Chapter 2

Nellie had never realized that Cameron's deep affection wasn't hers to claim. She just loved him too much and leaned on him too heavily. After all, he was the first guy to ever show her such kindness. Nellie couldn't bear the thought of losing Cameron, so she made the ultimate sacrifice to protect their fragile marriage-she gave him one of her kidneys. The surgery was a success.

Barely hanging on, Nellie lay on her hospital bed, listening to the sounds of Cameron and her father celebrating in her sister's room. Misery washed over her, tears silently streaming down her cheeks.

She had just gone through surgery, yet her dad and husband, the two men closest to her, seemed indifferent to her plight. All they seemed to care about was her sister Greta, who was prettier and smarter than her. Why bother with love if this is what it leads to?

From that moment on, Nellie felt hollow, her future now a blank canvas drained of color. While Cameron was busy helping Greta recover, Nellie secretly reached out to a world-renowned hypnotist, diving headfirst into the most successful hypnosis session ever. When it was over, Almos was amazed. Nellie's once dull eyes now sparkled, her sorrowful expression replaced with a charming, cute look.
