Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 77

Nellie nibbled on her food, her gaze lazily drifting over to Cameron. “You, with your silver spoon life, dine on lobster and steak every day. You must be living the high life, huh?”

Cameron just rolled his eyes.

“Think you’re better than me?” Cameron grumbled under his breath.

Even though he mumbled, his words dripped with that high-and-mighty vibe, making Nellie frown.

She gave him a sharp look. “Am I missing a heart or an eye compared to you? Seriously, Cameron, we’re both human. Let’s keep it real—we’re equals. You’re not any better than me.”

Cameron was momentarily stunned before his expression darkened. “You’ve got quite the mouth. If you’re so independent, stop living off me.”

“I’m your wife, Cameron. I’m legally entitled to half of what you make. If you can’t handle me using your money, you’re welcome to divorce me,” Nellie shot back.

Cameron was fuming. He never thought the once meek Nellie would stand up for herself like this.

He could sense that Nellie was no longer someone he could easily control.

After finishing her breakfast, Nellie elegantly rose and left the dining room.

Cameron glanced at the mess left behind and snapped, “Nellie, clean up the table.”

Without looking back, Nellie replied, “I’m your wife, not the family maid. That’s what we have housekeepers for.”

“Don’t think I’ll put up with you forever just because of what you did for Greta,” Cameron warned, kicking the sofa leg in frustration. “If you can’t see where you stand, don’t expect me to hold onto the past. I might just divorce you. And then, don’t come crying to me.”

Nellie’s voice came back, unconcerned. “Cameron, who said I need your patience? If you’re fed up with me, then go ahead and divorce me.”
