Meeting You Was Fate

Chapter 19 A Wave of Hostility

"Yes, I know her," Nathan confirmed without hesitation as if they had known each other for a long time.

Nathan looked at Mandy's hazel eyes. They sparkled even without beaming a smile. At the table, they sat opposite each other; hence, when they looked up, they faced each other directly. Nathan noticed Mandy's fair skin blushed automatically as their gaze met. Her innocent face intrigued Nathan and sent unknown sparks of emotion to his manhood. He smiled when she blushed and thought, 'This woman is shy.'

"Miss Zhou is so young and promising! She is the youngest surgeon at our hospital. We should not underestimate her!" Tyler remarked to help Mandy build her confidence. As a man himself, he had immediately noticed Nathan's overt interest in Mandy.
