The crowd, full of good intentions, helped her down. Nellie was shaken to her core. She leaned against the wall

and gradually sank to the floor. Despite everything, she had cout on top in this gamble. Cameron shot her a

dark look and walked away, leaving her behind.

In the hospital room, Greta lay on the bed, looking as if all life had drained from her. Her kidneys weren't

functioning properly after a bout of heavy drinking, leaving her unable to urinate and causing her body to swell.

Cameron knelt beside her, guilt etched into his features as he held her hand and apologized, "Greta, I'm really

sorry. Nellie wouldn't donate blood, so | had to go to a blood bank for you."

Greta's expression was a mix of sorrow and anger. "She wouldn't even donate blood for me? Does Nellie really

hate me, Cameron?"

Cameron, sharing her frustration, replied, "I don't know what's happened to Nellie. It's like she's become

someone else. She's no longer the sweet, kind person she once was. | must have been blind."

Greta sighed, resigned, "It's my fault for being so weak. If she won't help me, | guess it's just my bad luck."

Cameron's eyes were full of sympathy. "Greta, the doctor said it's just mild acute kidney failure. If you recover

and take care of yourself, you'll be alright."

Greta felt a bit reassured. "Cameron, | feel so useless. | tried to shield you from a few drinks and ended up

making a mess of things. Don't you resentfor dragging you down?"

Cameron, full of affection, said, "Greta, you're so considerate. How could | ever blyou?"

Greta was moved to tears. "Thank you, Cameron." Their hands remained tightly clasped together.

Outside, Nellie observed the scene

Breaking free from her reliance on Cameron had been an excruciating ordeal.

When Greta noticed Nellie, she stiffened but didn't let go of Cameron's hand. "Nel, did you cto see me?" she

called out softly.

Cameron turned, noticing Nellie's

indifferent gaze fixed on his and Greta's intertwined hands. A bad feeling crept over him, and he instinctively let

go of Greta's hand. Greta trembled, her eyes welling up with tears, but she stayed silent. Her performance was

pitiful to anyone watching.

Cameron internally berated himself, 'What are you doing? How could you hurt the girl you truly love for Nellie,

who means nothing to you?' Determined, he reclaimed Greta's hand and gently patted it. Greta glanced at Nellie,

a triumphant look in her eyes.

"Why are you here?" Cameron asked coldly. "If you're not going to give blood to your sister, there's no point in

you being at the hospital. Just leave."

Greta watched Nellie with a sense of

smugness. But Nellie stepped into

the room, giving Greta a critical once-over. "I just wanted to check on ce-over.

as you're saying?"

Greta's face turned white again, and she choked out, "Nel, how could you say such a thing?"

Nellie replied, "You're overthinking it. | couldn't care less about your health. I'm just here to ask my husband if he

wants to chwith me."
