Reborn From Oblivion
Chapter 309

The boss' gaze towards Cameron shifted from admiration to clear disdain. Her attitude turned sour, and her words dripped with cold indifference. "A heart that betrays true love is worthless," she muttered, making sure Cameron could hear. His face darkened. Greta found the boss' passive-aggressive vibe unbearable and muttered under her breath, "What's her problem?"

Though she didn't speak loudly, the boss heard her. She ignored Greta, but her look at Cameron was full of pity. "I thought you had snagged a real catch, but it turns out it's just... this? And you left such a wonderful woman for her?"

If she knew that Nathalie and Cameron had once been married, she might have sighed even more for him. Cameron's once vibrant heart felt like a snowstorm had hit it.

He drowned his sorrows, glass after glass. He was usually a decent drinker but got drunk much quicker than usual. Greta tried to reason with him. "Cameron, please stop. This stuff isn't cheap, and we need to save money. Plus, it's not great for your health." The boss, bringing over more drinks, overheard and mocked Cameron. "You're drunk, and all she cares about is the cost. She doesn't even think to make you hangover breakfast. Were you out of your mind to leave the girl who'd do that for you?" Cameron kept his head down, silent, as his mind spun and his stomach burned. Yet, amidst the haze, memories of Nathalie's kindness flowed through his thoughts.

"Cameron, I know work can be tough. A drink to unwind is fine, but don't overdo it. Alcohol's bad for you."

"I made you some hangover breakfast. Please have some. Trust me."

Tears welled up in Cameron's eyes and then began to fall. Meanwhile, Greta was busy arguing with the boss. "What did you say to my husband to upset him so much?"

The boss just casually wiped the bar, "He's upset because he lost someone precious. What's that got to do with me?"

"I've never seen a boss like you. My

husband is a customer, and

customers are supposed to be

treated well. You should be

comforting him, not making things worse. Consider his bill as

compensation for his troubles."

Greta tried to drag Cameron out. Cameron shrugged her off, causing Greta to stumble to the ground. She looked up with hurt in her eyes. "Cameron, did you push me?"

For the first time, Cameron showed his fierce side. "Can you stop being so money-obsessed? You're selling your dignity for a few bucks. Aren't you ashamed?"

Greta got up, tears still on her face.

Her hands were on her hips as she yelled back,. "You think I'm embarrassing? You're an embarrassing husband. You can't earm enough and are making me scrimp and save. Now you're calling me embarrassing?"

Cameron stared at Greta. The once gentle and kind girl he knew now seemed to have lost her shine. With his illusions shattered, he began to question everything he believed in. Was he wrong all along?
