Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1985

"The doctor said you should get more sunlight. It's good for your health."

Mavis was annoyed. "The UV rays are too strong. It's not good for the baby."

Besides, the sunlight was so bright that it was uncomfortable.

Eventually, Nathaniel set down the soup and reluctantly helped her shut the curtains. After doing so, he returned to the bed, picking up the bowl again and blowing on the soup to cool it.

For a moment, Nathaniel seemed like a perfect husband, taking care of her with such attention to detail that Mavis was dazed.

However, she quickly noticed that his face betrayed no particular emotion. Although his actions were gentle, his eyes lacked warmth, and he appeared to be carrying out duty instead.

This growing realization made her uneasy, and she turned her face away, refusing to look at him.

"Here, have some breakfast. Be careful, it's hot."

He held the spoon with soup to her mouth, but she kept her lips tightly closed and turned her head away.

"You don't need to go through this trouble. I can eat it myself."

Nathaniel paused, his eyes flashing with a momentary coldness before he suppressed it.

He replied patiently, "I'm your husband, and you can ask me to do these things. There's no need for you to use a requesting tone or to feel inconvenienced."

"But I don't want to eat right now."

Nathaniel withdrew the spoon and set the bowl down.

"Fine. Let me know when you're ready to eat, and I'll heat it up for you."

Mavis secretly scoffed.

While he seemed patient, she knew it was not much.

"Nathaniel, is it a matter of pride? Are you pretending to be nice to me to avoid others saying you mistreat your wife? Aren't you tired of living a lie and wearing a mask?"

Nathaniel furrowed his brow and met her gaze in silence.

Mavis met his gaze firmly. "I've done nothing wrong to you. Perhaps my biggest mistake was loving you in the first place."

Nathaniel scoffed, his gaze drifting to her belly.

"What about the origins of this child? Do you not feel any guilt?"

Her face paled.

The lies she had told before were being used against her by Nathaniel, leaving her with no defense.

Seeing her discomfort, Nathaniel's expression grew even more disdainful.

"Have you ever mentioned the true origins of this child to Nana and Elliot? They all think this illegitimate child is mine, yet I can't get myself to tell them the truth. Don't you feel any guilt toward me?"

Mavis clutched the blanket with both hands, biting her lip.

"Stop calling him illegitimate. He's my baby."
