Seeing Mavis's silence, Nathaniel felt a bit awkward and rubbed his nose.
"Don't worry, it's just dinner. It won't count as you skipping work. Are you coming?"
It had been a long time since she heard him speak so gently, and Mavis felt her heart soften.
After all, their contract marriage was not over yet, and they still had to live together.
It would not do to keep up this tension forever…
Mavis glanced at him and finally agreed.
As they took Nathaniel's private elevator, they quickly became the focus of the entire company again.
Tommy was relieved to see Nathaniel and Mavis leaving together.
He knew that Nathaniel's mood was clearly influenced by Mavis, and if she was unhappy, everyone else suffered.
As Nathaniel and Mavis stepped outside the building, Nathaniel suddenly sneezed.
Mavis hesitated for a moment before asking, "Did you catch a cold?"
However, she immediately regretted asking him that.
When others pranked her, Nathaniel walked past without a word of concern.
Besides the daily mocking, he never said anything nice to her.
She should not be so quick to soften up just because he showed a little kindness.
Mavis clutched her bag tightly, obviously annoyed.
Then, the weight on her shoulder suddenly lightened.
Nathaniel had taken her bag and was holding it for her.
Mavis's eyes widened in surprise.
She could not help but think there was something wrong with Nathaniel.
First, he helped with her bag, and then he even opened the passenger door for her and buckled her seatbelt.
Nathaniel's unexpected gestures left her stunned.

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....
