Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 163

Upon hearing about Cameron's setback with the McCoy family, Benjamin was so furious he shattered the cup against the stone table. "How could Nathan pull something so underhanded? Our families are among the big four financial powerhouses and have been in this together since our ancestors' days. We’ve always had each other’s backs, but he swoops in and snatches the prime retail spot you had lined up. Cameron, don’t worry, I've got your back this time."

Cameron beamed with relief. "With your solid support, the Rowland family's fashion design team will be at my fingertips. The Dawson family products will earn their reputation. No prime location is needed because our sales will flow. But..."

Cameron's face clouded with worry. "I'm just concerned Nathan will find a way to throw a wrench in the works again."

Benjamin sneered. "He might have some clout in the McCoy family, but in the Rowland family, he's nobody in my dad’s eyes. If he behaves, he gets scraps. If not, he’s out on his ear."

Cameron exhaled slowly, feeling reassured.

But then Benjamin paused, suspicion creeping in. "Cameron, something’s fishy. Why is Nathan gunning for you specifically?"

It was a lightbulb moment for Cameron. He ran through all his encounters with Nathan and stumbled upon a chilling realization. "Now that you point it out, I see it. The embarrassment he caused me and stealing my prime shop spot was no accident. It must’ve been deliberate."

"Why would he cross you? There's nothing in it for him," Benjamin puzzled.

Cameron replied, full of self-assurance, "What else could it be? It's got to be youthful arrogance. He’s trying to snatch the glory of my prodigy status."

Benjamin scoffed. "Everyone knows you're the real deal, Cameron. Nathan doesn’t even have a mother. It's so ridiculous."

With renewed enthusiasm, Benjamin urged, "Cameron, come with me to see my grandfather. Once he grants you the Rowland family's core technology, Nathan won't stand a chance."
