Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 752

"Nathan, is that you? Are you back?" Still a little drowsy, Mandy tried to open her eyes and smiled at Nathan.

She didn't know what time it was. She placed her arms around his neck as light fell on his face, making his exquisite features look gentle. However, there was a trace of tiredness on his face. Since Adrian had been admitted to the hospital, Nathan had not slept well for several nights. He and Mandy were both severely worried about him. But both of them chose not to tell the other as they didn't want to give each other too much pressure.

"You're still tired, aren't you? Go back to bed. Close your eyes and have a good sleep." Nathan's deep voice was charming and comforting. With his usual smile, he looked at Mandy dotingly.

Although it was true that Mandy was still so sleepy, she could not bear to see the dark circles around Nathan's eyes. She frowned and said, "Nathan, you should also rest tonight. Your body isn't made of iron. At least for the time being, Adrian is going to be fine. We should take care of ourselves if we want to continue taking care of him, okay?"

Nathan kept silent for a few seconds. His dark eyes blinked, like he understood what she meant. He frowned a little and said, "I know, but I can't help but worry about him. I've already finished the work at the company. I won't go to the office tomorrow. I'll stay here to look after Adrian tonight. Honey, you're very tired. Go to bed early. I'm in good health. You don't need to worry about me. Instead, I'm actually worried about you."

"Don't worry about me, I'm fine," Mandy said with confidence. But as soon as she finished speaking, a wide yawn quickly followed it. In an instant, her white lie was exposed.

In fact, Mandy kept on reassuring Nathan because she just wanted to spend more time with him. Since Adrian fell ill, she had been upset and anxious every single day. Only when Nathan was with her could her mind feel at ease. Today, when Nathan went to work in the company, she suddenly felt the loss of her sense of security. Fortunately, Jason and Daisy came over later in the day.

"Look at the dark circles under your eyes. Are you really okay? You need to go back to sleep now. It will be your turn to take care of Adrian tomorrow morning," Nathan insisted. Then, he gently placed his hands on her shoulders and pressed her down onto the bed. He tucked her under the quilt afterward.

Even though Nathan's gesture was very kind, Mandy's heart ached a little. She felt very sad because she suddenly felt that she was useless. There wasn't anything she could do to save the child, and yet, she couldn't even help Nathan. There was an old saying, "Father's love is like a mountain." Mandy didn't quite figure out what it meant until she saw it in Nathan. Every night as they would go to bed, she would see how broad and strong Nathan's shoulders looked. And every single time, she would notice how he seemed to be under great pressure. Despite this, he still took care of her and made her his priority. No matter what, he would always think of her first.

The smile on Mandy's face was somewhat stiff, and her heart continued to ache. She sniffled, and a gush of phlegm surged up from her nose. She said, "Nathan, why are you so good to me?"

Confused, Nathan looked at her. He squinted his eyes before responding. "Silly girl, because you're my wife. You're the most important person in my life."

"But I don't want to see you so tired. As much as I appreciate the effort that you've been exerting these days, it pains me because I know that it's taking a toll on your physical health as well. You can't get sick. You and I need to be strong right now, both mentally and physically. Besides, didn't you get sick when Adrian was in Switzerland?" Mandy admitted with so much sorrow. She was really worried that if their situation were to continue like this, Nathan would fall sick sooner rather than later.

"It's not as serious as what you're picturing it out to be. That was because you weren't around in Switzerland. Without you, I didn't have any form of support. But now it's different. With you by my side, it's hard to become tired." With a smile, Nathan placed his hand on Mandy's cheek and caressed it. He then ran his fingers through her long smooth hair. The fragrance of her hair lingered on his fingertips when he retreated his hand.

With tears in her eyes, she said, "Nathan, when all of this is over, let's have another child."
