Chapter 29

Cameron came back to the Capital all by himself. When Griffin found out that Nellie hadn't come back with Cameron, he was absolutely livid. He unleashed his fury on Cameron. "I told you not to marry Nellie, but you went ahead anyway just to save your old flame. Now that you're married, you ought to make things work with Nellie and support each other like a proper couple should. Sure, Nellie's family background isn't great, but she's sweet and respectful, and we've accepted her. But you just had to get tangled up with her sister... You've really broken Nellie's heart. Is that why she wouldn't come back home with you?" Griffin's anger only intensified. "If Nellie doesn't come back, there's no point in you going to the Dawson family's annual banquet. It'll just spark gossip."

Griffin's wife Kristina was shaken. "Honey, Cameron will bring Nellie back. Just give him a little time."

Cameron was the only heir of the Dawson family, but that was only if he could keep the Dawson family business afloat. If he couldn't, a slew of illegitimate heirs might pop up to replace him. This was why Kristina was so worried about Griffin potentially barring Cameron from the banquet.

She tried to persuade Cameron. "Cameron, this year's event is a big deal. Our family is teaming up with the Rowland and McCoy families for a major alliance event. You have to go as the Dawson heir and meet the elders from the other two families. Once you get their approval, your career will take off. Cameron, you must do whatever it takes to get Nellie back."

Suddenly, Cameron opened the door, looking utterly defeated. "Mom, Nellie is missing."
