Chapter 371

Meanwhile, Nina was curled up on the hospital bed, sleeping. However, nightmares continually tormented her, which made her unable to rest.

The clarion ring of her phone woke her up from her nightmare.

She took a deep breath and saw that it was her mother calling her. Reflexively, she answered the call.

"Hello, Mom..." she said weakly.

Anna's harsh voice was heard over the phone. "You've finally answered the phone! Do you still remember that you have a mother? Where have you been for the past month and a half? You don't come back home, but you also don't call me. What's the point of me raising you, you ingrate? Have you been sleeping with another man? Get back home this instant! The money that you gave me the last time is no more. Think of some way to get me more money!"

Nina was covered in a thick blanket, but she could not stop shivering.

The person on the other end of the call was her mother. After Nina went missing for a month and a half, all she got from her mother was insults and accusations instead of words of comfort.

When her mother finally contacted her, the first thing she asked for was money.

To other people, a mother's love might be the greatest in the world, but to her, it was nothing.

"I'm in the hospital now, Mom. I'm not feeling well. We can talk after I go back. Alright, bye..." Nina answered weakly and ended the call.

Then, she curled up on the bed like a discarded shrimp.

Silent tears slid down her pale cheeks, which made her look extremely pitiful.

"Ms. Langdon, you've just finished an operation, and you shouldn't be too emotional. If you become too sad, that might have long-term implications on your health, and that'll be hard to treat." The young nurse tried to comfort Nina while changing her drip bottle.

The wound on the stomach was painful, but the pain was nothing compared to the pain in her heart.

Nina shook her head gently and forcefully swallowed all her grievances.

Even a stranger would take pity on her, but her mother did not. That was a tragedy.
