Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 56

"Oh, he is the son of Mr. Shi," Mandy answered with a smile. She didn't find anything wrong with him at all.

"Wow, now you have even made the acquaintance of Mr. Shi's son. I think you have a very strong personal connection with handsome young men," Jayleen joked.

"Jayleen, please don't make fun of me. He is the only one I know. We only said hello to each other when we met. That's all." Mandy frowned.

"Well, I know. You don't have to explain." Jayleen snickered mischievously.

Mandy's face flushed in embarrassment. 'What have I done?' she thought.

In the evening, Mandy went home straight after work. It was six in the evening when Mandy's phone blared with Nathan's phone call.

"Hello, Mr. Jin," Mandy said respectfully as a smile graced her lips.

"Hey, how was your day?" Nathan asked, as he rested his back on the sofa and rubbed his temple with his thumb–he was tired.

He had been busy with work for the past few days and seldom had the time to rest. His overwhelming thought every day was to make phone calls to Mandy as soon as he got back to the hotel.

"Everything is fine, but I ran into your cousin at the hospital today." Mandy smiled.

"What did he say?" Nathan asked as his tired eyes suddenly became alert.

"Nothing. I saw him this morning when I was making rounds across the wards," Mandy answered honestly. She hadn't talked much with him. Although Damian had invited her to dinner, she thought it was a mere formality and didn't pay attention to it.

"You'd better steer clear of him!" Nathan warned coldly. It suddenly occurred to Mandy that he had warned her in the same tone when they were in the corridor of the hospital as well.

A sudden shiver ran through her body. "Okay," she answered obediently.

"So... Do you miss me?" Nathan's face softened as he asked gently.

In the remote foreign country, Nathan had curled up on the sofa. His usual cold and gloomy eyes were sparkling with love and care.

Mandy was silent. "No, I don't," she finally replied.

Mandy was too shy to admit that she missed him. She felt that it was hypocritical.

"You heartless woman!" Nathan said as he squinted his eyes, and his face darkened all of a sudden.

"Um… When will you come back?" Mandy asked, trying to change the topic as she was embarrassed to show her love.

"No, I won't come back," Nathan joked.

"That's exactly what I want!" Mandy also joked as she pouted.

"Don't worry. If I'm going to live here forever, I'll take you with me. Mandy, you are mine for the rest of your life!"

Nathan growled over the phone. A gloomy smile crept over the corner of his thin lips.

"It's time for dinner. I'm hungry. I'm going to eat," Mandy said impatiently. She didn't want to drag the conversation out further. She was engrossed in the thought of how Nathan looked–It was a complicated feeling. The thought of Nathan made her forget everything.

"Have your dinner." Nathan hung up.

The busy tone on the phone made Mandy anxious. She felt like a thousand butterflies were set loose in her stomach.

Mandy's mouth watered when she looked at the table. The dinner table was garnered with delicious food that Lillian had cooked for her.
