Cameron set his phone down, locking eyes with Greta. "Greta, he's your dad, and I can't just make decisions for you without thinking it through."
Greta clung to his hand, a hint of a pout on her lips. "But Cameron, you know our finances are tight. I'm worried that spending money on my dad will upset you."
Cameron lowered his gaze, his voice soft and weary. "Greta, it's your money. Whatever you choose to do with it, I won't stand in your way."
Greta's eyes widened in surprise. "Cameron, you're actually letting me use my own money?"
Cameron squeezed her hand gently. "I'm sorry, things have been a bit tight for me lately. I can't help out this time."
Greta was incredulous. "How's that possible? Didn't you pay two million for Nathalie's appearance at the celebration?"
Cameron clarified, "Oh, that was covered by the company."
Greta was skeptical. "Cameron, you're a top executive at Rowland Corporation now. Your salary can't be that low, can it?"
Cameron walked over to the side table, grabbed his salary contract, and handed it to Greta. "Here's the contract I signed with Rowland Corporation."
Greta eagerly flipped through it, only to find that Cameron was set to receive just one dollar for his first year, with bonuses dependent on his performance.
The disappointment was clear in her eyes. She had hoped she'd married into wealth, only to find Cameron was nearly broke. She muttered, "Cameron, what are we going to do? I spent all my money on a dress a few days ago. We're flat broke now."
Greta often left her problems to Cameron, knowing he couldn't bear to see her struggle, and would eventually step in to help.
"Return the dress," Cameron suggested, his voice cutting through her despair.
