Reborn From Oblivion -
Chapter 180
Cameron's eyes usually looked dull and lifeless, but right now, there was a chilly, lonely glint in them. Greta dashed over, not even sparing a thought for Cameron's drunken state. Instead, she went straight for Nathalie, waving her arms dramatically. "Have you got no shame? You're divorced from him, so why are you all over him like this? What's your deal?"
Nathalie wasn't one to back down easily. She caught Greta's hand with ease and gave her a light shove, sending Greta sprawling onto the floor.
"Ouch."
Nathalie's push was gentle, but given Greta's fragile state, it felt like a disaster to her. Her cries of pain snapped Cameron out of his drunken fog, and he rushed to her side. "Greta, are you okay?"
Greta, pounding her fists on Cameron's chest in a jealous fit, actually looked a bit adorable. "Why are you with her?"
Cameron, feeling bad for her, wrapped her in his arms. "Greta, don't get the wrong idea. There's nothing between me and Nellie. I was just wasted, and the bartender misunderstood our relationship, so they called her to look after me." Greta was easily soothed by Cameron's words.
However, Nathalie wasn't having it. "Cameron, you need to update your emergency contacts. If a bartender calls me again, I won't be there."
When Greta heard Nathalie was Cameron's emergency contact, her jealousy flared up. "Cameron, why is she your emergency contact and not me? I'm your wife."
Cameron felt awkward admitting his
reasons in front of Nathalie. He fumbled with an explanation, "The bartender got it wrong. Let's just drop it okay? I'm not feeling well. Can you take me to the hospital?"
The two of them were a comical sight, staggering to their feet, arm in arm, looking quite cozy. As a
married couple, their closeness was nothing unusual. But their was cut short by an

guest.
Cameron's mom walked into the bar, saw them together, and was immediately furious. She marched over and pulled Greta away. "Don't touch my son." Kristina then took Cameron's arm, glaring at Greta. "What kind of behavior is this?"
Greta's lips trembled. "Ma'am, actually, Cameron and I have already..."
Before she could finish saying they were married, Cameron cut her off in a panic. "Oh, Mom, don't blame Greta. I was just in a bad mood, got drunk and the bartender
accidentally went through my phone and called you."
He tried to brush off the situation with a few words, but Nathalie's plan wasn't that easy to dodge.
She called out Cameron and dropped the bombshell, "Cameron, we're divorced. I don't have to take care of you anymore. From now on, your wife should be looking after you." Her eyes pointedly landed on the wedding ring on Greta's finger.
Kristina, being the sharp woman she was, immediately caught on to what Nathalie was hinting at. Cameron and Greta were married.
