Chapter 1393
Nathaniel pulled out a dagger almost at the same time Mango spoke and stabbed in the direction of
Mango''s leg.
As he felt the de piercing into the skin, Nathaniel''s face suddenly became serious.
He wanted to grab the person hiding in the water, but the person escaped like a slippery loach.
Then, there was blood in the water, ring back at them.
The moment Mango obtained her freedom, she grabbed her clothes and wrapped them around
herself.
Seeing that she was fully dressed, Nathaniel called Tristan.
By the time Tristan''s men arrived, the blood in the water had already disappeared. However, Tristan
did not doubt Nathaniel and Mango''s words at all.
"Search the area! How dare they sneak into the Acker family''s territory. What''s security doing?"
Tristan''s face darkened.
If Nathaniel hadn''t been by Mango''s side and she had taken a bath on her own, who knew what
would''ve happened?
"Teagan, can you ask my father whether the bottom of the hot spring is connected to the outside?"
The hot spring was a natural underground hot spring, and the mouth of it was here, but it had been
extended to the outside. In the past, Tristan had thought that no one would dare to do anything to
the Acker family and that there should be precautions here, so he didn''t pay much attention to it. If
that person hadn''te in through the front gate, then it was very likely that he came in through the
river outside.
Teagan quickly went to call Arlo.
If Tristan''s guess was right, it would be dangerous here.
Nathaniel couldn''t wait for Arlo''s reply and said in a low voice, "I''ll go down there and take a look."
"Nathan, we don''t know how deep it is. You''d better wait for Mr. Acker."
Mango was very worried.
The hand just now was cold and had no temperature. When she was caught, it had felt like she was
caught by a ghost. Although she didn''t believe in them, she was still a little scared at that moment.
Now when she heard that Nathaniel was going to go down, she couldn''t help but shake her head.
Nathaniel touched her face and said softly, "I''ll be fine. Don''t worry. You should dry your hair. Don''t
catch a cold. Wait for me here."
"But..."
"Trust me."
Nathaniel''s eyes were so gentle and firm, and it made Mango speechless for a moment.
"Be careful. I won''t leave until youe back."
This was equivalent to using her own body to threaten Nathaniel.
Nathaniel smiled dotingly at Mango''s childish movements and tone.
"Alright."
After saying that, he looked at Tristan and found that he was looking at him too, which made him
stop smiling.
"I need diving equipment."
"We have it."
Then, Tristan sent someone to fetch it.
"How about I go?"
Tristan could tell that Nathaniel was really good to Mango, and no one else could get intervene in
their rtionship. Therefore, even if he felt ufortable because Prisci liked Nathaniel, he had
no choice but to think for Mango at this
moment.
"It''s alright. I''ll go and have a look. Please take care of the Mango for me."
"Alright."
Soon, Nathaniel put on the diving equipment and jumped down.
Mango looked at the surface of the water with a worried frown.
Her hair was wet, and thinking of Nathaniel''s words, Tristan said in a low voice, "Get me a
hairdryer."
Immediately, someone handed Tristan a hairdryer.
Then, he turned on the hairdryer and gently dried Mango''s hair. Mango was startled and said with
embarrassment, "Tristan, I''ll do it myself."
"Let me do it. I know you''re worried about him, but although the water is very deep, it''s nothing for
Nathaniel. You should believe in him. If you don''t dry your hair now, you''ll catch a coldter and he''s
going to me me. I haven''t slept sincest night, you know. Can you just humor your brother?"
Hearing Tristan''s words, Mango felt a little embarrassed.
"Tristan, I''m sorry that you didn''t have a good rest because of the surgery." "Silly girl, how is it your
fault?" The corner of Tristan''s mouth was slightly raised and his movements were also very gentle.
Meanwhile, as soon as Prisci woke up, she heard that something had happened in the hot spring,
so she immediately got Maya to change her clothes and hurried over. When she saw that Tristan
was drying Mango''s hair gently, she couldn''t help but frown.
"What are you guys doing?"
Prisci deliberately raised her voice.
Even if Tristan was Mango''s older brother, there were still many people present. Besides, Mango
was no longer a child. Was it really appropriate to let Tristan blow her hair like this?
And what would Nathaniel think?
As Prisci thought about this, she walked straight over to them and said to Tristan, "Give me the
hairdryer. You''re a man and look how sloppy you are. Don''t hurt my sister-inw."
She said those words boldly and confidently, but it made Tristan frown slightly.
"Sister-inw?"
"Yeah, she is Nathaniel''s wife, and he is my superior. Of course she''s my sister-inw."
Prisci took advantage of Tristan''s brief moment of shock to snatch the hairdryer from him.
Although she didn''t want to help Mango, she would still do it as Mango was Nathaniel''s wife.
Tristan did not object to this.
Besides, he really didn''t know how to blow-dry her hair.
