Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 28

Cameron felt like he'd been thrown into an icy abyss.

Yeah, he wasn't exactly husband-of-the-year material. If Nellie didn't reach out, he wouldn't bother either. Around her, he had this natural air of superiority.

He stumbled away from the federal building, catching snippets of people mocking him inside. "What a jerk. How could his wife ever love such a heartless guy?"

Cameron's heart skipped a beat, guilt washing over him for the first time. He had let Nellie down.

"Nellie, I'm sorry."

"Where are you?"

Life's ups and downs aren't always shared.

Meanwhile, over in Milan, Nellie was riding a wave of happiness. That day, her mentor called her into the office with some exciting news.

"Nathalie, I've entered you into the 24th Global Fashion Festival's New Talent Competition. Get ready. I believe you can achieve great things."

Nellie felt a rush of excitement. This competition wasn't just any event. It was a chance to catch the eye of fashion moguls. Winning could mean getting mentored by Jasmine, the shining star of the fashion world.

Jasmine was a trailblazer in luxury fashion, having founded a global brand and achieving massive success. She was one of the top ten influential women globally and a philanthropist to boot.

Nellie had crossed paths with her once, but that was a memory she'd rather not revisit.

Back then, as Cameron's official girlfriend, she tagged along to a grand banquet. Because of Cameron's cold indifference, she hadn't prepared a proper gown, making her the laughingstock among the high-society crowd.

People whispered behind her back, calling her nothing more than Cameron's loyal pet.
