Cameron's face went pale as he quietly but intensely whispered to Nellie, "Nellie, your sister is seriously ill, and not only are you indifferent to her condition, but you're also trying to take me away. Who will care for her if I leave? Do you actually want her to die?"
Nellie furrowed her brows, responding, "You're not a doctor, nor are you her closest family. I fail to see how your presence here benefits my sister's health in any way."
Greta, overwhelmed with emotion, burst into tears. "I see it now, Nel. You're here to take Cameron from me. I can't stand a chance as the sick one, so just take him."
"I'm not leaving you, Greta. Don't cry." Cameron turned back to Nellie, his voice laced with anger. "Nellie, how can you be so cold-hearted?"
Nellie chuckled at Cameron's double standards.
There was a time when she was burning up with a fever, and Cameron left her to go hiking and watch the sunrise with Greta. When she tearfully confronted him about his indifference, he snapped, "Nellie, I'm not a doctor. Coming to me when you're ill is pointless."
Nellie spoke clearly, emphasizing each word, "Cameron, when I had a fever, when I had a kidney transplant surgery, and when I..."
When she was in labor...
"Where were you?"
Confronted with Nellie's accusations, Cameron felt a pang of guilt. He murmured, "I know I neglected you before, but it won't happen again."
"Cameron, there’s no future for you and me," Nellie said firmly, turning on her heel and walking away.
Cameron stood there, bewildered, her words echoing in his mind: what did she mean by having no future together?
As Nellie exited the hospital, she pulled out a voice recorder from her pocket and pressed a kiss to its surface.
