Reborn From Oblivion
Chapter 148

Greta saw the steely resolve in Kristina's eyes and dropped to her knees with a thud. "Kristina, Cameron and I truly love each other. And I'm carrying his child. We can't live without him..." "Get rid of it," Kristina said, her voice icy.

It was like the world had crumbled around Greta, leaving her in shock. She stared at Kristina in disbelief. "But that's the Dawson family's first grandson. Kristina, haven't you always dreamed of having a grandchild?" Kristina's expression didn't change. "Anyone else can give birth to the Dawson heir, just not you."

Greta felt as if she'd been struck hard.

"Greta, I've arranged for you to go to St. Peter's Hospital. You need to have the procedure soon, or don't blame me for cutting ties," Kristina said firmly before walking away.

Greta wept, overwhelmed by despair. She felt utterly helpless, desperate, panicked, and terrified. Right now, she wasn't the proud woman she once was. She realized she had lost this battle and was completely defeated. "Nellie, this is all your fault. I'll never forgive you," she spat out, seething with anger.

That evening, Cameron trudged back to the Dawson family mansion, each step heavy. The company was facing a slew of problems, and he needed to consult with Griffin.

Griffin was absent, and only Kristina sat alone on the couch, looking worn out and pale, clearly having not rested well.

Cameron sat beside Kristina, trying to strike up a casual chat. "Mom, where's Dad?"

Kristina barely lifted her eyelids, disappointment etched in her gaze. She chose not to answer, instead closing her eyes.

Cameron was taken aback. His usually loving and doting mother had never been so cold. He turned to the nanny, who sighed and shared shocking news. "Mr. Cameron, a few days ago, Mr. Dawson and Mrs. Dawson had a fight, and he even hit her. Since then, he hasn't come home."

Cameron was stunned. "Why would Dad hit Mom?" he asked indignantly.

From his perspective, after all of Griffin's affairs and the pain Kristina had endured, his father should have been treating her with kindness and care.

Kristina suddenly opened her eyes

and yelled, "Why? Because I have a son who's a disappointment. That's why! That woman's son succeeds, and she gets all the glory. But my son fails, and your dad wants to kick me out..."

Cameron stood frozen. "Dad wants to divorce you?"

Kristina hit Cameron with a flurry of slaps, her anger boiling over. "All

because of you, you

good-for-nothing! You had

everything going for you, but you

had to get tangled up in that mess."

QUMS

"To save Greta, you tricked Nellie... Now, Nellie's exacted her revenge, leaving you disgraced. Your father's done with you, and he's taking it out on me. Our good days are over."

Cameron felt a deep sense of guilt; his proud mother had never been so broken. "Mom, don't worry. I'll replace a way to fix my reputation."

Kristina's voice was weak but firm. "The only way to clear your name and prove your innocence is to cut Greta off completely." Cameron felt the sting of those words, his eyes narrowing in determination.
