Chapter 67 Your Retribution.
As Maggie’s words fell, everyone was stunned for a moment. Master Cameron said in a deep voice, “Tell
me more.”
Maggie fell silent for a moment, then said, “It’s just a feeling. Leo may seem easy to get along with, but in reality, he’s not. He may be polite and agreeable when dealing with you, but if you get on the wrong side of him, he can be very cruel.”
Upon hearing this, Master Cameron remained silent.
He had heard of Leo before. Indeed, as Maggie said, he was usually very easy to talk to. He was courteous. and would get along with anyone, regardless of their background or status.
But that wasn’t the complete truth about the kind of man he was.
There was a ruthless side to him that showed no mercy to people who crossed him. Because of this, although he was usually gentle, people often acted cautiously around him, especially as his status among the Calebs grew. Not many dared to truly provoke him.
“In addition to his enigmatic personality, the price tag of 1.5 million dollars is not a small sum. I have estimated that although there may be some profit left in the end, it won’t be much. Compared to the risks of working with Leo… I suggest we give up!”
Maggie said ‘give up‘ with a heavy heart.
As she expected, the words were too harsh. As soon as they were spoken, even the most cautious Ronald couldn’t sit still. He frowned and said. “Is there no other way? We’ve worked hard to get this project. If we give up now, we’ll become a laughingstock!”
Master Cameron nodded. “Your father is right. If we give up now, our competitors will have a field day. Even if the Herschire Cultural Park project is not profitable, we absolutely cannot give up!”

Maggie frowned and said, “Then let’s find another company. Leo is a dangerous man. I still have reservations about working with him.”
Maggie’s attitude made the Camerons fall silent as they were deep in thought.
Olivia frowned in silence. She was worried that if this matter wasn’t resolved, Sierra would still be blamed for it. But for now, there seemed to be no other way.
Joseph said, “I’ll contact some friends in the next few days to see if anyone can get hold of designs from another company.”
Master Cameron nodded. “That’s the only option, but we must keep it confidential. We can’t let anyone know that the Camerons are buying the designs!
“Also, Maggie, you need to keep in touch with Leo and figure out his thoughts, see what he really wants.”
“Okay.”
Chapter 67 Your Retribution
Her room was at the far end of the corridor. As she approached the door, she encountered Sierra, who was covered in bruises.
Master Cameron had probably overreacted due to his anger, leaving Sierra pale and bruised, looking a bit haggard.
“Are Lee drawings really unsuitable?” Sierra’s voice was cold as she spoke. Clearly, Olivia had carefully explained the pros and cons to her afterwards, making this pampered young lady finally see the situation clearly and understand the implications.
Knowing that she had ruined the big project for her family and that she had lost her father’s favor because
of this. Sierra naturally pan extra attention to the progress of the matter.
After all, since the incident, Master Cameron had directly deducted half a year’s pocket money from her and even grounded her for three months.
If this continued, she might go crazy.
If the Herschire Cultural Park project could be saved, then she would still have a chance, but if it couldn’t, she wouldn’t be able to escape this punishment.
Therefore, even though she clearly hated Maggie, Sierra couldn’t help but come over.
