Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 378

"An appearance fee?" Nathalie scoffed. "You sure you can afford my rates?"

Cameron leaned in, unfazed. "Name your price."

Nathalie was caught off guard and blurted, "Two million."

"Deal," Cameron replied without missing a beat.

Nathalie was momentarily speechless. If she’d known he'd agree so quickly, she might've asked for more. Although Cameron was basking in the limelight, the Dawson family had cut ties with him, which had dented his fortune. Two million would surely sting.

And honestly, Nathalie couldn't wait to see Greta's face when she learned Cameron was throwing cash around for her.

With a smirk, Nathalie held out her hand. "No credit."

Cameron chuckled, pulling out his phone to make the transfer. He sent two million, just like that, without even a twitch.

Watching him move so smoothly, Nathalie felt a twinge of irritation. "You're like a cat with nine lives, Cameron. I didn't expect you to bounce back like this."

Cameron, far from upset, laughed. "Did you really think you could drain my bank account?"

Nathalie shrugged, not bothering to hide her intentions. "Cameron, it's only a matter of time before you lose everything—not just your money, but your spirit, too."

Cameron glared at her, his expression firm. "Nathalie, I'm not that easy to knock down."

Nathalie snorted, turned on her heel, and slammed the door behind her.

Greta's eyes widened, sensing a growing distance. Her voice trembled. "Cameron, I'm sorry. I promise I won't do it again."

Cameron nodded, his gaze serious. "I've invited someone else as my date for the gala."

Greta's dress slipped from her hands, her face turning pale. "Cameron? Why can’t I go? I’m your wife. Being with you would show everyone what a family man you are."

Cameron replied, "Mr. Gavin hinted he wanted me to bring someone more... suitable."

With that, Cameron stood up. "I'm tired. I need a shower."

Greta remained frozen, devastated by his words. "Am I not suitable?" she called after his retreating figure, her voice tinged with hurt.
