Let's Start All Over Again, Shall We (Maggie and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28 Any Gift For Me?

“Next week, Nathacl said softly, then added, “Hold onto the watch for me for now.”

Upon hearing his response, Maggie fell silent.

In her previous life, Nathael had changed his schedule and rushed back from Ecroabar because of her invitation. He did that despite knowing that she was only using him.

Maggie felt her chest tighten at that thought.

Especially when she considered how long he had to work overtime to come back early, how many troubles he had encountered after changing his schedule, and what opportunities he might have missed.

Noticing Maggie’s prolonged silence, Nathael put down his pen, got up, and walked to the French window. He asked softly. “What’s wrong?”

Maggie snapped back to reality and said, “Nothing. I just miss you.”

“Why are you so good to me, Mr. Harris?” Maggie couldn’t help but ask. It seemed that in all her memories. related to Nathael, she had never been kind to him.

But… why… even when she disappointed him to the extreme, this man was still so good to her.

Nathael’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He looked out at the Ecroabar–style ancient buildings outside the window and remained silent for a long time.

Maggie probably didn’t expect an answer from him. She chuckled and continued, “Mr. Harris, I wish all the best in Ecroabar, and may you achieve great success.”

Nathael’s gaze softened at that. He grunted lightly and said, “Hmm.”

“I’ll take good care of your watch. See you next week.

“See you next week.”

After she made sure that Nathael wouldn’t come back early, Maggie relaxed. She reclined on the sofa and fiddled with Nathael’s expensive watch.

The silver–white dial, the navy blue surface, a diamond at the twelve o’clock position of the pointer, the back of the watch was beautiful, the gears were slowly rotating, and it had a mesmerizing charm. The design was understated and luxurious.

After ending the call, Nathael stood in front of the French window for a long time.

The business cooperation discussion was halfway through, but he suddenly started looking forward to going home.

After a while, Nathael called Alex in and instructed, in a deep voice, “Reinvestigate the Camerons. Focus your investigation on everything related to Maggie

“Also, reinvestigate Joseph.”

“Yes.”

After Alex left the office, Nathael’s phone rang again. He had received a text message.

Maggie had been playing on the sofa for a while, and she couldn’t help but send him another message: ‘Mr. Harris, I’ve been keeping your watch for so many days. Are you going to bring me a gift?”

Nathael looked at the message and couldn’t help but chuckle. His fingers landed on the message, and he typed a few words to reply.

“There’s compensation.”

Maggie looked at the short reply and recalled the compensation she mentioned the other night. She immediately fell back on the sofa, her face flushed, and dared not make any more trouble.

The next day, at five in the evening.

The Camerons‘ banquet was held at the famous Grand Stellar Hotel in Aquapolis. The overall decoration of the banquet hall presented a lively Ecroabar style.

The white hues, matched with a large number of light blue roses, gave the impression of being refreshing and cozy.
