Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 2263

Troy's mention of past events tugged at Mildred's heartstrings. However, Callum's custody remained a matter of principle.

"If you don't want to be punished, go find Mae and get that divorce agreement back," Mildred demanded. "You're a grown man now. Divorce is one thing, but giving up the child? Don't you care about the Nicholls family's reputation?"

"Madam Nicholls, he had no choice! He's willing to concede everything to win back Mrs. Nicholls' heart. That just proves he's a real man!" Troy argued, and his admiration for Nathaniel was evident.

Unfortunately, Troy's defense only fueled Mildred's anger further.

"Nate, either find a way to get that agreement back or face the consequences. Your choice," Mildred said sternly.

Nathaniel shook his head, signaling Troy to be quiet.

"I'll accept the punishment, Grandma. Please proceed."

As things got serious, Troy turned pale.

Mildred had never been this angry before!

Who could save Nathaniel?

Then it hit him—Mavis!

Troy backed away slowly.

Taking advantage of Mildred's diverted attention, he slipped out of the room and raced out of the Nicholls residence.

The usual twenty-minute drive took Troy only ten as he sped to the hospital.

Outside the operating room, he found Mavis still sitting on a bench, her face etched with worry.

"Mrs. Nicholls! It's terrible! Mr. Nicholls is about to be beaten!" Troy blurted out, trying to keep it brief.

Mavis did not even look up. "Don't joke around. Who would dare lay a hand on him?"

She could not believe it.

In all of Froania, Nathaniel was usually the one doing the bullying, not the other way around.

"It's Madam Nicholls! She found out that Mr. Nicholls gave you custody of Mr. Callum in the divorce agreement. She wants him to take it back from you, but he refuses. Madam Nicholls is furious and about to use family discipline!"
