Let’s start all over again,shall we?

Chapter 244 Giving You My Life After half an hour, Maggie stepped out of the bedroom, her cheeks flushed and a hint of irritation in her demeanour, steadfasily rebuffing Nathael's attempt to embrace her.

Observing the flurry of activity in the wardrobe, with five or six salespeople and representatives from different brands busy organising the closet, Maggie paused momentarily, absorbing the scene.

Her eyes widened in disbelief.

Could Nathael have lost his senses? How much had he purchased? His previously roomy closet, which had only filled a fraction of the space, was now bursting with vibrant women's apparel and dresses.

Even the cabthat housed his brooches, watches, and cufflinks was now overflowing with jewellery.

Maggie turned to the man walking behind her, her amazement palpable but unspoken. Eventually, she couldn't help but inquire, "Nathael, just how much do you earn?" Approaching her, Nathael enveloped her delicate hand with his large one, his voice resonating deeply ast he responded, "I'll give it to you tonight when we get back." Maggie looked puzzled.

Givewhat? Will he givemoney? "Aren't you afraid I'll steal all your money?" Maggie's words cout in a blur. She asked with a hint of indignation creeping into her tone.

Are you so in love that you've lost your senses? How could you let yourself be so easily misled? I've misled and taken advan of you so many times, and yet you're ready to hand over all your wealth! Nathael gently twirled her delicate and pale fingers, their smooth, round tips imparting a cool sensation reminiscent of polished white gemstones.

Raising his gaze to meet hers, he uttered in a hushed, resonant tone, “As I've mentioned previously, if you desire my life, it's yours." Maggie's lips parted in astonishment, and her voice was momentarily silenced.

In his deep, mesmerising gaze, she saw a resolve and fervour that bewildered her, as if he thought surrendering all could bind them together.

If not, he would rather be broken into pieces, willing to forsake everything.

Nathael didn't flinch or evadé her gaze. He allowed her to scrutinise him. His dark pupils were deep and steadfast.

Maggie remained silent until they got into the car.

She turned her head to look out the window, her heart heavy with sorrow.

The more Nathael acted like this, the harder it was for her to bear. She dared not imagine what he might do if, six years later, she truly succumbed to the poison Could their past repeat itself again? Maggie's thoughts were complex. Her heart was filled with both the warmth of unconditional love and the bitterness of being powerless. These conflicting emotions intertwined, forming a dense and poignant ache.

She wasn't sure if her situation could be considered unattainable longing, but she couldn't help but wonder how much pain Nathael must have felt in her past life.

Half an hour later, Maggie and Nathael stepped into a private club.

Located a short distance from Nathael's house, the club occupies a tranquil spot. With a policy of accepting only appointments and restricting daily guests to ten tables, it radiated an aura of exclusivity.

The entrance featured a modest red wooden door embellished with two solid copper lion door knockers, reminiscent of the opulence of a royal residence.

Nathael noted that the club's chef cfrom a prestigious lineage of royal chefs. He originally cooked for state banquets during his younger days. The chef's son had now ascended to the position of master chef, overseeing similar grand occasions.

However, due to his advanced age and declining physical strength, he insisted on personally cooking two dishes when she was in a good mood. When he couldn't manage, he had a few apprentices he had taken in to take over.

As a result, the guests who chere were mostly high-ranking officials and dignitaries. The privacy was excellent, and the atmosphere was suitably grand.

Nathael halted outside a private chamber with Maggie. He extended his hand to push the door, but Maggie felt a twinge of unease, perhaps due to her interactions with Clara in her past life.

"If your parents disapprove of me, don't put them in a difficult position," Maggie whispered.

Nathael was always assertive and decisive, making his decisions difficult for others to alter. In a past life, Clara was outraged upon learning that her accomplished son intended to marry a blind woman who had insulted and tarnished his reputation.

However, Maggie never blamed her. She empathised with her, putting herself in her shoes and understanding the protective instincts of a mother. If it were her son, she feared she might have reacted similarly.

Furthermore, Clara, being a genuine lady of the upper class, refrained from ridiculing or tormenting her, despite any personal dislike she might have harboured. Instead, she defended Maggie whenever she faced unfair treatment.

Despite their longstanding conflicts and differences, Clara ultimately succumbed to her son's persuasion 29 Sat, 25 May Chapter 244 Giving You My Life and cunning, reluctantly accepting the situation.

With a gentle yet firm gaze. Nathael reassured her in his deep voice, "They will grow fond of you." Maggie let out a soft sigh, her uncertainty lingering.

Demi welcomed them warmly. "Nathael, Maggie, you guys are finally here!" Maggie's face flushed slightly as she subtly tugged at Nathael's sleeve, silently blaming him with her eyes. This is all because of you! We're late! Nathael maintained his composure, his expression unchanged, and said, "Maggie sprained her ankle, so she's moving a bit slower." Demi's eyes widened in concern. "Oh no, how did you hurt yourself? Did Nathael take you to the hospital, or should we call Leslie for assistance?" "It's fine, just a little twist. It's a bit swollen, but I'll ice it for a few days, and it should be better, Maggie reassured, sensing Demi's genuine concern.
