Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 735

Adrian had finished his breakfast, which Mandy fed him. Her eyes were red as she fed her son. Since Mandy returned from America, she noticed that Adrian had grown taller. She blamed herself and thought that she had been a bad mother to Adrian.

Mandy felt guilty at the thought.

Looking at the apathetic kid in front of her, Mandy felt like her heart was being pierced. Adrian had gone through so many bad things. She didn't know what would happen this time around.

As a mother, Mandy felt like a failure.

Instead of staying with her son when he needed her the most, she chose to escape. Mandy thought that she was a selfish person for doing that. Back then, she only cared about herself and protecting herself from being hurt. However, her actions had hurt both Nathan and Adrian.

"Why are you crying again, Mom?" Adrian asked, confused. In the past two days, she had been trying to hide her tears from him. As a child, she knew that Adrian would be curious about her, but no matter how many times he asked, she always assured him that she was okay.

That day, Adrian wished that he could become an adult in a blink of an eye. That way, Mandy wouldn't have to worry about him anymore.

"I'm fine. I wasn't crying. My eyes are just irritated," Mandy assured him as she raised her head and wiped her tears cautiously.

Upon hearing her explanation, Adrian looked at Mandy suspiciously. He wasn't sure if she was lying. When he looked at her, he noticed that she would always avoid eye contact. That was unusual for him.

Nathan embraced her from behind, feeling her heartbeat and her slender arms trembling, and he rested his chin on her shoulder. In a low and magnetic voice, he said, "Let me do it."

Passing the bowl to Nathan, Mandy rushed out to the end of the hospital corridor and wiped at her tears.

At that time, Serge and a group of bodyguards were standing at the door. When Serge saw Mandy leave the room, he immediately followed her. He wondered if Mandy had just quarreled with Nathan.

Mandy stood by the window. When she was in the ward, she couldn't control herself. She wanted to cry out loud. Why was God being so cruel to her son? What did her son do wrong?

Mandy's heart filled with resentment. She hated herself and Eve. She hated all the wretched people who wanted to hurt her son.

"Ms. Jin, don't be sad. Adrian will be fine soon," Serge said as he took out a packet of tissues from his pocket and handed it to Mandy.

"I wish he would get better soon. As a mother, all I want is for my child to be well!" Mandy said in a heartbroken voice as she wiped away her tears.

Serge frowned and didn't reply. He stood there quietly, waiting for her to continue.

"Why? Why do these terrible things keep happening to my child over and over again? He's just an innocent kid. If it's my fault, she should punish me, not my child!" Mandy sobbed, her lips trembling.

At the sight of her breaking down, Serge wanted to comfort her. However, he was Nathan's underling and couldn't reach his arm out to Mandy.

At that moment, the sound of footsteps was heard in the silent corridor. Nathan had appeared behind them.

Serge immediately greeted Nathan before bidding farewell to them with a serious look.

Without saying anything, Nathan reached an arm out to Mandy and embraced her tightly. "Silly girl, don't blame yourself. Be strong. Adrian and I need you."

Mandy looked up at the sky. It was sunny, and the clouds moved quickly. It was rare to see such good weather. She looked at the sun through the window. The sunlight was too harsh on her eyes, so she quickly lowered her head and turned around. She threw herself into Nathan's arms with a sad face.

"Adrian will be fine, won't he, Nathan?" Mandy said in a sad voice, frowning slightly.

"Of course, he'll be fine. I won't let anything terrible happen to him again. He survived a life-or-death operation three years ago. I'm sure he will survive this too. He is an adorable and loving boy. He'll be safe and sound again!" Nathan assured her. A doting smile appeared on his face.

Thinking back, Mandy thought that Adrian was an ill-fated child. First, he was born prematurely, so his body had been weaker than normal children. Second, not long after he was born, he was diagnosed with having a congenital heart disease.

"Okay." Mandy nodded her head heavily and said, "Why did you come out? Where's Adrian?"

"All of them are there to keep him company," Nathan replied with a smile on his face.

"All of whom?"

"Nacy, Simon, Nana, and Ethon are all there with him," Nathan said with a slight smile.

"They arrived so soon," Mandy said as she smiled. Last night, she had discussed with Nathan and decided not to tell their friends and relatives about Adrian's hospitalization. She didn't want to worry them before the situation was confirmed. However, Mandy and Nathan were worried that if no one knew about it, they would blame the two of them. After all, Nacy, Simon, Nana, and Ethon were all very concerned about Adrian. They decided to tell them the news in the morning.

"I decided to tell Dad, Mom, Grandpa, and Grandma the news at a later time. They shouldn't know about it right now before anything is confirmed. They're too old to bear any aggravation. If something terrible happens to Adrian, they wouldn't be able to sleep at night!" Nathan said after he thought it over.

In the time that they were together, Nathan and Mandy were becoming more similar. Both of them often thought about others. No matter what they did, they thought of their families first.

If you made friends in your childhood, they would leave you in your teens. If you made friends in your teens, they will drift away from you in your twenties. In this world, the strongest relationships were the ones with family.

"Okay. Maybe Adrian's blood is simply inflamed. The inflammation in the blood could be another cause of the high bacteria. We'd better get the test report first," Mandy replied as she nodded with agreement with Nathan.
