Reborn From Oblivion

Nellie said, "Oh, you can reply for me then."

Nathan quickly tapped out a message: [Who let the dog out? Maybe you should go back and learn some manners from your English teacher on how to ask for a favor.]

Cameron got Nellie's text while he was having dinner with a few of his closest friends. The vibe was lively. One of them teased, "Cameron, I heard your father wants you to bring Nellie back. Planning a trip overseas soon?" "I've been busy. She'll manage on her own," Cameron replied, sounding unbothered.

"Dude, you've left her abroad for half a year without a peep. What if she's ticked off and doesn't come back?"

Cameron was all confidence. "She's easy to win over."

Laughter rippled around the table.

"True that, Nellie is totally smitten with Cameron. If he asked for her kidney, she'd probably give it without blinking."

"Ha!"

When Cameron's assistant's phone chimed with a message, his face lit up as he announced, "Mr. Dawson, it's a text from your wife."Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

The buddy who'd been teasing him about losing Nellie looked unimpressed. "Old habits die hard. Nellie can't help but fawn over Cameron." Cameron lit a cigarette, a smug smile on his face.

Greta chimed in, "You guys just don't get girls. They act all dramatic and pick fights just to grab your attention. My sister's had a tough upbringing, so a bit of kindness from Cameron, and she's clinging to him like a lifeline. She's not going anywhere." When Cameron opened Nathan's message, the bold word "SCRAM" made his expression darken like a storm cloud. He read the last bit of Nellie's message, and it almost sent him over the edge.

The room suddenly felt tense and stifling as everyone sensed the brewing trouble.

"Cameron, who ticked you off?" a friend leaned in to sneak a peek at the screen.

Reading the message, his friend nearly freaked out, "Wow, is this really from Nellie? I've never seen anyone dare to sass you like this. Is she asking for trouble?"

Everyone exchanged shocked glances.

"Nellie actually threatened you?"

"Wow, she's getting gutsy, huh?"

"This is gonna be interesting."

Cameron tossed the phone on the table, his face turning an unhealthy shade of green, "No way she'd dare talk to me like that. Someone must've hijacked Nellie's number and sent this..."

The assistant picked up his phone, puzzled by the profile picture, "But this is definitely your wife's number. Although, the tone does sound like a guy..."

Greta's eyes widened. "Could it be that Nel found herself a boyfriend abroad?"

Cameron refused to believe Nellie would betray him, "She wouldn't dare..."

Suddenly, Matt noticed something odd, "Weird, why has she changed her name to Nathalie?"

A particularly imaginative friend remarked, "Nellie even changed her name. Is she really cutting ties with the past?"

Cameron remained arrogantly confident, "She won't leave me. She loves me too much to hurt me."

His eyes settled on the social media app, deciding, "Her account must have got hacked."
