Chapter 986
The driver slammed on the brakes, heart hammering, and snapped, "Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

Cameron bristled, feeling his pride trampled by this kid. "And who are you supposed to be?"
"Remember my name-Nathan." The boy didn't look back as he walked away, leaving Cameron standing there in
a fog of confusion. He couldn't shake the feeling that Nathan had shown up for Nellie, his brand-new bride.
Years went by. That strange encounter faded into the background, and Cameron convinced himself it was a case
of mistaken identity, just a blip in the story of his life.
But now, staring at Morris in his wheelchair, everything changed. The moment Morris took off his sunglasses,
Cameron saw the sstriking features-the srebellious face from years ago.
That kind of beauty was unforgettable.
"You... you were that boy in white?" Cameron blurted, stunned.

Memories from both his lifetimes-frustrations, losses, bitter endings-flashed through Cameron's mind. All at once,

Morris looked up, idly running a finger along his perfect nails. "Which disaster are you talking about? Breaking
you and Nellie up? The Rowland family going bankrupt? Your vicious mother's suicide of your clueless father's

Cameron was shaking with anger, pointing at Morris as he spat out, "You're disgusting. If Nellie knew the real
you, she'd leave you too."
Morris frowned, irritation flickering
across his face. "You and EXOAANY

the fight draining out of him. "I never

Morris looked around, taking in the family portraits on the walls. Nellie's face was everywhere. Even the décor-
the colors, the little touches-everything in the room reflected what she loved.
