Chapter 15
When Milana unexpectedly brought up Nellie, it was like a wake-up call for Cameron. Had it really been weeks
since Nellie last reached out to him? There's not a single text, not even a voice message.
He finally realized something was off, especially since she used to be so attached to him. She'd find any excuse
to reach out, even if they saw each other every day. Whether it was to share a new dish she loved, remind him to
dress warmly for the weather, or coax him hearly with the promise of a surprise, she was always chatting
away.
Now, the silence from Nellie was deafening and completely out of character.
It seemed that his decision to send her abroad had really upset her. If she wasn't contacting him, surely she was
asking those around him to cover her living expenses.

Cameron turned to Matt and asked, "How's she been lately? Has she mentioned needing anything? Make sure to
take care of her requests."
Matt looked uneasy. "Sir, there's been no sign of her since she went abroad."
Cameron's face turned serious. "What's going on with her? Did she go off the rails abroad and forget she's
married?"
Matt's expression was hard to read. Had Cameron forgotten that she left behind everything he bought her, even
the credit card, when she went abroad?
Milana chimed in with a smirk, "Maybe your obedient little wife wants more than just the title of your wife. Maybe
she's after the love that should cwith this title. You can't give her that love, and maybe that's why she left
you?"
Cameron seemed oblivious to Milana's sarcasm, lost in memories of the countless romantic gestures Nellie had
made for him. "She lovesso much. There's no way she'd actually leave me. She's just playing hard to get. If |
give in, I've lost." Milana couldn't help but retort, "If you're in love with Greta, why not divorce Nellie and let her
go?"
Greta stepped in to defend Cameron. "Milana, you're not Nellie. You don't get her. What you see as poison, she
might see as sweet."
Milana fired back, "Greta, you're so generous. Cameron practically dates you with his wife's scent still on him,
and you're not jealous?"
Greta replied with poise, "If it were anyone else, | wouldn't stand for it. But Nellie's my sister. Plus, she saved my
life with a kidney donation. Cameron treats her well, and I'm okay with that. Plus-"

Greta flashed a ring on her finger. "Cameron picked this out forhimself. Unlike the gifts Nellie got, which were
from his assistant. | have Cameron's love. | don't need the title of Mrs. Dawson to feel secured. I'm content."
After making her point, Greta urged Cameron, "You should bring Nellie back soon. I'm worried about her being
alone abroad."
Cameron nodded. "Sure."
Frustrated, Milana downed a glass of brandy.
Meanwhile, in Milan, after a long day, Nellie nearly collapsed onto her bed, utterly worn out. Checking her phone,
she saw a flood of trending news about Cameron and Greta that Milana had shared.
Cameron was seen escorting Greta to and from the hospital, attending her favorite fashion shows, dining at
fancy restaurants, and supporting her business ventures. The tender care he showed Greta and the way he
looked at her made it obvious to anyone-those two were definitely more than just friends.
