Reborn From Oblivion by Christia Muray

"Did my dad really put that much pressure on you?"

Morris's eyes flickered, "Not exactly. I just really don't want to get into advanced calculus. Nathalie, you know how much I dread studying. Just thinking about it makes my whole body ache..."

Nathalie cut through the charade, "It's not that you don't love learning. You've been reincarnated. In your past life, you were the genius everyone looked up to. This time around, you just don't want to waste time on stuff you've already got down pat."

Morris was taken aback for a moment. "When did you figure out I'm reincarnated?"

Nathalie replied, "In your past life, you and Ashley were the couple everyone admired... But now, you're avoiding her on purpose. That's when I knew you had come back."

Morris's usually calm face was suddenly filled with emotion. He squeezed her hand so tightly that Nathalie almost yelped.

"Admired? Me and Ashley? You—"

Nathalie blinked, her eyes wide with confusion as she looked at him. "Isn't it true? You were the heir to the Montgomery fortune, and she was the eldest Stewart daughter. You were the golden couple everyone talked about. Ow... that hurts..." Morris let go of Nathalie's hand, and all his pent-up emotions seemed to vanish. His eyes turned a deep shade of red, and when he spoke again, it was with a heavy heart, "Nathalie, in both my past and current lives, I've never loved Ashley." "What? How is that possible?" Nathalie was shocked.

"Then why did you marry her-"

"It was fake."
