He could still faintly recall the day he brought Nellie back to the Dawson family home. He promised, "I''ll give you a stable home from now on."


    She hugged him, and her smile was as radiant as a spring morning as she sweetly said, "You''ve been so good to me, Cameron. I''ll make sure to repay your kindness."


    But the home they shared fell apart at the seams.


    Cameron guiltily attempted to cate her and said, "Nellie, my only mistake was not loving you. But you can''t force feelings. Nellie, think of me as a passing breeze and let me go. I''ll help you move abroad, far from the Capital, so you can start anew and find happiness. How does that sound?" Nathalie smirked, "Who do you think you are to decide my life for me?"


    Desperate, Cameron grabbed her hand. "What will it take for you to leave my world? Nellie, your presence is severely disrupting my life and career."


    Nathalie stared at him coldly. "Ever thought I might be doing this on purpose?"


    Seeing the mocking glint in Nellie''s eyes, Cameron let go, feeling powerless.


    He finally understood that Nellie was no longer the naive girl he could control but a fierce tiger he had unwittingly nurtured. If he wasn''t cautious, she might devour him whole. "You deliberately stole my business?"


    Nathalie''s smile was mysterious. She took Nathan''s hand and walked away.


    As they passed Greta, they overheard her timid warning, "Nel, don''t do anything stupid. Wealthy men like Nathan would never marry a divorced woman."


    Nathalie paused, ncing back at her wedding ring. The diamond wasrge and pricy.


    The ring Cameron gave her back then had diamonds no bigger than grains of rice.


    Nathalie chuckled, "Greta, what do you think Mrs. Dawson would do if she found out you whisked away her precious son?"


    Greta''s face turned pale. She


    nervously ran her hand, wedding ring and all, through her hair. "Nel, don''t worry about me. Whether or not marry into wealth doesn''t matter. As long as Cameron loves me, that''s enough."


    "What a gold digger," Nathan remarked suddenly.


    Greta flinched.


    Nathan and Nathalieughed as they left. Greta could hear them openly talking about her.


    Nathan said, "She''s neither prettier nor more graceful than you, and she reeks of perfume. It''s ridiculous you lost to her."


    Nathalie responded, "Some people just have cheap tastes."


    Nathan mocked, "Nah, trash finds its way to the dump."Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.


    Nathalie agreed, "Better they stick together, so they don''t harm innocent folks."


    "Ha ha ha."


    Greta clenched her fists in anger. "Cameron, they''re making fun of me," she whined. Cameron''s expression was grim, his mood even worse. "Let''s just go."


    Even as they left the Rond family''s mansion, Greta''s anger barely subsided. "This is outrageous. Nellie''s gone too far. How can she treat us like that?"


    Cameron had lost a thriving business and a critical design partnership. His career was in shambles, and he couldn''t muster the energy to dwell on Nellie''s insults.


    "Her revenge is far harsher than any words she could say," Cameron replied weakly.
