Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 280

Nathan sighed, "My grandfather insists I represent the Rowland family at Mr. Justin's birthday bash."

Nathalie raised an eyebrow. "So, you want me to whip up an outfit for you?"

Nathan just sighed again. He grumbled, "Nathalie, you know how dull those rich kids' parties are. They only care about showing off their cars, mansions, or dates. I’ve got none of that, and I'll just end up as the butt of their jokes."

Nathalie remembered her past life as the overlooked Mrs. Dawson. She was always bullied at such gatherings. It was a bitter memory. She couldn't stand the idea of Nathan going through the same ordeal.

"I'll splurge and get you a Silver Phantom," Nathalie declared with determination.

Nathan was taken aback. He could totally afford a car. He planned on filling his garage one day anyway.

Nathan swallowed hard. "But garage fees are steep. Pretending to be rich could backfire on us, right?"

Nathalie caught his drift. "We might not outshine them with fancy cars or houses, but I can definitely hold my own as your date, right?"

Nathan chuckled and laid it on thick, "Great plan. Nathalie, you have radiant skin, gorgeous looks, and those long legs, not to mention you were Jasmine's star protégé and are a trendsetter. If you come with me, they'd all be green with envy."

Nathalie hesitated. "Do you think I can do it?"

Deep down, she was insecure, having been undermined by her family’s manipulative tactics for too long. The whispers about her being a once-married woman had shaken her confidence.

Nathan looked her in the eye. "Why wouldn't you be?"

Nathalie found herself lost in Nathan's reassuring gaze. "Alright, I’ll give it a shot."
