Chapter 333 The Engagement Gift
When Master Pierce called. Ivan didn’t hesitate to agree.
Once just a modestly famous teacher, Ivan lacked the background and lasting fame. Sierra, captivated by his handsome looks, chose him to be her teacher.
It was through Sierra’s connections that Ivan got to know Master Pierce. The Pierces, known for their literary legacy, along with the Camerons‘ financial support, boosted Ivan’s reputation.
Understanding the principle of giving to receive, Ivan had discreetly assisted Sierra with numerous awards over the years.
Now, Master Pierce’s intentions were crystal clear.
After the call, Ivan pondered if there was a way to achieve multiple goals simultaneously.
After giving Sierra the manuscript, Maggie kept watch.
Soon, Lucas called her. “Maggie, she’s really going to use your music. How shameless.”
With tousled hair and a flushed face, Lucas vented his frustration while staring at the computer screen.
Maggie wasn’t surprised. “That’s expected. I was worried she wasn’t going to use it. How’s Cameron’s stock doing?”
“Not great. Joseph got ousted from several companies, and Ronald had to appoint replacements. But it’s obvious that other shareholders aren’t happy with the Camerons.”
Armed with this information, Maggie began plotting.
Apart from the family business, the Camerons held significant shares in various companies. She needed to oust the Camerons from other businesses and then curb their own enterprises.
The following day, Maggie spent half the day practicing piano and fushed through her designs in the afternoon.
As evening approached, Nathael called.
“Busy?” Nathael asked gently, as if he couldn’t stand not hearing her voice for a day.
Maggie stood up, walked to the window, and massaged her sore neck. “Not really. Just sketched all afternoon. My neck’s a bit still.”
“Have you eaten? Let’s drive around and look for something to eat.”
“Not yet. I’ll come
I’ll come to you.” Maggie, eager to see him too, warmly accepted his invitation.
She was aware of his busy schedule. He always had to work overtime if he spent time with her.
With the burden of the Harrises and constant scrutiny, she didn’t want to overburden him.

Maggie smiled at Nathael’s words and felt her mood lifted.
After hanging up, she got dressed and went downstairs to wait. Seeing the servants preparing food, she instructed, “Don’t prepare food for me. I won’t be dining at home.”
Olivia refrained from commenting further, although she was finding it hard to keep up the pretence.
Meanwhile, Ronald asked gently, “Are you meeting Mr. Harris?” Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Yeah, he’ll be picking me up soon.”
Just then, Sierra interjected, “Why not invite Mr. Harris over? Let’s have dinner together. Things are tough at home, Maggic. You should help Mom and Dad out by inviting Mr. Harris to our house.”
Ronald’s expression softened slightly, indicating rare agreement with Sierra’s suggestion.
Master Cameron joined in, saying, “She’s right. Since Mr. Harris is coming, it’s only polite to invite him in for a while.
Maggie didn’t immediately decline but responded, “Let me give him a call.”
A short while later, Maggie returned after making a call. Ignoring Sierra’s excitement, she turned to Ronald and said, “Dad, he’s agreed to come in for a bit to see you, Grandma, and Grandpa, but he won’t be staying for dinner.
Ronald’s face lit up with a smile, seemingly forgetting his grudge against Nathael for what happened to Joseph.
Upon hearing this, Sierra hurriedly went upstairs to change clothes and put on makeup.
Observing her, Maggie’s eyes flashed with sarcasm.
It was no wonder Sierra would go to such measures for Nathael in her past life. Even though they’d only met a few times, she was already fixated on him.
Nathael blamed her for drawing attention, but Maggie felt like he should look in the mirror.
Shifting her focus, Maggie pondered Ronald’s motives. He must expect to gain something from Nathael
while he was here.
Twenty minutes later, under the personal reception of Master Harris and Ronald, Nathael’s car arrived at the Cameron residence.
Sierra changed into a sundress and timidly followed Ronald. Despite her fear and apprehension towards Nathael, she couldn’t help but admire his assertiveness.
She felt that men should be firm and powerful like him; those who acted timidly lacked courage!
“Mr. Harris, please come in!”
Nathael nodded slightly, taking Maggie’s hand as they entered. “I had planned to come later, but I have a tight schedule with an upcoming trip abroad, so I decided to come today.”
“Mr. Harris, with your success, it’s natural to have a busy schedule. You can just treat our home as your home; you’re welcome anytime. Ronald smiled, gling past Nathael to Alex and the lawver behind him.

After Nathael and Maggie took their seats on the sofa, he spoke in a deep voice, “Maggie mentioned to me several times about the Camerons financial troubles. I assume you’ve assessed your assets as well. Mr. Cameron. The Camerons likely have nothing left to use as collateral.”
Master Cameron and Ronald’s group looked embarrassed at his words. “To be honest, Mr. Harris, you’re right.”
Nathael nodded, his expression serious, as if carefully considering his next words. “In that case, I’ve thought about it. If Maggie and I get engaged. I can offer 150 million as an engagement gift to the Camerons, hoping to ease your situation.”
As
Nathael spoke, not only Ronald and Master Cameron were shocked, but even Maggie was speechless.
She turned to look at Nathael, a hint of disbelief in her eyes.
Is he insane?
Giving money to the Camerons?
But in an instant, Maggie calmed down. No, he’s Nathael. He wouldn’t make a bad deal!
Upon hearing this, the Camerons smiled. Ronald hadn’t expected Nathael to suggest such a plan. 150 million might not be a huge sum, but for the current Camerons, it was significant!
Suppressing his joy, Ronald tentatively asked, “But… will Master Harris agree to the marriage?”
