Chapter 141

Nellie had put Mr. Wade in charge of all things related to her divorce, diving headfirst into her work while waiting

for the legal wheels to turn. Her calm demeanor seemed to unsettle her rivals.

Greta, feeling antsy, asked Cameron, "Cameron, why haven't we heard a peep from Nellie's side?"

Cameron smirked, "She's probably scared stiff."

Kristina chimed in, "She's just like a leaf in the wind and won't be floating around much longer."

Greta let out a hearty laugh, but that laughter didn't last long.

Just three days before the court date, Cameron got a notice: Nellie wanted their divorce to be made public. That

sent Cameron through the roof. He called her up immediately and snapped, "Do you think divorce is sbadge

of honor? Why are you making it public?" Nellie barely looked up from her sketches, "Because I'm not the one

who's going to look bad."

Cameron's face turned a shade darker. "Nellie, why are you trying so hard to embarrass me?"

Nellie, still unfazed, said, "You madethe Capital's laughing stock first."

Cameron was left speechless. He knew that Nellie only his wife in name. Without his financial backing, she was

often the punchline among the city's elites. He'd thought she was tough-skinned enough to brush off the

mockery. Turns out, it had cut deeper than he imagined.

"I'm not agreeing to a public trial..."

"I'm insisting on it."

And they were at a standoff.

Cameron shouted, "Nellie, can't we be reasonable here?"

Nellie stood her ground, "If you won't agree to a public trial, | won't show up."

She wasn't the one eager to get this divorce over with. She knew Cameron wouldn't want their child labeled

illegitimate.

Frustrated, Cameron finally gave in. He just wanted the divorce to be finalized quickly. "Nellie, you're something

else. Fine, public it is. Let's see who ends up looking foolish. | have an ace legal team that'll clearof all the

nonsense you're trying to pin on me." Nellie snorted, dripping with sarcasm.

"Cameron, your mistress is already carrying your child. Still want to claim the affair is baseless?"

Cameron laughed defiantly. "Got any proof?"

Nellie went silent. Truth was, getting irrefutable proof of Cameron's affair was like trying to catch the wind.

Cameron, feeling triumphant, warned, "Nellie, quit while you're ahead. Don't let this backfire on you."

Nellie hung up on him.

What a jerk. Did he really think a few shabby houses would make her back down?

On the day of the court hearing, Cameron and Greta showed up at the courthouse looking sharp and full of

confidence, with their legal entourage in tow. The Dawson family tagged along, too, rallying behind Cameron.

The press swarmed the entrance, shoving microphones at Cameron, hungry for any juicy tidbits about the high-

profile divorce.

"Sir, there are rumors flying online that you cheated on your wife with her sister. Care to comment?" The lead

reporter, young and full of spunk, hit Cameron with hard-hitting questions, leaving him fuming but unable to

respond.
