Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1496

After being in the rain for hours, Mavis inevitably caught a fever.

Moreover, she had not eaten, and her body was frail.

The doctor administered an IV drip with nutrients and fever-reducing medication for quick effect.

…

Nathaniel had fled the room in a hurry.

To avoid anyone seeing him losing his self-control, he locked himself in the study to calm down.

The rain outside showed no sign of stopping, and the droplets formed streaks on the window glass, filling the study with a heavy atmosphere.

Nathaniel leaned against the window, a cigarette between his fingers, his expression troubled.

Every time he closed his eyes, he replayed the moment he had kissed Mavis on the street.

His heart pounded uncontrollably, and he could not calm down.

Why did he… kiss her?

He had never imagined doing something so impulsive.

However, his mind had gone blank then, and he just wanted to stop Mavis from talking.

Nathaniel used to believe that he would never have feelings for another woman after Sheena, but he felt a sudden, undeniable attraction to Mavis.

He had loved Sheena for over ten years without ever kissing her, and his first kiss was taken by Mavis.

Just like that…

Frustrated, Nathaniel stubbed out his cigarette, grabbed a bottle of whiskey from the shelf, and leaned against the window, drinking.

He tried to numb his nerves and block out his chaotic thoughts.

…

Exhausted, Mavis slept until the next morning, waking up to the smell of chicken soup.
