Cameron said, "I bought her Timeless Cycle."
Greta's eyes went wide. "Timeless Cycle?"
Cameron nodded. "Yep."
Greta's anxiety was barely hidden. "Cameron, we're barely making ends meet. Where did you find the money for Timeless Cycle?"
Cameron frowned, clearly annoyed by her question.
Nathalie chuckled. "Greta, you're just a regular gal, but your man, he's from a whole different world. When you say 'broke,' you mean it. For him, 'broke' might just mean his bank account's a little low. If he shuffles some assets around and tightens his belt, he could probably scrape up a few million."
Greta shivered. "Cameron, are you really going to sell our house and dig us into debt for a necklace?"
Cameron's voice turned icy. "My business is none of your concern."
Greta slumped to the floor.
Cameron was clearly uncomfortable. He helped Greta to her feet, sighing, "Don't be such a worrywart. We will make more money."
Greta was from a humble background, and couldn't muster such boldness. She was just nervous, anxious, and uneasy.
"Cameron, you're in a tough spot right now. Getting back on your feet won't be easy."
"Don't you trust me?" Cameron's voice carried a hint of anger.
Greta didn't dare to say more.
Nathalie watched the scene unfold with a bit of delight. The couple, who once faced everything together, were now being sharpened by life's ups and downs, using their sharp edges against each other.
