Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1881

The three of them immediately agreed and decided to visit the business department first.

The Nicholls Group occupied a massive high-rise building, and it would be exhausting if they were to tour it floor by floor.

Besides, Gabrielle and Mavis were in their high heels, and Mildred was already frail after an argument with Nathaniel that nearly triggered a heart attack yesterday. She would definitely not handle it well.

Gabrielle knew Mildred was still weak and could not afford to overexert herself. Moreover, she was also worried about how Mildred would react if they bumped into Kristen.

Gabrielle squeezed the emergency heart medication inside her pocket, keeping it close at hand.

The elevator took them straight to the business department.

Mildred nodded approvingly at the sight of the diligent employees working at their desks.

Someone noticed Mavis and started a discussion.

"When did Mavis get back? Is the overseas project done?"

"It should be. Actually, it should've been done a while ago. You should ask why she's back now and who are the ladies with her."

"I don't recognize them. Are they new clients for a project? They don't look like it."

An employee who had met them before stepped up and said, "Those aren't clients. That's Mr. Nicholls's grandmother and sister, Madam Mildred Nicholls and Ms. Gabrielle Nicholls."

Everyone gasped in surprise.

Their whispers soon reached Kristen, who had been discreetly texting Declan at her desk.

She immediately perked up.

Nathaniel's grandmother and sister?

She had planned to get up and greet them, but then she saw Mavis chatting and laughing with them.

They really looked like a family, more than ever.

From Mildred and Gabrielle's expressions, it was clear they liked Mavis.

"Yes? What can I do for you?"

Mildred gave her a once over, then sneered. "Are you new here?"

"Yes, Grandma. Would you like some water? We have coffee, or maybe…"

"Did I say you could call me Grandma?" Mildred interrupted harshly.

Kristen was stunned by her aggressiveness and stood frozen.

"It's work hours. Why are you not at your desk? Can't you get a drink when you grab some files? Do you think wasting work time like this is acceptable? Have you finished drafting the contracts? Closed any deals?"

Kristen felt cornered and could only mumble, "I just started in the business department yesterday, so I'm not familiar with everything yet."

Mildred snapped back, "If you're not familiar, then you should be learning. Do you think running back and forth for water will teach you how to do your job?"

Embarrassed, Kristen turned away and whispered, "Okay."
