Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 741

Even though Adrian was really young, he was so lucky when it came to gambling. Mandy thought that perhaps it was because of Nathan's good genes. However, she actually didn't like gambling at all. She thought that it was a very risky thing to do. Of course, it would be great to win, but there was always a 50 percent chance that you would lose everything.

Take for example the last time in Las Vegas where Justin lost in the game with Nathan. All of his losses in that night alone amounted to one billion. After that, the Lin Group began to go downhill. Mandy didn't expect that he would really give the billion to Nathan. It seemed like he was a man of his word.

"Well, last time, it was indeed very risky. But it was thrilling as well." While reminiscing about his memories, Nathan put his arm around Mandy's waist and raised his eyebrows.

"How risky was it?" When Nacy heard the word "thrilling," she immediately became interested. Nacy was an Aries woman, so she was adventurous. She would always crave to experience something new and exciting. Passion was something she needed in her life.

"At that time, Nathan was gambling in Las Vegas. The bet was one billion and a piece of land," Mandy said. Surprisingly, she felt warm and a little happy while recalling the past.

"One billion..." Fiona repeated with a frown. Perhaps one billion was just the price of a casual deal for Nathan. But for a lot of people, one billion was a number that they couldn't even imagine. Even if they were given a thousand years, they wouldn't be able to earn that much money.

"That piece of land is where Mandy Mall has been built." Nathan looked at Mandy with a loving smile. In his eyes were tenderness, where usually, there was only indifference and rigidness.

"Hmmm Are you showing affection right now?" Nacy curled her lips. The couple's exchange was making her feel a little jealous of the loving relationship that they had.

However, the one who looked more jealous than Nacy was Audrey. At that moment, she was forcing a smile on her face. But when one would look closer, it looked more like a bitter smile than a casual one.

Turning to Audrey, Nacy raised her eyebrows and asked, "Who is this?"

"Hello, Ms. Jin, my name is Audrey. I'm the director of the Cardiology Department. I was also Adrian's attending doctor when he was in Switzerland," Audrey warmly introduced herself while a smile was spread up to her ruddy cheeks.

"Oh, so you're Dr. Audrey. I've heard so much about you," Nacy politely said. But in fact, she didn't like Audrey. Her awkward smile made Nacy feel that she was very pretentious. She even stressed on the fact that she was the director of the Cardiology Department as if it was something so prestigious.

Nacy thought, 'And so what if you're the director? It's not a big deal. Mandy had been the director three years ago. What makes this bitch so proud of it?'

Audrey gracefully placed her hair to one side. With a genuine smile this time, she asked, "Ms. Jin, you've heard of me?"

"Well… I think I've heard of your name somewhere, but I just can't remember," Nacy nonchalantly said. Except for Mandy, she didn't like any woman to get close to her brother.

"Ms. Jin, I know you! You're such an awesome actress. You've been nominated in Hollywood last time. I'm really interested in the movie which you acted in!" Audrey exclaimed.

"Thank you for the compliment," Nacy said in a calm voice. Although she remained polite, she didn't take the compliment seriously.

Fiona discreetly looked at Audrey from head to toe. 'This woman looks like a seductress. She had the features of a standard pseudo-celebrity on the Internet. With her pointed chin, big eyes, and high cheekbones, she looks pretty good. I don't know if she had plastic surgery or she's a natural. Is she another woman who's trying to tempt Nathan? I don't think she or anyone can succeed in that regard though, ' she thought silently.

The atmosphere in the ward immediately became a little weird. Only Nacy and Audrey were having a casual conversation. But soon enough, Nacy didn't bother paying attention to Audrey.
