Chapter 334 Overcome This Tough Time
Nathael took a moment to think before
Ying, Tl talk to my grandfather about this. Even though the Camerons are facing difficulties now, you’re still an affluent family. If you can overcome this tough situation, you might even thrive.”
His confident words resonated with Ronald.
Even though he had been maintaining a tough front, he didn’t want his life’s work to crumble. During such stressful times, he yearned for some good news.
However, Ronald, being shrewd, grasped Nathael’s hidden message.
Although the Camerons’ situation didn’t match the Harrises, there was potential for improvement.
Nathael’s mention of engagement indicated his intention to support the Camerons in some way, as shown by his generous offer of money.
While 150 million might not mean much to the Harrises, it was a significant gesture for an engagement.
Ronald understood that this engagement wasn’t set in stone, Nathael likely wanted to test the waters with this money and see if the Camerons could stand on their own..
If they succeeded, marriage could be discussed later; if not, they would not go through with the wedding.
In just a split second, Ronald had understood everything behind this arrangement. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Olivia, Madam Cameron, and the rest couldn’t conceal their joy at Nathael’s words. The recent gloom seemed to lift.
“Mr. Harris, I can tell you truly care about Maggie. Currently, the Camerons can’t provide much for her, which is regrettable, Ronald eloquently expressed.
Although Maggie smiled outwardly, she was deep in thought.com
Why is Nathael giving them hope?
He never mentioned this before, so why bring up engagement now?
“Alex, transfer the funds. Also, transfer some assets to Maggie’s name as a gift from me,” Nathael spoke firmly, and Alex promptly agreed.
Nathael then turned to Ronald and said, “Consider this money my personal engagement gift. I understand the Camerons are struggling, so I won’t insist on anything.”
Upon hearing this, Alex expressed concern. “But, Mr. Harris … it might be hard to explain to Master Harris when word gets out.”
Nathael frowned slightly and asserted, “It’s fine. I can handle it.”
Alex didn’t say more. As he counted the contracts, he muttered loud enough for everyone to hear, “But the Camerons aren’t beggars. How can they accept an engagement without contributing anything? If this gets out, people might think the Harrises are doing charity for poor people …”

Chapter 334 Overcome This Tough Time
He and Alex were scheming to pressure Ronald into providing more money.
After Alex’s remarks, Ronald, Master Cameron, and the rest appeared displeased.
The Camerons were considered well–off. Being compared to poor people was hurmiliating.
Even the thick–skinned Master Cameron felt the sting. Ronald, in particular, turned red with embarrassment and was unable to speak for a while.
“Mr. Solace, you’re right, but our situation at home is dire. How about we issue an IOU? Once things improve, we can make up for Maggie’s engagement gift. Maggie, would that be acceptable?” Ronald asked, hesitating.
Under his graying hair was a sincere face, his cloudy eyes filled with guilt and uncase. Seeing him like this, it was hard not to feel sympathetic.
Maggie inwardly sneered, knowing that Ronald was a master of manipulation. Asking him for money now wouldn’t be easy.
Nevertheless, rarely did Nathael extend such an opportunity, and she couldn’t let it slip away.
After a moment of silence, Maggie spoke slowly, “Dad, maybe we shouldn’t get engaged. If Master Harris finds out about our situation, he won’t approve. But our family is struggling right now, and everything we do seems to backfire…
As soon as Ronald heard this, he couldn’t hold back.
Regardless of whether Maggie marrying into the Harrises would benefit the family in the future, the current 150 million could truly save the Camerons‘ business!
Adam Cameron were anxious. “Maggie, how can you say that? You’re
Naturally, Master Cameron and disregarding Mr. Harris’s goodwill!”
Maggie’s eyes filled with tears as she lowered her head. “But our family is really in trouble now. What other options do we have? If we appear to be taking advantage of the Harrises, how will Master Harris see me?”
Taking a moment, Maggie continued, “I don’t care how others see me, but what about how they see you. Mom, Dad, Grandma, and Grandpa? It’ll be humiliating if word gets out.”
As soon as Sierra heard Maggie suggesting to cancel the engagement, she immediately spoke up. maybe we should postpone the engagement for now. It’s not urgent, and once our family business improves, we can revisit the engagement
Sierra wasn’t knowledgeable about business matters, and she didn’t want to be..
“Dad.
Lately, she was tired of all the business involving Cameron Group and Luster Corporation. She couldn’t understand why a piano competition would have such a big impact. The damaged reputation of Luster Corporation wasn’t solely her fault. Why should she bear such a heavy burden?
She just didn’t want to see Maggie engaged to Nathael. She believed Nathael was hers, and as long as she could delay their engagement, she would find an opportunity eventually.
Sierra glanced at Maggie and noticed Nathael’s hand holding hers. Her heart sank further when she saw the matching rings on their fingers. The jealousy felt like a flood about to consume her.

Sierra’s words nearly made Ronald turn away in anger. This id*ot!
But before he could respond, Maggie, looking pale, agreed. “Sierra’s right. Let’s postpone the engagement for now and wait for our family to overcome this tough time
Ronald felt the fire burning inside him. Overcome this tough time? How can we do that without money?!
Currently, the family’s liquid assets totaled only 30 to 45 million. The money from the mortgage loan they had taken out carlici hadn’t helped. It had all been ruined by Sierra’s foolishness.
Ronald didn’t dare dwell on it too much, as the more he thought about it, the higher his blood pressure
rose.
After a moment of silence, Nathael said, “Mr. Cameron, if your family doesn’t want to make this work, I won’t force you. Alex, I suppose we should just
Before Nathael could finish his sentence, Ronald said gently while suppressing his heartache, “Maggie, times are tough at home now, but don’t worry, your happiness is the most important thing. Even if we have to tighten our belts, we’ll make sure to come up with something
