Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 2241

Nonetheless, Nathaniel was merely grumbling about it. He knew that his past wrongs against Mavis had led to this treatment, and he was reaping what he had sown.

Besides, there was a more pressing matter at hand. Nathaniel sat up, his expression serious as he began to analyze the situation.

"In this case, Evan is both the most unfortunate victim and the biggest beneficiary. Is it possible he bribed someone to fake his condition?"

Troy shook his head without hesitation. "Evan barely knows anyone in Froania except Mavis and Dylan. He couldn't possibly have any connections. Also, his injuries couldn't be faked."

Troy winced as he recalled Evan's condition and added, "His injuries are truly severe. No one would go to such extreme lengths to frame you. He's practically ruined his life."

Nathaniel felt a chill in his heart. "Who knows who he might have offended to be treated like this."

Troy countered, "Mr. Mueller has only been in Froania for about a month. He's always been around Mrs. Nicholls, living in the apartment you bought for her and working remotely from there. He couldn't possibly have made enemies. The biggest enemy… would be you. You're rivals who dislike each other, and you've even hit him before."

Nathaniel fell silent.

No matter how he looked at it, he remained the prime suspect. After all, he was the only one with previous conflicts with Evan, and the National Investigation Bureau would likely question him again.

He rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache coming on.

Every day seemed to bring new troubles.

…

The next morning, in a ward downstairs, Mavis had spent the night on a small cot for visitors.

Nurses came in throughout the night to change Evan's IV, leaving Mavis with barely an hour of sleep just before dawn.

"But gratitude is all I can offer. You know that I'm a woman with a child and a family. There can't be anything between us."

Evan was baffled, "Aren't you going to divorce him soon? Today, he's turned me into a disabled person. Tomorrow, it could be you."

Mavis put the glass back on the bedside table and sat on the edge of the bed. After some hesitation, she decided to voice her doubts.

"Actually… I don't think Nathaniel is behind your injury this time. There might be some misunderstanding."

Evan's eyes widened in disbelief. "Mae, you're being naive! How can you believe his lies? You know how cunning and ruthless he is. You've seen it firsthand. On the day—"

Evan started coughing from his agitation, but he was desperate to expose Nathaniel's true nature to Mavis.
