Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 700

"Say, if a woman, who is far more beautiful and younger than I am, approaches you, is there a chance that you will fall in love with her?" Mandy suddenly stopped as she spoke, and then she turned around. At that moment, their eyes met.

Taken aback by what Mandy just asked him, Nathan squinted his dark eyes and looked her up and down. Then, he chuckled at her out of amusement and stretched his slender fingers out to flick her on her forehead. "What do you think, silly?" he said with a smile.

Mandy frowned. "How could I know what's on your mind? I'm not a psychic. That's why I'm asking for the answer," she replied with a weird tone and a pout.

Nathan sighed. "Of course not. If I could change my mind and fall for another woman, then I would have done that sooner. Why should I wait until now?" with raised eyebrows, he replied confidently and reached out his hand to hold her cold fingers in his.

Even then, Mandy still had questions in her mind. "As a matter of fact, I still have another question that I have always wanted to ask you. Did you fall in love with me at first sight, or did you slowly fall for me while we were getting along and spending time with each other?" The smile on Mandy's pretty face was now gone, and it was completely replaced by a serious expression as she looked Nathan in the eye.

"To be honest, it was both. When I first saw you, I was already attracted to you, so later on, the more I spent time with you, the more I got to know you. I gradually fell in love with you. To put it simply, my love for you at first sight is the foundation for my deep love for you in the future," Nathan answered reasonably. His feelings towards Mandy had indeed gone through this process, no doubt. In fact, he wasn't aware of how and when he was really captivated by this woman and eventually fell in love with her so wholeheartedly. Perhaps it was a long time ago when they met the first time. At that very moment, her sparkling eyes flashed at him like a field of stars in the vast universe. He himself had a hard time not to be moved by her delicate charm.

"If that's the case, well, it is believed that falling in love, at first sight, is merely driven by desire and physical attraction, and to truly love someone for a lifetime is just the result of weighing all the pros and cons. So, what is it? What kind of feelings do you have for me?" Mandy asked. Her gentle voice reached Nathan's ears despite the night breeze that gently embraced them. This time, there was a smile in Mandy's starry eyes.

"Well, I was tempted by lust!" Nathan answered at once, making Mandy pout. He chuckled at her and reached his hand out to take her in his arms. "Honey, do you really want an answer to that?" This time, there wasn't any amount of playfulness in his words.

Hearing the change in the tone of his voice, Mandy raised her head with a dull look on her face. As soon as his deep eyes met with hers, her heart started to race like crazy. Her face became clearly visible as the night breeze gently stroke her hair out of her face.

Seeing the look in Mandy's eyes, Nathan could not help but move closer and kiss her red lips, with one of his arms wrapping around Mandy's waist for support. At that moment, Mandy felt his desire and enthusiasm, making her face flush and turn red. She tried to avoid making eye contact with him, but he raised her chin with his free hand, forcing her to be captivated with his longing eyes. Without another moment to blink, she felt his soft lips touch hers in an even more overbearing and lingering way.

Mandy closed her eyes and kissed him back. For a long time, the world seemed to become quiet in an instant as if they were the only people on earth. They didn't know how long they had been locked in a kiss, but the sound of footsteps nearing interrupted them.

With sensitive ears, Nathan was the first to hear the sound of two people walking towards them, so he loosened his grip on Mandy and pulled her away, still holding her in his arms.

Wondering what happened, Mandy opened her eyes and looked over to see Simon and Nacy walking towards them hand in hand.

Seeing their hands interlocked, Mandy wondered, 'When did they start dating?' Her flustered face turned into a confused look as Mandy stared at their hands.

Nathan was a little surprised too but did not show it on his face. Instead, he smiled gracefully and glanced at the couple, who were around five meters away from them.

As they neared, it was only then that Nacy and Simon noticed Nathan and Mandy. As soon as Nathan noticed that the other couple were looking at them, he smiled faintly and asked, "Have you two finally made up?"

Simon smiled. "What are you talking about? We have never been apart." He held Nacy's hand even tighter.

"But, didn't you two get a divorce?" Mandy pouted and looked at them sideways.

"Honestly, that was just a fake divorce. We just pretended to sign a divorce agreement in the Civil Affairs Bureau on that day. In fact, our marriage certificate is still at home," Simon explained with a smile. He then looked at Nacy with deep and longing eyes.
