Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 47

"Bzzap... Bzzap…" Nathan was gently drying Eve's hair with a hair-drier. There was an apparent gleam of love and care in his eyes.

'Well, it's a good thing that a woman keeps staying with Nathan. That means he won't make trouble for me. And I can go back home in only one month!' With a self-deprecating laugh, Mandy noted to herself. With this thought in mind, Mandy felt that she should grit her teeth and get on with it while hanging tough for a month.

"Why are you still standing here? Go and make a beefsteak!" Eve urged her in an unfriendly tone as she looked daggers at Mandy from the mirror.

Mandy silently turned and left without a word. She headed downstairs and rushed into the kitchen.

To her amazement, the kitchen was spacious. And it was stuffed with a lot of kitchenware in it. After quickly scanning the room, she directly went to the fridge to check if there was food stored in it. Mandy took out two pieces of steak, surprised that they were still fresh. But looking at these two pieces of steak, she felt annoyed!

"Humph, she thought eating steak would exhibit her elegance and grace. Seriously? What a mindless woman!" Mandy exclaimed to herself rather crossly. She then began shaking the two pieces of steak to and fro on the chopping block.

"I would like to put a purgative in your food to put you to death!" Mandy hissed, still fuming in anger.

Fortunately, Mandy had mastered good cooking skills when she had studied in England, so it was not difficult for her to cook Western food. She not only prepared steak, but also made Ronnie soup, cream cheese shrimp, and fried dragon shrimps.

When Mandy put the Western food on the table, the suspicious look in Nathan's eyes showed that he had been assuming that she was a talented but unheralded chef. Their eyes met, but Mandy just looked away and stood silently aside.

"Nathan, I noticed that your maid was a little bit slow in reaction. Don't you think? She looked pretty silly. You may as well sack her," Eve stated in an unhappy tone as she pouted.

"She is just a maid, Darling. Provided that the dishes are deliciously good, and the clothes are washed clean, then it is enough!" Nathan chuckled. His eyes were not as cold as usual.

Mandy was not stupid. She seemed to detect some scorn in his voice and fully understood what he meant. Is he just wanting her to pour wine for them?

Adeptly, Mandy opened a bottle of 1982 Chateau Lafite and gently poured the wine for Nathan and Eve like a pro. At this moment, the atmosphere became lighter. Eve's face glowed with satisfaction, and she was beaming at Nathan.

"Nathan, cheers!"

"Cheers!" Nathan was sitting opposite to Eve. He immediately raised his hand and clinked glasses with her.

Watching their intimate acts, Mandy felt sick. It was like her stomach would turn inside out. She then remembered a famous saying, 'A subservient and servile woman's affectation is an eyesore and unwatchable!'

Mandy was smart enough though to make herself a bowl of spaghetti when she prepared dinner for the two. Since she had already eaten, no matter how happy Nathan and Eve were at that time, she would ignore them.

Mandy was very quiet, standing there motionless, like air. But inwardly, she was coaxing herself to remain calm. And Nathan, on the other hand, had never even glanced at her from beginning to end.

At around ten o'clock in the evening, Eve finally called it a day and was about to leave the villa. Nathan asked Fred to drive her home safe. And they parted with Eve kissing Nathan on the cheek.

Their kiss closely resembled the same way that Mandy kissed Nathan in the morning.

The only difference was that Eve had left a red lipstick mark on Nathan's cheek.

Mandy felt disgusted, seeing the bright red mark. She nearly rolled her eyes, but she dared not to.

After seeing Eve off, Mandy silently went to the kitchen to wash the dishes voluntarily.

While soaking her hand under the running water, her mind started drifting off again. She mulled over how great it would be if other women would accompany Nathan every day this month. As long as he didn't cause her any trouble, she knew she would survive.

"Are you annoyed?" Mandy snapped back to her senses. She heard a deep voice suddenly come from behind her.

She did a double-take. And groaning inwardly, she mentally asked herself, 'When did he come in? Why didn't I hear his footsteps? Could it be that I was deep in thought and deliberately ignored him?'

"Don't make fun of me, Mr. Jin. Why would I be annoyed?" Mandy politely smiled as she busied herself with the dishes.

"Do you really think that I invited you to my home only to be a maid?" As soon as he finished speaking, Nathan hastily pulled Mandy into his arms. He eagerly buried his head in her neck, and greedily he enjoyed the smell of her body.

Nathan's hot breath was fanning the back of Mandy's ear, sending delicious current down her spine. It was the most sensitive part of her body. Instinctively, she shrank her neck and tried pushing him away.

"Mr. Jin, don't be like that, or your girlfriend will be jealous and annoyed." She continued to break free, but at that moment, Nathan refused to let go and hugged her more and more tightly.

"What does it matter? It's nothing!" Nathan drawled softly. Then he turned her around and forced her to look into his eyes. His face fell a little away from her, wearing his signature evil smile on his face.

The air around them seemed to be heated as they got closer to each other, too close to even smell each other's breath. With Nathan's intent gaze, he captured the slight trace of panic that flashed through Mandy's eyes.

"Why doesn't it matter? Why doesn't it matter? Since you have a girlfriend, you should know how to treat her well." Mandy didn't dare to move. But she enunciated these words with the demeanor of a righteous woman.

"You are jealous," he teased. His breath fell on Mandy's cheeks as he spoke. Mandy felt herself blush at his words or perhaps at his nearness. She lowered her head at once, avoiding eye contact with him.

"Why would I feel jealous? Cut it out, Mr. Jin. Don't make fun of me." Mandy reached out her hands and tried to push him away again, but Nathan was insistent. He caught her hands and forcibly guided them to wrap around his waist.

"Call me Nathan!" Nathan ordered.

For a split-second, Mandy was spaced out. Her mind went blank, and she even forgot to react for a moment. She was stunned into silence there.

"Call me Nathan!" Nathan ordered again. It was surprising that he hadn't shown his impatience at all. Generally, he didn't want to say what he had said a second time.

"Na… Mr. Jin," Mandy almost blurted out, "Nathan." Luckily, she responded in time and immediately exclaimed, "Mr. Jin."

"Do you know the consequence of turning against me?" Nathan uttered in a cold voice as he squinted his eyes dangerously.

Long before Mandy could make any response, Nathan's thin lips had already delved into her mouth, covering her lips. His breath emitted a faint smell of alcohol. And when he felt she was distracted, Nathan stuck his tongue into her mouth, exploring her both gently and aggressively.

Kiss?

Suddenly, she recalled a picture that made her unhappy. It was so vivid that it jolted her back to her senses. She seemed to have seen Nathan kissing that woman in a room, though she couldn't pinpoint where. Why was he so good at kissing? He must have selected a lot of women to train him.

Mandy shoved him away, but Nathan didn't budge. He hugged her tightly instead and didn't want to let go of her at all.

Fear engulfed her, and in a panic, she took a bite out of Nathan's tongue. She had unwillingly tasted the blood that instantly spread in her mouth. Unexpectedly, Nathan still didn't take his hands off.

"Are you crazy? Nathan," Mandy cried out. She struggled furiously and finally pushed Nathan away.

"Yes, I'm crazy!" Nathan breathed his words with a self-deprecating laugh. His scarlet eyes turned icy cold as he held her gaze, not even wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
