Chapter 692 Your Bones Always Hurt Me


    Sh looked drop dead gorgeous today. She was donned in an off shoulder red dress with a nipped-in


    waist design. Her makeup was on point. Her hair hung loose inzy beach waves. She looked exotic


    and sultry.


    "Hello, Uncle, Auntie. Hello, Ethon!" Sh noticed people at once, and naturally she greeted Ethon the


    moment she saw him.


    "Oh, look at you my princess! You look ravishing!" Monicaplimented Sh with a kind smile and


    took her hand.


    Ethon just stood there without shifting. He did not seem to be impatient and chose to be silent.


    "Thank you so much, Auntie, for the praise. You look magnificent in the cheongsam. The golden


    embroidery suits you so beautifully!" Sh said coyly in order to please Monica.


    In fact, at the end of the day, they both wanted the same thing. Monica wanted her son to be


    renowned and sessful in theing times. If Ethon and Sh could be engaged in holy matrimony,


    the result would be endless wealth and power for him. Even though the Yu Family itself was


    respectable and wealthy, Monica wanted to marry her son off into a wealthier family. So Monica was


    extremely happy with Sh.


    Fiona, on the other hand, was out of the question. She was poor and humble. If any kind of union


    happened between Ethon and Fiona, Monica would be enraged.


    "I think I will go over there for a walk," Ethon said suddenly. He did not like staying there any longer. So,


    the minute he saw Nathan and Mandy enter the hall, he grabbed the opportunity to escape.


    "Hey, Ethon, what do you mean? Where will you go? Sh just came over to greet us, and you want to


    leave? Is this some deliberate attempt? What happened to the gentleman in you?" Monica tugged at


    Ethon''s arm as sheined.


    "Mom you misunderstood me. I just want to speak to Nathan. Look he is here," Ethon said convincingly.


    He did not want to anger Monica there.


    Just as Monica was about to reply, Sh cut in. With a very forceful smile, she said, " Auntie, let Ethon


    go, please. He has his own dealings. My father is waiting there for us."


    Ethon quickly took off and did not even look back once. He went straight to Nathan and Mandy.


    Nathan had put on a silver grey suit, and Mandy looked angelic in a light green dress. The gauze


    design at the bottom made Mandy look like a magical princess who floated in the wind.


    "Hello, Nathan, Mandy!" Ethon greeted with a happy look on his face.


    Ethon was already working in JS international, and Nathan had put him in a good position. Ethon would


    definitely be promoted right after his graduation from university.


    "Hello, Ethon! Err... Where is Nana? Is she around? Did you not bring her here today?" Mandy asked


    politely as she smiled at Ethon. She looked around. Till that point, she did not notice Fiona.


    Ethon hesitated and bit his lips. He did not know how to answer that. Joshua, the mayor of City A, was


    not at all an ordinary person. All the attendees of his birthday party were extremely distinguished


    guests belonging to the upper ss. It was naturally impossible for a simple girl like Fiona to attend that


    party beside such people.


    "Erm, no, Nana is at home," Ethon prudently said with a stiff face.


    Mandy immediately figured out that something was not right. She immediately reprimanded Ethon,


    "This is your fault, Ethon. You should not have left Nana alone at home. How can she be alone at


    home? You two are living together, right? And you are also in a great rtionship. Have you ced


    yourself in her shoes? Have you thought about how she will feel?"


    "I will go back right away to keep herpany. You know my mom forced me to attend the party. I


    never wanted toe," Ethon said as he lowered his head since he was ashamed of it all.


    Onlookers see more than yers. Nathan understood the difficulties Ethon was in. He stretched his


    hands out and took Mandy in his arms. "Let''s go over there and grab a bite."


    "Okay!" Mandy agreed to go. Mandy realized that Nathan was making a deliberate attempt to change


    the topic. She probably thought too little of what Ethon was going through. She med the boy too


    soon.


    Amidst all the jolly guests, Ethon felt alone. He felt depressed and anxious.


    He felt less of a man as he was incapable of providing the required security to Fiona. He could not


    even fathom how upset Fiona was probably feeling tonight. In hindsight, Fiona did not create any


    ruckus and rather allowed Ethon to attend the party freely.


    Mandy leisurely walked towards the long banquet table and picked up a piece of cake. She ced it on


    a te. Whenever her mood was sour, Mandy would rely on a dessert to brighten up her mood.

    Nathan carefully picked out several tantalizing looking desserts, and when he noticed Mandy, he was


    really confused. Mandy generally did not have a taste for eating dessert. Yet, she was here with a piece


    of cake on her te. That was when he saw that Mandy was wearing a frown on her face, and he


    instantly knew what was happening.


    "Please control your urge to have sweets, you will put on weight!" Nathan teased Mandy as he


    mischievously ced a doughnut on her te.


    "Don''t you like me?" Mandy seemed unhappy. She looked deep into Nathan''s eyes.


    "Of course not. As long as you don''t say that you are losing weight, I will never mind that you are fat,"


    Nathan fooled around as he narrowed his dark eyes.


    Hearing what Nathan just said, Mandy smiled a little. In fact, Mandy would express her wish to lose


    more weight in front of Nathan once in a while. Although the words meant nothing, Nathan would take it


    seriously.


    "Okay, fine, I won''t say it again. Happy?" Mandy picked up another piece of cake and put it on Nathan''s


    te. She knew very well that Nathan did not like desserts, so she teased him and said, "You must be


    as fat as me then!"


    "Ha-ha! You are just a bag of bones. They hurt me when I try to hug you! Let''s put on some meat here


    and there!" Nathan joked as he looked at her up and down.


    Mandy blushed at the proposal, and she smiled. She punched him yfully and in a soft voice said,


    "You are such a pervert!"


    "Oh, my pretty darling!"


    Nathan and Mandy were lost in each other as they chatted.


    Simon and Bonnie made their entry with a bang. Simon was all suited up in white with a ck shirt


    tucked inside. Bonnie looked beautiful in a long, light blue dress that had ace stamen. Everyone


    turned heads to look at them.


    Standing tall, Simon wore a delicate face. He was refined in his actions and behavior. He remained


    calm and conducted himself as a proper adult. After the divorce, he never smiled much, he maintained


    a poker face, and funnily enough, it suited his temperament.


    Almost every man in the party was wearing dark today, but it was only Simon who was wearing a white


    suit. Naturally, he stood out in the crowd.
