Chapter 222
Cameron locked eyes with her. "Nathalie, what if I told you I regret everything? I regret divorcing you and losing the one person who loved me so deeply. Would you find it in your heart to forgive me and come back to me?" Nathalie felt as if she'd swallowed something vile. She was utterly disgusted.
"Cameron, isn't it true you're still a married man? Unlike my sister, I won't play the other woman," she replied, her voice tight with anger.
Cameron was taken aback but still had the audacity to say, "Don't worry, my marriage with your sister is on its last legs. It's only a matter of time before we officially divorce."
Nathalie shot back, "Cameron, if you had truly loved her for a lifetime, I would have respected you as a man of true devotion. But to think that once you had her, your once-beloved turned into nothing but a pesky annoyance. Are you just like everyone else? Did you get tired of your own wife?"
Cameron's expression was pained. "No, that's not it. I've only now realized that the person who loved me most in this world was you. Losing you is my biggest regret."
Nathalie frowned. "You don't regret losing me. You regret that marrying Greta cost you your bright future. You've only now realized that even cherished memories can turn sour. Being with Greta led to your downfall, and you've finally seen that her love isn't as pure as mine was. Her love came with strings attached. Now, you regret giving up something truly precious for her."
"And yet, this 'nuisance' you discarded is thriving. Not only have I become confident and open-minded, but what's worse for you, I'm now helping your arch-enemy run his company to easily outsmart you.
"Looking back, you've realized you traded something great for something insignificant. That's why you're shamelessly back here, begging."
Nathalie's patience wore thin. "But Cameron, what makes you think I'd want you back? A man who's tainted doesn't deserve to be by my side." "You'll regret this." Cameron said, his fists clenched in anger.
Nathalie grinned smugly, "Regrets? Cameron, haven't you realized yet? You're no longer the esteemed Mr. Cameron. Now, you're broke, abandoned by Dawson International, with a sick wife and a paralyzed father-in-law weighing you down. Your life is worse than a beggar's."
A beggar?Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Cameron, who once looked down Nathalie for her tough upbringing and struggle for survival, felt deeply insulted when she called hera beggar.
"I'm no beggar," Cameron roared.
Nathalie looked at him like he was a joke. "You will be soon enough."
She said it with absolute certainty.
Cameron felt an unexpected chill. "Nathalie, be honest, is this all your doing?"
"Yes," she confessed without hesitation.
Cameron's face went pale, and in anger, he grabbed her wrist, shouting, "Why would you do this to me?" Nathalie replied, "Every action has its consequence. Cameron, why are you acting so innocent?"
Cameron's face twisted with pain. "I know I might have hurt you before, but Nathalie, I supported you for years, even at the expense of one of your kidneys. Doesn't that count for something? What's with this
relentless revenge? Why do you hate me so much?"
