Let's Start All Over Again, Shall We (Maggie and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 244

Chapter 244 Giving You My Life

After half an hour, Maggie stepped out of the bedroom, her cheeks flushed and a hint of irritation in her demeanour, steadfasily rebuffing Nathael’s attempt to embrace her.

Observing the flurry of activity in the wardrobe, with five or six salespeople and representatives from different brands busy organising the closet, Maggie paused momentarily, absorbing the scene.

Her eyes widened in disbelief.

Could Nathael have lost his senses?

How much had he purchased?

His previously roomy closet, which had only filled a fraction of the space, was now bursting with vibrant women’s apparel and dresses.

Even the cabinet that housed his brooches, watches, and cufflinks was now overflowing with jewellery.

Maggie turned to the man walking behind her, her amazement palpable but unspoken. Eventually, she couldn’t help but inquire, “Nathael, just how much do you earn?”

Approaching her, Nathael enveloped her delicate hand with his large one, his voice resonating deeply ast he responded, “I’ll give it to you tonight when we get back.”

Maggie looked puzzled.

Give me what? Will he give me money?

“Aren’t you afraid I’ll steal all your money?” Maggie’s words came out in a blur. She asked with a hint of indignation creeping into her tone.

Nathael gently twirled her delicate and pale fingers, their smooth, round tips imparting a cool sensation reminiscent of polished white gemstones.

Raising his gaze to meet hers, he uttered in a hushed, resonant tone, “As I’ve mentioned previously, if you desire my life, it’s yours.”

Maggie’s lips parted in astonishment, and her voice was momentarily silenced.

In his deep, mesmerising gaze, she saw a resolve and fervour that bewildered her, as if he thought surrendering all could bind them together.

If not, he would rather be broken into pieces, willing to forsake everything.

Nathael didn’t flinch or evadé her gaze. He allowed her to scrutinise him. His dark pupils were deep and steadfast.

armoured to the teeth, insisted on stripping away all defences and presenting their heart to you, bare and

vulnerable.

Maggie remained silent until they got into the car.

She turned her head to look out the window, her heart heavy with sorrow.

The more Nathael acted like this, the harder it was for her to bear. She dared not imagine what he might do if, six years later, she truly succumbed to the poison

Could their past repeat itself again?

Maggie’s thoughts were complex. Her heart was filled with both the warmth of unconditional love and the bitterness of being powerless. These conflicting emotions intertwined, forming a dense and poignant ache.

She wasn’t sure if her situation could be considered unattainable longing, but she couldn’t help but wonder how much pain Nathael must have felt in her past life.

Half an hour later, Maggie and Nathael stepped into a private club.
