Chapter 351 Retaliation
Nathael harboured little interest in the affairs of Sierra. Knowing that she and Ivan received the retribution they deserved sufficed for him.
He flicked another message to Maggie: ‘Will you be back tonight? I’ll come pick you up.
Maggie rejected: “No, I must watch this show first!’
Nathael replied with a speechless emoticon.
Following a period of anticipation without hearing from Maggie, he couldn’t hold back from sending another message: “Does the show outweigh my importance to you?‘
Maggie’s response was succinct: “Absolutely!”
With that terse reply, Nathacl felt a twinge of sorrow. He draped his coat over his shoulders, his face sombre, and remarked to Alex, “We should head over to the Cameron residence.””
Their previous closeness contrasted sharply with her sudden aloofness, leaving him unsettled.
In the interim, Sierra made a gradual descent down the staircase. Ronald glanced at Madam Burton and said in a low voice, “Sierra has arrived. Madam Burton, you may proceed.”
Madam Burton’s lips curled into a sneer, “Ivan has served as Sierra’s teacher for more than ten years, yet what manner of upbringing did the Camerons provide for their child? She has the audacity to entangle with her teacher!”
Madam Burton projected authority as she forcefully struck her hand upon the coffee table before her, visibly expressing her ire.
Upon this revelation, Olivia, Madam Cameron, and the others bristled with indignation, while Maggie attentively scrutinized Sierra’s comportment.
Sierra possessed a fragile countenance, admired for its understated and alluring beauty. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
In that instant, Sierra’s lips appeared slightly puffy, and she donned a turtleneck blouse, obscuring her arms and neckline.
Nevertheless, Maggie could detect an irregularity in her stride, a swelling on one side of her face, and a sense of discomposure about her.
“What absurdity is this? Sierra is a pure and innocent girl. How dare you say she would entangle herself with Ivan? Do you truly believe she would entertain any such notion?”
Olivia rose indignantly, her reprimand laced with fervour.
Madam Cameron’s brows furrowed as she asserted, “Madam Burton, you may indulge in untidy dining habits, but unfounded gossip about Sierra is unacceptable.”
Madam Burton’s lips curled into a sneer as she retorted, “This very morning. Kehlani caught sight of her with Ivan in the music room. If you require confirmation, your daughter is right here for you to inquire!”

Upon hearing this, all eyes shifted expectantly to Sierra, awaiting her reaction.
Sierra felt the weight of their stares, causing her discomfort and an inexplicable sense of agitation that made it difficult for her to meet their
gaze.
Kehlani had documented the occurrence, leaving her with no route of evasion. The mere thought of its exposure threatened to shatter her life completely.
Sierra’s thoughts raced, engulfed in a whirlwind of overanalysis.
“Sierra, speak up!” Olivia, as her mother, approached Sierra in this tense moment, clutching her arm tightly, urging her to clarify.
Kehlani’s sneer persisted as she interjected, “Mrs. Cameron, there’s no need for conjecture. Upon my arrival at your residence earlier today, I was accompanied by a photographer to document everything with photos and videos. Why not review them directly?”
To Maggie, Ivan seemed like the epitome of a character who spoke little but possessed a ruthless demeanour.
Despite hearing others label her as domineering and assertive, Maggie saw no fault in being so.
With that said, Kehlani instructed someone to show the video and photos to Olivia and Ronald, probably to save face for Sierra, ensuring the evidence didn’t circulate to others‘ hands.
Despite this, Sierra’s complexion changed slightly. She didn’t deny it, instead bursting into tears and sobbing. “Mom, Dad! Ivan and I were set up. The food at lunch today was suspicious, or maybe it was the drinks! We
As she attempted to explain, Kehlani interjected, “Set up? Who did you offend, and why would others plot against you like this? You claim it’s a setup, then prove it! From what I saw, you were clearly enjoying yourself. Without evidence, your words are merely empty.”
Kehlani’s words struck like thunder, leaving Sierra speechless.
During lunch, Ivan was too preoccupied with chasing after Kehlani to consider having the food tested. Meanwhile, Sierra’s mind was in disarray, and such thoughts never crossed her mind.
Furthermore, what impact would it have?
Even if evidence surfaced indicating a plot against them, the circumstances had already unfolded.
Initially, Maggie hadn’t dwelled on it much. However, as she listened to Kehlani’s words, a notion struck her suddenly. Could this possibly be linked to the earlier incident when we attempted to reprimand
Sierra?
Had Draco and his associates orchestrated this?
Maggie had never considered this possibility previously, but now she found herself compelled to message Nathael once more: ‘Is this related to Draco?‘
A certain insignificant figure, with a brooding gaze fixed on the phone screen, replied with a curt: ‘Yes.
Maggie was startled by the confirmation she received.

Chapter 351 Retaliation:
This is a situation entirely foreign to her past experiences and expectations. Draco and his associates. exhibited a level of ruthlessness beyond her imagination. Contemplating further, if they were capable of such actions toward her, there was no barrier preventing them from targeting Sierra and Ivan as well.
A profound sense of isolation enveloped her. While she found their approach excessively severe, she harboured no sympathy for Sierra.
Sierra was the kind of foolishly naive yet ruthlessly cunning individual. The pains inflicted upon her were etched deep into her bones, Maggie wouldn’t be foolish enough to sympathise with a woman who could easily gouge out her eyes.
Ronald cast only a fleeting glance at the photos and videos before turning away. Despite his paternal instincts, he couldn’t endure the distressing scenes before him.
Olivia fixated on the images a bit longer, but soon her vision blurred, tears streaming down her checks. Rising abruptly, she rushed towards Madam Burton, declaring, “Ivan is a monster! Heartless creature! How could he subject Sierra, still so young, to such cruelty? Now, you even dare step foot in here. I’ll fight you!”
Marveling at her swift response, Maggie couldn’t help but admire her ability to deflect blame from Sierra onto Ivan, momentarily blurring the lines between morality and deceit.
With a contemptuous sneer, Madam Burton shoved Olivia aside, displaying surprising vigor despite her age. She delivered a cold retort, “How could such a young girl be capable of such deeds? It appears that it’s parents like
you, incapable of discerning right from wrong, who are to blame!
Olivia staggered backward, collapsing onto the ground, her tears flowing uncontrollably.
Reacting promptly. Ronald’s voice rang out with authority, “No one wishes to witness such a confrontation between two parties. Madam Burton’s attempt to solely incriminate Sierra is absurd. Ivan exploited the circumstances, and the Camerons rightfully demand an explanation from him!”
Sierra stood anxiously by the side, watching as Olivia provided her with a lifeline. Hastily, she began to cry, “It’s true! Mr. Reed was always inappropriate, always touching me inappropriately. He even promised that if I stayed with him, he would help me win more awards
“In previous instances, I consistently declined, yet today, I’m baffled as to how I became ensnared in
someone’s scheme.”
