Sierra’s complexion paled. She stood up and left.

However, Maggie’s smug expression made her force herself to stay. She pleaded, “Mr. Caleb, can you give me a discount? We can be friends”

Leo chuckled friend.”

softly. He gazed at Sierra as he replied, “Ms. Cameron, I’m not interested in being your

With unyielding bluntness, Leo’s words wiped away the last remnants of a forced smile from Sierra’s face.

Impatiently, Leo rose to his feet. He declared, “Since you aren’t sincere, let’s forget it.”

With that, he began to leave without a backward glance.

“Wait!” Sierra felt a pang in her heart and finally spoke up, “3 million it is! I trust Mr. Caleb will honor your word and safeguard the secret.”

Leo settled back down. He spoke in a deep voice, “Certainly

Shortly afterward, he summoned a lawyer. After the two signed the contract, Sierra gave Leo 1.5 million. dollars provided by Olivia. Despite trying her best to gather the remainder, she could only muster a total of 750 thousand dollars for Leo.

The Camerons were affluent; Sierra had not assumed control of any businesses. Although a few companies bore her name, they were merely for show. She didn’t receive the profits.

The two companies are under her true jurisdiction; she purely runs them for fun.

Her family was lenient with her, but Sierra spent lavishly and never had any savings by month’s end. This amount of money took her a long time to scrape together.

“Mr. Caleb, for the remaining amount, could I offer you an IOU for now?” Sierra asked, but hesitated.

Leo couldn’t believe what he just heard.

“Don’t worry, I will

I will pay you

She was confident. that once the Herschire Cultural Park project was approved, she could easily request that her family settle the debt on her behalf.

Even if her father was reluctant, her parents would always assist her in repayment.

“I cannot wait a month; if Ms. Cameron fails to repay on time, then I’ll pay you a personal visit” Leo agreed.

After Leo left, Sierra cautiously consulted two designers from the Camerons to review the design plans and sketches. After confirming everything was alright, she finally relaxed and returned home.

Chapter 70 Dupe

When she saw the price of 1.5 million dollars double, Maggie felt she would be laughing in her dreams. tonight.

A servant summoned Maggie downstairs two hours later.

Master Cameron, Ronald, Sierra, and two seasoned architects from the family were gathered. They were examined and discussing something.

If Maggie was in the dark about the fact that Sierra had been duped into spending 3 million, she might have believed their deception.

“Sierra did an excellent job this time.” Madam Cameron commended.

Sierra gazed at Maggie and said with a smile, “It’s fortunate that Maggie didn’t finalize the deal earlier, or we would have had to spend more money on this. I wasn’t criticizing Maggie, but she tends to be overly cautious and overthink things.

Thank goodness that the design plan is deemed satisfactory, or we would have missed out on an opportunity.”

She was as mean as always, but surprisingly more restrained than before.

Sierra looked at Maggie with a sneer. Although the thought of losing 3 million pained her, she falsely claimed to have only spent 750 thousand to purchase the plan, simply to outdo Maggie.

At this time, she only owed Leo with 750 thousand. Once that amount was repaid, no one would be aware.

Maggie smiled and remarked softly, “If the Herschire Cultural Park project proceeds smoothly this time, Sierra will deserve credit for its success.”

She looked sincerely, ready to let bygones be bygones, as if she were genuinely happy. This expression by Maggie seriously irritates Sierra again.

It was rare to meet someone trusting and easily duped like Sierra. Oh no, she shouldn’t label her as gullible; Sierra was generous and kind–hearted!

Sierra sneered, “I should thank you for providing me with this opportunity. However, you have truly revealed your true nature this time, overthinking and maliciously speculating about others. Who would have imagined that this drawing is flawless?”

Olivia rushed to defend Sierra’s honor and promptly stated, “Although Sierra’s words were a little harsh, there is some truth to them. Maggie, you have a tendency to overanalyze and hesitate too much.”
