Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1894

Mavis wanted nothing more than to be alone with her thoughts.

Unemployed and with no clear future that she could see, she needed to figure out her next steps.

Back when she was abroad, Sheena had advised her not to be so stubborn.

She finally understood that love could not be forced, and she decided to consider this evening her farewell.

However, Mavis did not want to say goodbye to Mildred or let her see how heartbroken she was.

She wanted to leave quietly.

As she was lost in her thoughts, her phone rang.

It was Nathaniel.

She answered the call, and for a moment, there was only silence on the other end.

She thought he might have dialed by mistake and was about to hang up when he suddenly spoke.

"You're back home?" His voice was steady but distant.

"Yes," Mavis replied softly.

"What are your plans now?"

She was honest with him. "I don't have any plans."

"Did Grandma ask you why you came back so suddenly? What did you tell her?"

Mavis could not help but laugh at herself.

So, that was the reason for his call.

Yes, after everything that had happened, she had expected Nathaniel to offer her some words of comfort, maybe say that he still believed in her, even though circumstances had forced his hand.

"I know what to say. I won't let Grandma worry about us."

Nathaniel seemed to breathe a sigh of relief on the other end of the line.

After a pause, Mavis asked, "Is there anything else, or can I hang up?"

Nathaniel hesitated for a moment. "About what happened, I'll make sure you get the compensation you deserve. You…"

He trailed off, unable to finish his sentence.

Mavis thought he was talking about the divorce settlement.

They got together over a mutual decision, and there was no need to quibble over details when it was time to separate.

His frustration deepened, and he rubbed his forehead with one hand.

"Has the board quieted down?"

"No one's saying anything anymore."

Nathaniel could not help but let out a bitter laugh.

He had known there was a mole in the company for some time but had kept it quiet to avoid tipping them off, investigating in secret.

However, the board had somehow caught wind of it and launched their own investigation, pinning everything on Mavis before he could stop them.

At the shareholders' meeting, everyone seemed to have heard something.

They were all adamant that Mavis was to blame and demanded strict action.

Nathaniel had no choice but to let Mavis resign temporarily to calm things down.

After nearly a year together, even though they had argued a lot in the past six months, he knew Mavis's character.

She could not possibly be the one betraying the company.

There were still a lot of unanswered questions, and he needed to get to the bottom of them.
