Let's Start All Over Again, Shall We (Maggie and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23 What If I Want To?

Maggie hesitated to confront Joseph outside the door, fearing Nathael’s anger.

Just look at his expression….

His face was so gloomy that it couldn’t get any darker!

“Hm… Maggie didn’t know how to start and felt extremely awkward. It was as if awkwardness had invaded her home, and she was the guest of honor.

Just when she and Nathael had started to get along a little better, Joseph, the troublemaker, wouldn’t stop.

“Maggie, I know you’re home! Open the door. Let’s talk!”

Joseph’s voice came again. Maggie almost couldn’t help but laugh.

Can you please be quiet for once?

Nathael sneered with a hint of self–mockery in his eyes. “It seems I’ve interrupted Ms. Adam’s date.”

Maggie didn’t know what to say.

He’s like a ticking time bomb!

His patience was as thin as a needle hole.

Maggic sighed and knew it wasn’t entirely Nathael’s fault. She had done too many wrong things, and what goes around comes around. She could only take it one step at a time.

“Nathael, can you…. him!”

Nathael was startled.

Maggie looked at him, started to speak seriously, paused, then continued, “Just ignore

She sighed when she saw he didn’t respond. Nathael would probably find even ignoring Joseph distasteful.

She walked to the door. Her eyes were hidden under her lowered eyelashes, and she said coldly, “Joseph, you should leave. I’ve made myself very clear.”

“Maggie, open the door first.” Joseph was patient.

He wasn’t usually a patient person. But because it was Maggie and he was in the wrong, he was willing to coax her a little longer.

“Maggie, I know you’re angry right now. But I only made a mistake that any man in the world would make. You have to understand. That’s just how society is. You won’t find another man who treats you like I do.”

Joseph started his brainwashing mode, and Maggie laughed scornfully, feeling sorry for her past self.

In fact, two years later in her previous life, she had discovered the relationship between Joseph and Vanessa. She even found out Joseph was a playboy and had ambiguous relationships with many women.

But even so, she never hated him. She was just heartbroken.

Later, she and Nathael became involved. Then, she was disfigured by Sierra. Naturally, Joseph wouldn’t have any feelings for a blind and unattractive woman.

Maggie couldn’t help but wonder, was it a mistake that all men would make?

What about Nathael?

Would he do the same?

He had been with her for years without making any advances. Would he pursue other women?

But Maggie denied it soon.

He wouldn’t.

With his status and position, if he wanted to, there would be plenty of women who would rather fight to get into his bed than stick with her, a pitiful woman.

Seeing that Maggie didn’t respond, Joseph thought she had been persuaded.

He immediately said. Tve ordered the latest necklace from Cartier for you. I’ll have someone send it to you tomorrow. I also bought a house in your name. You just need to sign.”

He didn’t have much patience and assumed once Maggie accepted the gifts, the matter would be settled. “Maggie, are you still in contact with Nathael?”
