Chapter 163
Upon hearing about Cameron's setback with the McCoy family, Benjamin was so furious he shattered the cup
against the stone table. "How could Nathan pull something so underhanded? Our families are among the big four
financial powerhouses and have been in this together since our ancestors' days. We've always had each other's
backs, but he swoops in and snatches the prretail spot you had lined up. Cameron, don't worry, I've got your
back this time." Cameron beamed with relief. "With your solid support, the Rowland family's fashion design team
will be at my fingertips. The Dawson family products will earn their reputation. No prlocation is needed
because our sales will flow. But..."
Cameron's face clouded with worry. "I'm just concerned Nathan will find a way to throw a wrench in the works
again."
Benjamin sneered. "He might have sclout in the McCoy family, but in the Rowland family, he's nobody in my
dad's eyes. If he behaves, he gets scraps. If not, he's out on his ear."

Cameron exhaled slowly, feeling reassured.
But then Benjamin paused, suspicion creeping in. "Cameron, something's fishy. Why is Nathan gunning for you
specifically?"
It was a lightbulb moment for Cameron. He ran through all his encounters with Nathan and stumbled upon a
chilling realization. "Now that you point it out, | see it. The embarrassment he causedand stealing my prime
shop spot was no accident. It must've been deliberate."
"Why would he cross you? There's nothing in it for him," Benjamin puzzled.
Cameron replied, full of self-assurance, "What else could it be? It's got to be youthful arrogance. He's trying to
snatch the glory of my prodigy status."
Benjamin scoffed. "Everyone knows you're the real deal, Cameron. Nathan doesn't even have a mother. It's so
ridiculous."
With renewed enthusiasm, Benjamin urged, "Cameron, cwithto see my grandfather. Once he grants you
the Rowland family's core technology, Nathan won't stand a chance." Cameron nodded. "Alright."
Cameron never imagined that his biggest rival wouldn't be smarket-dominating business titan but his
humble ex-wife, whom he always underestimated.
Meanwhile, in a south-facing room on the third floor, Nathan stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing quietly
toward the gazebo.
"| feel like we're in for a tough fight today."
Nathalie stood beside him, resolute as ever. "If it means taking him down, I'll dive into any fire pit without a
second thought."
Nathan turned, silhouetted by the light, his tall, elegant figure like a supermodel. His face was shadowed his
voice a murmur. "Cameron is slick in business and

always uses perks to win ove and
partners. And the Rowland family folks? They're all about the benefits. To beat him, you've got to think outside
the box."
Nathalie was straightforward. Although she was successful in her overseas ventures, she relied on stellar service
and top-notch quality. Bribery was beneath her, something she found repulsive and refused to touch.
But losing to Cameron wasn't an option.
Suddenly, an idea struck her like lightning. Her eyes lit up as she looked at Nathan, a spark of brilliance dancing
in her gaze. Despite Cameron's tricks, Nathan
had outsmarted him before.
This meant Nathan's wit and strategy were a cut above Cameron's.
"Nathan, you've got to have a plan to beat him," she pleaded, tugging at Nathan's sleeve, her eyes twinkling
with a clever innocence that was as disarming as a child asking for candy.
