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.
