Chapter 108 All Men Are Like This

Nathael’s continued silence led Maggie to attempt appeasement by sending a GIF of two cuddling teddy. bears, hoping to lighten his mood.

However, his lack of response persisted.

Maggie felt a surge of irritation. She could grasp that he might be upset, but the depth of his silence puzzled her.

Maggie began to doubt if Nathael was genuinely upset.

In the end, she closed WhatsApp, deciding against further messages.

It seemed to her that pleasing this man was becoming an increasingly difficult task.

An hour later, Maggie was back at school, picking up a few necessities before making her way to the Cameron residence.

The Camerons were engaging in their typical behaviour, which, from Maggie’s perspective, only worked in her favour.

Only through their chaos could she find her opportunity.

Upon her arrival at the Camerons, she encountered Vanessa as well. Olivia’s welcome was lukewarm at best but tolerable.

Joseph was affectionately holding Vanessa, enjoying the fruits she fed him, creating a scene of domestic bliss.

Vanessa’s reaction upon noticing Maggie was one of guilt; she quickly got up from the couch, her actions betraying a sense of panic as she stole guilty looks towards Maggie.

The overacted and forced display made Maggic involuntarily roll her eyes.

Joseph stayed put, locking eyes with Maggie while signaling Vanessa to reclaim her seat. “Why did you get up? Sit down.”

Joseph, this doesn’t feel right.”

Vanessa glanced nervously towards Maggie, her hesitation evident.
