Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1893

Mavis was instantly disheartened when she heard those words.

She looked around, suddenly feeling detached and disoriented.

This was the company and husband she had always trusted.

It had all been a lie.

She stared up at the light above her, tempted to slam her head into it, to shatter into a million pieces and escape this unbearable feeling of betrayal from Nathaniel.

However, she could not afford to be reckless. She had to think about her baby.

A few minutes later, Tommy walked in with the evidence of the investigation.

The surveillance footage showed that Mavis had been staying late at work for the past few days.

As Nathaniel's assistant, she had been alone in his office with the new project files.

Plus, she had admitted to visiting the cafe where she had seen the competitor's representative.

All the evidence pointed to her.

Nathaniel read through the documents in silence, then slammed them down on the table, trying to control his anger.

The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

After a long pause, Nathaniel spoke, his voice controlled but stern.

"Mavis, since you've been a long-time employee, I won't press any charges. Just go to HR and process your resignation."

With that, he stood up and walked out of the room.

The others followed, leaving Mavis and Kristen alone.

Kristen walked over, looking at Mavis with the smugness of a winner.

She flashed a wicked smile and taunted Mavis, "Go ahead and cry if you want to. It's over. I won."

Mavis chuckled. "Yes, you won. I'm just the fool who fell for it."

"You're so weak. I've faced many opponents, but none as foolish as you. You refused to back down, even when it was clear you were fighting a losing battle."

Kristen's sweet facade was gone, and her words were cruel.

It was as if she had turned into a different person.

"It's nothing."

Mavis forced a faint smile, taking Mildred's hand gently. "I'm just not feeling well, so I thought I'd come home and rest for a while. Grandma, don't worry about me. What's for dinner tonight?"

Gabrielle jumped in.

"Mae, Grandma knows you've been feeling down lately. She wanted to cheer you up, so she's cooking a meal for you herself. It's been long since she has done that for anyone."

Mavis was a little surprised.

She was about to say it was unnecessary, but seeing Mildred's happy expression, she could not bring herself to spoil the moment.

"Thank you, Grandma. I'd love to help you with the cooking."

Mildred smiled warmly. "There's no need for that. I used to do this all the time, and now I have Gabrielle to help me. You're not feeling well, so you should rest. I'll call you when dinner is ready."

Mavis was deeply touched.

She wanted to say more, but there was nothing else she could offer in return.

Before she could say anything, Gabrielle gently guided her upstairs to her room.
