Chapter 193
Cameron found himself caught off guard by Nathan's sharp words, his face turning a deep shade of red with
frustration.
Clenching his jaw, he demanded, "What's really going on between you and Nathalie?"
Nathan crossed his arms, a sly grin on his lips. "Why don't you take a guess?"
Cameron attempted a smile, though his irritation was evident. "One minute you're boss and assistant, then
friends, and suddenly lovers. That's quite the entanglement, isn't it?" Leaning in with a mischievous glint in his
eye, Nathan whispered in Cameron's ear, "Nathalie and | are simply partners."

Cameron scoffed, "You're giving her way too much credit. She just knows how to make a few outfits. Surely your
empire isn't limited to a woman's sewing room."
His words were laced with a double meaning.
Nathan's smile grew more enigmatic. "Cameron, you've hit the nail on the head. | couldn't care less about the
fashion brand. My only goal in teaming up with Nathalie is to outdo you." Cameron's handsfeatures paled
instantly. He stared at Nathan in shock. "Mr. Nathan, we have no history of bad blood, right?"
Nathan's smile was easygoing. "Yes, but you've hurt Nathalie. And not in a small way."
Cameron pieced together a chilling truth from Nathan's calm demeanor. "I thought you were using Nathalie as a
pawn in our business rivalry Looks like | was wrong. Turns out she's out to destroy me, and you're her weapon of
choice."
Nathan clapped his hands. "Cameron, you're finally catching on. Your smarts seemed offline lately, and facing off
against someone so clueless has been dull."
Cameron gritted his teeth. "Nathan, you're from a prestigious family, with all the wealth you could imagine. How
can you willingly take orders from a woman who cfrom nothing?" Nathan replied, "Cameron, | never
expected you, of all people, to drag your own nthrough the mud over a mere fefatale. It seems we're
more alike than we'd care to admit." Cameron locked eyes with Nathan, still grappling with the fact that all of
Nathan's meticulous scheming was for his seemingly unremarkable ex-wife.
After wrapping up the show's second episode, Cameron took a break before the next recording and headed back
to the heart of the city.
He made a point to visit his buddy Benjamin. "Ben, do you have any idea what's really going on between Nathan

Benjamin was just as baffled. "I've watched the show, and it's odd how Nathan and Nathalie act almost like
they're family. But | asked my dad, and he's certain Nathalie isn't related to the Rowland family at all."
"That can't be," Cameron said, clearly
rattled. "Nathalie's usually so
reserved and socially anxious. She's wary around strangers, but she shower's Nathan with more affection than
she ever did with me. I'm sure they knew each other well before three years ago."
Benjamin dismissed the notion. "That's impossible. Nathan grew up in the McCoy family and was introverted
from a young age. Theo was worried about his precious grandson and always had him surrounded by staff. He
wouldn't have had tto meet someone like Nathalie from the common world."
Cameron shook his head, unconvinced by Benjamin's explanation.