Seeing Prisci taking over her job, Tristan took a step back and said, "Don''t call her your sister-in-
law."
"You care too much. Why can''t I call her that?"
Prisci was a little angry.
When she heard Maya say that she had fainted, she remembered that it was because she was
angry at Tristan. Now that she saw him, she felt even more annoyed.
Meanwhile, Mango really wanted to take her hair back from Prisci.
The atmosphere between the two people felt like a time bomb, and she was afraid of suffering the
disaster when it finally exploded.
However, before Mango could say anything, Tristan said in a low voice, "I''m Mango''s brother, and
you''re my woman. If she is your sister-inw, so what will you call me?"
These words angered Prisci in an instant.
"Tristan, shut up! When have I ever been your woman? If you spit nonsense again, believe it or
not, I will destroy you."
However, Tristan said calmly, "Aren''t you? Then would you like me to tell you where your birthmark
is?"
As soon as he said this, Prisci''s face suddenly turned red.
No one knew about the birthmark on her body except Maya. How did he know?
Recalling the memories of the two years that she had lost, Prisci''s expression darkened.
What Tristan said was too much information. He even knew her birthmark that was hidden! Did they
really do it back then?
After all, that birthmark was on her butt.
With such thoughts, Prisci began to wander off and her hand shook a little. A strand of Mango''s
hair was immediately caught in the hairdryer.
"Hey, hey! It hurts!"
Mango was in so much pain that she was about to cry.
These two had gone too far! They had actually tried to hurt her while Nathaniel was not around.

It was only then did Prisci regain her senses and began to panic when she saw Mango''s hair
being sucked into the hairdryer.
"Oh no!"
Tristan paused slightly, then broke the power source. Then, he took some scissors and cut off the
hair with a snip.
Mango, who had regained her freedom, stood up quickly and stepped away from them. She looked
at the hair caught in the hairdryer and said gloomily, "Can you two stop bickering? I''m going to tell
Nathan about you two!"
Mango''s heart ached for her hair.
The hair she had worked so hard to grow was cut off in a sh.
When Prisci heard that Mango was about to tell Nathaniel, she hurriedly threw the hairdryer in her
hand into Tristan''s arms and said, "It has nothing to do with me. Tristan did it. Look, the weapon is
in his hands. Besides, he cut your hair with scissors. He is the culprit."
Tristan could not help shaking his head when he saw how shameless Qingluan was. However, a
hint of affection flitted across his eyes.
Mango had never seen Prisci speak such nonsense so matter-of-factly like this. It was truly an
eye-opener for her.
"Your Highness, you''re such a talent!"
After Mango finished, she rubbed her scalp and whispered, "Okay, you two can do whatever you
want, but please stay away from me. I don''t need to dry my hair anymore. Thank you."
As she spoke, she took two steps back.
Prisci was a little depressed.
"Mango!"
"Stop. Stay there. Don''te near me."
Mango quickly stopped Prisci.
The tension had been ruined by the two of them.
Tristan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw how the twodies were getting along with each other.
He''d thought that Mango would be angry at Prisci because of Prisci''s feelings for Nathaniel, but
now it seemed like that wasn''t the case at all.
Or could it be that Mango didn''t notice Prisci''s feelings?
Tristan''s brain was running quickly, but he didn''t say anything and directly gave the hairdryer to
Maya.
Prisci signaled at Maya with her eyes, and Maya immediately understood. She hurriedly pulled
out the hair from the hairdryer to avoid letting Nathaniel notice when he came back.
Mango looked at the calm surface of the hot spring and asked softly, "Tristan, do you think that the
Acker family would have thought of building a barrier if the hot spring could really be essed from
the outside? How could it be so easy for others toe in?" "I''ll investigate it thoroughly. You''d
better note to the hot spring until we get to the bottom of this."
"Alright."
Mango was already traumatized by the earlier incident, and even if Tristan hadn''t warned her, she
wouldn''te again herself either.
"What happened exactly?"
Prisci only knew that something had happened here, but she didn''t have the time to ask what had
happened. Now that she heard Mango''s words, she couldn''t help but ask.
After Tristan told her the story, Prisci''s eyes sank.
"Was he... a pervert? He hid under the water but had specifically grabbed Mango''s leg. Is he trying
to peep at her? Don''t tell me that you''ve been seen naked?"
As soon as the words left her mouth, Mango immediately felt ufortable.
She had been so focused on her fear earlier that she didn''t even think about this. Now that Prisci
mentioned it, she couldn''t help thinking about what had happened earlier and couldn''t help but
blush from anger.
"I''ll find him and dig out his eyes!"
Good heavens!
She didn''t know there were other people down there, and she didn''t mind being stark naked in front
of Nathaniel as they were a couple. Who would expect that there was a person in the water?
She didn''t know if the person was a man or a woman. What if it was a man...
Mango felt ufortable as soon as she thought about it.
Damn it!
She was actually seen naked!
