Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 2177

The constant criticism was grinding Mavis' gears, and she glared at Nathaniel.

However, Nathaniel simply avoided her gaze, his demeanor icy.

Both seemed to be upset, though neither knew exactly why.

Mavis handed Nathaniel the perfectly peeled orange and grabbed a chair.

Then, she sat far away, burying herself in a random book.

Her reluctance to be there was obvious and she would rather read than attempt to have a conversation with Nathaniel.

The room's atmosphere grew tense.

Nathaniel ate the orange silently, his mood still sour despite the fruit's sweetness.

However, Troy felt suffocated by the tension and quickly made an excuse to leave.

He left an iPad and laptop for Nathaniel to work on if he was bored.

The stalemate lasted all afternoon, and none of them were willing to compromise.

At 8 p.m., the driver finally brought Callum over.

The little boy bounced into the room, instantly lightening the mood.

Mavis' eyes lit up as she hugged and kissed her son, playfully squishing his cheeks.

Callum pouted and whined, "Mommy, if you squeeze me anymore, I'll never lose these chubby cheeks."

Mavis laughed. "But you're just so adorable."

Without Mildred present, Nathaniel did not join their chat, allowing the mother and son to enjoy their moment.

Mavis showered Callum with affection for a while before leaving to discuss evening medication with the nurse.
