Greta nervously wrung her hands. "But Nellie and Nina are both gone. Cameron won't just let this go. He already
suspects me..."
“So what if he does?” her companion replied, unfazed. “He's got nothing on you. As long as you stick to your
story, time's on your side. Sooner or later, when he can't find any proof, he'll end up thinking he's wronged you-
his so-called savior. Won't that just make him even more guilty? When the moment's right, you can guilt-trip him
into marrying you. He won't be able to say no."
A grin broke across Greta's face. "You're right. That makes sense."
Listening from the shadows, Nathalie's face went pale with fury. Balling her fists, she stormed up to the heartless
director, swinging at him with all her strength.
"So you're the monster who killed Nina."
"You're the one who drugged me, keptsick and helpless..."
"| swear, you'll pay for everything you've done!"
But her fists just passed through him-she couldn't touch him at all.
The truth hit Nathalie hard: she was powerless here.

Yet in that feeling of not belonging, Nathalie found a surprising clarity.
Her hatred for Cameron, once overwhelming, suddenly felt less sharp—almost gentler. She even felt a flicker of
sympathy for him.
Sure, he'd made mistakes. He never really loved her in the beginning, which is why he let her donate her kidney
to his first love. But after that, he'd kept his promises. He fell for Nellie, stayed faithful, worked hard, took care of
his wife and daughter.
He hadn't caused their deaths-he was a victim too.
The real villains were the director, who'd sold his conscience and used tainted
needles on Nina, pumped her full of drugs. And Greta, pulling strings behind the curtain.
Those were the ones she should truly hate.
As for Cameron...
Nathalie was honest with herself for
once: if, after coming back to life, her memories had stayed clear-and it she'd married Cameron without always
plotting to run-would have eventually drifted away from

Greta and chosen his family, just like he did in this world?
But life rarely gives us "what ifs."
She and Cameron had ended up as strangers, barely able to look at each other. Maybe that was just fate.
