Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1952

Mavis was in no mood for him.

She gently pushed his hand away and carefully rested her hand on her belly.

"Please be respectful, Mr. Nicholls. You might hurt my baby."

Nathaniel finally noticed her stomach.

His eyes narrowed as he stood there, frozen.

It had been over five months since she left him.

Was the baby conceived before she left, or had she found a new man after leaving?

Mavis was quite thin, suffering from severe morning sickness and often unable to keep food down.

Hence, her belly seemed smaller than it should be for her stage of pregnancy.

Nathaniel silently recalled their drunken night together, unsure of what to say.

The tension in the kitchen was uncomfortable.

Ella burst in, breaking the awkward silence between them.

She glanced at Mavis, whose face looked pale, and then at Nathaniel, whose expression was complex.

Ella seemed to understand what was happening and asked, "Do you two know each other?"

Mavis replied firmly, "No."

Nathaniel said, "Yes."

Their responses were almost simultaneous but contradictory.

Even Ella, who was usually slow to catch on, could tell something fishy was going on between them.

It was clear there was a complicated history between these two.

Since they were giving conflicting answers, Ella decided not to get involved further.

She simply nodded in understanding and went back to her tasks.

Mavis tried to ignore Nathaniel and went about her business. However, Nathaniel followed her closely, seeming determined not to let her out of his sight.

Mavis was annoyed and spun around to face him.

"Mr. Nicholls, how long will you keep this up?"

Nathaniel remained silent, his face stern.
