Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 51

Nathan didn't answer Mandy's question further. Instead, he raised his hands and winked at her as if he was sharing his happiness with her.

Mandy had expected Nathan's answer to be like that. Hence, she was not disappointed this time.

"I have hired a maid for you. She'll start coming from tomorrow," Nathan said as he lifted a piece of tissue and wiped his mouth. His beautiful lips moved as the tissue swept over them gently.

"A maid for me? Why? I can take care of myself!" Mandy opined loudly, raising her brows as she pointed at herself with her finger in surprise. She didn't know why Nathan had suddenly hired a maid for her.

"I'm going on a business trip to Australia. It will take about a week until I come back," Nathan informed in a casual tone.

'Oh! So that's the reason!' Mandy thought in her mind. It was not until then that Mandy came to realize that Nathan just wanted to hire a maid to monitor her. She smiled and said, "I don't need a maid. I can take care of myself,"

However, it was good news for Mandy that Nathan was going on a business trip. Mandy could not restrain her heart's delight to hear that. She thought that since he was going on a business trip for one week, then there would be only three weeks left after he came back. Ha-ha! That was great!

Nathan had been observing the sudden play of joy on the expression on Mandy's face. All of a sudden, Nathan loosened up and leaned against the backrest of the chair. He stretched out his left hand with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. "Come here," Nathan said softly.

Mandy walked slowly towards him, wondering what he was going to do next.

"Have a seat, please." Just as Mandy's eyes fell upon the chair, Nathan pulled her into his arms and made her sit on his laps without giving her an option to react.

Mandy's heart started pounding faster. Every time she got close to Nathan, she felt excited and got pulled towards him. This time as well, she could feel the sudden pull inside her stomach. Now, they were sitting intimately, looking at each other's eyes.

"My woman doesn't need to work so hard," Nathan said softly as his eyes darkened. At this moment, his face was calm, full of tenderness and love as he looked intently into Mandy's eyes.

"What? Do you have a split personality?" Mandy could not resist the obvious question from coming out of her mind. Although, right after blurting it out, she had a momentary regret for having said so in such a point-blank manner.

Nathan had a volatile temper, now burning with fever or shivering with cold. Mandy seriously wondered whether he had a split personality. If Nathan didn't have a split personality, she felt that she was going to have a split personality very soon.

He had always either blown hot or cold. At the moment, Nathan's tenderness left Mandy in a bewildered state.

"I feel, it is proper for me to treat my woman nicely!" Nathan chuckled. He could sense the dilemma in Mandy's mind, but he didn't know how to answer her.

"Mand..." Sitting on Nathan's lap, Mandy was trembling with fear. She felt as if her back seemed to have become frozen and numb.

"Sleep with me tonight," Nathan ordered as he suddenly stood up with an evil smile at the corner of his mouth. Nathan lifted Mandy in his strong arms as he frowned slightly. At that moment, as he held Mandy in his arms, he felt that Mandy was really lightweight.

"Why?" Mandy blurted at once. Then as she looked into his passionate eyes, she blushed and mellowed down.

"Don't you think that after this month, we will lead separate lives?" Nathan answered gently yet with a heavy voice as he carried her in his arms, walking towards the bedroom step by step.

Mandy looked at him with her mouth agape. Oh, Nathan hadn't touched her last night, but it didn't mean that he would never touch her. It seemed that she was too sensitive and had over thought about him.

"You are my woman, and you should be more intelligent. You know, I don't like stupid women," Nathan said cryptically. He reminded Mandy that she should be active when it was the right time.

Mandy's heart froze at the thought of it. Mandy was the last person to take the initiative. She'd rather die than take initiative in sex.

Lost in her thoughts, Mandy didn't even realize it when they reached the bedroom. Only when Mandy felt something was soft touching her back, did she realize that she had been put down on the bed by Nathan.

Nathan began to kiss her. His kisses pummeled her lips as if he was punishing her for something.

Mandy was aware that she had made him unhappy tonight because she came back too late. She decided she would never make such a mistake again.

"The week I'm not here will be excluded in our agreed-upon time," Nathan stopped in the act and reminded her softly. His cold lips covered on hers and nibbled gently.

'What?' Mandy became still. Oh, the time when Nathan would be away would be excluded in their agreed-upon time! It seemed that she had rejoiced too soon.

"I… Can I go home and stay for a few days when you are away?" Mandy begged in a trembling voice.

"What do you think?" Instead of answering her question, Nathan counter questioned her. Slowly, he moved his hands to cup her breast.

Mandy trembled all over, but she didn't resist. Instead, she allowed Nathan to rub her breast and thigh. By that time, she had begun to know his temperament. She knew that when she was together with him, the more she resisted, the more violent he would become. Hence, she gave him complete freedom over her body.

Oh, they spent a wonderful and passionate night together.

Mandy didn't even realize when she fell asleep. She only remembered that she felt safe and warm in her dream.

The next morning, the alarm hadn't rung yet. Mandy woke up as she heard the sound of raindrops hitting the window pane. She suddenly sat up on the bed, and her face was pale. At that moment, she looked as though she was struck by a sudden idea.

Mandy looked around and realized that she was left alone in this big room. She didn't even know when Nathan had left. She didn't like this sort of morning very much.

As Mandy tried to move her body, the pain in her lower body reminded her of what had happened last night. She remembered clearly the tender yet bossy look on Nathan's face when he had sex with her.

Mandy closed her eyes and went back to bed without saying anything.

'When will it all end? When will I stop living such a life?' Mandy thought to herself.

Suddenly, her phone alarm started ringing. Mandy picked up her phone and turned the alarm off. She had fought with Nathan last night over her job. Nathan asked her to quit her job. Although Nathan didn't say it again, her mind was still occupied with that thought.

As she put her phone back on the table, Mandy suddenly saw a piece of paper on the nightstand. She gently picked it up and saw a few words written on it, "You must come back home on time before five o'clock every night. You are allowed to visit your house once this week."

The last sentence on the paper made Mandy so happy. She sat up from the bed full of energy. It was so good!

At the moment, Mandy felt that Nathan was indeed a handsome man with a human heart throbbing inside his chest. After all, he was not a very cold-blooded man, as many women perceived him to be.

When Mandy came downstairs, she saw a hearty breakfast on the dining table. Mandy was surprised and thought it must have been prepared by a ghost.

"Good morning, Miss Zhou," Lillian said with a gentle smile as she stepped out of the kitchen.

"Who are you?" Mandy asked with a smile.

Nathan had told Mandy last night that a maid would come to the house, but she didn't expect her to come so soon.

"Miss Zhou, you can call me Lillian. I'll take care of you from now on," Lillian replied with a smile on her face.

At the moment, Mandy felt a sense of kinship with Lillian. She found Lillian very congenial.

"You're welcome, Lillian. Call me Mand, if you like," Mandy didn't like being called Miss Zhou. She felt estranged.

"I dare not, Miss Zhou. Please don't embarrass me," Lillian replied as she shook her head. Nathan had asked her to take good care of Mandy.

"Well, Lillian. You don't have to be formal with me. You know, he has gone abroad, and it's just you and me in this house for the time being." Mandy flashed a sly smile as she coaxed Lillian.
