"Are you actually flirting with your own brother-in-law?" Her lips quivered with anger.
Nathalie sauntered over, leaned in close, and whispered, "I picked up the tricks from you, my dear sister. Isn't
this exactly how you won over my ex-husband back in the day?" Greta's face turned stark white. "You..."
Nathalie pressed on, "And my brother-in-law didn't pushaway, did he? Just like when you used to make your
moves on him, he didn't turn you down either."
Images from the past flooded Greta's mind. She remembered how she used to flirt with Cameron right under
Nathalie's nose. Cameron was clueless about her intentions, but his obliviousness genuinely hurt Nathalie. Now,
it seemed the tables had turned, and she found herself in Nathalie's shoes. But Greta wasn't as meek or
forgiving as Nathalie. She exploded on the spot. "You're shameless. How dare you flirt with your brother-in-law!"
In a fit of rage, she slapped Nathalie.
Nathalie touched her cheek, then turned to Cameron and asked, "Did | really flirt with you?"

Cameron was left speechless, his mind a jumble of confusion.
If Nathalie's actions were out of line, then Greta's past antics were even more shameful. Did Greta pursue him
relentlessly when she was aware of the hurt she caused Nathalie?
For the first time, Cameron felt a rift between him and Greta.
"Greta, stop this nonsense," he scolded.
Greta's eyes widened in disbelief, tears threatening to spill. "How can you take her side? I'm your wife!"
Cameron sighed impatiently. "I haven't done anything with her. You're just imagining things."
Those were familiar words, but this time, they were directed at Greta, and it shattered her composure. She broke
down, sobbing. "Cameron, do you not loveanymore?"
"I know I'm not as attractive or successful as Nathalie now. Do you think I'm a Plain Jane?"
Her vulnerability threw Cameron off balance. He sighed, trying to soothe her, "Of course | love you. You're my
wife. Who else would I love?"
Nathalie scoffed, "I was your wife once. Didn't you fall for your wife's sister then, too?"
Her words hit like a sledgehammer to Cameron's conscience, highlighting his unfaithfulness. Greta's insecurities
deepened, and she cried even harder. Cameron turned on Nathalie. "Nathalie! Are you stirring up trouble
betweenand my wife on purpose?"
Nathalie sneered, "Over a man like you? Only someone as vulnerable and dependent as her would see you as a
prize Without your steady support, she'd be lost. And as for me, I'm a successful, attractive woman. Why would |
ever want someone like you?"

"You..." Cameron was left fuming, his face flushed with embarrassment.
Just then, the emergency room doors swung open. The doctor walked out, pulling down his mask. "We managed
to save the patient's legs, but he's likely to be paralyzed."

Greta nearly fainted from the news. "How could this happen?"
Nathalie mocked her, "Well, Greta, dad's paralyzed. Not only can hemot look after you anymore, but you'll also
have to care for him. Looks like you're in for a rough ride, hub?"
Greta shot back, "He's not just my dad. You have a responsibility to take care of him too."
