Reborn From Oblivion by Christia Muray

Greta reached out, desperate to pull Cameron into a hug, hoping to offer some comfort. But Cameron just glared at her, his eyes red and filled with accusation. "Stay away from me. I don't want to see you."

Greta's defenses crumbled. Tears streaming down her face, she pleaded, "Cameron, all you ever do is blame me. Have you ever stopped to see that I truly care?"

"Nina was sick, and her treatment drained us every day. You worked yourself to the bone just to cover her medical bills. You had no time for a wife drowning in postpartum depression, no time to notice when Nellie's kidney problems flared up, and definitely no time for Nina. I was the one who stepped up, doing the things a husband should have done. I put up with Nellie's temper, took all of Nina's cold glares and misunderstandings, and still had to watch you and Nellie parade your love around in front of me. Cameron, you treat Nellie so well, but you're cruel to me."

Cameron said nothing.

His hands balled into fists, knuckles white. When he finally spoke, his voice was rough and unsteady. “Greta, my wife and daughter are gone. That's a tragedy nothing can describe."

He suddenly looked up, eyes bloodshot and cold. "You were the one taking care of them, and now they're dead. And you want me to thank you for it?”

Greta shook, her whole body trembling. "What are you saying? You can't possibly think I had anything to do with their deaths, can you?"

Cameron nodded slowly. "When I left, they were both okay. Sure, their health wasn't great, but there's no way they should've died like that."
