Meeting You Was Fate

"Fiona, I can't help but feel that this is hopeless," Tina confessed as they walked out the restaurant. She ran her hand through her hair and sighed.

Hearing this, Fiona took Tina's left hand in hers, and they carefully peered inside the window. There, they saw Mandy and Bruce were talking to each other cheerfully.

"Well, if I'm being honest, I think that Mr. Xu likes my older sister," exclaimed Fiona. In truth, she was quite pleased with herself as her sixth sense was obviously spot on.

"Why do I feel that the two of us should be embarrassed?" Tina sighed.

"Why are you feeling embarrassed? If Mr. Xu becomes my brother-in-law, no one in school can ever do anything bad to us. We'd be practically untouchable! Isn't that great?" Fiona said, giving a hearty laugh. There were a lot of thoughts that flashed through Fiona's mind as she listened to their conversation. Nevertheless, she was quite optimistic about Mandy and Bruce's blooming relationship.

The dinner ended in a harmonious atmosphere. When Bruce politely offered that he would be glad to drive them back home, Mandy was very delighted.

At the MC Garden

Mandy called Lillian and told her that she wouldn't be back to the villa tonight. At that moment, Lillian didn't know what to say. She only always did what Mr. Jin had told her.

"Fiona, Mandy, have you had dinner yet?" Madeline asked as she stepped out of the kitchen with a plate of fruit salad.

"Yes. We had dinner at a restaurant," replied Fiona. Reaching out, she grabbed a slice of fruit from the plate.

In the Zhou Family, Madeline and Stanley had always preferred Fiona over their own daughter. They doted on her very much.

"I have something to tell you, Mandy," Madeline said seriously as she turned off the television.

"What is it, Mom?" Mandy asked as she put a piece of watermelon into her mouth. 'It's so cozy and warm here at home!' she thought as she sighed to herself.

Turning to Stanley, she gave a quick wink. In truth, she had hoped that Stanley would be the one to say this to Mandy, but Stanley was unwilling to say
