Let’s start all over again,shall we?

Chapter 303 The Camerons' Luck Has Run Out Maggie stayed quiet, realizing that Master Harris had taken action. No wonder Madam Cameron said what she did earlier.

Maggie stayed hushed, not saying a word.

Ronald continued. "I hope you'll marry into the Harrises. But Nathael's position among them is quite high. Without Master Harris's approval, your chances are slim....

Maggie looked down and murmured, “Dad, I understand. At first, I approached him to help the family, but I can't ignore that he's quite charming." Maggie didn't deny her feelings for Nathael, nor did she firmly express them. Being too definite would make her sound suspicious and lead Ronald to speculate more.

Ronald nodded. "As long as you know what you're doing. Mr. Harris controls the Spectral Port project. Though snames are already on the list, if Mr. Harris agrees, the Camerons can still get a piece. Try putting seffort into it...! Maggie nodded, "Got it." "Also, check out these projects, especially Atrium Mall and Florum Hot Springs. See if you can get hold of internal documents and data, Ronald suggested slowly.

Maggie felt a hint of sarcasm. Internal data? What does that even mean? It's just a hint forto steal Nathael's data and documents.

Ronald saw Luster Corporation's losses and planned to refocus on the construction business.

The Camerons were on the government's blacklist, so they had to target other projects. The bigger the project, the more money there was to be made.

Maggie figured these two projects were likely the biggest ones the Camerons could get into. Even if they couldn't handle them fully, just having a share would be profitable.

"I'll try, but after what happened with Joseph last time, Mr. Harris has been cautious around me," Maggie replied. Ronald understood and went on, "Speaking of which, Joseph is getting engaged to Vanessa.” Maggie was shocked; this was unexpected.

Joseph and Vanessa are getting engaged? "So soon?" Ronald nodded, "Joseph isn't getting any younger, and it's just an engagement for now. It'll take tto sort things out." Maggie thought for a moment and said warmly, "As long as you and Mom are okay with it. I wish them 1/3 67% Chapter 303 The Camerons' Luck Has Run Out Ronald fell silent for a bit. His face was full of wrinkles as he looked at Maggie with his slightly cloudy eyes that were tinged with a touch of bitterness.

"Vanessa's background isn't as good, but Joseph seems determined, whether out of spite or genuine affection. He insisted, so I agreed to it.

"For now, it's just an engagement. If they're meant to be, they'll make it to marriage. If not, they might not get that far" Maggie's gaze turned cold as she silently evaluated Ronald.

He painted the picture of a somewhat dissatisfied but helpless father, while revealing his materialism and hypocrisy openly.

It was difficult for Maggie to find the truth amid all the deceit.

However, she couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong.

How could things escalate so rapidly? Ronald is always focused on profit. Even though he hinted that he might not ultimately approve of their marriage, agreeing to let Joseph get engaged with someone like Vanessa, considering her background, is a kind of compromise in itself.

What could convince Joseph to compromise? Only self-interest! But Vanessa has no sway or clout. What advantages can she bring to the Camerons? The Adams? Maggie's thoughts raced, but she maintained a calm demeanor.

"Dad, maybe you should have a talk with Joseph later to understand his true thoughts. Although things didn't work out between us, he's always been strategic. Perhaps he has other intentions.” Maggie engaged in small talk with Ronald for a while. When she noticed he was tired, she got up to leave. However, just as she reached for the doorknob, Ronald suddenly called out to stop her.

"Maggie..." "Yes, Dad?" Maggie turned to face him.

"Do you know that all the projects the family invested in, based on the list you received from Nathael, have failed miserably?" Ronald's gaze was sharp, his cloudy eyes piercing, with a hint of inquiry and sternness.

In that instant, Ronald's demeanor turned especially sharp. He was no longer the resigned, aged father, nor the middle-aged man shouldering family burdens, nor even the cunning businessman.

He resembled a fierce predator, finally baring his hidden claws, scrutinizing her as if trying to peer her soul.

Maggie's breath caught, and she was almost defense into 2/3 Chapter 303 The Camerons' Luck Has Run Opt She furrowed her brow and repeated, "Every project we invested in failed?" ☐67% Ronald's voice was grave. "Yes, we selected five projects based on the initial investment plan you gave us Maggie furrowed her brow even deeper. "Is there a specific reason? I've glanced at sof those projects, and while I didn't understand all of them, sseemed promising."

Maggie didn't reveal any hints, and Ronald's demeanor relaxed. He sighed softly. "Two of them weren't LOV necessarily poor projects but were plagued by misfortune and external factors.

"Nevermind. Perhaps it's just that the Camerons' luck has run out," Ronald Ο mused, slumping in his hefty chair, looking weary. The strands of white hair at his temples added to the melancholy. In her previous life, Maggie might have been deceived by his façade. The Camerons, except for Sierra, were adept actors who could win Oscars.

However, after enduring numerous setbacks in her past life and being manipulated in this one, Maggie knew better.

"Dad, things will get better. I'll try to gauge Nathael's thoughts when I have the chance," Maggie obediently reassured.

Ronald nodded. "Maggie, do you know what I've been most grateful for over the years? It's bringing you back from the orphanage. You've never disappointed me." "Dad, don't worry too much. Whether it's Joseph, Sierra, or me, we just want to see the family prosper." After dealing with Ronald, Maggie left the Camerons' residence feeling drained.

Sitting in the car, she sighed deeply. While driving, Maggie dialed Lucas's number.

"Maggie, are you alright?" Lucas inquired with concern, recalling his recent visit to Maggie in the hospital. with Joyce.

I'm fine. Do you have any leads regarding Flora, the Angel of Medicine?" Maggie inquired, still concerned for her safety.

Lucas sounded disheartened. "No, they seem to have vanished without a trace. I'm suprised they could do that during this digital age." "It's alright. If they were easy to find, their doorstep would be crowded by now," Maggie consoled him gently.

"Could you keep an eye on Vanessa and Joseph for me, especially Vanessa's unusual behavior and her connection with the Adams?"

Maggie still couldn't decipher Vanessa's intentions, but since Vanessa lacked influence, and the Gamerons were currently embroiled in a heated rivalry with the Adams, the only thing she could do to help Ronald was regarding the Adams. Send Gifts X
