Mandy felt awkward. She felt desperate to take Adrian away from Audrey's arms, but that would make
her look too narrow-minded and even pathetic. After she pondered it over, she decided to stay calm.
"Nathan, is this the Miss Yao that you mentioned to me?" Mandy smiled, her eyes narrowing. Then, she
grabbed Nathan's hand and held it. They walked down the stairs together toward Audrey.
Mandy behaved in an elegant and hospitable way. She carried herself with her chin up and played her
role as Mrs. Jin.
"Audrey, let me introduce my wife. This is Mandy. Mandy, this is my friend, Audrey." Before Audrey
knew it, Nathan and Mandy were already standing hand-in-hand by her side. She still had Adrian in her
arms. Her smile gave off a feeling of purity and kindness.
However, in Mandy's eyes, Audrey was nothing but a cunning seductress. Obviously, she was the
same sort of person as Eve. Mandy never thought that her rivals in love would appear one after the
other like some kind of fungus she could not shake.
"Oh, yes. Ms. Zhou was my junior in college. She was a famous student in our medical school. At that
time, she had a lot of suitors. She is so beautiful, and she has a good character. You two are indeed a
good match," Audrey complimented Mandy, but she was not sincere at all. She had already learned to
hide her emotions.
Her reputation at the Swiss hospital was great because she had never become angry. She believed
that only children argued with one another. Adults should not be angry because it was not worth it.
Because of her good temper, she had maintained a fairly good relationship with almost all her
colleagues.
"Miss Yao, weren't you popular in medical school as well? I remember you as one of the really famous
ones." Mandy smiled and let go of Nathan's hand. She walked over to Adrian and held him in her arms.
Then, she said in a tender voice, "It's time for breakfast, dear."
Adrian nodded his head.
Audrey smiled, thinking, 'The child is close to his mother after all.' When Audrey was in Switzerland,
she had exerted a lot of effort to cure Adrian. She even fell sick several times due to overworking
herself.
Adrian had suffered a lot since he was born, and because of that, his tolerance had far surpassed that
of an ordinary child.
Mandy and Adrian had been separated from each other for many years, but at last, blood was thicker
than water. She seldom scolded him, and it was Nathan who disciplined him. Well, Nathan was not
really strict with him. As Adrian grew up without a mother's love, he tried to give him as much love as
possible.
"Audrey, what brings you here so early in the morning?" Nathan asked with a smile.
"You left your wallet at my house yesterday. Haven't you realized that?" Audrey smiled faintly and took
out Nathan's wallet. Her cheeks were as ruddy as peach blossoms.
A little embarrassed, Nathan said politely, "Thank you."
Mandy did not get angry. She sat down at the table and looked at the direction where Nathan was. She
bought him the wallet three years ago. She did not expect that he would keep using it for three years.
Its quality was quite good. At that time, Mandy bought it for more than 7, 000. It was not a very
expensive gift, but Mandy used her own money to buy it. It was the best she could afford back then
with her financial capability.
Nathan was a very picky man, but he happily accepted anything that Mandy bought him.
"Have you had breakfast, Miss Yao? Why don't you come and eat with us?" Mandy invited Audrey with
a smile. She looked courteous and graceful and was not as angry as last night.
Mandy was actually a smart woman. She knew that Audrey had come to check her out. Of course, as
clever as Mandy was, she would not reveal her true emotions in front of Audrey.
Only when she was with Nathan would she stop disguising herself.
Today, when she met Audrey, she felt much relieved. It was obvious that Nathan treated Audrey as a
friend, and Audrey had a hopeless crush on him.
Audrey's eyes had betrayed her.
She did not expect that Mandy would invite her for breakfast. She thought in her heart, 'Are you sure
you want to have breakfast with me? Or are you just acting?'
But Audrey still smiled and said, "Thank you so much. I didn't have breakfast before I came here."
Mandy smiled gently. She thought, 'You're not going to win anyway, Audrey. Nathan is mine.'
During breakfast, the atmosphere in the room was a little depressing.
Usually, when Mandy and Nathan had breakfast at home, the atmosphere was light. Today was
different. Maybe it was because there was an outsider at their table. Mandy kept silent, and Nathan
also did not say anything. Adrian was good at observing people. When he saw that his parents did not
say anything, he, too, kept silent.
Mandy was eating wonton. The wonton was hot. She blew the wonton in the spoon slowly, completely
ignoring Audrey.
"Do you like wontons the most, Miss Zhou? I remember Nathan likes sandwiches the most for
breakfast," Audrey started.
Mandy looked up at Nathan with her almond-shaped eyes and tried to feed him with her spoon. She
said in a sweet voice, "Honey, have a taste. Does the wonton taste good today?"
Nathan was very cooperative. He finished the wonton in one gulp and said with a smile, "Well, it's
delicious."
"Why didn't I know you liked sandwiches for breakfast? A sandwich is so dry. I think wonton is way
better." Mandy scooped another wonton and grinned at Nathan.
"Well, I like wonton better than sandwiches now." He looked at her with a doting
smile.
