Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 709 You Are the Best in My Heart

Cameron had been staying with Nina on the crew for about a month. The drama was coming to an end, yet one night, Nina suddenly received a call from her mother, Marisa Midgarden.

Nina had never contacted her family again after knowing how her parents both had schemed her.

They never called Nina, unless they wanted money.

Nina answered the call and heard Marisa sobbing at the other side of the line, saying that Dominic had a stroke and was now at the hospital.

Nina frowned slightly, and before she could say anything, Marisa cried even louder, "I'm calling to tell you that I'm leaving Riverside City. I won't take care of him. Cory is in the rehab now. If you don't care about your father, then let him rot in the hospital."

"You are leaving?" At one point Nina thought she had heard it wrong.

Marisa wanted to leave Dominic alone when he had a stroke?

"Yes!" Marisa sounded emotional. "I tried my best to take care of him and this family for most of my life. Yet he betrayed me after getting some money from you. Why should I serve him? He should ask his mistress to take care of him! I hate him! I wish he is dead."

Marisa gasped at the end of the roar, thinking that Nina would scold her for being so heartless. Yet Nina remained silent on the other end of the phone.

Marisa calmed down a little and then she heard Nina say indifferently, "It's your choice. Leave then."

Marisa was speechless for a moment. Nina then sneered and said, "I know what you mean. You are acting like this in front of me just because you want me to take care of him. "

"Don't worry, I will. If one day you can't move and need someone to take care of you, I'll take care of you too." Nina then hung up.

Marisa was extremely selfish. Nina understood Marisa's hatred of Dominic after Dominic cheated on her, but that was not the real reason why she abandoned Dominic.

The root cause was that Marisa can't take care of a patient who can't move. Marisa claimed that she had done a lot for the family, but for starters, housework. Marisa was never good at it. In fact, she rarely did housework.

And as they took a lot of money from Nina over the years, Marisa didn't have to do anything. Why Nina would take care of Dominic?

How could she not do it?

He gave her life. So, she would replace him a care worker and pay for the expenses. That was all.

After hanging up the phone, Nina stood silently for a while. Cameron noticed it. He rushed over to her and asked, "What's wrong?" "

So, Nina told him that Dominic had a stroke and Marisa didn't want to take care of him. Then she sighed self-mockingly, "What parents do I have!"

Cameron held Nina in his arms, "They are your parents, but you are different from them."

Cameron could feel Nina's anger, shame and even sense of insecurity whenever it came to her parents.

He gently comforted her, "There are hundreds of kinds of humans in people's hearts, and you are the most beautiful type in my heart."

Nina was grateful for his comfort and affirmation. She hugged him tightly, pressed herself to his chest, and murmured, "You know, you have been pestering me since you just returned to the country, but every time I think of my parents, I feel like drowning in desperation and insecurity.

"So, you pushed me away again and over again?" Cameron asked.

"Yes," Nina nodded in his arms, then became silent.

She was even hoping that he would replace someone else and lead a happy life.

Cameron sighed, saying, "Silly."

Nina held him tighter without saying anything.

She was strong and confident. She had never felt inferior because of her parents because she didn't care about what others thought about her until she met Cameron.

After falling in love with Cameron, her parents became thorns in her heart.

Emelia said that Nina loved Cameron too much, she was afraid of losing him. That was why she cared so much about whether she was good enough for him.

Cameron hugged Nina. After a while, he proposed, "Since he is in the hospital, shall we pay a visit?"

Cameron thought that Nina was celerity. She was very famous. People would judge her if she didn't visit her dad when he was in the hospital.

After all, the outsiders knew nothing about how Dominic and Marisa had schemed Nina. If Nina didn't visit Dominic, some people with bad intentions might seize the chance to criticize Nina as unfilial and say that she was setting a bad example for the young.

If it wasn't for Nina's sake, Cameron wouldn't give a damn about Dominic.

Nina understood. So, she nodded, saying, "The shooting is about to finish. I don't have a lot to do. The director should allow my absence for a few days."

Having made the decision, Nina and Cameron went back to Riverside City the next day. They went to Dominic's hospital as soon as they got off the plane.

Dominic was suffering from serious sequelae of the stroke. His mouth was crooked. His eyes were slanted. He couldn't speak or take care of himself. He could only sit in a wheelchair.

Marisa sent him to a good hospital and hired a care worker for him, judging from which, she was not completely heatless. Yet the care worker said that Marisa only paid for one month of salary and that if no one paid for the rest, he shall leave after one month.

Nina said she would pay. Then she asked the care worker to go out and stood in front of the bed with her arms crossed, staring at the angry Dominic on the bed, who could barely make a sound.

"I know what you want to say. You want to accuse my mom of being selfish, of taking away all the money and abandoning you here. Am I right?"

Dominic nodded difficultly.

Nina was pleased. She smiled and mockingly said, "She left you, but you can ask your girlfriend to take care of you, why not?"

Dominic was nodding. He paused when Nina mentioned his mistress. He felt embarrassed.

"Do you know why my mom leave you?" said Nina, "You cheated on her. Why would she take care of you?"

Dominic was silent. He looked away to avoid Nina's ferocious gaze.

ī

He knew his betrayal hurt Marisa, and he felt sorry. But he didn't expect Marisa to be so heartless. He couldn't believe that she absconded with all the money when he needed her the most. She was stabbing a knife into his chest. It hurt more than the stroke.
