Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 2

As the lights flickered, the night was extraordinarily bustling in City A.

It was Valentine's Day.

There were many couples walking on the street, some smiling and some playing.

But Mandy, who was walking home alone after catching her boyfriend cheating on her, felt very sad and lonely.

Not only was today the third anniversary of the day Mandy and Daniel had started dating, but it was also the anniversary of the day Mandy had lost someone dear to her.

Four years ago, her best friend had died in a car accident.

Suddenly, Mandy hated this day very much. She felt like it was cursed.

A gust of wind blew, and Mandy shivered involuntarily.

She was wearing nothing but an off-shoulder embroidered dress. But right now, she didn't want to go home or talk to anyone. She just wanted to be alone.

The truth was, she wasn't sad at all about Daniel's betrayal.

She was just a little disappointed and unwilling to accept the fact that Daniel had been cheating on her behind her back.

She didn't understand why he had done it. And more importantly, she didn't know how long his affair with Celine had been going on.

A few years ago, Mandy and Daniel had studied together abroad. Back then, Daniel had been very considerate and treated her like a queen. After graduation, Daniel had returned to the country, while Mandy had continued to study in England and returned a year later.

Maybe there was something wrong with their relationship because of long distance.

After all, men couldn't resist sexual temptation.

Mandy blinked. Her eyes were so dry that she wanted to cry.

Without meaning to, she had walked right up to the street of the most popular bars in the city.

Looking at the bright neon lights, Mandy shook her head with a helpless smile on her face.

Then, she walked into the nearest bar, Queen Bar. The music inside was deafening, as if it could make everyone inside forget all their troubles and have fun. Plenty of attractive young men and women were dancing to the loud music.

All of a sudden, the music stopped playing. Everyone on the dance floor shuffled to a stop and looked expectantly at the DJ.

"Okay, let's find the luckiest lady tonight. Camera, please sweep the floor. Three, two, one. Let's look at the screen!" the host announced in a high-pitched voice.

On the big screen behind the DJ, a close-up image of Mandy's face appeared.

Mandy was shocked. She had never expected something like this to happen.

Without doing anything, she had been thrust into the spotlight.

All eyes were on her. Mandy felt her face burning in embarrassment.

The crowd spontaneously parted for her, reminiscent of the way a crowd would part to make a path for a princess in fairy tales.

"We've found her, the luckiest lady tonight. With a round of applause, let's invite her onto the stage to sing a song for us!"

The host had added fuel to the fire.

Mandy rubbed her dress awkwardly.

What was happening?
