Chapter 1414


    Earlier, he was worried that if he told Brantley about Magnolia, the former would be hasty and ruin


    their ns. Furthermore, it would be worse Magnolia had no feelings of affection towards Brantley!


    What if she was trying to take advantage or revenge on him? As she was taken away since young,


    no one could understand her intentions, but they didn''t want to risk anything either.


    Now that Magnolia had Barack by her side and wanted sincerely to be together with him, Nathaniel


    felt that it was necessary to tell Brantley the truth.


    At this thought, Nathaniel told Brantley everything that had happened.


    After hearing the entire story, Brantley was infuriated.


    "Are you trying to say that who kidnapped my daughter then was Laborn Fang?"


    "That''s right! Laborn Fang even raised Aunt Magnolia as an assassin since young. When he saw


    that she fell in love with Barack, he took Barack hostage and used him to force Magnolia into


    bing his seventh wife. She even bore him a son, who is Lebanon Fang. But before this, Aunt


    Magnolia also had a son with Barack. She hid this from everyone and gave birth to him in secret for


    his safety and gave him away to the Acker family. I think Bettany helped Aunt Magnolia greatly back


    then. After all, having a son by herself is no easy feat, unless she had someone with medical


    knowledge by her side. Coincidentally, Bettany was good friends with Aunt Magnolia."


    Nathaniel told Brantley his spections.


    Upon hearing this, Brantley started bing emotional.


    He had thought that he would be lonely for the rest of his life, but he never expected to have a


    daughter left!


    Brantley had always felt guilty towards his oldest daughter. He didn''t protect her well then, and


    because of that, he couldn''t preserve his rtionship with his wife. His family fell apart after that,


    and they never saw their daughter again, even till the day of his wife''s death.


    But now, he never expected to hear that Magnolia was still alive, and she had even given him two


    grandsons. Hence, Brantley felt exhrated.


    "Where is she now? Can I see her?"


    Nathaniel whispered, "Grandpa, she is with Barack at Santell Capital now. Master Mo has sent


    people to take care of them. If you want to see them, you can call Master Mo and ask if Aunt


    Magnolia is willing to see you."


    Nathaniel felt that Brantley was already old, so thetter could do away with some of his regrets.


    After all, if he were to pass away one day, Magnolia would not be able to see him again even if she


    wanted to.


    After hearing this, Brantley was clear on what he needed to do.


    "Alright, I''ll call Master Mo right away! Please take good care of Mango."


    "She''s my wife. It''s my duty to do anything for her."


    Nathaniel didn''t bother acting melodramatic as he said this.


    After hanging up the phone, Nathaniel breathed a sigh of relief.


    If he wasn''t worried that Mango would visit the Xiao family to see Brantley, Nathaniel wouldn''t have


    told him about Magnolia at this point. In the end, he was still frightened.


    The mastermind even dared to shoot at Mango on the open streets in Ocean City. If Mango went


    out again, this would give the killer another chance to assassinate her. However, Mango would


    ignore his advice since she was still mad at him.


    Hence, if Brantleywent to Santell Capital, Mango would have no reason to leave the house.


    Wait! That wasn''t right!


    There were still Walter and Deborah left!


    Nathaniel suddenly felt that he was in a tough situation.


    Well, if he wanted to get his wife''s forgiveness and to protect her, he needed to get rid of the people


    around them.


    s! He was still a wounded patient!


    However, his wife didn''t feel sorry for him at all.


    At this thought, Nathaniel felt miserable as he took out his phone to call Walter.


    When Walter heard Nathaniel say that thetter would pay the expenses for Walter and Deborah to


    go for a medical checkup in Colorado, he was stunned momentarily.


    "Why are you suddenly acting so kind?"


    "Look, I just don''t want Mango to visit you anytime soon."


    Nathaniel told Walter the truth immediately.


    Then, Walter immediately looked at the news about Mango''s incident on his phone before asking


    deliberately, "Who is the mastermind? Have you found them?"


    "It should have something to do with Ango. I''m in the middle of my investigation, so Mango should


    stay home during this time. As you know, if she wants to go out, I can''t stop her. But if you guys are


    not in Ocean City, she''ll have nowhere to go."


    "I understand. Transfer the money to my bank ount. Don''t worry, I''ll leave with Deborah


    immediately."


    Walter was straightforward, but Nathaniel was a little unhappy.


    If he had known that Walter would agree to this so readily for Mango, he wouldn''t have said that he


    would cover their expenses.


    "Doesn''t the Grey family have money?"


    "Hmm... the money belongs to my father-inw, and I don''t like spending other people''s money."


    Walter said leisurely.


    Nathaniel scoffed after hearing this.


    "Heh! Sminorf Corporation seems to be doing well recently."


    "Huh? I can''t bear to spend my money."


    "D*mn you!"


    After cursing, Nathaniel hung up the phone angrily. He felt aggrieved at first but then felt at ease as


    he thought of Mango.


    Well, he would let Walter gloat for two days. Besides, he didn''t mind spending some money as long


    as he could get Walter to leave. After all, this money was nothing to him!


    Nathaniel then transferred a hundred dors to Walter.


    When Walter saw the hundred dors, he scolded Nathaniel immediately.


    "D*mn it! How could you pay for our expenses with this measly sum?"


    "Well, it''s just half an hour''s drive to Colorado. I think a hundred dors is enough for a round trip."


    Nathaniel said it as a matter of course.


