Chapter 85

Cameron's pen slipped from his fingers, landing with a soft thud on the desk. His chest rose and fell unevenly, emotions simmering beneath the surface. "Who is this guy?" he demanded. Whether or not Nellie had actually been unfaithful didn't matter to Cameron. Just the sight of her getting too cozy with another man was enough to bruise his ego.

Miranda chimed in, "I don't know his name, but I can tell you he's tall, slim, and is always wearing sunglasses. He had on a Givenchy suit and a diamond watch that screamed money. He was super protective of Nellie. I just messed with her hair a little, and he went nuts and shoved me away. It's obvious he really cares about her."

Cameron's expression turned stormy. He might not have cherished Nellie, but the idea of another man stepping in and doing what he, as her husband, should have been doing, stirred a burning jealousy inside him.

Miranda watched Cameron closely. "You know, Cameron, this guy looks like he's got money and status, and he's pretty easy on the eyes. He's got a demeanor as powerful as yours."

Her last words lit a fuse in him. "And get this, he's even willing to look after me for Nellie... It sure seems like Nellie feels something for him too."

That was the last straw. Cameron erupted, sending a glass flying off his desk. He might not have loved Nellie, but his pride couldn't handle the thought of her betraying him emotionally. "Nellie, if you ever cheat on me. I won't forgive you," he growled, seething with anger.

Funny, though, how he ignored the fact that he was the one who first betrayed their relationship.
