Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1896

Mavis was not foolish.

Emily's attempts to kick her while she was down did not bother her.

It would be the height of stupidity to start a fight over a few words.

Not wanting to waste her time, Mavis simply said, "I need to see Mr. Nicholls."

Emily was taken aback for a moment before she burst into laughter.

"Mavis, do you really think you're still Mr. Nicholls's favorite? You think you can just see him whenever you want?"

Mavis remained calm and coldly replied, "Isn't it your job as the receptionist to relay messages? You haven't even checked with Mr. Nicholls, and you're stopping me here. What do you think you're doing?"

Mavis could have just gone straight to Nathaniel.

Considering their relationship, she just needed to inform him beforehand.

However, she had tried calling him on the way here, and he did not answer.

Her stubborn nature made her determined to prove her innocence publicly.

Emily could not argue with that, so she called upstairs.

After glancing at Nathaniel's schedule and seeing a free slot, Tommy went to ask Nathaniel.

"Mr. Nicholls, Mrs. Nicholls is downstairs and wants to see you."

Nathaniel was a bit surprised but quickly masked it with his usual cold demeanor.

"Do you think it's appropriate for me to see her now?"

Given the recent events, it seemed inappropriate.

Tommy understood and relayed to Emily, "Mr. Nicholls is unavailable right now."

After a brief pause, he added on his own accord, "Tell her not to go far. Mr. Nicholls is just feeling a bit guilty and can't face her at the moment. He might change his mind soon."

Emily eagerly agreed, "Got it."

Mavis was stubborn.

She pursed her lips and replied sharply, "I can leave on my own. No need for your help."

She walked out of the Nicholls Group building with her head held high, refusing to be escorted out.

Determined to clear her name, Mavis resolved herself to meet with Nathaniel.

He needed to know she was innocent.

Her competence could be questioned, but her integrity could not.

On her way back, Mildred called.

Mavis felt her tension ease a bit, a slight smile forming as she answered quickly.

Mildred's voice on the other end sounded worried. "Mae, where did you go without telling anyone? When are you coming back? I've already made dinner. If you're late, it'll get cold."
