Despite the many questions swirling in her mind, Mavis said nothing.
Tommy stepped forward at the right moment, respectfully addressing Nathaniel.
"Mr. Nicholls."
"Alright, let's go back," Nathaniel replied.
He brushed past Mavis and boarded the helicopter.
Through the window, Nathaniel watched as Kristen waved goodbye before turning back toward the village.
Her expression quickly transformed from one of unwillingness to one of cold determination.
This departure was not the end. She believed Nathaniel would return for her.
…
Mavis observed Kristen's petite figure, feeling a mix of emotions.
She assured herself that everything was fine.
Once they were back home, these things would not be important...
Taking a few deep breaths, Mavis boarded the helicopter, trying to ignore the unease in her heart.
As the helicopter took off, its roaring engines filled the air, and two doctors surrounded Nathaniel, conducting thorough examinations.
To ensure Nathaniel was in good health, Tommy brought along all the medical equipment they could fit onto the helicopter.
They were determined to give Nathaniel a comprehensive check-up.
Once the examinations were done, Mavis approached and asked with concern, "Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?"
She offered Nathaniel a tray of fruits, waiting for him to pick his favorites.
Nathaniel shook his head.
He was not hungry and did not feel like eating anything.
Mavis gazed at his handsome face, puzzled.
Before coming to Gurenchti, he asked her out on a date.
Yet, after over two weeks, his demeanor had returned to the coldness of their early days of marriage.

The readers' comments on the novel: Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson)
The novel is too abusive it spoils the joy of reading it. I hate the punishment part between sheena and Eliot....
