some pills,
so we can take advantage of this opportunity to add him these into his wine ss. Then, we can tie
him up without anyone noticing. What do you think?"
Mango came up with a detailed nned and said these out loud without realizing that Nathaniel had
an upset expression on his face.
"Wait, was he the one who gave you the poison that I ingested too?"
"Yeah, that''s correct."
Mango nodded, but she didn''t understand why Nathaniel would suddenly ask this question.
After hearing her answer, Nathaniel was upset again.
"Did he do the same thing to youst time?"
"What do you mean?"
Mango was slightly taken aback when she heard Nathaniel''s question. Then, she recalled what
Tristan had done to her just now and hurriedly said, "No, no. He was quite normalst time. Urgh! I
don''t know what''s wrong with him today!"
"Stay away from him in the future then."
"Alright, I got it."
Mango looked at Nathaniel''s upset expression and wanted tough. However, in the end, she held
back herughter.
"Well, Bernard is not easy to deal with. I don''t think it''s safe to put the poison in his wine. Instead,
we should find a room to hide and act only once we see an opportunity to do so."
"All right."
Of course, Mango would listen to Nathaniel''s orders when they were on a mission like this.
After that, the two of them quickly found a path and followed the waiters into the hall. Then, they
sneaked into one of the rooms there while no one was paying attention to them.
Next, Nathaniel hacked into the surveince cameras with the virtualputer in his hand before
sitting on the sofa in relief.
"Are you hungry? I''ll get you something to eat."
Nathaniel looked at Mango and asked with some concern.
"No, I''m not hungry for now. However, this room doesn''t look that bad. I think this is a guest room for
people who had eaten or drank too much to rest, right?"
"Hmm, I guess so."
Nathaniel didn''t have the answer to this question either.
Suddenly, they heard the crowdplimenting someone repeatedly outside.
Thus, Mango looked out from the crack of the our of curiosity door and saw a man with a mask
surrounded by a group of people. There was a imposing aura exuding from his body, and anyone
could notice him immediately even though they were standing far away."
"Is that Tristan''s substitute? I guess he was telling the truth then."
Nathaniel immediately reacted when he heard what Mango had said.
From the moment Tristan touched Mango''s head, Nathaniel had disliked Tristan. Now that she saw
that Mango was very concerned about Tristan, he couldn''t help but ask, "Urgh! What''s so good
about that brat? All he has is a handsome face!"
"A handsome face?"
Mango was slightly stunned when she heard this. Then, she remembered that Tristan was indeed
quite good-looking.
Well, if Mango had to describe Tristan in two words, she would call him a ''handsome schr''
indeed.
On the other hand, Nathaniel was furious when he saw that Mango was thinking about Tristan
seriously.
"Hey! Don''t think about him!"
He suddenly pulled Mango into his arms as he said this. Meanwhile, Mango was speechless when
she saw how overbearing he was acting.
"Haha! I''m your wife. What are you afraid of?"
"What? I''m not afraid! I just don''t want you to think about a man other than me."
Nathaniel had never known that he was so narrowminded. Mango usually kept her distance from
strangers, but why was she so interested in Tristan?
Thus, he felt that his rtionship with Mango was being threatened.
Then, Mango said in a somewhat amused manner, "Haha! Can you stop being this childish?"
"Well, I won''t allow it! If he dares to touch your head again in the future, I''ll cut off his eyes!"
There was a trace of cruelty in Nathaniel''s eyes as he said this as if he nned to do what he said.
"Alright, I get it. I was unprepared just now, but I won''t do it next time. I promise I won''t let anyone
touch my head again, okay?"
Mangoforted Nathaniel as he was acting childishly. However, she felt that Nathaniel was too
cute.
"Hmm? Then shouldn''t youpensate me because you made a mistake just now?"
Nathaniel wrapped his arms around Mango''s waist and pushed her against the door of the
room as he said this.
The door was as cold as ice, but Nathaniel''s body was warm. Hence, Mango was restless as she
was trapped between the both of them right now. Furthermore, Nathaniel was starting to get
aroused, so Mango was immediately embarrassed.
"Hey! We''ve already been married for so long, so can you be more serious? We''re now in our
enemies'' pce, so we can be exposed anytime! How can you still think about these things right
now?"
"Hmm? Don''t you think about this too? It doesn''t matter how long we''ve been married because we
can still warm each other, right? Also, I''m only trying to get thepensation I deserve."
As Nathaniel said that, he gently covered her lips with his.
Mango had initially wanted to refuse his kiss, but Nathaniel grabbed her hands and ced them on
top of her head with one hand. Then, he immediately pressed his lips harder on her and swept her
off her feet with a passionate kiss.
After that, Mango''s mind instantly went nk, so Nathaniel could do whatever he wanted.
Finally, he only released Mango when both of them needed to breathe. When he saw that her face
was red because she was out of breath, his eyes immediately darkened.
Even though they had been married for a long time, he still couldn''t resist Mango as she looked so
tempting and seductive. She was his only weakness, and she was also the one person that he
never wanted to let go of.
Right now, both of their hearts were thumping loudly, so they could hear each other''s heartbeats.
Then, Mango leaned into Nathaniel''s embrace and felt a sense of safety. Even though they were inFrom N?velDrama.Org.
a dangerous situation now, she felt that she could get through any hardships as long as Nathaniel
was with her.
