Reborn From Oblivion
Chapter 240

Nathan flashed a devilish grin, as if he already had a master plan brewing. "Why should I get into a direct confrontation with him? My prime years are way too valuable to waste on someone like that, wouldn't you agree?" His assistant looked puzzled. "If we don't spend time dealing with him, how do we expect to beat him?"

Nathan glanced at his assistant as if he was missing the obvious. With a quiet sigh, he patiently explained, "The Dawson family's got two heirs, and they're equally powerful. If they were allies, they'd be a force to reckon with. But if they become enemies, we could easily benefit from their fallout."

The assistant's eyes shone with admiration. "Mr. Nathan, you're a genius. Those Dawson brothers weren't raised together, so they probably don't have a tight bond. A little divide and conquer could easily set them against each other."

Nathan gave a nod of approval. "That's why you should start honing your skills in the art of persuasion. Whether we can drive a wedge between those brothers might just hinge on that talent."

The assistant puffed up with pride. "Mr. Griffin ditched his wife for a new flame, which has likely stirred up Cameron and his mother. With Cameron and his father's relationship already shaky, just a little push from me could shatter it completely." "I'll be waiting for your good news," Nathan said, leaning back into his office chair.

The assistant was caught off guard. "Mr. Nathan, you're just going to sit here and wait for my news?"

Nathan, without lifting his gaze, replied, "Is something wrong? Didn't you say it was going to be simple?"

The assistant felt a bit embarrassed. Even if it was simple, it still needed time and effort. Then, an idea struck him. "Oh, Mr. Nathan, Mr. Mason mentioned setting you up on a date. He booked your free time... I scheduled it for the weekend." "Cancel it," Nathan said, still not looking up.

"But Mr. Nathan," the assistant protested, "the lady Mr. Mason's introducing you to comes from a notable family. Can't you see his intent? He wants to replace you a supportive partner."

Nathan shot him a look. "Do I have to get married for business gains? Cancel it. I've got plans for the weekend."

The assistant, well-aware of Nathan's schedule, responded, "Mr. Nathan, after you meet with Ms. Nathalie on Saturday, your weekend's wide open."

Nathan replied, "I'm planning to spend the entire day with Nathalie."

The assistant was in a bind. "You're making it tough for me. How do I explain this to the old man?"

"Just be honest with him."

The assistant argued, "But Ms.

Venet

Nathalie is older and entirely career focused. Mr. Mason won't believe there's nothing going on between you two."

Nathan asked, "You think that too?"

The assistant blurted out, "Everyone thinks so. Even Ms. Nathalie herself."

Nathan's tone shifted to serious. "It's up to us to make it happen."

The assistant was dumbfounded. "Are you seriously pursuing Ms. Nathalie?" Nathan nodded slightly.

The assistant felt so awkward he wished he could disappear. "Mr. Nathan, I thought having Ms.

Nathalie as your girlfriend was just a business tactic."

"A business tactic?" Nathan was surprised.

"Yeah. If you and Ms. Nathalie were seen as a couple, your rivals would view it as a powerhouse alliance, making them think twice about messing with you."
