Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1634

Mavis did not let her guard down just because they had similar features.

Instead, she smiled politely and declined, "Thank you, but I'm waiting for someone."

With that, Mavis stepped away, distancing herself from the man.

Everyone at the event had brought a partner along, and she did not want to get herself into any trouble.

Moreover, this man seemed like a playboy.

However, the man did not leave, following her and continuing the conversation.

"I wonder who's the lucky guy you're with tonight. It's a shame that he let a beautiful lady like you wait alone. Waiting can be so boring. How about having a drink together and toast to a new friendship?"

"Waiter!"

He snapped his fingers, and a server promptly appeared with a tray of drinks.

The man handed her a glass.

The man's insistence made it hard for Mavis to refuse.

She reluctantly clinked her glass with his and took a small sip.

Then, she placed her glass on a nearby table and said, "I have something to attend to. Please excuse me."

As Mavis turned to leave, the man grabbed her wrist, pulling her back toward him.

Shocked, she glanced at Nathaniel, who was deep in conversation with his business partners.

In a low, firm voice, she warned, "Sir, let go of me, or I'll scream for help."

The man tightened his grip and pulled her closer.

"Why waste such a beautiful evening waiting around? We crossed paths here by chance. It must be fate. Why not make the most of it?"

His eyes roamed over her, making Mavis extremely uncomfortable.

"Please mind your manners!"

She looked desperately in Nathaniel's direction, hoping he would notice her distress.

However, he was surrounded by people, blocking him from noticing her situation.

He placed his hand on her waist and put her other hand on his shoulder, moving gently to the rhythm.

"Don't be afraid. I'm here with you."

The soft light of the party cast a gentle glow on his face, his blue eyes filled with warmth and patience.

For a moment, Mavis felt like she was looking at an angel.

His warm hand slowly dispelled the fear in her heart.

Knowing she did not know how to dance, Nathaniel patiently guided her.

His voice softly instructed her by her ear, making Mavis feel like she was in a dream.

Enchanted by the moment, she looked up and unexpectedly met his gaze.

Their eyes locked, and Mavis's heart skipped a beat.

He was being… so gentle!
