Reborn From Oblivion (Nellie and Cameron) novel Chapter 1025

“In your eyes, am I like your family’s lucky charm? Responsible for your prosperity and making sure your family line never ends?” Morris’s deep, magnetic voice cut straight through Nathalie’s words, leaving her completely speechless.

Honestly, his voice was something else—young and smooth, but with just a hint of roughness, like someone who’d seen the world and come back a little broken. It was the sort of sound that made it impossible not to be captivated.

Every girl in the room turned to look.

And once they saw Morris, they were absolutely smitten.

They’d all expected someone in a wheelchair to look pale and frail, maybe even a bit gloomy. But Morris had this flawless, milky skin, sharp, bright eyes that sparkled, and features so perfectly aristocratic it was almost intimidating. He looked like he’d stepped straight out of a painting, too perfect to be real.

“Oh my God, he’s gorgeous,” someone whispered.

Nathalie, always proud, couldn’t resist showing off. “Didn’t I tell you? Mr. Morris isn’t just the smartest guy in the city—he’s better looking than any celebrity. Anyone who marries him would be seriously blessed.”

Morris looked at this cool, stylish girl. If he only paid attention to her words, he might have frowned at her flattery. But her fake voice slipped just enough that he caught a glimpse of her real self underneath, and he could see right through her act.

He glared at her, a mix of fondness and frustration in his eyes. Through gritted teeth, he said, “Thanks for the compliments, miss. But since you seem to know me so well, do we actually know each other?”

Nathalie stiffened, her laugh awkward and forced. “Heh… heh…”

If she said no, wouldn’t that make everything she’d just said sound like a lie? But if she said yes, and Morris figured out who she was—wouldn’t he be mad she was trying to set him up with someone else?

She was stuck.

After a quick second, she tried to dodge. “Mr. Morris, you look especially handsome tonight.”

Morris wasn’t having it. “Don’t dodge the question. Do we know each other?”
