Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 511

Greta was feeling utterly frustrated. "I'm not sick," she insisted, trying to keep her voice steady.

The doctor continued, "Has she ever shown signs of hearing or seeing things that aren't there?"

Cameron thought back to her odd comments earlier and nodded. "Yeah, she did say some weird stuff today. But before this, she never had any issues. So, I'm not sure if she's really delusional."

"Was there any kind of stress yesterday?" the doctor asked.

Cameron hesitated, then admitted, "Well, I did bring up divorce yesterday."

The doctor nodded knowingly. "The talk of divorce and today's behavior suggest that this might be her first episode triggered by stress. A little medication should help manage it quickly."

Cameron let out a breath he didn't realize he'd been holding. "Alright, can you give her a prescription?"

As the doctor left, he paused, a bit hesitant. "Mr. Dawson, if your wife is diagnosed with a mental illness, divorcing her could get complicated." He gave Greta a meaningful glance.

Greta's mind sparked with a thought.

When the doctor left, Cameron's tall frame seemed to sag a little. He pulled up a stool and sat in front of Greta, his eyes vacant, his expression weary. "Greta, oh Greta, did I owe you something in a past life that you're haunting me now? I finally muster the resolve to leave, and you come down with a mental illness."

Legally, divorcing someone with a mental illness isn't straightforward.

Greta's eyes were dark and intense. She opened her mouth, only to feel how dry it was. "Can I get a glass of water?"

Cameron was taken aback. "You're actually being polite to me?"

Greta replied, "I'm still a person, you know. I have my dignity. How can I cling to you when you’re trying so hard to shake me off like I’m some sticky tape?"
