Chapter 162
Frankie chimed in, "Cameron, since Nathan cto us with a request, we can't possibly let him down. He's the
only gift our beloved daughter left us. We hope you understand."
Since the situation was laid out so plainly, Cameron knew it would be in poor taste to push any further, so he left,
feeling disappointed. He left the McCoy estate in a bit of a slump.
If his luxury brand couldn't land a spot in the McCoy family's building, it would be seen as a step down. He'd
have to go for more budget-friendly pricing, and starting off on a limited note like that would make the journey
ahead even tougher. Unless, of course, he could snag the top-notch production team from the Rowland family to
give his brand a boost.
On the other hand, Nathalie left the McCoy estate with a heavy heart. By the tNathan made it back to her
studio, he found her slumped over her computer desk, looking distant and lost.
"What's up?" Nathan asked, sitting across from her. He reached out to feel her forehead, making sure she wasn't

Nathalie looked up, her deep brown eyes filled with regret. "Nathan, | didn't make a great impression earlier. Mrs.
McCoy didn't even check out my work and just sentaway."
Nathan couldn't help but laugh a little. His grandmother, born into a family with generations of business savvy,
had a knack for commerce that was hard to beat. But she had one Achilles' heel-her boundless love for her
daughter.
After her daughter passed away at a young age, Frankie always blamed herself, thinking it was her absence that
led her daughter to be swayed by a no-good man, ending in her untimely death. Frankie poured all her unspent
love and guilt onto Nathan. For Nathan, she was always ready to grant any wish.
"Nathalie, talked to Grandma for
you. She actually praised your work for its depth and meaning and decided to give you full rights to the prime
retail space at our mall."

The news hit Nathalie like a whirlwind, leaving her teary-eyed and laughing all at once. "I got the green light
from her! | must be on a lucky streak."
Nathan gently wiped her tears away. "We've just scored the hottest retail spot. Now we need to lock in the best
production team in the fashion industry."
Nathalie nodded. "I've heard the
Rowland family's got the best sewing and ironing skills in The Capital. But your dad's got a soft spot for
Benjamin, so how would he
ever let us have those res?"

Nathan smirked. "Benjamin's just a lost cause. If the Rowland family's core business lands in his hands, it'll

Nathalie immediately caught on. "If Cameron gets that exclusive
authorization from the Rowland family, he'll definitely make a
comeback. | can't let that happen.”

Nathan grinned. "That's why you must get ready and cto the Rowland family estate with me."
Being the workaholic she is, Nathalie slung her laptop bag over her shoulder and was ready to roll.
"Let's do this."
Meanwhile, over at the Rowland family's estate, in their garden pavilion, Benjamin and Cameron sat sipping tea
while the elegant maids attended to them with grace.
