Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 289

Greta clenched her jaw, not caring anymore whether Miranda held any value for her. Nathalie's humiliating taunts had her blood boiling.

Nathalie pushed further. "Silent treatment, huh? Is that your way of agreeing? I knew it—so long as there was even a sliver of usefulness left in Mom, you'd never let her go, Greta."

Nathalie raised an eyebrow, a devilish grin spreading across her face. "You're a natural-born leech, after all. You won't be happy until you've sucked everyone around you dry."

A leech?

Cameron was suddenly reminded of something Kristina had said about Greta. He could dismiss it as bias if one person called her a parasite, but if two people said it, he couldn't help but stop and think.

He reflected on Greta's past behavior. She had constantly demanded from Miranda and Patrick. However, when Patrick was bedridden, she couldn't bring herself to clean him. And when Miranda genuinely reached out for help, Greta hesitated, almost as if she were dodging the duty of caring for her.

Cameron didn’t want to doubt the woman he loved so deeply. It felt like admitting Greta’s flaws would only highlight his own poor judgment. He resisted accepting that Greta might be a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

So, he chose to give her another shot. To test her once more.

Cameron made a firm decision. "Greta, your mom wants to come home. So, let’s take her home."

Greta had no choice but to agree, albeit stiffly. "Alright."

And with that, Greta wheeled Miranda away.

Before leaving, Cameron's eyes lingered on Nathalie, who watched him leave. Her gaze was no longer gentle. In the depths of her eyes, there was only rampant mockery and deep scheming.

"Cameron, do you really know the person sleeping next to you? Is she really worth your love?"

"I must've remembered wrong," he said casually.

Greta let out a sigh of relief.

He held Timeless Cycle, but for some reason, it no longer gave off any energy. Cameron didn’t have any more strange dreams.

Before he knew it, Justin’s birthday rolled around.

The party was held at the Dawson family's estate, a vast property sprawling over several hundred acres. The place was lush with trees and winding streams, adding an air of mystery.

The Dawson family had gone all out for the birthday bash, rolling out a red carpet to the entrance and creating a festive vibe everywhere.
