Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 70

Mandy unknowingly stared at him in silence for such a long time, but it felt like she could not see enough of his face. Could there be some special magic on his face?

Nathan's appearance was so perfect that it fell under Mandy's definition of her ideal type. When she was a young girl, and like any other girl, she too was obsessed with handsome boys. If they were cool as well, then it would be a plus point. But now, being handsome might not give her a sense of security.

At her age, her standards for choosing her spouse were now far different.

"Am I handsome?" Mandy was still in a daze when she suddenly heard Nathan's magnetic and deep voice. His drawl sounded lazy and sleepy. It was exceedingly pleasant to hear.

But she was panic-stricken, so she decided to lay back on the bed immediately. She carefully pulled the quilt on top of her and pretended to be dead asleep.

When Nathan turned to face her, he was smirking. Then he rolled over under the quilt, and in no time, he positioned himself on top of Mandy.

Frightened, Mandy didn't dare to open her eyes and kept up with her pretense instead. She waited patiently to know what Nathan would want to do.

Nathan stared at her intently. He was amused, and he tried hard not to laugh because he knew she was only feigning sleep. Bending his head lower, his warm lips soon covered her soft lips. He gave her wet kisses as he could no longer control his desire. His act made Mandy's heart beat faster involuntarily. And Nathan seemed enchanted when two red clouds appeared on her lovely cheeks.

He was such a good kisser. And with gentle persuasion, he always got to arouse Mandy's sensual nerve. He bit her lips again, tasting her beauty bit by bit.

It was not their first kiss, but her reaction was priceless and so precious like a young girl, who had just had her first kiss with her lover. And every time she got to kiss him, she felt shy all over again.

Nathan liked the way she reacted, the way her body responded. And the more he kissed her, the more he became passionate. His hand was now tugging the hem of her pajamas.

Mandy suddenly became nervous when she felt his hand on her. The warmth of his hand jolted her to wakefulness from her fake sleep. Thinking of all the possibilities, she instinctively grabbed his hand and tried to stop him.

Knowing how Nathan excelled in sexual performance, he would never stop until and unless Mandy was half dead.

Besides, if she left him doing what he wanted to do now, she would be late for work.

"Don't do that!" Mandy gasped. She was panting. She looked hot and attractive like a rose with her flushed face, and her breathing was uneven and short after being provoked by Nathan.

"Don't do what?" a smirk appeared on Nathan's face as he asked, deliberately teasing her.

"You don't have to go to work?" Mandy answered him with another question instead. There was a lingering softness in her gaze as she remembered how Nathan stayed with her yesterday when she was sick. She didn't know why, but she was deeply moved.

"Why? Are you afraid that I will be late for work?" Nathan sarcastically replied. He was the boss of JS International, and he could go to work at any time he wished. Why was she so stupid? He mused, slightly annoyed.

"No, I'm afraid I will be late for work." Mandy hastily took his hand out from under her pajamas, seeing Nathan immersed himself in his narcissism.

Nathan was speechless. This woman was seriously a workaholic. Why did she like to go to work so much? He groaned inwardly. But then, as if to console himself, he noted mentally, 'Maybe I didn't do well enough last night. Next time, I'll make her unable to get out of bed.'

"Come home early after work. Cook for me." Nathan abruptly rolled over from Mandy, his face devoid of any emotion.

"Yes!" Mandy blinked her eyes and agreed obediently.

Nathan was quite pleased with her reply. This woman was well behaved, but he clearly knew that she possessed a bad temper. Sometimes she was as docile as a bird, who wanted people to take care of her gently, while sometimes she was as obstinate as a hedgehog, making people want to remove all the spines on her. For him, he preferred the obedient and sensible Mandy.

At the No. 1 High School of City A

Inside the teachers' office of the second grade of senior high, Fiona worriedly kept pacing around, and her distraught face looked pale.

Someone had released her background on the BBS of their school last time. Although Bruce had handled it well previously, there were rumors up again this time. And what was worst, some photos of Fiona's parents were posted on the Internet.

Bruce knew she couldn't bear it, so she had been called to his office.

As the administrator of the BBS, Bruce instantly deleted all the posts and successfully found out the IP address of the poster. But the ID account had sent the posts in a black Internet cafe, so no one knew who posted them.

"Nana, please do eat something first. Be a good girl, okay?" he insisted as he had always treated Fiona as his sister. Bruce completed his academic degree from a normal school. Then he had started his career in teaching at the No. 1 High School of City A. He was only a few years older than his high school students, and he had put a lot of effort into cultivating them.

Fiona performed well in her class. In every exam, her grade always landed her into the top three. She had zero tolerance for mistakes. And she aimed for nothing but to excel in everything. So Bruce naturally developed his fondness of her based on her attitude of being a hard-working student. Besides, he had a close relationship with Mandy, so he took special care of Fiona.

Though it occurred to him, he was still unsure if it was because of his special care that trouble had been caused for Fiona.

While he had figured out who was behind this, he couldn't say anything since there was no conclusive evidence.

"Mr. Xu, I'm not hungry. I'll go back first. There is a lot of homework left," she mumbled weakly. Wearing a weary smile, Fiona pretended as if nothing had happened.

"How can I feel relieved to see you in this way? We must have dinner first." Bruce looked sullen. He felt sorry for this girl.

Fiona was a proud girl. And with all that had happened to her parents, she needed to be competitive as she had to study hard. She never got to share how sad she was except with Mandy, the only person she could trust.

"Mr. Xu, I really can't eat anything." She bit her dry lips and looked a little lonely.

Bruce hesitated as he mulled over his options, 'Should I call her sister, Mandy? Otherwise, she won't be able to go back to school in this situation.'

In this advanced digital age, everything was taken by storm with the fast development of the Internet, because those photos he deleted from the school forum were still stored on the mobile phones of a lot of students. So Bruce couldn't check their mobile phones one by one.

"Mr. Xu, I am a little confused about this problem. Can you help me check it?" Fiona felt weak when she tried to show him the math book in her hands.

The picture had been a big blow to her. As a result of excessive depression and low blood glucose, Fiona fainted.

Fortunately, Bruce was quick enough to catch her. He immediately scooped her in his arms and rushed her to JR Hospital.

On the way to the hospital, Bruce gave Mandy a call, who was at that time ready to go home from work. As soon as she heard that her sister had fainted, she felt so disturbed that she didn't even take her white uniform off. She immediately dashed to the outpatient hall and anxiously waited for Fiona.

"Doctor Wang, how is my sister?" Mandy asked worriedly.

Fiona was lying in the outpatient room. Her face was as pale as a sheet of paper. Doctor Wang had just examined her.

"Don't worry, Doctor Zhou. Your sister is fine. She merely has mild malnutrition. And what's more, she was too emotional today, so she suddenly passed out. I am giving her an intravenous drip. She will wake up soon."
