Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 694

Monica, Shyla, and Joshua—all of them made Mandy sick. She did not know that Monica was that kind of person. Nonetheless, she definitely would not make it easy for her.

"Okay." Nathan did not say anything more and followed Mandy.

He hated seeing Mandy upset. Whoever made a pass at her would surely have to go through him. They were in tandem, and anyone who disgusted Mandy also disgusted him! The mayor was no exception. If Nathan wanted him out of office, he better pack his things soon.

Fiona was in her apartment, watching the TV alone. She missed Ethon and wondered what he could be doing.

Plopped on her bed, she tossed and turned. She had a strong urge to call him, but she did not fancy being a nuisance.

Mandy felt a gentle night breeze on her face as she stood outside of Fiona's apartment. She raised a hand and rang the doorbell, keeping her other hand intertwined safely with Nathan's fingers.

Fiona, who was having a silent battle with her phone, jumped up and ran out on her bare feet. She was at the door in a snap, thinking Ethon was back.

"Sis… Sis, brother-in-law, how come you're here?" Her excitement fell in a swoop. She fiddled with her dress awkwardly, and the cold ground seemed to suck the warmth out of her feet.

"What? Are we not welcome here?" A gentle smile appeared on Mandy's face as she took in her sister's appearance.

'She hasn't changed a bit. She still likes to walk around barefooted without a care in the world.'

Fiona immediately backtracked, and with a silly smile, she stepped aside and let them in. "Of course, you're welcome here! I was simply surprised!"

Mandy sat leisurely in the living room and looked around. There was no sign of Ethon. "Where is Ethon?"

Nathan loosened his tie and collar button before sitting down beside Mandy. He projected a stoic demeanor, and his lips had set tightly into a thin line.

They changed their clothes before coming so that Fiona could not tell that they had attended the mayor's party.

"Please, have some tea." Fiona concentrated on the act of pouring tea and served two cups. She flashed a big smile, willfully ignoring the question.

"Your apartment is quite nice. How come I don't see your boyfriend?" Cradling the cup with both hands, Mandy took a delicate sip of tea. With a little inward smile, she shot Fiona with a look over the rim as she drank.

Mandy's stare made Fiona uneasy. Her sister rarely visited without purpose, but she suddenly dropped by that evening. She must have known something.

"You already know it, don't you?" she admitted, throwing a shy smile and feeling herself flush.

"You are a smart girl. Why didn't you tell me that Ethon's mother doesn't like you?" Mandy's brows drew together, and her gaze searched Fiona's face.

"Why should I? It's not like we're going to get married."

"How is he treating you?" Mandy sighed, and her eyes grew fierce and steely.
