Chapter 959 Nina Wanted A Hug
Percy's body temperature turned warmer as he pulled off his tie impatiently.
The smile on Nina's mouth carried a touch of mockery. She was well aware of what was coming next. She stood up and took off
her coat with one hand.
"I reek, I'll go wash up first." She was still sober. As the most special character around him, she was well aware of his likes and
dislikes. Percy hated women who smelled like alcohol. She planned to take a quick shower before they got down to business.
Percy gave her a push and she landed on the sofa. "No need, I want you right now!"
After an hour, Nina was exhausted and lay on the sofa. She watched him dress himself up and leave.
She slowly let out a sigh when she heard the sound of his car driving away.
In Percy's heart, she was nothing more than a tool. Her status was lower than that of bottle girls in the nightclubs.
Bottle girls could choose which customers they wanted to accompany. They had money in their pockets and were happy.
However, she had no choice and she was never happy afterward.
Nina had no strength left in her. She felt sluggish, and the disgust in her heart grew every day. How long would it take her to
move on from this kind of life?
She missed her old self...
Nina picked up the phone that had fallen to the floor and saw that she had an unread text. She tapped on the notification with
trembling fingers. It was a text from Bianca.
[Nina, are you home yet? Are you okay?]
Bianca was worried that Percy would make things difficult for Nina. His mood seemed terrible when they left.
[I’m okay.] Nina tried her best to muster her energy to reply to Bianca. [How about you, have you wrapped things up? Are you
going home?]
After ten minutes, Bianca replied: [I'm home. I'll talk to you about it tomorrow. Sleep well!]
Nina put down her phone and stared at the ceiling.
The cleaners were not meticulous enough. There was a spot on the ceiling. It was just like her life; it was not completely dirty, but
a big part of it was contaminated.
Her phone rang and Nina picked it up. It was her mother.
She did not want to answer it. She knew that her mother would only call to ask her for money. No matter how much she was
earning, Anna would take everything.
Her mother was like a vampire that was still not satisfied after sucking her dry. She had to eat her corpse to finally be satisfied.
The ringing stopped, and after a while, her phone rang again.
It rang over and over again. Eventually, Nina received a text message that said: [Nina, if you don't want me to kill myself in front
of you, pick up my calls.]
The phone rang again and Nina was forced to answer it.
"Mom." Her voice was feeble. She thought about whether Anna would have some pity for her when she heard her voice...
In reality, she was hit with a wave of verbal abuse over the phone. She screamed at Nina for being unfilial and ruthless. "You
b*tch! I called you so many times! If I didn't get through to you this time, should I have called the police to check and see if you
died somewhere? How many days have you not been home? If it weren't for the scar on my stomach, I would've thought I had
never given birth to a child! You unfilial b*tch! Since you were born, bad things have been happening all the time. Come home
tomorrow!"
Nina gave a wry smile. The Langdon family's undoing was their fault and had nothing to do with her.
After she was born, the family was happy until Jean Langdon and Marie
Rayne showed up and completely destroyed the family.
Could anyone blame her?
Anna yelled at Nina again when she did not hear a reply, "Why aren't you saying anything? Are you off being a h*e?"
Nina tried to sit up but was too dizzy. She frowned and lay down again." Mom, how much do you want this time?"
Every time Anna called her, it was to ask her for money. Whenever Anna asked her to go home, it was so that she could force
her to pay up face-to- face.
She used to have some hope for Anna, but she had learned not to trust her mother a longtime ago.
Anna was stunned as it was easier than she expected.
She calmed down and said, "One million. If you don't have time, just transfer it to my bank account. You don't have to come
back."
Nina collapsed. Anna's appetite had grown over the years, and she was using her as a limitless ATM. Were they really related?
"I don't have that much money," she said indifferently.
As soon as Anna heard that, her tone turned sharp. "If you don’t have money, who has? You haven't given me even a few cents
after working for so long. I don't care, transfer me a million dollars this week. Or else, I'll let everyone know how ruthless you
are!"
Nina smiled bitterly. 'Money? Haven't I given you enough?’
All her money was given to her so-called family!
"Mom, I just gave you a large sum last month. What happened to it? I have no money to give you this month!" Nina had to be
ruthless.
Anna threw a tantrum. "No money? Your brother in prison needs money. When he’s released, he needs to buy a house. He
needs a house to get married. Can you bear to watch him die alone? Your father is in poor health, and that takes a lot of money
too. How can we survive with the little money that you gave us? If you don’t give me more, you'll never hear the end of it! Just
how useless are you? You can't help with anything and even worked with an outsider to send your brother to jail. Nina, how could
you do this to us?”
Nina was drained after the conversation. She did not cry when she was treated roughly by Percy, but at that moment, she could
not stop her tears from flowing.
Anna continued cursing at her over the phone. Eventually, she stopped listening, ended the call, and then turned off the phone.
Nina gave a wry smile. 'How useless am I?’ i
She would have to satisfy Anna's growing appetite until all that was left of her were her bones.
Bianca was a great boss and paid her enough to sustain her family.
However, if Anna's appetite could be filled, she would not still be with Percy. She had been bullied by him again and again. Her
soul was already hollow.
She was only left with a body without emotions.
Nina's tears kept streaming down her face, and in the end, she could no longer restrain herself. She sat on the sofa and curled
into a ball.
She was not sure where she could find one million dollars to fill Anna's appetite this time.
Nina felt that the life in front of her was a huge black hole. No matter how hard she tried or how hard she worked, there was
always someone who could instantly beat her back down and shatter her dreams.
She was done crying. The large living room was filled only with the sound of her sniffles. It felt a little empty and lonely.
All Nina wanted was a hug.
However, she was Percy's prisoner. She was unworthy to find a man who truly loved her.
Looking at the marks on her body, the tears that had just stopped started again.
She longed for love, but she could not get it. Nina could not figure out why the universe hated her and what forced her to end up
like this.
Anna said that it was Bianca who caused their family's misfortune.
However, Bianca was a victim.
Jean, her brother, was the one to blame...
Nina then remembered that Jean was about to complete his sentence. She sighed and wondered what would be waiting for her
in the future.
