Reborn From Oblivion by Christia Muray

Chapter 260

Nathan's eyes were as sharp as a hawk's. "I need to see Nathalie. If she's doing well-eating and sleeping okay-then I'll believe what you say. But, Cameron, if you dare lay a finger on her, I swear you'll regret it." Cameron studied Nathan for a moment, then chuckled softly. "Oh, Nathan, who are you trying to fool with this act? Why can't you cut ties with Regan if you care about her so much?"

Nathan was firm. "Cameron, I promised you I'd walk away from Regan, and I've kept my word."

Cameron looked taken aback. "That's hard to believe. If you've already turned down the Stewart family, why would they still refuse my offer?"

Nathan's eyes darted around, searching for any sign of Nathalie. "I've stuck to my promise and ditched the deal. Why they won't work with you is your problem. Cameron, isn't it about time you kept your word? Let Nathalie go home." Cameron paused, then gave a knowing look to the maid, who nodded and headed upstairs.

She entered the room where Nathalie was held, knife in hand, to cut the ropes binding her. As she removed the gag from Nathalie's mouth, she warned, "Ms. Nathalie, be careful with your words. Mr. Cameron only invited you here as a guest and hasn't harmed you. Even if you make claims, there's no proof, and no one will believe you."

Nathalie gave a chilling smile. "Thanks for the tip."

In a flash, she grabbed the maid's hand, plunging the knife into her own abdomen, arms, and chest...

The maid screamed in horror.
