Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 43

"What are you thinking about, Dr. Zhou?" Luke was amused and asked her, noticing that Mandy was lost in thought.

"Nothing special, Mr. Shi. Have a good rest. And let me know immediately if you do feel any discomfort." Mandy would surely not tell him what was going on in her mind. Judging by his appearance, she thought Luke must be a resourceful man. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the general manager of JS International.

"Go ahead with your work, Dr. Zhou. By the way, can you give me your phone number?" Luke impulsively took the opportunity to shift the topic and obtain her cell phone number.

Since Mandy was a simple-minded person, she didn't give it too much thought. She casually fished her phone from her pocket and carefully handed it to Luke.

"You have saved my life, Dr. Zhou. If you have any trouble in the future, just call me," Luke gently offered her while adding his number to her contacts. Then he hastily swiped through her recent outgoing calls. Seeing Nathan's contact number appeared in it, he confirmed that his hunch was indeed right.

Although he had been in the hospital for a couple of days, he could still monitor Nathan's every move. His stool pigeon had come to report that Nathan had been very close to Mandy these days. So Luke couldn't help but be a little suspicious about her.

"Thank you, Mr. Shi," Mandy expressed sincerely, maintaining a smile on her face.

At JS International

Nathan was in his office. He was working on some documents when he heard a commotion outside. The loud voices irritated him, making him lose his focus.

He glanced at the computer screen with his sharp eyes before pounding the mouse against the table. Still annoyed, he then straightened up and dashed out of the office.

"Who was arguing out here?" He quickly opened the door as his face darkened. At that precise moment, he looked as if someone owed him five million dollars. Usually, he was a quiet sort of person.

"It's Miss Qi. Mr. Jin," replied Mary, his secretary.

In her early thirties, Mary was a tough and capable woman. Though she was still unmarried, many men were pursuing her. She had been his senior schoolmate. And when he was in college, she had always taken care of him. After her graduation, she began her work in JS International.

On that day, Narissa was dressed in a luridly red cat-suit. She had a cute bubble-butt, well-rounded breasts, a good pair of long legs, and a beautiful face. She was drop-dead gorgeous. And every man would be easily attracted to her like moths to a flame.

"Nathan, I want to see you, but she is preventing me from seeing you. You know, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I miss you so much," Narissa uttered softly. Seconds before, she had looked so arrogant and conceited. But when Nathan emerged from his office, she immediately pretended to be soft and sweet. Her small face looked pitiful.

Mary didn't offer any explanation. Instead, she just looked away. She had always disliked and looked down upon such coquettish women.

"Come in with me," Nathan ordered Narissa in a firm tone while glancing at Mary. The look on his face remained unchanged.

Narissa was not concerned with Nathan's attitude. She merely thought that his serious demeanor was to show that he had taken offense at Mary. So she followed him in a rather over-sentimental manner.

Nathan returned to his office with Narissa in a tow. Positioning himself on the sofa, he then spread his arms. Mesmerized by his move, she cheerfully went up to him. She had supposed that he was hinting for her to sit beside him.

Currently, Narissa was the leading actress of JS International Entertainment Company. Before she became famous, she had studied at the University of Music. Playing the violin was her forte. Rumor had it that Nathan had always liked those girls who were good at playing the violin. And by chance, she was personally chosen by him. Since then, she had reached achievements in her acting career and had become the most popular female star at present.

It was well-known to the world that Nathan was her financial supporter, so no one dared to plot against her. For this sole reason, she had bullied a lot of newcomers and also some senior elders in the entertainment circle. In all these years, she had failed to establish a good relationship within the industry. People harbored deep anger against her, but nobody dared to air it.
