Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 78

"Do you want me to drive?" Mandy asked as she quickened her pace, so she could keep up with Nathan.

"What do you think?" Nathan rhetorically and disdainfully asked.

"But I..." Mandy stammered hesitantly as she stood in front of Nathan.

"But what? Did you want to say that you have never driven such an expensive car; thus, you are afraid you might wreck it?" Just like a mind reader, Nathan said exactly what Mandy was thinking in her head but couldn't say out loud.

Hearing this uncanny prediction, Mandy just nodded her head obediently.

"Don't worry. If you get into a car accident, it will be I who is at fault," Nathan said as he cast a glance at Mandy. 'This girl is really not ambitious. She is afraid she will die because she is driving a luxurious car!' Nathan thought inwardly.

"Ha-ha, okay, as long as you remember, you will be the person at fault, not me, then I'll drive," Mandy blurted aloud. She was so excited that she jumped in the car and quickly buckled her seatbelt.

Nathan slowly got in the front passenger seat. It had been awhile since he had sat in the front passenger seat. Mandy was honored that she could be his driver.

"So, where are we going for dinner?" Mandy asked as she started the car. She wore an innocent smile, revealing a row of neat, white teeth.

"Wherever! I don't care," Nathan said. A touch of a smile appeared on his handsome face. His tone was contently lazy like a cat in the sunshine.

"Okay!" Mandy stepped on the gas and drove out of Crystal Street.

The night view of City A was very beautiful. Looking at the flashing neon lights outside the car window, Nathan felt empty in his heart. Somehow, whenever he got close to the feeling of happiness, it vanished from.

Before their premarital cohabitation, Mandy had instituted a series of rules for Nathan. Firstly, no third party was allowed to know about this. Secondly, their contract would last for one month. Finally, the contract would expire one month later. From then on, they would have nothing to do with each other.

Nathan counted the days. He realized there was only half a month left.

Realizing this, Nathan couldn't help but frown. He looked at Mandy's face. His intuition told him that she was willing to leave after the agreement had finished.

On seeing a red light, Mandy slowly stepped on the brake. She drove steadily, giving Nathan a sense of safety.

Out of the corner of her eye, Mandy saw a pair of eyes staring at her. She suddenly turned around and met Nathan's cold gaze. She pursed her lips and asked tentatively, "What's wrong?"

"Where are we going?" Nathan asked softly. He didn't want to let Mandy see through him and, more importantly, know his heart. He had promised her that he would give her only one month. He wouldn't break his promise even if today was the last day.

"Uh?" Mandy uttered. She didn't know that Nathan was really thinking about this question when he looked at her just now.

"Uh? What did you mean?" Nathan snickered. There was a hint of reluctance in his tone.

"Don't worry. You can count on me. I'll take you to a high-end place!" Mandy promised with a hearty laugh, patting her chest.

Nathan said disgustedly. Hearing Nathan, Mandy was so annoyed that she giggled. As the saying went, "While the priest climbs a foot, the devil climbs ten!"

"Let's go," Mandy said before she jumped out of the car and threw the key to Nathan. She felt that driving a Lamborghini gave her a feeling of empowerment.

With a small grin, Nathan walked inside the restaurant in big strides. Mandy hurried to catch up with him. She always felt a little irritated that he left her behind. However, when they went into the hotpot restaurant, they smelt the mouth-watering flavors of boiling meat and broth being mixed together. At the sight of this, a smile involuntarily emerged on Mandy's delicate face.

"Are we going to the private room or the free seating area?" Mandy asked with a smile as she pulled Nathan's muscular arm.

"I hate crowded areas," Nathan said plainly. Noticing there were a lot of people around, Nathan pulled Mandy's hand closer to him unconsciously. Outwardly, he appeared a little flirtatious when he kissed her long hair.

"Okay, I got it," Mandy answered. At the moment, Mandy felt a little nervous while being held in Nathan's arms. After all, this was a public place, not their home.

However, even in such a public place, his aristocratic origins could not be suppressed. That day Nathan wore a casual white T-shirt, and the white color with his porcelain skin made him so handsome. His delicate features, even if he was surrounded by a crowd of average people, made Mandy know she could recognize him with just one glance.

It was indeed wretched for him to come to such a crowded place.

The Sun Hotpot Restaurant was a large-scale restaurant, big enough for two thousand people to have a meal at the same time, and it had five hundred private rooms. Its premises were very busy every day since it had become one of the favorite places for young people.

A waiter, who was pushing a cart of hotpot dishes, led Mandy and Nathan into a private room. Inside the private room, an elegant, cool, and peaceful ambiance could be felt, which was much different from the hot weather outside.
