The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

"What kind of bullsh*t policy is this?"

Actually, Nathaniel rarely got angry in front of others.

Lawyer Zhang was familiar with Nathaniel's temper after working with him for many years. Now that Nathaniel was so aggressive, it was hard for Lawyer Zhang to manage it.

"Mr. Ye, that's the way it has to be. You may be the king in Ocean City, but Abyss is the king here."

"Is there nothing else we can do?"

Unfortunately, Lawyer Zhang shook his head.

Then, Nathaniel felt extremely depressed.

Just then, Lawyer Zhang received a call which made his expression extremely sour.

"What's wrong?"

"Mr. Ye, I've just received a message from the Department of Home Affairs. Apparently, Abyss has testified to the Department that Katherine has passed away five years ago. So, this effectively makes Mrs. Ye an illegal immigrant."

As soon as he said this, Nathaniel wanted nothing more than to go and beat Abyss up.

What a despicable man!

Abyss had effectively rendered Mango an illegal immigrant through his actions. Furthermore, her household registration had been canceled in the country, and her foreign identity as Katherine was gone as well. Now, it was impossible for Mango to remain in the United States, let alone marry her.

"Thomas, have someone get Mango out of the United States immediately!"

Nathaniel made a prompt decision.

No matter how many obstacles Abyss threw his way, Nathaniel would be able to handle it. However, things became trickier once it involved Mango.

Thomas knew how serious this matter was.

Truly, one had to be very capable to handle Abyss' series of attacks.

Unfortunately, Abyss usually took people by surprise with his dastardly tactics.

Next, Thomas rushed to the bedroom in hopes of taking Mango away as she slept. However, he did not expect Mango to have already woken up as if she could sense what was happening. "Huh? Why are you panicking? Where's Nathaniel?"

Mango felt relieved when she saw that she was wearing pajamas.

She was afraid that Nathaniel had not dressed her. If so, something would be exposed to the world.

Meanwhile, Thomas felt rather annoyed when he saw that Mango was awake.

"Madam, why did you wake up so quickly?"

"What do you mean by that? Would you want me to sleep through the night if I hadn't woken up? Abyss will surely take action soon, so we need to move while he still hasn't done anything. Hurry up and make arrangements for me and Nathaniel to leave the United States immediately."

Mango got up as soon as she said that.

Thomas felt that Mango was rather quick at making decisions. Unfortunately, they had overlooked exactly how sinister Abyss could be.

Mango was a little puzzled when she saw that Thomas did not do any action.

"What's wrong? Why are you still here? Oh no, did something happen while I was asleep?"

Suddenly, Mango started to feel uneasy.

Thomas nodded and he told Mango about Abyss deleting her household registration as well as the incident at the construction site. He knew that there was no need to hide things from Mango any longer at this point.

Mango was no ordinary woman.

Most importantly, Mango was very capable of dealing with whatever situation that came her way.

Mango's expression soured immensely upon hearing that.

"That's impossible. My parents would never sign that agreement."

"Unfortunately, that's the reality of the situation. It doesn't matter why your parents signed it or if they were tricked into doing it. In the end, it already happened anyway. You're considered an illegal immigrant now, both in our country and the United States. If Abyss decides to be even more ruthless, he could have the police here soon to arrest you, and I'd hate to imagine what they do to illegal immigrants here."

This was what Nathaniel and Thomas were worried about.

Frankly, there were plenty of illegal immigrants in the United States, but they were often discovered and caught. To make matters worse, no one knew where they went or how they were treated after they were detained.

Now that Abyss had turned Mango into an illegal immigrant, it was clear that his intentions were to use the police to take her away from Nathaniel.

Mango was also aware of the seriousness of this matter.

"But where can I go? Even if I go home, I'm still an illegal immigrant."

"Mr. Ye's already thought of a plan. As long as you leave the United States and return to the mainland, Mr. Ye will have a way to legitimize your identity."

Thomas felt that Nathaniel would do his best to deal with this issue. However, the most urgent concern now was that Mango could not remain in the United States any longer.

Clearly, Mango knew that she had to leave immediately as well. Moreover, it would be beneficial to Nathaniel if she did that, but she was uneasy about leaving him here alone.

"Where's Nathaniel?"

"He's in the study room."

Mango rushed straight to the study room without even changing out of her clothes.

"Nathaniel!"

She shoved open the study room's door abruptly only to find that Nathaniel was not the only one inside.

"Oh no, sorry, I didn't realize..."

Mango was embarrassed, she was like a child who had just been caught making a mistake.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel frowned slightly when he saw her run barefoot out of her room.

"You still have to wear shoes no matter how badly you' re rushing. Don't you know that your body is unwell?"

Ever since she returned from Abyss' mansion, Nathaniel was distressed when Mango's body remained quite thin as she was unable to plump up. Even though she had a good appetite now, she still did not eat much.

