Mistaken Marriage, Unexpected Love

“Why are you bringing him up?” Greta asked.

Confused, Camila wondered if she had made a mistake.

“I… I just mentioned it without thinking,” she said, struggling to explain herself.

“Do you have a place to go? My husband will be back soon and he doesn’t like strangers,” Greta said tactfully.

“Thank you for your help,” Camila replied, putting down her cup. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Or I would have been badly beaten. I’m leaving now.” “It’s not a big deal.”

Greta saw her out and, as Camila was leaving, Nelson happened to arrive at the door. When he saw Camila, his face immediately changed!

“What are you doing here?” he asked in shock.

Greta spoke up as Camila was about to explain.

“She had a fight with her boyfriend. I spotted her and was anxious that he might hurt her so I offered her a safe haven and a cup of tea.”

Nelson shot Camila a sharp glance and inquired, “Is that really true “Yes, it’s the truth. I never expected such a coincidence…” Camila affirmed with a nod.

Greta looked over at Camila and eventually fixed her gaze on Nelson, asking, “Do you two know each other?”

Nelson walked over, put his arm around Greta’s shoulder and revealed, “She is Josiah’s favorite student. I met her when I saw Josiah Last time.”

Greta’s tone softened as she asked, “Are you a doctor?”

Camila honestly replied, “Yes, I am.”

Suddenly, Greta put her hand to her forehead and scrunched up her face in pain.

Nelson asked gently, “Do you have a headache again?”

Greta nodded.

“Let me assist you to your room.” Nelson scooped up Greta in his arms and made his way back to her room. As he walked, he turned his head to look at Camila and warned, “I don’t appreciate people prying into my personal affairs. If I suspect that you came here today on purpose, I won’t Let you go easily.”

“I didn’t,” Camila responded.

“You better not have,” Nelson retorted before closing the door.

“Why are you so angry? She’s just a young girl.” Camila could hear Greta’s voice.

Nelson explained, “I need to be cautious of unscrupulous individuals.” Initially, Camila thought she might have been overthinking things but Nelson’s behavior was too suspicious.

He appeared to be apprehensive about anyone getting too close to Greta. What could be causing his fear?
