Let’s start all over again,shall we?

Chapter 218 What Are You Talking About? When Maggie heard this, she felt a wave of relief wash over her.

Just as she was about to speak, Ronald's call interrupted her.

Maggie kept her cool as she picked up the phone."Dad, I was just about to call you.

"What's happening there? Why aren't you wearing the jewelry we arranged for you? Do you understand why you're participating in this competition? Maggie, are you trying to go against us now?" Ronald's voice held back anger.

Even though Ronald wasn't yelling, Maggie could sense his frustration.

Maggie knew that Ronald's subdued level of anger was a sign of him almost losing it, especially for someone as strategic as him.

"Dad. I'm not..." Maggie pretended to choke up, as if she had a lot to say, but was unsure if she should speak up. "It's one thing if Sierra doesn't cooperate, but why are you going against us too?" Ronald's tone softened slightly, sounding like a caring yet disappointed elder.

"Dad, what's going on with Sierra?" Maggie acted as if she didn't know, deliberately asking.

At that moment, Ronald was close to exploding with anger. Olivia had just informed him about Sierra's sudden decision to change her jewelry.

Everything had been planned out, and all that was left was to execute the plan.

But then someone from the company called, saying that Maggie wasn't wearing Luster Corporation's jewelry. Meanwhile, Sierra didn't wear Luster Corporation's jewelry either; she actually wore jewelry from Adam Group! This nearly made Ronald lose his temper on the spot. Master Cameron even fainted right in front of him. "We'll talk about Sierra later tonight. For now, tell me: What's your side of the story? Are you afraid of being linked to Luster Corporation, which might affect your future? Or are you worried about tarnishing your reputation?" Ronald asked sternly, eager to hear Maggie's explanation.

Maggie had already prepared her explanation.

"Dad, it's not my call. When I was backstage, Nathael sent over a set of jewelry. So many people were around, and I didn't want to embarrass or upset him because it might involve the family." When Ronald heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

This was something he hadn't anticipated.

"Really?" Ronald furrowed his brow, unsure whether Maggie getting close to Nathael was good or bad. After all, for the past six months, the Camerons hadn't gained anything from Nathael, but they had 1/3 14:46 Fri, 24 May B Chapter 218 What Are You Talking About? "Of course, it's true. Dad, you must have seen the jewelry I wore; just ask someone who knows about it. Besides, there were so many people backstage. I wouldn't lie about something like this," Maggie explained cagerly, sounding somewhat agitated.

Ronald's mind was a mess, and his mood was sour. But ultimately, he didn't think the blshould fall entirely on Maggie.

He softened his tone and said, "So there's this hidden truth. But you should understand that we've put a lot. of effort into this competition, but you changed your mind at the last minute. You should have at least informed us." Upon hearing this, Maggie choked up. "Dad, I texted you at the time, and later, I heard Sierra say she was going to call Mom, so I asked her to inform von Didn't Mom tell you?" Ronald frowned and checked his phone. There were no messages, but there was a Whattext from Maggic. Seeing this, Ronald couldn't say anything else..

But then he thought again. Since Sierra didn't mention this matter at all, Ronald felt even more frustrated.

I'm sorry. Dad. I really didn't expect this to becsuch a big deal. I wanted to call you at the time, but the backstage was chaotic, and I was about to go on stage, so I didn't have time..." Maggie apologized softly, sounding particularly sincere.

"It's okay. It's not entirely your fault. If you didn't accept Mr. Harris's gifts, you'd be embarrassing him in front of everyone, which would only make him resent the Camerons and you." Ronald sighed, feeling that luck wasn't on his side.

Maggie's case was understandable, but Sierra was really frustrating! "We'll chat about this when I get htonight, Ronald said before ending the call, feeling even more frustrated. But for now, he had to muster up his determination and deal with this mess.

After hanging up, Maggie breathed a sigh of relief.

Turning to Nathael, she wrapped her arm around his neck and whispered softly, 'Mr. Harris, your nis really useful." If Nathael hadn't been there, she would have faced even more trouble.

But now, just mentioning his nwas enough to leave Ronald speechless and helpless.

After all, the Camerons were still relying on her to win Nathael over and gain sbenefits from him.

Nathael pulled her onto his lap, his large hand resting gently on her slim waist. Looking deeply into her eyes, he said, "You can use it whenever you need it in the future." Maggie's lip's curled into a smile, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “Really?" 2/3 24 May 201 Chapter 218 What Are You Talking About? The woman in front of him had a delicate face, glowing magnetic allure that drew people in irresistibly.

Kin, and captivating features. Her clear eyes had a Nathaelchuckled, leaning in to kiss her lips, his voice husky. "Of course, but there will be a price to pay.

His kiss was passionate and intense, and Maggie responded eagerly.

The atmosphere in the car becincreasingly heated.

Maggie could see the desire in Nathael's eyes, and she teased him mischievously by ligh fingers over his body. The warm sensation spread on his earlobe, making it tingle and driving him wild.

running her

Nathael flipped her over and pinned her beneath him. His eyes were filled with h desire, knowing she was intentionally teasing him. Staring at her intensely, he growled, "Do you wantto do it here?" Maggie hesitated for a moment, calmly pushing him away and retreating to the corner of the car seat to adjust her clothes.

"What are you talking about, Mr. Harris? You kissedfirst." Despite her flushed cheeks, Maggie looked at Nathael calmly, her face showing confusion and doubt.

Nathael was infuriated, sometimes feeling the urge to throttle her.

After staring at her for a few seconds, he chuckled. He rolled m down the car window and lit a cigarette, sneering. Just wait." There was a cold determination in his eyes and furrowed brow as if he wanted to eat her alive.

Maggie felt uneasy, awkwardly touching her nose and avoiding his gaze.

She knew that once she spoke, Nathael might react violently.

She blinked while looking out the window, still feeling the tingling m sensation on her lips and the warmth of his touch on her body. She had planned to tell him he would have his wish after the competition, but now, she was too scared to bring it up.
