Chapter 379

Cameron had already slipped into the bathroom. He heard Greta's questioning loud and clear but chose to ignore it, turning on the shower to let the sound of water drown everything out.

Greta, clutching her dress, returned to her room, feeling totally deflated. She sat on the bed staring into space for a while but soon managed to pull herself together, reassuring herself, "Cameron's just working for the Rowland family now. You've got to cut him some slack. He doesn't mean to be distant."

Her phone suddenly lit up with a notification from an app, grabbing her attention. Nathalie had posted an update-something that rarely happened. Curious, Greta opened the app to find Nathalie flaunting a payment receipt for a whopping two million. Nathalie had captioned it: [Someone paid me an appearance fee for their gala. Easiest money ever?]

Greta's eyes widened. "A gala?" Could it be the same one Cameron was attending? Was Nathalie going to be there too? Being naturally perceptive, Greta connected the dots between Cameron and Nathalie's simultaneous travels and attendance at the party. It was hard not to suspect that Nathalie was the one accompanying Cameron.

In a rush, Greta headed downstairs, where Cameron's phone lay on the sofa. She picked it up and checked his social media. The chat logs between Cameron and Nathalie were squeaky clean. Greta breathed a small sigh of relief. But then she opened his banking app- Cameron hadn't changed his password-and quickly found a transaction for two million. The recipient was marked with an asterisk.
