The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 2018

Anton was about to pick up his mobile phone, but was stopped by Desmond.

"You don't have to call her, and don't tell her my condition. Don't worry, I won't die for a while. I'm just a little weak and uncomfortable. Anton, if anything happens to me, take good care of your mother. Although she is competitive, she is sincere to you and me. She uses her whole life's time and energy to take care of us. Even if your thoughts and moral values differ, she raised you anyway. She has raised you for more than 10 years, and you should take care of her when she aged too. Take good care of her for me."

"Dad..."

Anton directly hugged Desmond.

For him, his father was always closer to him than his mother. Because of the same blood relationship, he and his father had a lot to talk about. Now, his father, who had given him the direction of life and had accompanied him for more than 20 years, was lying here so weakly, and it seemed that he was telling his last words. Anton finally burst into tears.

"I only want you to be alive, Dad! As long as you are alive, I can do anything you want me to do. Just don't leave me behind! Dad!"

Anton cried like a child.

The corners of Mango's and Nathaniel's eyes turned moist as they listened from not far away.

As an aged couple, they couldn't bear to see such a separation between life and death.

"Is there nothing we can do?"

Nathaniel shook his head.

"Don't cry!"

Desmond's voice was very weak, but Anton heard it.

He suppressed his tears and looked at his father helplessly.

Desmond had never thought of wanting his son to become a genius, nor did he want him to become an outstanding person at all. He only hoped that he could live a free life.

"Wipe away your tears. You'll have to walk your own way in the future. I may not be able to keep you company. Send me to the hospital for a shot to calm down, then send me to a place and you can leave."

Desmond had already made plans for what would happen to him.

Anton kept shaking his head, and his tears burst out, but he didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of disturbing Desmond.

After saying that, Desmond finally couldn't bear it anymore and fainted.

Anton bit so hard that his lower lip bled. Only then did he get up and walk out. When he saw Mango and Nathaniel, he could no longer hold back his tears.

"Nathaniel, Mango, my dad..."

Nathaniel stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, but Anton got into his arms and burst into tears.

"I don't want him to die."

This was also everyone's wish, but Desmond was already at the end of his rope.

Mango felt a little depressed. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

She got up and went to the car to lay the seat down so that Desmond could lie down more steadily. Then she let Nathaniel and Anton get into the car and drove the car to the hospital.

They sent Desmond to the hospital which he said in advance.

When the doctor saw Desmond, he sighed slightly and gave him an injection.

Mango could not help but ask, "What kind of injection is this?"

"It's similar to a Euthanasia."

As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Anton got angry.

"Who allowed you to give my dad this kind of injection?"

He was angry but was stopped by Nathaniel.

The doctor said sadly, "Mr. Blu is in charge of our hospital. The document was written by Mr. Blu himself. He said that if one day he was sent here by his son, he wanted us to give him Euthanasia. In fact, Mr. Blu's body has begun to fail in the past two years. Everyone thought his body was still good, but he suffered great pain every day which ordinary people couldn't even bear it. He let you send him here, which means that he can't take it anymore."

"Nonsense!"

Anton couldn't accept this fact.

In the past few years, he had been doing research in the Fang Group. He had always thought that his father was very strong. Occasionally, he would cough, but it was just that his health was a little

inappropriate and he would get better. However, he had never expected that his father would be like this.

He regretted it so much!

If he knew that there was something wrong with his father's body, he would have to make time to accompany his father.

How much pain was he in?

How much pain he was in to let him ask for Euthanasia before he died?

Anton collapsed.

Mango and Nathaniel were upset as well, but when they saw Desmond's condition now, they understood what he meant.

In fact, Desmond could bear the pain, but he didn't want to anymore.

He had already said what he wanted to say, and what couldn't be done still couldn't be done no matter how hard he tried. He might as well let nature take its course.

"Did he say what should we do after he dies?" Nathaniel's words made the doctor quickly say, "Mr. Blu has a donation agreement when he was alive. He said that after his death, everything in his body will be handed over to our hospital for research. In fact, Mr. Blu's blood has been studied by our hospital for several years. We only need the last set of data."

Anton was completely stunned.

Even after his father was dead, he didn't leave a whole and complete corpse.

He knew that what his father did was great, but he would rather not be!

Not everyone wanted to live like a hero.

At least he wasn't, neither was his father.

What they wanted was just an ordinary happy life. It would be great if they could live in harmony together. Now everything had changed in just an instant.

But Anton didn't stop the doctor.

He had been doing his best to carry out his father's instructions.

Anton changed Desmond's clothes, cleaned his face, wiped his body, knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Desmond three times, and then walked out with red eyes.

Mango was worried about him and wanted to follow him, but Nathaniel stopped her.

"Something bad will happen to him if he goes out like this."

"No, he won't! This child's character is like Desmond's and he knows what's good for him. He might have gone to vent his pain on his peers. We don't have to worry about that."

Nathaniel held Mango's hand. It was only at this moment that he realized that Mango was already getting old.

Although the years did not leave any traces on her face, her skin was not as tight as when she was young. Her waist and legs still hurt, and she did not sleep well at night.

Nathaniel never thought that the people around him would leave him one day. Desmond's departure suddenly made him realize that he and Mango had been through more than twenty years.

Perhaps they were too happy together. He always felt that time was in the blink of an eye. But now when he looked back, he found that everything was gone. He could only cherish the person in front

of him...

Nathaniel hugged Mango tightly so much that Mango found it hard to breathe.

"What's wrong with you?"

Mango couldn't push him away, so she could only let him be. Although she said that she disliked him, the doting at the corners of her eyes had already shown. For some reason, the surrounding atmosphere had become much happier.

Nathaniel said in a muffled voice, "Honey, it's so nice to meet you in this life."

"What are you doing?"

Mango rolled her eyes, but the corners of her mouth lifted slightly. Happiness might not be that simple, but she was fortunate to have it for the rest of her life.

Anton felt very uncomfortable after leaving the hospital, but he didn't know where to go.

He simply went to Zion's place.

Zion shut himself in because of the matter about Mr. Dante, so Anton jumped in from the window.

He never thought that he would see Zion and Evangeline in bed together. He couldn't help but be shocked. He just looked at them without blinking.
