Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 2231

"It's fine. Grandma's probably asleep, and I don't want to disturb her. Besides, Callum has tutoring tomorrow. You should get some rest. Troy can just drive me back to Ascend Apartment," Mavis replied.

She had not left the car and was about to roll up the window when Nathaniel freed a hand to hold the window gap.

"Stay a bit longer. I need to talk to you."

She nodded, watching Nathaniel carry the sleeping Callum into the garden, disappearing into the night.

Ten minutes later, Nathaniel returned and told Troy to get out of the driver's seat. Then, Nathaniel got in the back seat.

Mavis, who had been dozing off while waiting, caught a whiff of strong tobacco.

"You managed to catch a smoke in such a short time?"

"Yeah," he replied. "Don't worry, it was after I settled Callum."

Mavis did not say anything more. Instead, she opened the window and deliberately sat further away.

However, this action seemed to provoke Nathaniel. He frowned deeply and asked coldly, "Are you that disgusted with me, while Evan is worth your concern?"

Mavis was puzzled by his words. "What?"

The car interior was cramped, and their eyes met.

The streetlight outside shone in, illuminating Nathaniel's sharp and handsome features. His dark blue eyes seemed to be suppressing some emotion.

"Tell me honestly, do you like Evan?"

Mavis laughed. "What are you on about now? I've told you before, we're just good friends."

"Would good friends hug each other so intimately, meet each other's families, or worry so much about each other's safety when apart?" He uttered through gritted teeth, his voice low and grating.

Mavis felt a chill in her heart and found it even more amusing.
