Opening the WeChat app, he saw three pictures of Lisa sent by Colin with the caption, "Mandy, Lisa
says she misses you very much!"
'Colin, you're so inconsiderate and shameless!' Nathan thought to himself. Anger flared in his heart like
a matchstick against stone. Nathan returned Mandy's cellphone to where he found it, but before he did,
he smiled gracefully and replied to Colin's message. "She's asleep at the moment," the message said.
Upon seeing Nathan's message, Colin did not reply. He just smiled when he saw the message.
At that moment, Nathan was still a little angry. He skimmed through Mandy's conversation history with
Colin and found that she had been chatting with him almost every day. Colin was quite talkative, but
everything he said was about his daughter's health and mood.
'He is such a despicable man!' Nathan screamed inside.
Anger and now jealousy gnawed at Nathan's insides like a carnivorous beast. He tapped on the screen
and sent Colin another message. It said, "Colin, you'd better behave yourself! Don't message my wife
so frequently! Otherwise, I'll kick you out of this city!"
Colin got the message and smiled slightly. Seconds later, he replied casually. His message said,
"Whatever you say. And why are you so angry anyway? Are you scared that your wife will leave you for
me?"
Nathan read Colin's message and immediately wrote back. "Oh, please. You can't be that confident."
Colin knew that Nathan was taunting him, so he decided not to reply anymore. He locked his cellphone
and went to bed.
The next moment, Mandy came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. She was wearing an apricot-
colored silk nightdress, the design of which perfectly showed off her delicate clavicles. She was
combing her hair when she saw Nathan looking at her cellphone. Seeing the tight frown on his
handsome face, Mandy immediately thought something was wrong. She carefully walked up to him and
asked, "What is it, Nathan?"
"Your ex-husband just sent you a message on WeChat. He really cares about you very much, doesn't
he?" Nathan growled. His voice sounded very jealous.
"Are you jealous again, Mr. Jealousy?" Mandy said, pouting. She was speechless.
"Yes! Of course, I'm jealous! You're my wife. I don't want you two keeping in touch with each other!"
Nathan could not help telling the truth. He did not want to tiptoe around the issue anymore. He did not
know how long Colin would still keep in touch with his wife, but he did know that he did not want it.
"You know, we just talk about Lisa, nothing else," Mandy explained softly while carefully striding toward
Nathan. A fresh fragrance came off her soft skin. It completely distracted him.
"My dear Mandy, can't you just cut off contact with him? I really don't like it when you two keep talking
to each other," Nathan said gravely. He put one hand around Mandy's waist and kissed her red lips.
"Colin and I have an adopted daughter. Although Lisa is not my biological daughter, her parents had
treated me so well in the past. How can I be ungrateful?" Mandy reasoned.
"Did you just make Lisa your excuse to chat with your ex-husband every day? Are you choosing to
ignore your husband's feelings and emotions? I have never met such a heartless, shameless person!"
Nathan bellowed.
"Nathan, I've been showing you all my chat histories with Colin. You can even reply to him whenever
you like," Mandy said patiently. She knew that Nathan would get even angrier if she did not explain
things clearly to him.
"Well, I've already replied to him." Nathan handed Mandy's cellphone over to her. The screen displayed
the conversation between him and Colin.
After reading their conversation carefully, Mandy could not help bursting into laughter. "You're so
childish!" she said as she stretched out her hand and messed up Nathan's hair.
"What did you just call me?" Nathan said through gritted teeth as he looked straight into Mandy's eyes.
A hint of danger could be seen in his dark eyes, but they were also full of greedy passion.
"I don't want to discuss this anymore, Mr. Jealousy. It's your turn to take a shower," Mandy said with a
coquettish smile, pushing Nathan away gently with her hands.
"Oh, we're still totally going to talk about this after I step out of the shower."
After Nathan went into the bathroom to take a shower, Mandy stared at her phone screen for a long
while. There was a little worry in her almond-shaped eyes. She had no idea how Nathan had felt when
he was chatting with Colin.
It must be very uncomfortable for one to talk to his or her rival in love. As an arrogant and scheming
man, how could Nathan have borne it?
To speak the truth, Nathan had changed a lot for her.
With that thought, Mandy got a little annoyed with herself. She tossed and turned in bed. After a brief
internal struggle, she thought she should make things clear with Colin.
She slowly and carefully typed a message to him on her cellphone. The message read, "Colin, it's me. I
have been doing some thinking for a while. I think it's better if we keep in touch as little as possible. I
promise to come and visit Lisa once a week, but I think you should stop sending me pictures of her.
Nathan understands that we are co-parenting for Lisa's sake, but I don't want him to feel uncomfortable
with us talking more than we should. I'm very happy with him now, and I love him very much. I care
about you, Colin, and I really hope you find a new wife. Morry is a nice girl, and she likes you very
much. Maybe you should give her a chance to get to know you."
Mandy felt quite drowsy while typing. Before she fell asleep, she sent out the message to Colin.
The next moment, after taking a shower, Nathan stepped out, wearing their couple pajamas. Since
Mandy came to his life, everything he bought was for couples.
He was willing to give the best things to his wife.
"You didn't tuck yourself in. How could you sleep well like that? No wonder you would catch a cold and
a fever without me by your side," Nathan whispered to himself as he stared passionately at Mandy with
his dark eyes.
He caught sight of her cellphone, and he grabbed it from her hand. Upon seeing the phone's screen,
he saw the most recent conversation between her and Colin.
After reading the message carefully, Nathan's eyes widened and sparkled with warmth. He also felt
warm in his heart. At the moment, he regretted blaming Mandy for so long about Colin. Now Nathan
was fully aware that Mandy actually did not want to keep in touch with her ex-husband.
Nathan smiled lightly, and a touch of tenderness appeared in his eyes. He took Mandy into his arms.
The temperature in the room was cold, and she had already fallen asleep. She moved her body and
pressed herself against his warmth.
Nathan's body was like a warm fireplace. Mandy let out a small sigh and pressed her body closer to
him.
