Nathan was dead set on his goal. "Can't you see, Mr. Dawson? Miss Nellie is determined to get her hands on Timeless Cycle necklace. I reckon she'd jump at any offer I make."
He paused, his charming eyes glinting with mischief. "It doesn't matter if she's broke. Once the deal's done, her debts will naturally fall on you. After all, you're her lawful husband, aren't you?"
Cameron was livid, his face turning ghostly pale. He glared daggers at Nathan, but that devilish grin told him he was powerless to stop him. So, he turned his frustration towards Nellie. After all, she was easier to handle.
He barked at her, "I forbid you from making any deals with him."
Nellie was having none of Cameron's nonsense. "I want this locket, no matter the cost. It's a done deal."
Fear flickered in Cameron's eyes. "Have you lost it? What can you possibly trade with him? You've got no money, no property... just a face that's barely passable..." he almost shouted.
Nellie, cutting right to the chase, replied, "Cameron, you're my husband. Can you buy the locket for me?"
Cameron glanced at Greta, looking troubled.
Nellie mocked him, "Since you, as my husband, won't fulfill my wish, I'll have to make the deal myself. How I do it is none of your concern." Then, she left without a backward glance.
Cameron was left seething.
Three days later, Nellie showed up at the Rowland mansion as planned. Nathan was in his study, gazing at the locket in his hands, a tender smile playing in his eyes.
A servant came to announce, "Mr. Nathan, Mrs. Dawson would like to see you."
