Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 2147

Nathaniel gave her a piercing look and asked, "How exactly do you plan to guarantee that?"

"I'll double the compensation. If anything happens to the Nicholls Group because of Evan and me, I'll take full responsibility. I'll pay for all damages and clear everything up with the media. It's my mess, so I'll fix it."

Nathaniel laughed as if she had told a joke.

"With that little company you started in Vraeyce? Could you afford to cover the Nicholls Group's losses? Double the amount, no less?"

She could not.

The Nicholls Group was far too valuable, and any hit to its market would cost her an unimaginable sum.

She lowered her gaze and admitted, "That's exactly why I can't afford to mess up. If anything goes wrong, I'll be ruined, so I'll make sure to avoid any trouble. I won't let the Internet have a reason to comment on my private life."

Nathaniel seemed satisfied with her answer, his expression softening a bit.

"Alright. I'll give Evan back to you in three days."

"Why three days?"

Nathaniel replied, "Because you didn't fully agree to my term earlier."

Mavis could barely contain her frustration.

His "term" had been that she was not allowed to bring up divorce again.

It was an impossible condition, given her need to escape this marriage.

He clearly expected her to drop the matter forever, but she could no longer live under the weight of this relationship.

"Fine. Three days then."

Mavis clenched her firsts tightly as she glared at Nathaniel, resentment burning in her eyes.

Yet to him, her angry expression only made her look more adorable in her stubbornness.

With her pale skin and pretty face, she looked more like a feisty kitten than a threat.

Nathaniel chuckled and walked away.

Troy was ready to follow Nathaniel but was stopped by Mavis.

Before she could even speak, Troy frowned as if he already knew what she was about to ask.

"Mrs. Nicholls, please go easy on me. I know where Mr. Mueller is being kept, but I can't tell you. Mr. Nicholls would never forgive me."

Mavis fell silent.

"Just wait three days. I promise we'll take good care of Mr. Mueller. He'll be returned to you in perfect condition—safe, well-fed, and unharmed."

Mavis had no choice but to step aside, letting Troy and the other bodyguards pass.

Three days was not long.
