Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 381

Nathalie figured Nathan might swipe her drink again, so she switched to juice instead. This time, Nathan left her drink alone.

It clicked for Nathalie—this was his way of protesting her drinking. So, she just quietly sipped her juice.

Cameron observed their unspoken exchange, feeling an odd pang of jealousy. He couldn't believe he was actually envious of Nathan. Nathalie, usually so prickly, seemed to soften around him.

"Hey, let's go check out the front," Cameron suggested, pulling Nathalie along and deliberately creating some distance between her and Nathan.

Suddenly, Nathan reached for Nathalie's hand. Cameron tugged on the other, and the pull was so intense that it hurt her a bit.

Nathan's hand was warm, enveloping hers with just the right amount of pressure, making her feel safe.

"Ms. Nathalie, I'm a huge fan of yours. Your fashion designs are incredible. Could I, as your fan, have the honor of a dance later?" Nathan asked with a charming smile.

Nathalie's expression froze. Was the future prince charming her biggest fan? If that were true, she'd be over the moon.

She was sure Nathan was just making excuses; he didn't like her hanging around Cameron because he knew Cameron was trouble.

Cameron yanked harder, causing Nathalie to stumble. Worried he might hurt her, Nathan quickly let go, helplessly watching as Cameron took her away.

Nathalie, annoyed, pulled away from Nathan. "You hurt me," she snapped.

Cameron glanced back, meeting her fiery gaze. He suddenly realized he'd been so focused on winning her over that he completely ignored her well-being.

Feeling a bit guilty, he apologized, "I'm sorry."
