Let's Start All Over Again, Shall We (Maggie and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 219

Chapter 219 The Kept Man

Nathael decided to take Maggie home to change clothes before heading out for lunch..

Later in the day, Danielle informed them that they didn’t need to attend the ceremony to confirm their advancement to the second round of the competition, but they had to watch the live broadcast at home or review the replay beforehand.

With the second round still a week away, Maggic felt no rush.

At 2 PM, Nathael dropped Maggie off at the Camerons‘ residence.

Just as Maggie was bidding him farewell, she watched as Nathael instructed Alex to retrieve several costly gifts from the car’s trunk.

Confused, Maggie asked, “What’s all this for?”

Nathael replied, his voice deep and firm as he gripped her hand tightly. “It’s time to pay a visit to your

parents.

His gaze softened as it met hers.

Maggie was momentarily taken aback, touched by his gesture.

Pay a visit to my parents? Bullsh*t!

He’s just trying to make sure I’m not mistreated by the Camerons.

By his presence. Nathael aimed to deter any attempts by Ronald or Master Cameron to cause trouble for

her.

Worried about potential eavesdroppers, Maggie hugged his waist and whispered, “Now that you’re here, Ronald will surely try to gain something from you.”

She didn’t want him entangled in the Camerons‘ affairs..

Just as he protected her, she wanted to shield him.

Nathael ruffled her hair affectionately, admitting, I’m not the saint you think I am, Maggie.”

Maggie caught a whiff of the crisp cedar scent on him and murmured softly, “But in my heart, you are.”

Nathael’s eyes twinkled with delight at her words.

A few minutes later, Maggie stepped through the Camerons‘ gate.

Mary, seething with rage like a raging bull, hurled a hefty ashtray towards Maggie. With a burning gaze, she barked, “You troublemaker! How dare you show your face here! The Camerons took care of you all these years, but you turned out ot be a backstabber! Now you think you’re all grown up, and you can do whatever you want, huh?! Why didn’t you wear the necklace your mom gave you? What was that thing around your neck?”

Thankfully, Nathael acted swiftly and pulled her out of harm’s way.

Despite that, the ashtray crashed to the ground near Maggie’s feet, sending glass shards flying everywhere.

Fortunately, with Nathael shielding her, Maggie escaped unharmed. However, she noticed several glass pieces had landed on Nathael,

Concerned, she asked. “Are you alright? Did you get hurt?”

Nathael reassured her quietly. Tm fine.”

Suppressing her displeasure, Maggie faced Mary and addressed her tentatively. “Aunt Mary…”

“Don’t you dare call me Aunt Mary! I don’t have a useless niece like you! I wonder what great things you did in your past life to end up in the Camerons!” Mary snapped, her anger boiling over. But as she spoke, she caught sight of a man standing next to Maggie, causing her to pause in surprise.

She demanded, “Who’s this? Where did this kept man come from? You still have the audacity to bring someone home after the stunt you pulled?! Have you no shame?”

Mary scrutinized Nathael suspiciously.
