Chapter 310
He suddenly lost all patience with her and stormed off. Greta hurried after him.
The bar owner followed them out, loudly griping, “Hey, you haven’t paid for the drinks yet! Who does that? Just go up and leave without settling the tab. Unbelievable! You two are quite the pair. No wonder Nellie dumped you. A character like you doesn’t deserve her
Cameron was mortified, feeling like he wanted to crawl into a hole. In frustration, he turned on Greta, saying, ‘Go pay for the drinks” Greta watched him squirm rather than square up. She had finally lost his respect
Tears welled up in Greta’s eyes. “Cameron, I don’t have any money
Cameron just stood there, speechless. The struggles of a broke couple were endless and exhausting. In the end, they both left, heads hung low.
At the hospital, Nathalie was busy taking care of Nathan, completely unaware of the chaos brewing outside.

as Nathan drifted into sleep, Mason barged into the room with Ashley in tow. Nathalie caught Mason’s fierce glare, and, a bit taken aback, she obliged by stepping outside with him.
Mason followed her out, leaving Ashley to watch over Nathan.
“Mr. Mason, Nathalie hesitated.
Mason’s stormy demeanor softened a touch. She knew how to navigate the situation.
“Ms. Nathalie, I hear my son Nathan got hurt because of you?”
Nathalie looked genuinely remorseful. “I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to drag him down.”
Mason cut straight to the chase. “Well, at least you know you’re a burden. To be frank, Nathan’s marriage isn’t his choice to make. I’ve already picked out a bride for him–Miss Ashley Stewart. She fell for Nathan at first sight. If all goes well, our families will unite through their marriage. Do you get what I’m saying?”
Nathalie nodded. “I get it, Chairman. Don’t worry, I have no intentions with Nathan…..”
But Mason wasn’t interested in her explanation. “I’ve seen this retreat–to–advance tactic before. Ms. Nathalie, I know you’ve got some skills, and you’ve been somewhat helpful to Nathan’s career. But compared to Miss Ashley’s status, your contributions are just a drop in the bucket. So, the Rowland family chooses Ashley. Please step out of Nathan’s life to prevent her from getting jealous.”
Nathalie went pale. She’d never thought about having a romantic link with Nathan, but she also never considered cutting him off completely. Nathan felt like family to her.
To Mason, her hesitation seemed like lingering affection, only making him more determined to break them apart and end Nathalie’s wishful thinking.
“Ms. Nathalie, I don’t want to be harsh. Maybe Nathan did show some fondness for you and even casually called you his girlfriend here and there. But please understand, he’s young and doesn’t really know what he wants in a relationship.”
Mason looked her in the eye, his words cold and cutting. “When faced with the choice between a Stewart girl and a divorced woman La man would know who to choose. Nathan will grow up, and his feelings will be replaced by logic. You
ant would you?”
