Nellie felt a surge of anger, ready to lash out. To Cameron, she'd always be the out-of-place nobody, unworthy of being here. His message mocked her, implying she didn't belong.

Cameron's cold stare bore into her, and after repeatedly checking his phone with no reply, frustration clouded his face.

He was sure she had read his text. Irritated, he shot off another message: [Nellie, are you using your Mrs. Dawson name to snag that prime seat underhandedly?]

He added a blunt warning: [Don't use your title for your own benefit. You're making me look bad.]

Nellie saw his message, and her heart, numb until now, ached with a familiar pain.
