Chapter 118

Nathan pulled a document from a file and shook it open with a flick, revealing the agreement inside. It was a

debt contract between Nellie and him.

"From now on, Nellie has to work foraround the clock to pay off a ten billion debt. Her face represents my

company. If you harm her, it affects my flourishing business. Mr. Dawson, do you still think | shouldn't get

involved in Greta's situation?" Nathan said softly. Cameron couldn't help but find the situation absurd. "This is

ridiculous. Mr. Nathan, aren't you aware of labor laws? Even if Nellie signed a lifelong contract, legally, she can

only work eight hours a day..."

Before Cameron could finish, Nathan flipped to an addendum. It stated that Nellie voluntarily agreed to overtime,

with double the pay as per labor laws. Her signature and thumbprint were there as well. Nathan carefully tucked

the contract away, then flashed a smile at Cameron. "Mr. Dawson, if you want to buy out Mrs. Dawson's contract,

you'll need to payten times the penalty fee." Cameron's face turned pale, glaring at Nellie with frustration. "I

warned you, doing business with him is a losing game."

Nellie was taken aback by Nathan's meticulous planning. He was truly the future Rowland heir apparent.

Instead of panicking, she faced Cameron with a mocking look. "Cameron, either pay up to free me, or let's get

divorced. You don't have to worry about my debt then."

Cameron's expression darkened. Nellie noticed a flicker of hesitation in his eyes, sensing his internal conflict. She

instinctively knew he was contemplating leaving her behind.

Nathan spoke gently, "Nellie, today's your first official day at work. Cwith me."

Nellie followed Nathan, leaving the Dawson household behind.

After she left, Cameron slumped on the couch. Greta tried to console him. "Cameron, my sister's gotten tangled

up with Nathan and is deep in debt because of his schemes. This could end up affecting the Dawson family."

Cameron scoffed, "I'm not just going to sit and do nothing."

Greta chimed in, "Maybe you should just divorce Nel?"

Cameron fell into a brooding silence. Regret flashed in his eyes. Initially, when bidding for Timeless Cycle, his

goal was either to win the locket for Greta or drive up the cost to drain Nathan's resources.

Little did he know Nathan would flip the script on him. By exploiting Nellie's misstep, Nathan had placed

Cameron in a tight spot.

Cameron now faced two options: either cover Nellie's colossal damages or divorce her to save himself.

"Nathan played his cards well," Cameron had to admit with reluctant admiration.

Greta, ever flattering, added, "Cameron, someone like Nathan is no match for you. It's just that Nellie is holding

you back..."

Mentioning Nellie made Cameron's face cloud over again. "Nellie, you've leftno choice."

Joy flickered in Greta's eyes.

Meanwhile, Nellie sat in Nathan's luxury car, her expression somber, eyes looking forlornly out the window.

Nathan gently touched her swollen face, his voice warm and empathetic, "Nellie, I'm sorry | was late. You've

been through a lot."
