    Chapter 1547


    Mango and Nathaniel looked at each other and asked, "Can you contact Weston now?"


    "Yes, of course!"


    Marcelo nodded in response.


    He took out his mobile phone and called Weston straight away. However, thetter did not pick up


    the call today even though he was someone who would always answer his phone.


    Marcelo furrowed his brows slightly.


    Nathaniel and Mango began to understand something.


    It seemed that Weston was a fishy guy.


    "Look into Weston Ramirez."


    Nathaniel left and said to the men outside. He had nothing to hide from Marcelo, so after one of the


    bodyguards left, he came back.


    Marcelo knew that something was amiss as well.


    "Did Westonmit a crime or something?"


    "Are you his close friend? Do you know everything about him?"


    Marcelo was silent for a moment after hearing Nathaniel''s words. Then he whispered, "We''re just


    together for the sex. As for his job, I heard that he works in a casino nearby. But he will go missing


    for a while every month. I asked him about it once. He said that he was doing something for the


    boss and told me not to ask questions."


    At that time, Marcelo didn''t think about it too much. He thought that it would be good for them if


    Weston could make more money. After all, they could lead a good life if Weston was rich. But now,


    he thought that Weston had to be up to no good when he disappeared.


    "What''s the casino? Do you know its name?"


    "It''s called Dreamlight Casino. It''s just nearby."


    Mango understood a little more after Marcelo said this.


    "Are you going over there?"


    "It''s always good to have a look. Maybe we can find Walter there."


    Nathaniel did intend to do so.


    However, Mango shook her head and said, "No, if the other party knows of us, they would have


    already known how you look like. You''ll only alert them if you go rashly."


    "What do we do?"


    "I should be the one who goes."


    Marcelo said in an effort to persuade them.


    Nathaniel looked at him and replied coldly, "Are you going to snitch on us?"


    "No, you have my parents. How can I betray you? Moreover, Weston and I are only friends with


    benefits. He has money to support my lifestyle, so we have always maintained our rtionship.


    Now that I know who Tessa''s lover is, I also know who I have offended, so naturally, I know what I


    should do."


    Marcelo was indeed a smart person.


    Mango was still slightly worried. She took out a small bottle from her pocket, took a pill, and passed


    it to Marcelo. She said nonchntly, "This is poison with an antidote. If you handle it well, I will give


    you the antidote. If you run away, there''s nothing you can do to cure the poison. I''m sure you


    understand that we don''t trust you at all. This is our only choice. If you''re afraid or have other


    opinions, you can choose not to take it."


    "I''ll take it."


    Marcelo swallowed the pill without any second thought.


    Nathaniel and Mango frowned a little, but they remained silent.


    Marcelo stood up and left the house. He was headed to Dreamlight Casino.


    Nathaniel looked at Mango and smiled, "Whye I didn''t know that you have poison?"


    "Ahem, Tristan gave it to me. It''s a pill for supplement."


    Mango was quite embarrassed.


    Meanwhile, Nathaniel narrowed his eyes slightly.


    Was Tristan still not well? When would he make aeback?


    He still needed to operate on Barney''s throat.


    However, Nathaniel didn''t say anything because he didn''t want Mango to miss him.


    "Who on earth is this Weston that Marcelo was talking about?"


    "I''m not sure, but we should receive the news soon. If my guess is right, this man has something to


    do with the head of the Soo family, Susan."


    Nathaniel felt that this house smelled pretty bad. When he thought of what was going on between


    Weston and Marcelo, he was a little disgusted.


    He pulled Mango out of the house and stood outside while basking in the sun. Only then did he feel


    a little better.


    "Why did you say that?"


    Mango didn''t ask any further question. She followed him outside and sat down.


    Nathaniel said in a low voice, "There are many coincidences in this world, but when a few of them


    happen together, it''s not a coincidence anymore. Instead, it''s a scheme. See, when Susan schemed


    against Tessa, the Li family happened to encounter a problem, so Tessa needed to marry Marcelo


    in order to save the Soo family. Besides, the Grey family never had a problem with their ships, but


    bad things happened when the Li family''s goods were delivered. Then Tessa and Marcelo got


    married. Susan drugged Marcelo and made him lose his manhood. I had been thinking that this


    didn''t seem like what Susan would do."


    Mango had nevere face-to-face with Susan before, so she didn''t know how to respond to


    Nathaniel.


    "Do you know Susan personally?"


    "Not really, but I do know who he is. I''ve heard about him from Noah. Although he is impatient and


    wants to expand the influence of the Soo family, he is not brave nor ambitious enough to do so.


    That''s why he has only made little progress for so many years. He will think everything over


    carefully before he does it. In Tessa''s case, he forced her to marry Marcelo with his schemes. In


    fact, the best way to dispose of Tessa''s desire to be the head of the Soo family was to let her


    fall in love with Marcelo. Then she would serve the Li family with all her heart. However, he sent


    someone to poison Marcelo. This sparked a conflict between Tessa and Marcelo. It''s not beneficial


    for him at all."


