Reborn From Oblivion
Chapter 219

Kristina let out a soft sigh. "Your father wants a divorce. This time, he's serious. Cameron, I can't shield you anymore." Cameron was taken aback. "Why does Dad want to split up?"

Kristina felt a mix of irony and frustration bubbling up. "I've got a son who's thrown his life away. He's becoming the family's black sheep, with nothing left to offer. Your dad, ever the practical one, won't put up with dead weight in the family. So, he's kicking us out. First me,

and then it'll be your turn.

Cameron took a step back. "He can't be that ruthless, can he?"

Kristina let out a bitter laugh. "You think everyone's like you, guided by love and emotions."

Despair washed over Cameron's face.

Kristina couldn't stay harsh, and softened her tone, "I tried to get you half of the shares, but he shut me down. He said no, just like you did with Nathalie."

Cameron was stunned. It was like karma coming full circle.

Kristina continued, "I'm telling you this so you're ready for what's next. If your dad's feelings for you fade, he'll stop at nothing. I bet soon there'll be a lot of bad press about you and a lot of praise for your brother. Your dad's clearing the way for a new heir, and he'll trample over you to do it."

Cameron looked numb. He'd been so busy and worn out lately that he had no energy left to fight.

Kristina watched him helplessly. "Cameron, I know you're head over heels for Greta, and you can't imagine leaving her. I won't tell you to break up. But you need to know that your dad might freeze all your accounts soon, and then you won't have money for Greta's treatment. Without it, she won't hold up for long."

Cameron shivered, feeling the weight of reality.

Kristina finally got to the heart of it, "Cameron, staying with Greta isn't helping either of you. Maybe it's best if you send her abroad for treatment. That way, you can focus on work and pay for her medical bills What do you think?"

Cameron seemed conflicted.

Kristina pressed on, "Cameron, loving someone doesn't mean owning them. You're barely keeping it together yourself, so how can you ensure her happiness?"

After a long pause, Cameron nodded.

Kristina exhaled in relief.

Back in the hospital room. When Kristina returned, Cameron wasn't with her, Greta noticed Kristina come in alone, and realization dawned on her. Her face fell and tears started to flow.

"Where's Cameron? Why didn't he come back with you?" she cried, turning to Kristina.

"He's not coming back," Kristina said gently, standing by Greta's bed, watching her.

Greta broke down, "He's my husband! Why are you tearing us apart? He loves me, doesn't he?"

"But do you love him?" Kristina asked softly.

Greta was caught off guard, and after a moment, she stuttered, "Of course I love him. Why else would I marry him?"

Kristina replied, "You married him not out of love but because you relied on him."
