Nellie turned her head, her eyes lighting up with enthusiasm. "Nathan, you couldn''t have picked a better time to show up. With all thismotion you''ve stirred up, Cameron might finally decide to divorce me."
Nathan shook his head. "I''m not sure it''s that simple. Even though he''s head over heels for your sister, he''s stubbornly refusing to divorce you..." He hesitated, lost in thought.
Nellie suddenly realized that Nathan wasn''t exactly the go-to guy for love advice. Pouring her heart out to him felt like ast-ditch effort when all else had failed.
Surprisingly, Nathan disyed wisdom beyond his years, continuing his assessment. "Cameron''s a businessman through and through. For him, marriage isn''t about feelings; it''s about what''s beneficial. Staying married to you is more advantageous than not. That''s the bottom line."
Nellie frowned, puzzled. "But to him, I''m just dead weight. Why would he want to keep me around?"
Nathan replied, "People in his position can''t afford any blemishes on their reputation. You''re the shining savior in his life; marrying you was his way of saying thanks. Divorcing you now would paint him as ungrateful. Plus, he''s scared someone might call him out for tricking a vulnerable woman into marriage. Once the dominoes start falling, his reputation will be in shambles."
Nellie''s eyes gleamed with a newfound determination. If she could bring Cameron down, she''d feel her life wasplete. "He''s a sneaky liar, but he won''t let himself get caught."
Nathan''s look turned intense. "Don''t worry. He may be crafty, but I''m a pro in this game. If he wants a battle of wits, I''ll make sure he loses big time."
Nellie didn''t know what Nathan had nned, but she had an unshakable faith that he could outsmart Cameron.
"Nathan, I can''t thank you enough," Nellie expressed her gratitude with a simple look.
Nathan, with a touch of concern, said, "From now on, I need you to put on a show. Make him choose between clearing his debts and divorcing you." Nellie immediately fell into character. "Nathan, my fate is in your hands. I''m ready to follow your lead."
Nathan chuckled, "Well, sorry for the trouble."
Their eyes met, and they shared a quiet smile.
Nellie knew her divorce battle with Cameron wouldn''t end quickly, but she couldn''t afford to let her career slide. She had to stay focused on her business.
"Nathan, I''m thinking of moving my Mn-based brand, ''Forever Yours,'' to the Capital..." she said earnestly, locking eyes with Nathan. "I want to coborate with you."
Understanding Nathan''s potential, she boldly added, "You''ll get the lion''s share of the profits."Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Nathan paused, repeating with curiosity, "Forever Yours?"
Then, a smile spread across his face. "What''s your n for this partnership?"
Nellie knew teaming up with Nathan, given his brilliant business sense, was like securing a golden ticket. She didn''t hesitate to lower her own stake. "Nathan, I''m Jasmine''s top student and can take the role of creative director. You''ll handle market expansion. As for profits, I''ll settle for just ten percent."
Nathan leaned in, his voice yful, "Nellie, ''Forever Yours'' has both our names on it. Why split the profits so narrowly? The earnings are yours. I''ll be the legal face, taking on all the risks for you."
