Nathan handed Nathalie's portfolio directly to Mason. "Grandpa, this is the design work my girlfriend, Nathalie, has been pouring her heart into for the past three months. Please take a look."
The move was sudden and without explanation, catching Cameron and Benjamin off guard and making them feel threatened like never before.
Benjamin, never one to keep quiet, burst out, "Nathan, what are you up to? First, you snatched the prime retail spot from Cameron, and now you're after the design team he wants? How can you be so ruthless?"
Mason paid no mind to their bickering. For this business mogul, skill trumped family ties every time. He took the portfolio, slipped on his reading glasses, and began to carefully leaf through it.
Benjamin wore a worried expression.
Cameron, on the other hand, kept his cool. "Nellie, do you really think your work can impress Mason? Don't make a fool of yourself here."
Benjamin was stunned. "Cameron, what did you call her? Nellie? How could she be Nellie?"
Nathalie, feeling exposed by Cameron's public reveal, felt her palms grow clammy with anxiety.
Nathan gazed at her with tenderness. For this sensitive and sharp girl to find the courage to stand up to Cameron, she must have faced some serious injustice.
He felt for her.
Nathan watched Nathalie with affection. "Cameron, you've got the wrong person. This is my girlfriend, Nathalie. She's not your sweet and naive ex-wife."
Cameron's jaw dropped. "She... is your girlfriend?"