Meanwhile, the atmosphere outside became lively as music started to y.
On the other hand, Nathaniel picked Mango up and ced her on the bed directly.
"Take a rest first. We need to moveter, so we shouldn''t waste any of our strength now. Why don''t I
go out and find you something to eat? You haven''t eaten anything today."
After saying that, Nathaniel tried to get up and leave, but Mango caught his arm immediately.
"Forget it, it''s too dangerous outside now, so it''ll be terrible if someone recognises us. Besides, I''m
not that hungry either."
"Well, that means that you must be a little hungry, right? How can I let my wife starve? Don''t worry,
I''ll be back soon."
After finishing his words, Nathaniel patted Mango''s face affectionately before getting up and
jumping out of the window.
Oh, well. It was toote for Mango to stop him.
Mango felt blissful when she saw that he would do this for her, but she was still worried.
She leaned against the door and looked out, only to find that Tristan was back.
He was standing next to the man that was impersonating him. Meanwhile, he was also drinking a lot
of wine in the doppelganger''s ce. Thus, he immediately caught the crowd''s eyes."
"Ladies and gentlemen, I''m sure all of you know Mr. Acker''s personality well. I''m his assistant, so
you all can tell me any of your requests."
After he had said that, the big shots in the crowd flocked to his side immediately.
Meanwhile, Prisci nced at these people who fawned over Tristan. She couldn''t help but sneer
and say, "Hehl They''re only bowing to him now because they want him to grant their requests. Bah!
I don''t know what they''re thinking. They also belong to the four most powerful families in Ango.
Even though Tristan is powerful and rich, how could they throw away their pride just like this?"
On the other hand, Maya waited on her from the side. When she heard what Prisci had said, she
said softly, "Princess, everyone''s wish is different. Besides, Mr. Acker is the new heir to the Acker
family, and he is young and capable. If we can work together with him, I''m sure that we will have a
brighter future too. After all, even the king wants him to be part of the military''s research team,
right?"
"Hah! I can''t believe that my father is so bold! Oh, well, let''s see whether Tristan willply with his
wishes then."
After all, Prisci was an arrogant person, so she couldn''t stand anyone who was more arrogant
than her. Now, she felt annoyed because Tristan had appeared and stole the spotlight away from
her. On the contrary, she felt that the assistant next to Tristan looked more pleasing to the eye.
"What''s the assistant''s name again?"
"Teagan Acker. I heard that he is an orphan that Mr. Acker adopted, and he grew up with Master
Tristan."
Well, Maya knew quite a bit about the Acker family.
"An orphan?"
However, when Prisci looked at Teagan, thetter didn''t look like an orphan at all. After all, he
wasughing and talking about serious matters with the most powerful families in Ango. Besides,
he had an attractive face as well, and he looked almost as handsome as Nathaniel.
Meanwhile, when Maya saw that Prisci was looking at Teagan, she hurriedly asked, "Princess,
are you interested in Mr. Acker''s assistant, Teagan?"
"Why are you asking this? Are you nning to introduce him to me?"
Even though Prisci was smiling as she asked this, the look in her eyes stunned Maya. Then,
Maya said fearfully, "I wouldn''t dare to do so, but my younger brother knows him well. I heard that
he has made many important decisions on Master Tristan''s behalf, and he is also a doctor as well."
"Oh? Is that so?"
Prisci raised her eyebrows and muttered when she heard what Maya had said. Meanwhile,
Laborn walked over with a ss of wine in his hand.
"Prissy, why are you standing alone in this corner? Why don''t you go ahead and greet everyone?
You''re only a young child, so you should socialize more instead of standing by yourself here! Go
ahead and wee the new heir of the Acker family. After all, both of you are around the same
age, so you all can get along well together."
Laborn handed the ss in his hand to Prisci as he said so.
After hearing this, Prisci was slightly startled. However, she immediately understood what Laborn
was trying to say.
Urgh! This devious b*stard!
Laborn couldn''t persuade Tristan to join him, so he was trying to ask Prisci to seduce Tristan
instead!
Urgh! Tristan was a man with a dismembered face, so she didn''t care whether he was the wealthy
heir to some powerful family.
After all, she had no interest in him.
She was only interested in men who had handsome faces!
However, she could see the warning in Laborn''s eyes. Therefore, she didn''t have a say in this
matter at all.
"All right."
Prisci answered sarcastically as she took the wine ss from Laborn''s hand.
If her guess was correct, Laborn must have drugged the wine ss in her hand.
However, she was a princess of the country. How could she ruin her reputation to win over a
businessman?
This was ridiculous!
Well, Prisci had always disliked Laborn, but now, she detested him.
Hah! Did he want her to seduce a man who had a ruined face?
She would never do that!
At this thought, Prisci held the wine ss in her hand and walked towards Tristan slowly.
On the other hand, the crowd was stunned to see Prisci walking over carrying her a wine cup.
Meanwhile, Prestin and Bernard snorted coldly.
Hah! Was she a princess?
No! She was merely a tool that the king could use to gather more forces! Therefore, how could he
allow her to lead a carefree and leisurely life?
Even though Prisci saw how other people were looking at her and knew what they were thinking,
what could she do?
Suddenly, she turned over and walked to Teagan, who talked andughed with the powerful
families.
"Hello, Mr. Teagen Acker, would like you to have a drink with me?"
