Reborn From Oblivion
Chapter 305

When he received the crushing news, it was like the wind got knocked out of him, making him hunch over in an instant.

Benjamin offered his advice. "Cameron, your mom's facing serious charges for intentional harm-she could end up in prison. If that happens, it could mess up your future big time. I think you should rush to your dad and the victims and beg them to write forgiveness letters. Maybe the court will agree to a private settlement. That's your best bet."

Cameron snapped back to reality, gave Benjamin a grateful nod, then bolted out of the room.

After asking around at the hospital, Cameron learned that all the injured people were taken to the Capital Cosmetic Hospital. It was close to the Dawson family mansion and was known for its top-notch treatment of injuries. Using the excuse of visiting his dad, Cameron asked the receptionist about Griffin's room and hurried there as fast as he could.

In the ward, Griffin lay there in just his boxers, his skin a mess of severe burns. His face was twisted in pain, and despite gritting his teeth, he couldn't stop the occasional moan.

Cameron stood frozen at the door, taken aback by his father's pitiful state.

"What do you want?" Griffin snapped when he saw Cameron.

Cameron approached, all business like he was negotiating a contract. "I need you to write a letter of forgiveness so my mom doesn't end up in jail."

Griffin, still fuming, shot back. "No way. She's out of her mind. Who knows what she'll do next if we don't lock her up." He talked about his ex-wife with nothing but contempt. Any past affection was long gone. Cameron's fists clenched, and his knuckles popped from the pressure.

Griffin noticed the anger in his eyes and toned it down, though his voice was laced with resignation.

"Cameron, you can't just think about your mom. You have to think about my safety, too. She hates me. If I help her, she won't be grateful to me; she'll come after me..."

His excuses were flimsy at best.

Cameron noted Griffin's coldness and any respect he had for his father vanished, replaced by pure disdain.

"If you don't help me, don't expect me to stay loyal to this family. I've been at Dawson International long enough to know how to hit where it hurts if you push me too far."

Griffin stared, clearly shocked that his own son would threaten him. "What are you going to do?" he demanded.

Cameron replied, "Dad, you've

always cared most about Dawson International's future. If I leak evidence of your tax evasion to the

media, imagine the chaos it'cause in the stock market."

Griffin never thought he'd be at odds with his son. His anger turned to a bitter laugh. "You're going against me? Cameron, it seems like your independence has gone to your head What makes you think you can take me on?”

Cameron's handsome face twisted with anger. "Are you really picking a fight with me?"

Griffin said, "You'll replace out soon enough that without me, you're nothing."

Cameron felt the sting of humiliation. "You're truly despicable. My mom's biggest mistake was ever meeting you."

Griffin smirked, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Considering she gave birth to a piece of work like you, meeting her was my misfortune."
