Chapter 271 Dangerous Pleasure!

Ronald paused, then realised that he had indeed never spoken up for Maggie.

He swiftly composed himself and explained, “Actually, Sierra and Maggie have had a strong bond since their childhood. However, this year, a misunderstanding has arisen between them. Once we resolve this issue, everything should be back to normal. Rest assured, Mr. Harris, I will ensure Sierra receives the appropriate guidance!”

After he spoke, Ronald turned to look at Sierra. She was no fool; despite her reluctance, she lowered her head and said, “I spoke without thinking just now. Please forgive me, Mr. Harris.”

As Nathael watched this touching scene, his mood was still bad.

He thought about how Maggie deserved to enjoy a life of luxury and protection from her family, yet due to their schemes and exploitation, she had to face many hardships and sufferings, the depth of which only she could truly know,

Nathael spoke solemnly, “For Maggie’s sake, I will not pursue today’s matter further.”

Ronald and Sierra both sighed in relief. Ronald quickly responded, “Rest assured, Mr. Harris, I will have Sierra personally apologise to Maggie.”

Nathael spoke indifferently, “I understand that Ms. Cameron must have been frightened today. So, Ethan, give her a gift as compensation.”

Sierra was stunned for a few seconds, even forgetting the pain on her face.

Ronald’s expression did not change; he was not surprised, assuming this was just Nathael’s way of giving a harsh lesson followed by a sweetener.

A few seconds later, Ethan approached Sierra with a tray in his hands.

On the tray, there was a cup of steaming hot water, so freshly boiled that mist clung to the sides of the cup, and steam rose continuously.

Upon seeing Ethan, Sierra instinctively stepped back two steps, and seeing the boiling water in fron him made her even more uneasy.
