The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye)

Chapter 1863

"Where are you going?"

Evangeline grabbed hold of Zion.

Zion said with a smile, "I'm going to see Rita. Even if I want her to experience the suffering of the world, I have to send her food in case she is hungry. Then she will have enough strength to run on the road."

Evangeline didn't know what to say.

"You are indeed worried about her, but why didn't you show your care for her openly?"

"I can't tell her the truth."

After a while, Zion went out with the food.

When Barney and Evangeline were left on the table, Evangeline felt a bit embarrassed.

She was not familiar with Barney and did not know what to talk about with her. She could only lower her head and eat.

Barney pushed the food Evangeline liked to her and said, "Zion made this for you. If you don't feel well, you can come to me at any time. I'm free all the time."

"Thank you, Barney."

Evangeline addressed Barney the same way that Zion did.

Barney paused for a moment and then nodded with a smile.

Barney was a very quiet girl. If she never said anything, no one would notice her presence.

Evangeline didn't get used to it at first, but she gradually felt much more comfortable.

Barney was generous and not annoying. She also gave people a sense of peace, which made Evangeline like her.

"What hobbies do you have?"

"Study medicine."

Barney's words reminded Evangeline of Wisdom.

"It seems that Wisdom is the same. Every time I see him, he's always reading some medical books."

Evangeline’s words reminded Barney of

Wisdom's childhood.

"Indeed, Wisdom likes reading very much."

Barney and Evangeline had a common interest now, so they started talking about this quickly. Soon, the atmosphere around them became harmonius.

Evangeline couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Zion soon caught up with Rita.

"Rita, stop."

"Leave me alone!"

Rita was getting angrier, so she walked faster.

Zion had no choice but to chase after her and grab her arm.

"How old are you? Can you not be so stubborn?"

Rita suddenly turned her head, but her face was full of tears, which startled Zion.

"Why are you crying? I didn't say anything about you."

"What are you talking about? You want to kick me out of the house."

Rita wanted to shake him off, but she failed.

Zion suddenly felt a bit upset.

"Who wants to kick you out of the house? I just said those words because I was angry!"

"Then why did you say that to me? You even cut off my income! Zion, do you think that you're very awesome as the head of the Ye family?"

"Hey! You're a girl, so you should be more civilized."

Zion frowned slightly, but he couldn't go against her anymore.

"Alright, come back with me."

"No, I don't. I want to have a relationship. Do you think I wouldn't know about the truth just because you and mom refuse to say anything to me? Is there something wrong with my body? Both of you are hiding the truth from me! You guys don't want me to know and don't want me to have any relationship. But have you ever thought that my body is my own and my life is mine? I'm already so old. Can't I make decisions for myself for once?" Zion was stunned by her words.

"How did you know?"

"Is it strange? Do I need to work hard to find out what I want to know? Zion, I am the daughter of the Ye family. I can find out anything I want too!"

Rita had been holding her emotions back for these days.

From the moment she knew that there was something wrong with her body, she had been very uncomfortable.

Fate was playing tricks on her, right?

It was one thing to let her suffer a lot when she was a child, but now she was more than 20 years old. How could this happen?

Rita sniffed and said, "I don't have to be in a relationship actually. I'm just afraid. I'm afraid that if I can't make it this time, I won't even know what it feels like to be in a relationship in my life. I understand mother and you want me to wait until two years later, but what if I can't wait that long? Zion, I don't want to be a little girl who doesn't know anything even after dying at my twenties. I want to experience life. I also know why Barney came back. I also know why you stay here and refuse to take Evangeline out for a trip. Is it because of me? You said that you want to take Evangeline out for a journey. Without me, you may not be here now. With your strength, no matter where you go, Evangeline's body will be well taken care of. But you're still here because you know someone will come here to study my mutation, right?"

"Rita..."

Zion's heart clenched.

He pulled Rita over and held her tightly in his arms.

"I'm here. Uncle is here. Barney and Wisdom are here too. You'll be fine."

Rita leaned against Zion's chest. All of her uneasiness from the past few days had finally been vented.

"Zion, I'm scared! I'm really scared! I hated the smell of hospitals the most when I was a child, but I had to live there. Now that I've grown up, I thought that I could breathe freely and live freely, but I never expected that I still had to go back to that place in the end. I'm only in my twenties, and my life has just begun. I don't want to die with nothing. I hope that you guys can find a solution to cure me. I have hope, but I don't know whether it's possible to save me in time. I just want to experience something that I haven’t felt in my short life."

Zion immediately felt emotional when he saw Rita's tears.

He didn't want her to leave. He was sad, but since Rita had said so, how could he stop her?

His only sister had such a small request. Could he really imprison her?

Zion finally compromised.

"Okay, I promise you, you can do whatever you want, but you must let my people follow you. Also, if anything happens to your body, you must tell me in time. No matter where you are, I will arrive as soon as possible. You are not alone. Rita, you must remember this."

"Yes."

Rita nodded.

After the two of them spoke for a while longer, Zion asked Aziel to unfreeze Rita's card. Only then did Rita feel a little better.

"Just buy whatever you want. I have plenty of money."

Zion's bold words made Rita burst into laughter.

"You're like a bumpkin. I'm leaving. You have to treat Evangeline well. Although she has always been deeply in love with you, she will feel uneasy in her heart. Zion, you're a man, so you have to give her a sense of security."

Zion frowned slightly at her words.

A sense of security?

What should he do to give Evangeline a sense of security?

However, no matter what Zion thought, Rita waved at him and turned to leave.

"Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

Zion quickly followed her, but Rita stopped him.

"No, Zion, I want to go alone in the future."

Rita's smile was particularly strong and brilliant. For a moment, Zion felt very upset, but he could only watch her leave.

Zion didn't turn back until he couldn't see Rita anymore.

Suddenly, a figure flashed past and headed for the sanatorium.

Zion narrowed his eyes and chased after it.