He hurriedly rose from his chair and he carried Mango to a chair nearby. After that, he had someone bring her slippers before he got down on one knee. Then, he massaged Mango's dainty little feet on his thighs without bothering Lawyer Zhang's presence.

"Remember, the floor's cold. Don't come out without shoes next time."

Nathaniel's voice was soft and magnetic and it made Mango rather bashful.

In fact, being doted on by Nathaniel in the public was both sweet and embarrassing. Then, she retracted her feet before she said, "Uhm.J'll do it myself."

"Don't move. Your feet are cold and they need to be rubbed first."

As he spoke, Nathaniel's hands rubbed her feet and a sudden surge of heat struck Mango, which caused Mango to blush terribly.

As he witnessed this scene in front of him, Lawyer Zhang did not say anything and he smiled faintly instead.

There was obviously a deep mutual affection between them even though it was not expressed. However, it manifested itself in their gestures, and it made everyone around them feel warm as well.

On the other hand, Mango could not wait to pull her feet away. Fortunately, Nathaniel did not take too long and he put on the slippers for her after he massaged her feet. Next, he spoke before Mango could say anything, "Don't even think about staying here. You have to leave immediately."

Then, Nathaniel's words reminded Mango about why she had come here.

She looked at Nathaniel and whispered, "I know I have to go. It's a threat to you and a danger to me if I stay. I'm sorry for dragging you into this. If I didn't mistake you for someone else five years ago, perhaps now we might not..."

"There's no need to bring up the past as no one can predict the future. Now that it's become like this, we just have to face it. Unfortunately, I have something urgent that I need to settle here, so I can't send you off and I would risk exposing your location if I did that. So Mango, you must take care of yourself, for the sake of me as well as for our children."

Obviously, Nathaniel was reluctant to part with Mango.

They had not been reunited for a long time, but now they had to be separated once again.

Unfortunately, Nathaniel had underestimated Abyss' character and tactics, which caused them to be defensive.

Now, his only hope was that Mango and the children would be safe and sound.

"I have already called Terrance. He will protect you once you're back home."

Right now, the only person Nathaniel could trust was Terrance.

Mango nodded as she agreed with Nathaniel. She had no choice but to leave although she was hesitant about it.

She hugged Nathaniel tightly as she said in a soft voice, "It doesn't matter to me if I have an identity or not as long as we know that we' re a couple! Nathaniel, I'll be waiting for you!" "Yeah."

Nathaniel did not say anything else as he hugged Mango tightly.

Not long ago, the two of them were 'wrestling1 passionately on the bed as they dreamed of a better life. The feeling of being separated again was inexplicably difficult.

Then, Nathaniel pushed Mango away after he hugged her for a moment longer.

"Go now! With Abyss' personality, I'm afraid the police are on their way."

Unfortunately, he had to urge Mango to leave.

The separation was always sad, but it was an essential part of life.

Mango gazed deeply at Nathaniel and she said in a low voice, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Nathaniel, I look forward to the day we meet again!"

"We will meet again! You're the only person I'll ever love, even if I have to go to the ends of the Earth to find you!"

Nathaniel's words were a promise to Mango.

Mango turned around with a faint smile on her face and she left without any hesitation.

Meanwhile, Thomas had packed up Mango's things. When Mango came out, he muttered, "Madam, we'll head for the top of the mountain via a back road where a private jet has been prepared for us. As long as we leave, everything will be okay."

"All right, let's go."

In fact, Mango had not managed to take in the decor of the Ye Family's villa in the United States yet, but now she was forced to get out of America by Abyss like someone who was being abandoned. Furthermore, she never thought that the fire incident five years would turn her into an illegal immigrant. This sudden revelation caught her off guard and she almost could not bear it.

Flowever, Nathaniel was right. As long as they were together in love, nothing would topple them come hell or high water.

Mango got in the car and she left without looking back.

In truth, she did not dare to look back at the villa.

She was afraid that she would be reluctant to leave if she saw Nathaniel's face.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel stood in front of the floor to ceiling windows of the villa as he watched the familiar car drive away with the love of his life. His gaze was frigid and his hands were tightly clasped together. "Abyss, you've really pissed me off now!"

Nathaniel growled in his heart but his face remained impassive. However, his beautiful onyx eyes had long changed since they were filled with anger.

As the car sped along the road and they turned the corner, a convoy of police cars headed to Nathaniel's villa as their sirens blared.

Mango frowned slightly.

If she had spent a few more minutes longer with Nathaniel, perhaps she would have been caught. After that, she would've been arrested immediately.

After all, this was the United States.

Even if Nathaniel had connections, they were too far away to be of any use. By then, Abyss would have already had Mango in his clutches.

Mango felt a burst of fear at that but it also gave her a new understanding of Abyss at the same This man was indeed sinister and calculative. It was a pity that she only just realized it today.

Thomas drove the car steadily and he did not speed up when he saw the police cars. In fact, it was his calmness that caused the police cars not to detect their presence. However, Mango noticed that someone had followed them as they rounded the corner.
