Chapter 328 The More Perfect It Was, The More Suspicious It Was Going To Look

Through the thin pajamas, Nathan felt the temperature of Mandy's hands. A frown crept on his face.

He wrapped her hands with his and put them on his chest while asking, "Why are your hands so freaking cold?"

"When I woke up, I found that you weren't around. It left me a little scared. I guess that explains why I am a little flustered," Mandy said in a soft voice, pursing her lips.

"Honey, I just went out to answer a phone call," Nathan said while smiling. The fact that being separated from him made her so sad filled him with contentment.

"It's so late. Who was calling at this hour?" Mandy asked out of curiosity.

"It was a call from Fred. And please don't worry. It was for a small issue, nothing major," Nathan explained to Mandy as he patted her back, his eyes full of affection.

"Okay," Mandy said nodding in understanding. Slowly, she stretched out her right hand to smooth the slight frown on Nathan's face.

Men always behaved like this. They liked to seem strong, but deep down, they also worried. And right now, Nathan's expression betrayed him, showing her his true feelings. 'If Fred has called at this hour, then it surely must have something to with the company. Or perhaps it was a matter related to Justin, ' Mandy thought, worrying a lot.

Even though Mandy had so many questions, she kept it to herself. After all, Nathan always dealt with things in a firm and resolute manner. He was even more domineering than Jason when he was young. Nothing was impossible for him in the business world. Mentioning it would only make him angry.

He had lived all his life with success. Nothing was beyond reach for him.

Although he was powerful in City A, there were still some people who opposed his existence, such as Colin, the young district attorney. They were classmates in high school but never managed to become friends. Their personalities made them incompatible with each other. Moreover, when they were in high school, Nathan seldom went to school, so they didn't meet each other often.

And tonight, Fred

for you," looking at her charming smile, Nathan promised at once.

She put a warm smile on her extremely beautiful face and felt warm in her heart. In fact, before Nathan's presence in her life, she smiled seldom. Mandy complained that God was unfair to her. She had lost her best friend, and everything else was going bad in her life. But now with Nathan, life was finally happy. It was like God was making amends for what he had done to her.

Nathan's big palm covered part of Mandy's right shoulder and collar-bone. Suddenly, he slowly moved his fingers to her chest and unbuttoned her shirt step by step.

Realizing what he was doing, Mandy blushed. She took his hands and asked him in a low voice, "What are you doing, Nathan?"

"Take off your shirt and give it to me. I'll go to work in it." The corner of his mouth curved upwards. Normally, Nathan liked his clothes very clean. He would never wear it unless it was washed and ironed. But today, for some reason, he wanted to wear the shirt that Mandy had worn.

Perhaps it was because he loved the clean smell of her body. If he wore the clothes that she was wearing, he could make himself believe she was around.

Hearing this, Mandy's bright eyes blinked, and she was moved. But then, she licked her lips and said with a smile, "Nathan, I don't think it's a good idea."

"Why not?" Nathan asked.
