Chapter 259 Shifting the Blame

Nathael’s declaration sent shockwaves through the crowd, leaving Ronald momentarily stunned.

But soon, he snapped out of his trance. Joy spread across Ronald’s face, only to slowly fade, replaced by a solemn expression.

The attention of others shifted to Nathael and Maggie as the realization settled in like a tidal wave.

This man was the heir to the Harrises!

For years, there had been virtually no gossip about his personal life, let alone any mention of a woman by

his side.

What were they witnessing today?

In their lifetimes, they had never imagined they would see Nathacl publicly declare his affection. It seemed so unbelievable that some doubted their own ears.

While some pondered the immediate implications, others considered the long–term consequences.

Maggie’s years of devoted service to the Camerons were well known, despite her adoption from an orphanage.

“Nathael. Beth’s voice trembled as she spoke. She tried to force a smile, but her unwillingness to accept her fate was evident. “Do you truly love her?”

Nathael, clearly impatient, had no intention of repeating himself. Beth cocked her head and sneered, “I don’t believe it.”

Nathael had no interest in prolonging the conversation. He glanced down at the distressed waiter before him and asked coldly. “Since you accuse Beth, do you have evidence?”

The crowd’s attention snapped back to the present. Ben was momentarily puzzled, but after a few seconds, he quickly regained his composure and hurriedly replied. “I have a recording of her driver making the deal and the convenience store’s surveillance footage!”

He had been working at the convenience store when Beth’s driver, a burly man in black, approached him with an offer he couldn’t refuse.

After hearing the proposition, he instinctively glanced outside.

Beth sat in the back seat of the car; the window rolled down slightly and revealed a beautiful profile.

Once she saw that he knew who his employer was, she rolled up the window, which seemed detached and elegant.