    Mango said instantly after Nathaniel finished his words, "Didn''t Susan say that he hates Tessa very


    much?"


    "Would an elder deploy such a despicable method against his family even though he hates her?


    Moreover, it''s just the fight for the position of the head of the family. I don''t think hatred is the right


    word. Tessa has always been the pride of the Soo family from a young age. If Susan is jealous of


    her talent, he wouldn''t have to wait until Tessa ispeting to be the head of the family to ruin


    her. Wouldn''t it be much easier for him to kill Tessa when she was young? Therefore, it sounds


    reasonable to pin Susan as the culprit, but it isn''t logical at all. Moreover, Susan said that this was


    done to protect Tessa and her child. In the future, if Carlson were to find out about them, they would


    be their bargaining chips for more benefits. But how could Susan not know who Carlson really is? If


    Carlson were to know about this incident, would Susan be able to stay alive until this day?


    Furthermore, if Susan really nned this, why did he not threaten Carlson with this during the eight


    whole years? Why did he do nothing? Instead, he forced Tessa to go abroad. He didn''t allow her to


    keep in contact with anyone. Wouldn''t that contradict his purpose?"


    Mango felt that Nathaniel''s words made sense.


    "So, it''s very likely that Susan has something to do with Weston, or in other words, that fake butler


    of the Grey family, Ezequiel?"


    "That''s it."


    Nathaniel''s eyes darkened as he said, "Mango, do you think Ezequiel has something to do with


    Javion?"


    "Javion Liu?"


    Mango was reminded of Sophia''s biological father. He should be more than 70 years old now, which


    was almost the same age as Brantley.


    Therefore, it was not illogical to assume that Ezequiel, who was in his fifties, would probably know


    Javion as well.


    "But we have no idea where to find him now."


    "It doesn''t matter. Marcelo has seen him before. We''ll ask him to describe itter. Then I''ll find


    someone to draw a portrait of Ezequiel. By then, we''ll look into his identity online. No matter who he


    is, I''ll catch him this time."


    Nathaniel was really fed up with life like this. He didn''t want much in life. All he wanted was for his


    wife and children to live a good life. However, all these problems were rted to him or Mango, so


    he felt extremely annoyed.


    Mango heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing Nathaniel''s words.


    "Yes, Javion seems to be involved in many things. Laborn and As might even have made some


    sort of deal with him back then. As long as we can find him, it will be much easier to figure out


    everything."


    "You don''t have to overthink it. We are easy targets out here while they are hiding in the dark. It''s


    not easy to uncover all of their aplices. Now we can only take one step at a time. I hope that


    Walter and Deborah are safe."


    Mango nodded and said, "That''s right, Deborah gave me her pistol. I don''t know what she has gone


    through. I think she looks much thinner than before. She is a skeleton of her former self."


    "Anyone who suffers from depression will lose weight."


    Nathaniel knew that Mango had always med herself for what happened to Deborah. In fact,


    everyone knew that Mango had done nothing wrong. Walter couldn''t control his feelings for Mango


    at first, but no one expected Deborah to get depressed because of this matter.


    As time crept by, Marcelo was not yet back but the people who went out to look into Weston had


    come back.


    "Mr. Ye, we got something."


    "Come, let me have a look."


    Nathaniel took the materials over. Mango also approached him to take a look.


    "Charlotte Ramirez?"


    It was a familiar name. Mango couldn''t help but read it out.


    "Is Weston actually Charlotte''s cousin?"


    Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


    Mango''s heart skipped a beat in an instant.


    She remembered that Charlotte had pursued Walter in every way she could. In order to get a


    promotion, she even pleaded for Mango''s help to put in a good word in front of Walter. Later,


    Deborah snatched Walter away from her in a domineering way.


    So was Weston Charlotte''s cousin?


    In that case, it was impossible that Walter''s kidnapping had nothing to do with Weston. After all,


    Charlotte used her identity as a sponsored person to get information from the rich businessmen.


    Although Charlotte was already dead, Mango was still furious with her.


    "The Ramirez family is really a nuisance. Charlotte must be the one who gave Walter''s information


    to Weston. It''s why Weston was kidnapped."


    "Well, not necessarily."


    Nathaniel''s brows were knitted tightly together.


    "If Weston was involved in Tessa''s matter in any way, it had to be eight years ago. Eight years ago,


    Charlotte had not known Walter yet, so there must be something that we have missed."


    Mango was frowning in frustration as well.


    "Charlotte was a high school student eight years ago, wasn''t she?"


    "Start an investigation. We don''t know Charlotte''s story when she was in middle school. I want


    everything on her. And Weston, where was he eight years ago? What did he work as? Who did he


    get in touch with?"


    The bodyguard went out again after Nathaniel''s order.


    Mango knew that they did not have much information. If they wanted to find Walter and Deborah,


    they had to start with Weston and Charlotte.


    They had thought that the death of Charlotte was insignificant, but they didn''t expect that someone


    was pulling the strings behind her.


    All of a sudden, Mango felt that humans wereplicated and dark. This society was too cruel. She


    couldn''t help but lean towards Nathaniel.
