Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 872

Lincoln felt like he'd been struck by lightning. He couldn't believe his ears as he stared at Morris. "You're Kelly's son? Really Kelly's son?" he stammered in disbelief.

Morris nodded. "Yes, Uncle."

Tears streamed down Lincoln's face as he sank onto the couch, overwhelmed.

"Can you take off your sunglasses so I can see your face?" he asked, his voice filled with emotion.

Nathalie quickly stepped in, covering Morris's eyes with her hand. "Dad, Nathan's eyes were injured; he can't handle bright light."

Her protective gesture warmed Morris's heart, but it nearly gave Lincoln a heart attack.

Lincoln's irritation at Nathalie's protectiveness quickly faded as he turned his full attention to Morris. "What's wrong with your eyes?" he demanded.

Nathalie explained, "When Nathan was a kid, he got kidnapped. Those people abused him, and that's why he has eye and leg problems."

Lincoln exploded with anger, cursing Gavin. "The Rowland family, with all their money and power, couldn't even keep a child safe. Your father is a disgrace. Couldn't he hire more bodyguards for you?"

Morris stayed calm. "That was a long time ago. No use dwelling on past mistakes."

Lincoln replied, "You're quite forgiving, always thinking of him."

Morris went silent.

Nathalie noticed Morris's fists were clenched tight, clearly holding back a storm of emotions.

She quickly changed the subject. "Dad, I'm taking Nathan upstairs to rest."

Lincoln's face was serious. "Go on." He waved them off reluctantly.

Nathalie guided Morris out of the room quickly.
