Cameron said, “Benjamin and I have been friends since we were kids. Gavin has always treated me like family and wouldn’t turn his back on me when I'm in trouble. I’ll go to him and ask for a shot at partnering up. If I can promise him a big win, he’ll definitely be on board.”
Greta replied, “But isn’t he also Nathan’s dad?”
Having gone through this ordeal, Cameron seemed to gain some clarity. “Hmph, blood ties don’t hold a candle to profit, especially to a cheater.”
Greta’s face clouded over. The cheater, Nathan’s dad, was also Benjamin’s dad. But wasn’t Cameron following down the same path? Sensing Cameron’s shift towards being profit-driven made Greta uneasy.
Cameron showed up at the Rowland family mansion to visit Benjamin and Gavin but unexpectedly bumped into Nathan.
Both stopped in their tracks, quietly sizing each other up. There was a mix of scrutiny, doubt, and a bit of unspoken anger in the air.
“Cameron, if you’re banking on my dad or my worthless brother to help you out, you’re in for a letdown,” Nathan said.
Cameron stepped closer, glaring at Nathan. “Nathan, the Rowland family isn’t your personal fiefdom. You can’t call the shots for them.”
Despite the blatant disdain, Nathan remained remarkably calm. “Cameron, not everything is what it seems on the surface.”
Cameron’s eyes narrowed. He fancied himself a good judge of character with a sharp eye. Yet, here he was, feeling unexpectedly rattled by Nathan's mysterious vibe.
How could someone have such a clean-cut face and yet be so unreadable? Nathan clearly had more layers underneath his youthful appearance.
