Upon seeing the message, Cameron was so furious that he hurled his phone against the wall. He recalled how Nellie used to be, always doting on him like a loyal puppy. Now, she had transformed into someone so distant and unattainable that it was near impossible for
him to even meet her. How had their roles reversed so dramatically?
Nellie nced at her now silent phone, her once serene face clouded with determination. After everything, Cameron still didn''t want a divorce. She wasn''t about to waste her prime years on him anymore. Nellie decided it was time for Cameron to face a harsh reality check. She sought out her ace divorcewyer, Jim, and handed him all the documents she had meticulously prepared. "Here are the debts I''ve incurred during our marriage," she began. "And here''s proof of Cameron transferring assets while we were married. These show his affair with Greta, and here''s evidence of his emotional abuse after we tied the knot." "Jim, with all this evidence, can I get a smooth divorce?" Nellie asked, her voice steady but hopeful.
Jim regarded her with a calm assurance, "With everything you''ve got on him, even a newbiewyer could win this case. Imagine the advantage with me on your side."
Nellie was taken aback but relieved. "Then I''ll be waiting for your good news."
Meanwhile, Cameron was nning to give Nellie the cold shoulder for a while. But Nellie''swyer, Jim, came at him like a force of nature. "Mr. Dawson, I''m Jim, Nellie''s divorce attorney. We need to talk."
Cameron had just wrapped up a morning meeting and was already in a foul mood, thanks to hispanygging behind Nathan''s new business. The sight of Jim only worsened his temper. "I don''t have time for this," he snapped.
Unfazed, Jim replied smoothly, "Mr. Dawson, you might want to take a look at the divorce agreement Nellie drafted before you make any decisions."
Jim handed him the agreement. Cameron, with his hands shoved in his pockets, eyed it with a dismissive sneer. "What''s there to see? It''s the usual story of emotional fallout and her leaving with nothing."
Jim smiled, "This time, it''s different. You''re in for quite a shock, Mr. Dawson."
Curiosity got the better of him, and Cameron opened the document. His eyes widened in disbelief. This time, Nellie wasn''t leaving empty-handed; she was demanding half of his assets. "In your dreams," Cameron scoffed.
Jim exined, "Mr. Dawson, ording to the civil code, any ie earned during the marriage-like sries, bonuses, or business profits-is considered joint property."ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Cameron retorted, "I signed a prenup before we got married. Besides, my post-marriage ie is spent as soon as ites in."
Jim chuckled lightly, "If every man followed your lead, Mr. Dawson, women might choose to stay single, and humanity might face extinction."
Cameron''s expression turned sour. He knew his actions towards Nellie were anything but noble. It wasmon for wealthy families to guard their fortunes, but none were as tight-fisted as he was.
Jim continued, "Mr. Dawson, even though you didn''t contribute to Nellie''s wealth during your marriage, you must share the substantial debts she rued-fifty percent, to be exact."
As Jim handed over the bill, Cameron stared at the lengthy list, feeling a headache beginning to throb.
