Chapter 145

Cameron might have technically won, but it sure didn't feel like it. He managed to keep his assets intact, but the victory seemed hollow.

Greta and Kristina were over the moon, their cheers and high-fives echoing around them. Greta, unable to resist, approached Nellie with a faux-sympathetic smile, saying, "Nel, I told you, didn't I?
