Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1688

The wait was torturous, and even another minute more was unbearable.

Mavis was on the brink of losing her composure entirely.

Looking up at the starry sky, she whispered, "Where are you?"

…

Meanwhile, in a small fishing village on the border of Gurenchti, a young woman was tending to an unconscious man.

The man, even with his injuries and pale, weakened state, had an undeniably handsome face.

Kristen Serrano carefully placed a damp cloth on his forehead, trying to reduce his fever.

She had been taking care of him for three days now.

The man had a phone, a gun, and several chips and other items, all of which she had placed on the table beside him.

She stared at the handsome man lying on the bed and could not help but feel a flutter of attraction, especially since she knew exactly who he was.

If only such an outstanding man could be hers…

However, she had her orders to follow.

While Kristen was lost in thought, the man on the bed let out a faint groan, and his fingers twitched.

Kristen quickly took his hand and gently called out, "Sir, wake up. Sir?"

The soft, melodic voice reached Nathaniel's ears, and he slowly opened his eyes.

His usually sharp, blue eyes were clouded in a daze, his vision blurry.

After a few minutes, his sight began to clear, and he immediately saw a familiar face.

He froze, stuttering weakly, "N-Nana?"

Nathaniel tried to grasp the 'Sheena' in front of him, but he lacked the strength.

Struggling to sit up, the pain from his injuries shot through him, making it impossible to think clearly.

"Sir, are you feeling unwell?"

He looked at the cloth bandages wrapped around his wounds and slowly sat up, taking in his surroundings.

The place was rustic and simple.

Across the room, Kristen was busy in the kitchen.

Hearing the movements, Kristen came over with a bowl of thick herbal concoction.

"My grandma is the local healer. She might not be as good as city doctors, but she's undergone basic medical training and helped many people. She wants you to drink this; it will help with your recovery."

Nathaniel stared at her, noticing the innocence in her eyes—an innocence untouched by the harshness of the world.

She had thick, dark hair and fair skin.

Even though she was dressed simply without any accessories, her youthful beauty was evident.

Moreover, her resemblance to Sheena was uncanny, and Nathaniel could not help but be lost in thought.

Her gestures, temperament, and childlike expressions were just like the Sheena he first met.
