Meeting You Was Fate

Confused with Nathan's unlikely expression, he asked, "Mr. Jin, what are you looking at?" The deputy mayor did not wait for an answer and curiously looked in the direction of Nathan's gaze. He was looking at the woman sitting on the bar counter.

"Nothing," Nathan said coldly, brushing off his thoughts. He turned to the deputy mayor, hid his emotions, and tried to focus on their conversation.

"Well, Mr. Jin. Have a smoke," the deputy mayor said. He offered to light a cigarette for Nathan.

Nathan took the cigarette and sandwiched it in between his two fingers. He would hit it from time to time, hoping the nicotine would relax his nerves. Against the light, there was a faint loneliness on his face.

"Mr. Jin, what do you think about my proposal?" The deputy mayor tried to start another conversation. He moved closer. "To tell you the truth, I'm more than willing to sell at the lowest price..." he murmured near Nathan's ear.

Unfortunately, Nathan wasn't paying much attention as he hit his cigar indifferently. He was totally covered by smoke.
