Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 398

Nathalie chuckled. "Greta, I can't wait to see how this unfolds."

Out of nowhere, she pulled out a key and casually tossed it onto the bedside table. "Oh, this is the key to the Brown family estate. Thought I'd give it back to you."

Greta's eyes sparkled with surprise. "Are you actually being generous? After all the scheming you did to snatch it from me, why would you just hand it over?"

Nathalie watched her as if she were a bit dim. "Who said I'm giving the house back? I just upgraded to a smart lock, the kind with a peephole. This old key is pretty much useless now. Consider it a souvenir."

Greta's face turned an angry shade of green. "Nathalie, you're downright cruel. You connived your way into taking Dad's house, leaving our parents with nowhere to go."

Nathalie laughed, a sound full of amusement. "Greta, you've got it all wrong. It was you who refused to care for our sick dad, leaving it all to me. Dad felt guilty since he never treated me well and had to rely on me in his later years. So, he gave me the house as compensation."

"But you ditched Dad after getting the house..."

Nathalie looked even more wronged. "Was it me who abandoned Dad? Come on, Greta, it was you. After you married Cameron, you got all high and mighty, thinking becoming Mrs. Dawson would always have you in the limelight. You didn't want the bad rep of being awful to family and insisted on taking Dad back."

Nathalie fiddled with her nails. "Whether you wanted him or not, it was always about what was convenient for you. You're selfish to the core. But you forgot, karma's a real thing. You craved the life of the rich, but you will end up broke. You wanted Cameron's undivided love, even at the cost of others, but you will only lose it in the end."

Nathalie stood up, regal and commanding. "Greta, I can see your future—abandoned by everyone, dying alone and in poverty. Your body will be left in the wild, unclaimed."

Greta's face turned a ghastly shade of purple. "No, I’m the chosen one. I have parents and a husband who love me. I won't end up like that. Nathalie, what gives you the right to curse me?"
