Let's Start All Over Again, Shall We (Maggie and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 107

Chapter 107 Are You Mad at Me?

“I do. Mrs. Adam, you’ve got it twisted. I’m not into Ericko like that,” Maggie quickly set the record straight thinking back to what Nathael had said last night.

She wondered why he did push her a little harder because she would have said yes if he did.

Yet, deep down, she knew it would always be him.

Despite her own second–guessing, Maggie could not imagine being with anyone else.

Hearing this, Fiona felt a bit let down and went straight for the jugular with her next question, catching Maggie off guard, “So, when are you going to break it off?”

Phillip cleared his throat loudly.

Phillip could not stand to watch anymore and had to say something.

Ericko, feeling a headache coming on, was shocked to hear Maggie had a boyfriend, especially since Nathael did not strike him as the type to charm someone like her.

Fiona, though, seemed to really hit it off with Maggie, diving into deep conversation. Maggie, enjoying the vibe, stayed close to her mom, keeping her company and making sure she was having a good time.

Ericko watched the scene unfold with gentle eyes.

Remembering Nathael mentioning her stomach troubles and skipping breakfast, he quickly arranged for a breakfast delivery.

Initially feeling out of place, Maggie was persuaded by Fiona and Ericko to join them for the meal.

Time seemed to speed up as they enjoyed their morning.

When Fiona appeared slightly tired, Maggie decided it was time to say goodbye.

Grasping her hand, Fiona offered a heartfelt invitation, “Drop by my place sometime or come see me at work. Our home might not be filled with much, but our jewelry

ollection is vast. Pick anything you fancy.”

Maggie listened to Fiona’s generous words, yet her smile faltered.

Her family had always been kind–hearted.

Yet, in her previous life, her actions brought them undeserved distress, preventing them from finding happiness. Why did the Camerons seem to thrive?

No, Nathael had avenged her, ensuring their downfall was even more tragic.

Had Nathael not been concerned for her, he would have never left their side until her final moments. Still, she puzzled over why Joseph, after enduring so much, abruptly chose to kidnap her.

As Ericko accompanied her out of the hospital room, the two walked through the hospital gardens.

“Not yet, but it seems like it’ll happen soon,” Maggie admitted, her eyes drifting downwards.

Watching Maggie’s reaction, Ericko gently ruffled her hair, offering a gentle caution, “Take your time with this, he might not appreciate you rushing.”

Ericko understood Nathael was not that kind of person, yet he could not ignore the fact that Maggie was his sister.

Had Nathael’s feelings been directed elsewhere, perhaps his counsel would differ. However, his affection for his sister warranted some concessions.

“He won’t do that to me,” Maggie quickly came to Nathael’s defense.

She was certain of Nathael’s regard for her both in this lifetime and the previous one.

Ericko offered a smile, choosing to keep his thoughts to himself, “Alright, I’ll take your word for it.”

At his words, Maggie was struck by a sense of regret, recalling her past endeavors for Joseph. She quietly confessed, “Truth is, my judgment has been pretty awful.“.

The conversation then naturally veered towards their professional lives.

“I just got a call from the Camerons asking me to come back. They’re gearing up to debut the new jewelry line next month.”

Maggie took a moment before adding. “They’re really pushing the timeline, and Vanessa moving in with the Adams is a big reason why the jewelry company is getting off the ground so quickly.”
