Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 2226

Mavis almost forgot her original purpose for coming, nearly succumbing to Nathaniel's teasing. With her last shred of reason, she pushed his face away, preventing him from any more intimate gestures like nibbling her ear.

"This is a conference room, Mr. Nicholls. Please show some restraint."

Nathaniel chuckled softly, his long lashes hiding a hint of hurt in his eyes.

"After seeing my body, you seemed so repulsed by my touch. Do I disgust you?"

He spoke as if he were the victim, with a touch of feigned hurt in his voice.

Mavis stared at him, stunned for a moment. Somehow, she sensed a hint of bitterness in his tone as if accusing her of being heartless. When she saw the vulnerable expression on his usually proud face, she felt surreal.

Without thinking, she replied, "No, it's not like that."

The next instant, Nathanie lifted her off his lap and placed her on the conference table, leaning in close. Then, he stared at her soft lips, inching closer.

Mavis noticed his intention and tried to cover her mouth, but Nathaniel pinned her wrists to the table. Once again, she found herself powerless against his strength.

Their lips met, and the atmosphere heated up.

Just as the kiss was about to deepen, a knock on the conference room door interrupted them.

Tommy entered, saying, "Mr. Nicholls, have you finished signing the contract with Mrs. Nicholls? Do you need me to escort Mrs. Nicholls… Oh!"

Seeing the intimate scene before him, Tommy quickly turned away, embarrassed.

"I'm sorry! I didn't realize you and Mrs. Nicholls were… um, please continue."

"Wait," Nathaniel called out.

He slowly stood up, releasing Mavis and casually adjusting his collar.
