Chapter 119

Nellie turned her head, her eyes lighting up with enthusiasm. "Nathan, you couldn't have picked a better time to show up. With all this commotion you've stirred up, Cameron might finally decide to divorce me."

Nathan shook his head. "I'm not sure it's that simple. Even though he's head over heels for your sister, he's stubbornly refusing to divorce you..." He hesitated, lost in thought.

Nellie suddenly realized that Nathan wasn't exactly the go-to guy for love advice. Pouring her heart out to him felt like a last-ditch effort when all else had failed.

Surprisingly, Nathan displayed wisdom beyond his years, continuing his assessment. "Cameron's a businessman through and through. For him, marriage isn't about feelings; it's about what's beneficial. Staying married to you is more advantageous than not. That's the bottom line."

Nellie frowned, puzzled. "But to him, I'm just dead weight. Why would he want to keep me around?"

Nathan replied, "People in his position can't afford any blemishes on their reputation. You're the shining savior in his life; marrying you was his way of saying thanks. Divorcing you now would paint him as ungrateful. Plus, he's scared someone might call him out for tricking a vulnerable woman into marriage. Once the dominoes start falling, his reputation will be in shambles."