    Walter immediately sneered in reply


    "Well, well. How generous of you, Mr. Ye!"


    "Of course! I wouldn''t give anyone else a hundred dors."


    Now that Nathaniel had taken out the frustrations that he had gotten from Mango on Walter, he felt


    so much better.


    But before Nathaniel could enjoy himself for a while more, Walter taunted and said, "I think that my


    body''s in great condition recently. Hmm... maybe my wife and I should stay at your house for a few


    days. There must be a lot that she wants to share with Mango, right? Besides, I have also been


    wanting to catch up with Mango for some time. Alright! I will go over with Deborah in a while."

    Nathaniel''s face suddenly became gloomy when


    he heard this.


    "Walter, don''t push it. Do you want me to set my dogs on you?"


    "Shouldn''t you be worried that Mango would ignore you even more if you do so? After all, I am her


    beloved cousin. Don''t you have any idea of your status right now?"


    Walter''s arrogant behavior made Nathaniel tremble with rage.


    Urgh! He would let this scoundrel get his way this time!


    "I will give you three thriving stores on Segan Street! Will that work?"


    "Wow! My brother-inw is such a generous man. Thanks! Oh, also! Remember to transfer the


    ownership to my wife. Well, then, we will pack up and get out of here immediately."


    After saying that, Walter hung up the phone.


    Nathaniel red at Walter''s phone number and thought, "One of these days, I will have you return


    the three stores to me double fold."


    After the call, Nathaniel felt a little more rxed.


    Right now, the only thing he could do was increase the security around them and wait for the results


    of the investigation to arrive. After all, his body couldn''t recover in a short amount of time either.


    As he thought of Mango''s condition, he picked up his phone once again and called Carlson.


    To Carlson, Nathaniel and Mango had done him a great favour by bringing Aunt Mo back to him.


    Now that he saw Nathaniel''s call, he naturally picked it up quickly.


    "Are you calling to im your reward? Or do you have something else to tell me?"


    "Lend me a troop of your men to protect my wife."


    Nathaniel did not waste any time and directly stated his request.


    Carlson replied immediately, "I saw the news and have begun my investigation. My men are already


    on their way and will arrive in about half an hour. Don''t worry. I will turn the Ye''s Mansion into an


    impregnable fortress that no one can enter."


    "Thanks, Master Mo!"


    "We''rerades, so you don''t have to be so polite!"


    After hanging up the phone, Nathaniel was finally relieved.


    The Mo family''s army consists of actual military personnel. Hence, Nathaniel felt less worried as


    they were reliable enough to protect Mango.


    However, Nathaniel was now awake as he needed to take care of this incident.


    Since the attack at Ango, the other party had been targeting Mango specifically. Who did Mango


    offend in the first ce?


    At this thought, Nathaniel racked his brains for a name.


    Well, Nathaniel had already ruled out Laborn Fang before this. As he went through the list of names


    in his head again, he discovered that none of them had a definite motivation to kill Mango, except


    for one person.


    It was Bernard Gaylord!


    Back then, it was Mango who shot through Bernard Gaylord''s head as a sniper. If anyone wanted


    desperately for Mango to be dead, it would be him.


    However, Bernard was already dead. Hence, how could the dead be resurrected?


    Then, Nathaniel had an epiphany as something shed through his mind.


    After that, he quickly turned on theputer and then speedily typed on the keyboard. Before long,


    he hacked into the personnel system of Ango and found that Bernard''s household registration


    had been terminated.


    Was he mistaken?


    When Bernard died then, Nathaniel''s men had buried him and given his body to As. If the body


    was not Bernard''s, why would As and Laborn fight amongst each other?


    Suddenly, Nathaniel felt that he was thinking too much.


    After all, it was impossible for a dead person to be revived!


    This thought nipped his deduction in the bud. However, if it wasn''t Bernard, who else would want


    Mango dead so badly?


    To be more urate, Nathaniel had offended far more people than Mango. Even if the other party


    wanted to kill him, they should have sought him out. Why were they targeting Mango this time?


    Other than when Mango sniped Bernard in the head, Nathaniel really couldn''t think of anyone else


    who would target Mango like that.


    Thus, his reasoning came to a dead end.


    Suddenly, Nathaniel felt a headacheing on.


    He rubbed his temples as he drank a ss of water. When he turned on the TV, the program was


    about the ongoing census.


    However, Nathaniel changed the channel after a nce.


    The other programs were on finance and such, and he felt more irritated after looking at them.


    As long as Mango''s assant remained hidden,


    Nathaniel would continue to feel restless. This situation was like a ticking time bomb, and it could


    destroy them at any time.


    Urgh! Who on earth was it?


    Nathaniel seemed to have entered a constrained logical line of thought. It was at this moment that


    Zion called him, so this startled him.


    Did the kid know about his injury? If so, what about the other two kids?


    Nathaniel suddenly felt his head ached even more. However, he had to pick up his son''s call. Thus,


    Nathaniel tapped the answer button and heard Zion ask anxiously, "Daddy, did you see the news?


    There''s one more person in the newest census of Ango."


    "What''s strange about having more people? The purpose of the census is to know how many


    personnel we have. In the past, if anyone didn''t register their household for special reasons, we


    would check and fill in the vacancy through the census. Although Ango is not arge country, it''s


    very normal to have one more person."


    Nathaniel said lightheartedly, but he heard Zion say, "Well, this person is different. His surname is


    Fang, and he is from the royal family."
