Chapter 298 Nothing Happened That Night

"I think it's necessary. I've known him for many years. He's not a bad guy, or Nacy wouldn't like him so much. Everyone is capable of making mistakes, including you." Mandy calmed down, determined to reach the crux of the matter. She had a clear mind now.

On the other hand, Nacy didn't say a word. She thought what Mandy said made sense. That was why she didn't dislike Mandy. However, she was really angry at her when she learned that Bruce was in love with her. But later she told herself it wasn't Mandy's fault, and she decided to let go of the grudge.

"Okay, I promise you." Nathan lifted his eyes a little, and a flicker of anger flashed through them.

Led by him, Mandy went to that dark room. As soon as he opened the door, a corrosive smell wafted in the air. Immediately, Mandy covered her mouth, looking like she wanted to retch.

Realizing what this atmosphere was doing to her, Nathan instinctively hugged her. With a frown etched on his face, he asked, "Are you all right?"

"I'm fine." Mandy shook her head. She had to do surgeries every day, so she was used to the smell of blood. However, the intermingled smell of decay and blood felt unbearable to her. This further made her imagine how badly wounded Bruce must be.

Just when such thoughts were going through her mind, she spotted Bruce, sitting helplessly on a chair. He wore a clean, dark green shirt. His dirty and wounded face had already been washed by the servants. Nathan had been afraid that if Mandy saw Bruce in such a mess, she would be frightened. So he had asked the servants to change his clothes.

Mandy walked into the dark room. She looked around and felt that the atmosphere inside was so depressing that she could suffocate and die. Wearing a pale face, Bruce sat on the chair, with his thin lips gently pursed.

She walked towards the chair opposite Bruce. Nathan gently closed the door, hoping to gi

t's my business, not yours." Mandy's voice was calm, but it had an edge. As she spoke, she thought about the relationship she shared with Nathan.

Bruce's heart sank when he heard her words. He was overcome by an urge to weep. He kept telling himself he was a man. But at this moment, nothing could help him hold back his tears.

He realized he had lost his love forever. He felt like there was a galaxy between him and Mandy. They could look into each other's eyes but could not walk towards their future hand in hand.

There was nothing in the world more heartbreaking than failing to get the one you loved.

"Mand, beware of Eve. That woman is too scheming. You can't win against her." A trace of disappointment flashed through Bruce's dark eyes, but soon he pulled himself together and changed the topic.

"Have you cooperated with her?" Clenching her fists, Mandy found there was sweat in her warm palms. She was a little nervous and couldn't wait to know the answer from Bruce. But there was a part of her that was afraid to hear his answer.

"Yes," Bruce said and nodded his head with shame. At this moment, he hated himself more than he had hated anyone else.

"So nothing happened between us that night, right?" Mandy asked with a newfound hope.
