Let's Start All Over Again, Shall We (Maggie and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 A Little Duckling Like Nathael

“Instead of relying on your cuteness, why don’t you focus on your studies and figure out how to make money?” Leo suggested, dressed in a clean white shirt that gave him a refined yet rebellious charm. This subdued some of his arrogance and aloofness, revealing a touch of scholarly elegance and gentleness.

In stark contrast to Nathael, who exuded a reserved and profound temperament, Nathael possessed a deep–seated aura of decisiveness and ruthlessness. His demeanor was restrained and aloof, even in silence, evoking a sense of intimidation.

Maggie had just started speaking when she received a call from Mia.

While chatting with Mia, Leo took the opportunity to categorize the assets transferred to Maggie and made annotations directly on the document.

Leo provided detailed instructions on which assets needed to be immediately sold, which could be held for a while to increase their value before selling, and which had the potential for appreciation. He also outlined the profitable assets and estimated their profit margins.

Mia called mainly to inquire about the progress of the Herschire Cultural Park incident, and Maggie took the opportunity to chat with her for a while.

Upon returning from the call, Maggie found that Leo had already categorized and annotated the contract. She couldn’t help but pause for a few seconds, feeling a slight welling of emotion in her eyes.

She didn’t express gratitude again because she knew that the word ‘thanks‘ carried little weight between

them.

“After taking some time, carefully review it. There are still some matters that require your personal consideration. Once you’ve made your decisions, hand them over to me, and I’ll take care of the rest,” Leo said after writing the last line, looking at Maggie.

“Alright.” Maggie nodded and handed Leo the jewelry she didn’t intend to keep. “Just sell these directly.”

She needed money. After dedicating herself to the Camerons for many years and maintaining her principles, she found herself in poverty.

So, at the moment, the most pressing matter was to accumulate a certain amount of assets.

“I roughly estimated that after selling off all the properties and jewelry, you should end up with around 10.5 to 12 million, Leo said gently.

Maggie nodded, understanding that this money might only be considered a small amount for a genuinely wealthy and prominent family.

However, the Camerons had malicious intentions towards her. Getting them to produce 10.5 to 12 million was equivalent to them sacrificing their own interests.

Moreover, this matter was far from over.

“How much will you ask for the blueprints sold to the Camerons?” Leo inquired.

Maggie thought for a moment and said with a cold expression, “1.5 million dollars.”

秘密82%.

Maggie pondered seriously. For projects like the Herschire Cultural Park, the design drawings are typically handled by a team, and the overall project design usually takes several months. A design fee of over three hundred thousand would be reasonable.

If a renowned designer were to take charge, the design fee would be even higher, reaching an estimated value of 600 to 750 thousand.

1.5 million dollars would probably be the bottom line that the Camerons could bear.

Maggie estimated that if the Herschire Cultural Park project were successful, the Camerons would likely profit around 4.5 million dollars. However, considering the materials and design fee expenses, the remaining amount for the Camerons would be insignificant.

However, regardless of the potential profit, Master Cameron and Ronald had broader goals. Their main objective this time was to establish connections with the government, allowing them to take on more government projects in the future and elevate the reputation of the Camerons.

“Leaving a profit margin of over 1.5 million dollars for Ronald is still acceptable. It seems you have a conscience,” Leo estimated, speaking in a gentle yet indifferent tone. The warmth in his eyes only became more genuine when he looked at Maggie.
