Chapter 252
He was so caring towards Greta, and that was all the proof she needed. So, before Patrick’s time ran out, she needed to snag a ha sample to confirm if they were biologically related.
As soon as Nathalie stepped into the hospital, she was blocked by a bunch of burly guys. She recognized one of them as Cameras personal bodyguard. It hit her instantly–Greta hadn’t called her here because Patrick was on the brink, it was Cameron’s play to use her as leverage against Nathan.
“Ms. Nathalie, the boss wants a word with you. Come with us, please.
“And if I refuse?”
The bodyguards closed in menacingly. “Then, don’t blame us for getting rough.”
Nathalie glanced around; she was in the hospital’s blind spot. The emergency elevator and the stairs were out of service. She didat stand a chance against these guys in a footrace.
“Alright, I’ll go with you.” Nathalie knew when to bend but not break.
The bodyguards cleared a narrow path, ensuring she couldn’t slip away. Eventually, they led her into a swanky VIP surte
Opening the door, she found Cameron standing right in the middle of the room, casually puffing on a cigar
Cameron turned, his face dark and intimidating. “Pretty gutsy of you to mess with my business partner?
Nathalie chuckled. “Cameron, business is like a battlefield; it’s all about winning or losing, not the journey, lanit that your motto!
Cameron’s handsome face twisted with anger.
“Sure, but aren’t you celebrating a bit too soon? Nathan might not have the nerve to team up with Regan.”
Nathalie snorted. “Nathan isn’t as spineless as you.”
Cameron smirked, something brewing behind his eyes. “Oh really? How about a bet–who do you think Nathan will pick, you or Regan?? “What are you planning?” Nathalie stepped back.
“Relax, I won’t do anything illegal. I’m just inviting you to stay here for a bit.”
Nathalie caught on. “You want to hold me hostage to pressure Nathan into ditching Regan?”
Cameron stared, realizing he had underestimated her smarts. “Don’t worry, Nathalie, you’ll just stay here for a few days. I’ll make sure you’re comfortable and unharmed,” he assured her.
Nathalie fumed. “Who in their right mind would want to stay with you? Cameron, where do you think this leaves my reputation?” Cameron’s pride took a hit. Countless women desired his company, yet Nathalie couldn’t stand him. Did he really lack his usual chara? “You won’t stay with me, but you’re always spotted with Nathan.” Cameron’s anger flared, his tone turning sinister. ‘Nathalie, don’t tell me you’ve developed feelings for him!”
“Ha, you should really know your limits. A guy like Nathan isn’t for someone like you to dream about! He’s just young and curious, driven by a conquest. Once he’s done, he’ll toss you aside without a second thought.”
Smack…
Nathalie slapped Cameron across the face, pouring all her strength into it. His cheek burned instantly.
She roared, “Cameron, you’re the last person with any right to call me washed up.” And then she spat out three more words, full of venom, “You’re a rapist.”
