Let's Start All Over Again, Shall We (Maggie and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 111

Chapter 111 I’m Sorry

Nathael considered himself rarely angered, but Maggie always seemed to pinpoint and provoke his emotions precisely, a few words breaking through his control and calm.

“It’s up to you,” Maggie said, looking straight at him with a light laugh, her smile carrying a hint of carelessness.

She knew she couldn’t keep asking him to trust her.

Maggie had already said those words before, and she couldn’t keep repeating them.

Nathael remained silent. He pushed her away, redoing the buttons she had undone, and then he left expressionless.

A bang‘ echoed as the door closed, leaving Maggie alone in the office.

She sat in Nathael’s chair, staring at the lunchbox in front of her. Her mood was far from good.

She had never really coaxed anyone, neither in her past life nor in this one.

Joseph was always adept at coaxing women. Though he always complained that she was dull and cold, it was undeniable that she had never tried to coax him.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have schemed so desperately for the Camerons to make him happy.

As for Nathael, she had never coaxed him either.

In the past, when she needed something from him, she was always half–hearted in her efforts, and he silently indulged her.

Later, after they married, it was Nathael who pampered her.

She was blind and disfigured, filled with resentment towards him. Her temper was really bad; she never once cared about his feelings or read his expression.

After all, she couldn’t see.

Inevitably, he always shows up happily, but his enthusiasm always met with a bucket of cold water. It was hard for him to be happy.

But no matter what it tried, it just couldn’t get it right. Finally, in frustration, it shouted to the duck in front, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry! Can you hear me? I can’t get aligned!”

After she finished, Maggie added a little sad face emoji behind it

Nathael stood in another office on the same floor, gazing out the floor–to–ceiling windows at the bustling view outside. He couldn’t resist the urge to light up a cigarette.

After listening to Alex’s report, he remained silent for a long while.

Finally, he asked in a low voice, “Has she left?”

“Yes, she’s gone,” Alex confirmed.

Nathael’s Adam’s apple moved, unable to tell if it was disappointment, regret, or perhaps something else he was hoping for. He asked, “Did she say anything?”

Alex racked his brains and then replied, “No. Nothing”

Nathael gave a self–deprecating laugh. His eyes darkened, and he stayed silent.

The more aware one is in this world, the more pain they feel, because knowing they’re not the chosen one makes it all the more unbearable.

After finishing the cigarette, Nathael turned back to his office.
