Chapter 722 Keep A Distance

Turning around, Nathan smiled and gave Mandy a gentle look.

"I'm in the underground garage of the MK International Restaurant. I'm sitting inside my car." Audrey was in a daze as she looked at herself in the mirror. Maybe it was because she was too drunk, but for some reason, an absurd scenario kept playing in her head.

"Send me the address. I'll send someone to pick you up." While still on the call, Nathan hugged and gave a doting smile to Mandy.

The smile brought unusual ease to Mandy's mind. Closing her eyes, she snuggled into his warm chest. After taking a deep breath, she relished the minty scent of her man.

Audrey's face went stiff. After what seemed like years to her, she said, "Nathan. Can't you come and pick me up?" She bit her lips, feeling helpless. She looked picture-perfect, aggrieved, and frail.

"I'm already in bed. Serge will be there in ten minutes," said Nathan.

Audrey felt displeased and unsatisfied with this kind of treatment. She curled her lips and asked, "Nathan, is it because of your wife?"

"Audrey, don't get me wrong, but I won't come even if my wife is okay with it. After all, it's so late in the night. I know we are friends, but we still have to keep some boundaries," Nathan said without giving Audrey any time to refute.

Audrey's eyes instantly turned red and tears began trickling down. Using her slender fingers, she quietly wiped the tears away. She took a breath and sobbed. "Nathan, I'm sorry for bothering you so late. I didn't mean to do it, it's just… It's just my first day working at the hospital, and the doctors in my department already don't like me. I didn't do anything wrong, but they are still so hostile towards me. I feel so wronged! The Dean of the hospital held a party this evening in the guise of welcoming me. They kept toasting me. I drank too much. I'm sorry."

Nathan wasn't touched by her words. "You are just overthinking," he said with

n and work!" exclaimed Mandy.

"So… Your dream is to become a panda?" Nathan raised his eyebrows, and the corner of his mouth formed a smile.

Mandy shrugged and spread out her hands. "Yes, it's so good to be a panda. I will be cute, soft, and well taken care of every day. There would be no need to manage human relationships. Also, animals are kinder than humans."

Nathan embraced her tighter. "It's okay if you want to be a panda. But you have to remember, you will be my wife in the next life too."

Hearing Nathan's commitment, Mandy instantly cheered up. After that, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle. "I didn't expect that you would have the same dream as mine."

"If I could choose, then I would choose to become an animal for sure. Although an animal's lifespan is short, it's still better and simpler than a human life. Anyway... Whatever species you decide to become in the next life, I will become the same and protect you in the next life too." Nathan used his long arms to hold Mandy's head and ruffled her hair while smiling.

Mandy and Nathan hugged each other with passion. After standing on the balcony for a while, they went into the room and found Adrian asleep. When she looked at his sleeping face, a warm feeling rushed into Mandy's heart.
