Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 332

"Cameron, it's all my fault. If only I were healthier, maybe your mom wouldn't be so against having me as her daughter-in-law," she sobbed, tears streaming down her face.

In the past, Cameron would have been in a frenzy at the sight of Greta’s tears, ready to do whatever it took to make her feel better. But today, he was unmoved by Greta's crying. He snapped, "What's the point of crying? We need to figure out how to get my mom back. I can't let anything happen to her."

Greta's face went pale. It took her a moment before she muttered softly, "Oh, okay."

Around noon, Nathalie caught a quick nap. When she came to, Nathan was nowhere in sight.

A nurse came by to remove her IV, shaking her head at Nathalie's earlier comments about Nathan. "Your boyfriend really cares about you. While you were out, he was holding your hand the whole time, and his eyes were all red like he'd been crying."

"He doesn't seem like the jerk you made him out to be. The way he looks at you is so full of love... it's just that he's a bit standoffish and hard to get close to."

Nathalie nearly choked on her own surprise. "No, I got it wrong. I woke up this morning and thought my ex-husband brought me here, so I said those silly things..."

"It was actually my friend who looked after me. He's nothing like my lousy ex. He's kind, gentle, and really knows how to take care of people. Not to mention, he's handsome and really good at what he does. There isn't a flaw on him."

The nurse's face lit up with admiration. "Nathalie, if your friend is that amazing, can I try to win him over?"

All her life, Nathalie had longed for someone to truly love her, but Cameron had wrecked that dream. Now, she pinned her hopes on Nathan, wishing he could find a girl who would love and cherish him.

Nathan walked over and pulled up a chair. "Sorry, I've decided to focus on my studies for a while. After I finish college, I’m planning to go for a Master's and then a Ph.D.," he said.

Nathalie was taken aback, reaching out to feel his forehead. "Are you feeling okay? What's with the sudden decision?"

To her, education was a way for kids from modest backgrounds to get ahead. For someone like Nathan, with a family business waiting, diving into the real world after college seemed far more practical than chasing more degrees.
