Chapter 114 Unexpected Encounter

Ericko didn’t respond, but he could guess the reason.

Because of Beth’s photos and videos, Nathael misunderstood Maggie’s relationship with him.

That day at the hospital, Maggie was preoccupied with Fiona’s illness, probably not noticing her own pale face and icy body.

Looking back, he likely didn’t realise he had held her fingers and draped a jacket over her.

It escaped her attention, but that didn’t mean Nathael hadn’t noticed.

Ericko still remembered the dangerous look in Nathael’s eyes when he spotted them. Ultimately, when Maggie chose to stay, Nathael probably thought she had chosen him.

“That’s me. I’m going home.” Maggie withdrew her thoughts, not expecting any answers from him.

She just yearned to vent a little of the frustration in her heart.

“Sure, contact me anytime,” Ericko said softly, his expression gentle.

Clearly, he also had no intention to explain.

If Nathael wasn’t speaking up, why should he interfere? If he wanted to reconcile with Maggie, he would have to resolve some misunderstandings on his own.

And letting him out cold might not be such a bad thing.

After parting on bad terms, Maggie hadn’t contacted Nathael again, nor had he sought her out.

The distance that had seemed too close between them felt like it had reverted to its starting point.

Perhaps their relationship was worse than before.

Maggie forced herself not to dwell on the breakup, staying busy with the jewelry company and venture capital firm registered in her name. She gathered the resources wheedled from Ronald and changed everything. Leo and Mia invested in both companies, and they formally started to operate.

Although Maggie understood jewelry design well, she lacked experience in running a company.

In her previous life, the Camerons would never have handed her such important responsibilities. After she became blind and disfigured, it all turned into wishful thinking.

When Ericko heard about her project, he assigned an experienced employee to assist her. With his assistance, the jewelry company progressed smoothly.
