designer."
Lizzy chuckled, "She's been hustling to build her business empire over the last couple of years. It's been tough, but she's definitely made a name for herself. Now, she's a big deal in the fashion world, and all sorts of luxury brands are lining up to have her as their chief Nathan mumbled, "She must've had a rough time, huh?"
The thought of Nellie getting by with just one kidney tugged at his heartstrings.
Lizzy added, "You know she's got her own demons. Her marriage to Cameron is a hurdle she just can't seem to get past."
Nathan, with a dark resolve, said, "Let her know that their marriage is done."
Then, he left dramatically.
Lizzy was left speechless. Could Nathan possibly take on someone as powerful as Cameron?
On his way back, Nathan ran into Benjamin.
Benjamin tossed him a gift box. "Nathan, here's a present from Mom and Dad."
Nathan took the box, his sharp gaze catching the mischievous grin on Benjamin's face.
He opened the gift right there and found a suit inside. The fabric was wrinkled, and the seams were shoddily stitched-a clear piece of junk.
Benjamin, still asking for trouble, said, "Nathan, Dad wanted you to know he picked this suit just for you. You should wear it to your birthday ceremony to make him happy." Benjamin's sleazy laugh made Nathan's stomach churn.
Without a second thought, he tossed the suit into a trash bin. "This suit might fit his taste, but it sure doesn't fit mine."
Benjamin snapped. "Nathan, don't be ungrateful. If you toss this suit, you won't have anything better to wear for the ceremony."
Nathan kept his temper in check. He replied coolly, "Benjamin, what I wear to my birthday party is none of your business." Benjamin's face turned awkward as his plan seemed to have been seen through.
Nathan left with purpose, carrying Nellie's package.
Back in his room, Nathan carefully opened the gift box. The suit and accessories inside left him stunned.
There was a note detailing the origin of the fabric, the story behind the accessories, and their price.
Nathan chuckled.
His father's gift looked incredibly cheap next to Nellie's meticulously crafted suit.
The so-called fatherly love seemed laughable.
Nathan gently touched the soft fabric, but the smile in his eyes slowly faded.
"Silly girl, you work all night to make me a suit. What about your health?"
Nathan's birthday celebration rolled around as planned.
The venue was set at the Rowland family's clubhouse. Mason was under the weather, so he handed over the whole celebration to
Nathan's biological father, who net
having moved on with a new love, left the planning to Nathan's stepmother Paige without a care.
The wicked stepmother had no intention of going out of her way for the thorn in her side. She blew through a massive budget, leaving only scraps for the staff to work with.
