Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1871

Kristen pretended to think for a long time, looking adorably innocent.

She asked Nathaniel, "Nate, what's the best position for me to really challenge myself?"

As she spoke, she leaned in closer, her eyes sparkling with mischief.

It was hard to tell if Nathaniel liked her as he always seemed a bit aloof.

Yet, he always showered her with attention, giving in to her requests.

Hence, she wanted to test his reaction to confirm his feelings for her.

Nathaniel glanced at her, remaining silent for a long while.

He neither accepted nor rejected her approach, allowing her to get close.

Kristen was delighted.

Finally, Nathaniel said, "The business department is the most challenging. You'd handle many projects, but I worry you might find it too tough. You'd also have to interact mostly with top executives…"

His implication was clear.

However, Kristen appeared calm, and even happy.

She wanted to be in the business department. It was the heart of the company.

"Nate, are you worried I'll run off with a rich man? Don't worry. You're wealthy, and I still keep my distance. Besides, how do you know I can't handle the challenge?"

Nathaniel replied, "If you find a man you like, I'll support you. Marrying well wouldn't be a bad thing."

Kristen's joy was instantly dampened by Nathaniel's words.

He seemed to agree with everything she wanted but always kept his distance because he was married.

She knew she had to get him to end his marriage with Mavis soon.

"If you really want to, I'll arrange for you to join the business department. You said you wanted to learn some real skills. How about having the department head mentor you personally?"

Nathaniel's few words had already charted Kristen's course.

Even though having someone constantly watching over her might hinder her plans, it was best not to refuse to prevent suspicion.

"That's fine. You handle it but don't make it too obvious that I'm being given special treatment. I don't want people to resent me."

"Who would dare?" Nathaniel's eyes flashed with a sharp glint as he glanced back.

Kristen's gaze remained soft.

Their eyes met again. This time, Kristen could not hold back and burst into laughter.

Nathaniel sighed and mumbled, "You're so stubborn, insisting on facing those challenges. I don't know what to do with you."

"You're the best, Nate. No matter what I ask, you always agree. If Grandma knew how well you treat me, she'd be so happy… Nate, I kind of miss them."
