Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 27

Cameron's best buddy gave him a playful nudge and said, "Cameron, you better hustle and get Nellie back. Imagine if she shows up one day with a baby bump and hands you divorce papers. You'd be left with nothing but tears. And let's be honest. Getting dumped by Nellie isn't exactly good for your image."

Cameron clenched his jaw, muttering, "She wouldn’t dare..."

Considering the annual celebration looming, Cameron decided it was time to relent.

"Matt, book me a flight to Australia and grab some gifts for her while you're at it."

Matt hesitated but nodded. "Sure thing."

The following day, Cameron, armed with a plush cat Matt had picked up, boarded a flight to Australia. He'd made up his mind to bring Nellie back himself. It was his way of making amends for months of neglect.

He thought, ‘Once I sweet-talk her, she'll be eager to come back with me.’

Cameron headed to the Smiths' place. Six months earlier, he’d asked his assistant to find a trustworthy family to watch over his wife in this foreign land. But when he knocked on their door, brimming with excitement, and explained why he was there, the Smiths looked completely baffled.

"Nellie!" Cameron called into the house.

He imagined Nellie rushing out to greet him at the sound of his voice. But instead of the reunion he envisioned, he was met with rejection from the Smiths.

"Mr. Dawson, please keep it down. You're disturbing the neighbors."
