Cameron managed to brush off Patrick and Miranda with a few quick words before trudging heavily into the

house.

As he walked past Nellie's room, he hesitated for once instead of just ignoring it. Standing at the door, he got lost

in his thoughts, trying to unravel why Nellie had turned so cold and unfeeling. But every reason he could think of

seemed to fall short. How did she end up like this?

Unable to hold back, Cameron knocked on the door. After waiting for what seemed like ages, there was still no

answer. Frustrated, he said, "Nellie, | know you're in there. Open up. I've got something to say."

From inside cNellie's stiff voice, "I need to rest. Whatever it is, it can wait till tomorrow." Her tone was icy

and even a bit annoyed.

Cameron was caught off guard. Back in the day, Nellie would've been thrilled if he reached out to her. But now,

even when he swallowed his pride to approach her, she acted like he was the last person she wanted to see. This

was just like he used to treat her. Feeling a pang of regret, Cameron softened his voice, "Nellie, your sister's

really sick this time. You should be there with your parents to help her through. That's what families do..."

Cameron's face fell, but he pushed on, "I know your folks made mistakes when you were a kid. But it's been so

Cameron's face went pale, a shiver running down his spine. This vengeful side of Nellie shook him to his core,

reminding him of the the took one of her kidneys. In comparison to Patrick and Miranda, he wasn't much

better. Would Nellie hold a grudge against him, too?

Cameron tried again, "Nellie, everyone makes mistakes..."

But she interrupted, cold as ice, "Cameron, you're no different from them. You're just another backstabber who

forgets kindness and breaks promises."

Cameron's face twisted with

discomfort as if he was in deep distress. Suddenly, Nellie slammed the door with a loud bang, making him jump.

With a heavy heart, he walked away. He couldn't shake the feeling of heaviness in his chest.

Back in his bedroom, he sank into the sofa, his mind elsewhere. His

phone buzzed, breaking his

Greta with a photo of an old-fashioned pocket watch engraved with ancient symbols.

Along with the picture, Greta had sent a little blurb:

Cameron glanced at the pocket watch, feeling utterly disinterested. Then Greta's message chimed again:
