Chapter 105 I Don't Feel Dislike To Her
Chapter 105 I Don't Feel Dislike To Her
As a doctor, she often spent her days in the hospital, so she wasn't fond of staying there that much, especially now that she was required to rest. Other than she found it dreary, she also didn't have someone to accompany her, even Nathan. Judging from his expression, she was certainly sure that he would go to work.
"Where do you want to go?" Nathan asked affectionately with a doting smile on his face.
His attitude was different from how he behaved last night. Mandy was perplexed. Looking steadily at Nathan, she felt cautious as she mumbled softly, "I want to go home."
"Let's go. Didn't you say that you want to watch a movie? Let's go to the cinema," Nathan suggested tenderly, and he held her gaze.
"What? Really?" she stammered, feeling bewildered as ever. She even tried convincing herself that maybe, he decided not to work today. Thrilled, she then mentally gave him a thumbs up, like a happy kid!
"Really. You go wash yourself first," he reassured her. Then in one swift motion, he removed her quilt and held her gently as he helped her out of bed.
Sudden expectations and excitement were showing in Mandy's eyes, so she smiled almost sweetly at him and eagerly said, "Thank you."
Everything seemed to be back to normal again, where Nathan became warm and considerate once more. Mandy liked this side of him so much, making her heart swell in bliss. In no time, she trotted gaily into the bathroom, humming a song while brushing her teeth.
Nathan's eyes danced with amusement the whole time he watched her overjoyed reaction. Settling himself on the sofa, the corner of his lips curled into a gentle smile, and he could not help but shake his
head at the sight of Mandy's face that seemed to glow with happiness.
Realizing that they had been together for so many days, and never once had he accompanied her for a whole day, and not even letting her be so happy, Nathan thought he owed Mandy a lot. Although he was convinced to get Mandy, he should try to treat her properly.
"Hey, it seems that I don't have any clothes." She poked her head out of the toilet and looked at Nathan expectantly. Her eyes seemed to be pleading silently.
Nathan approached her and handed a paper bag to her. Seeing her innocent look, he smiled but didn't say anything.
Mandy eagerly took the bag. Inside she found a chiffon dress, which was very suitable for this season.
Ever since they lived together, Nathan had been taking good care of her in her daily life. He provided the clothes she wore, and every dress was a limited edition. Mandy knew about branded clothes, and she was quite familiar with it. But every time she donned on a dress worth more than ten thousand, she felt like she was new money.
With those thoughts running wildly in her mind, she appeared a little shy after dressing up. With her fingers twisting anxiously, she lowered her head and made her way to Nathan's side.
Nathan just calmly glanced at Mandy when he sensed her presence beside him. He rationalized that this woman was not astonishingly beautiful, but her facial features were delicate and gentle enough, making people feel pleasant to look at her.
"Um... What movie are we going to watch?" Mandy inquired, suddenly beaming at him.
"You can watch whatever you like," Nathan didn't ask for much but asked for Mandy's opinion instead. After all, he wanted to compensate her to make it up to her.
"Let me check on the Internet." Mandy touched her pocket as usual. Habitually, she hid her mobile phone in her white uniform. But today, she felt something was amiss. Where was her phone?
"Ha-ha... I didn't bring my cell phone with me. Can I borrow yours?" While sitting on the front passenger seat, Mandy finally mustered up her courage to ask. Earlier, she couldn't bring herself to talk to him. The cell phone was the sort of thing that was quite personal, so she was quite cautious.
As if it was not a big deal, Nathan casually took his phone out of his pocket and handed it to Mandy without any hesitation. "The password is your birthday," he said coldly.
Hearing what he said, Mandy was stunned. She had never expected that Nathan would use her birthday to set the password for his phone. For it was a norm that people would use the birthday of their loved one as the password. Did Nathan like her? She had no idea why, but it gave her heart a tiny spark of hope.
"Well... Can I ask you why it is my birthday?" Mandy licked her lips as she grew nervous, and her heart was not even helping her, for it beat like a drum inside her chest. And like a teenager, her shining eyes were brimming with expectation.
"Is it strange to use the birthday of my own woman as the password?"
Mandy snapped her mouth closed in an instant. She looked a little embarrassed, and she felt a little weird to hear Nathan say such words. It sounded like it came out wrong from Nathan. She immediately recalled that when she was still dating Daniel, the password of his cell phone was also her birthday, which seemed to be a little secret between lovers. So he was right! It was not unusual.
Lowering her gaze to the phone in her hand, she checked the background photo and noted that it was plain and simple. It was nothing like her phone that had an ostentatious wallpaper. Perhaps, this might be the difference between men and women. Men always preferred simple things.
Unbeknownst to Mandy, Nathan was a person who hated others to use his cellphone, but he didn't mind Mandy using it. It was as if he trusted her very much. Though he also hated the idea of letting her, then why could he tolerate this woman in front of him?
Mandy took her time in searching for what she liked on the Internet. And in the end, she chose a recent hit American movie. She preferred to watch a romantic movie. But how could she possibly watch it with a brute like Nathan? 'What if he lost control of himself and wanted to do it in the cinema, it would be too bad!' She almost cringed at the thought of it.
On the way to the cinema, the sky was clear, and the sun was shining brightly. Nathan was playing a rhythmic love song in the car, which made people want to go back to the good old times on the campus in one night.
"Let's have breakfast first," suggested Nathan.
When she heard this, Mandy turned her head to look at him and inquired, "Where are we going to eat?"
"What do you want to eat?"
"I want to eat a rice ball at the street stands."
The corner of Nathan's mouth twitched. This woman must have grown up eating snacks rubbish. When he asked her what she wanted to eat, she dared say she wanted to eat a rice ball at the street stands.
"That is unwholesome food!" Nathan turned down Mandy's unreasonable request directly. His face was expressionless.
"Okay, then I won't eat," Mandy hissed angrily, crossing her arms.
"Then we can go home and do it," Nathan countered as he smiled slyly.
Mandy pouted in defeat, reluctantly admitting that he won. Unhappily, she stared at him and meekly said, "Then what do you want to eat?"
She had never seen such a shameless person!
They quarreled and argued on their way until they arrived at their destination. Lacing his fingers to hers, Nathan dragged Mandy into a Hong Kong-style restaurant next to the cinema.
Done with their breakfast, they eased their way towards the cinema's entrance. Mandy and Nathan were walking one after the other. Nathan was walking in front while Mandy was following closely behind. Nathan suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Mandy was too absorbed with something else, and she did not notice Nathan had halted his steps. Without warning, she bumped her nose against Nathan's strong back. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
"Oh, my God... My nose!" Mandy yelped, whining out painfully. She frowned as she gently rubbed her nose with one hand and silently glared at Nathan.
"Who told you to think about other things while walking? You deserve it," he threw a cold glance at her while mocking her without mercy.
But in the next second, Nathan took her left hand and held it firmly. Mandy suddenly felt a little awkward and tried her best to take her hand back, but unfortunately, he wouldn't budge and gripped her hand more tightly instead.
"Let me go. Why do you hold my hand in public?" Mandy whispered furiously.
"You are my woman. What's wrong with holding your hand? We have done more intimate things than this. Do you still mind that now?" Nathan stopped and bent over, smiling ambiguously by Mandy's ear.
Mandy was instantly petrified!
'Oh, my God! How could I meet such a shameless person!' Mandy wished she could die.
