Let's Start All Over Again, Shall We (Maggie and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 56

Chapter 56 Irrefutable

Silence fell over the room as Sierra’s face reappeared on the screen before she turned and left. After a long pause, the room regained its calm.

Maggie, her eyes red and filled with disbelief and hurt, looked at Sierra standing at the edge of the crowd. She whispered, “Why?”

Olivia’s heart raced. She wanted to say something but was unsure of how to respond to this undeniable evidence.

Foolish! Sierra had been utterly foolish!

“Sierra, you need to explain yourself!” Master Cameron’s furious voice echoed through the room. His eyes filled with anger as he turned to face Sierra, barely containing his rage.

Feeling panicked, Sierra blurted out without thinking, “It wasn’t me… I don’t know what’s going on! It really

wasn’t me!”

Maggie pursed her lips, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes. Such a defense was useless at a time like this. Sierra may have been ruthless and decisive, but her intellect was lacking. In the end, she was merely using the resources of the Camerons for her own benefit.

“Kneel!” Master Cameron shouted angrily.

Sierra, frightened, instinctively looked at Olivia and pleaded, “Mom… Mom…”

Olivia quickly stepped forward and said, “Dad, there might be a misunderstanding. Sierra, she…”

“Shut up! Indulging a child only spoils them. Look at the daughter you’ve raised! She’s been living too comfortably and now she has the nerve to do such a thing! Kneel! If you don’t, I’ll disown you from the family right now! You can forget about any protection from us!”

Master Cameron’s anger darkened his vision. He had considered many possibilities. He had thought it might be a plot by their family’s rivals, or a scheme by their enemies, or even that Maggie had become. suspicious and discovered the truth… However, he never expected it to be Sierra, this fool! He never expected it to be the pampered, ignorant daughter of the Camerons!

Olivia was harshly scolded and dared not plead any further. She could only pull Sierra and say, “Get on your knees and apologize to your grandfather.”

Sierra’s eyes welled up with tears. She was unwilling, but she could not give up her status in the family. She was not a naive, innocent lady untouched by the world. On the contrary, she had seen too many people around her who flattered and changed their attitudes on different occasions. Without money, she could not live the life she desired. She would be nothing.

After struggling for a moment, Sierra knelt in front of Master Cameron. She lowered her head and put on a tearful appearance. “I’m sorry, Grandpa… I know I was wrong. I was blinded by rage, so I didn’t think…

Upon hearing this, Master Cameron became even angrier. “Didn’t think what? Didn’t think you’d be caught, right?”

maneuvering, while only Sierra, due to her youth, enjoyed a peaceful life.

“Bring me my cane!” Master Cameron sneered, revealing his true cold and twisted face.

Upon hearing this, Olivia immediately knelt and sobbed, “Dad, please spare her this time. Sierra is still young and ignor. I will teach her, I will definitely teach her well in the future!”

“Is everyone deaf? I said bring me my cane, can’t anyone understand?” Master Cameron’s eyes bulged as he angrily shouted at the servants nearby.

Soon, someone hurriedly ran to the study and returned with Master Cameron’s solid wood cane. “Master.”

Master Cameron took the cane and struck Sierra’s back harshly.

Ahl

“Dad!”

Sierra’s heart–wrenching scream and Olivia’s exclamation rang out simultaneously. Olivia quickly knelt and tried to grab Master Cameron’s cane.

“Dad, she’s your granddaughter. You love her the most

Before Olivia could finish her plea, Master Cameron kicked her. “Step aside!”

Olivia stumbled and fell to the ground. Meanwhile, Master Cameron’s cane came down hard on Sierra’s back.

“Mom… Mom!”

Tears streamed down Sierra’s face from the pain. The cane felt like a solid iron rod, causing her bones to ache and burn.

“How could we raise such a fool! How dare you tear up the document!”
