Chapter 143 - I Can Prove Myself

"I.......I could not believe that my loved one would leave me like that.I waited for her for many years,I thought that someday she might return to my side. But she never showed up. Three years ago, I got an anonymous call . It was from a woman. She informed me that my Angel gave birth to a baby before her death. Although that woman did not inform me anything in detail about my child, that day I was very happy.I......I was happy that I have my child somewhere in this world.

I tried hard to find that woman, to know about details about my child, but I could not find her anywhere. I had been waiting for you here from that day onward.I .......I knew that I would be able to meet my child someday.

Although I had no idea if my child was a boy or girl, I was getting ready to welcome my child to my world. Nina, it was not that I abandoned you, but I just could not find you.I had no idea, how would you look. But my Angel had left her looks on you. So.......so , I could be able to identify you at a glance.

That day I fainted and could not talk to you. My health condition was also not good. When I got my consciousness two days back, Martin informed me everything about you.I......I was very much eager to meet you. Now you are here in front of me. I don't want anything else in my life."Mr. Lin said with a happy tone and closed his eyes in tiredness. He was very much tired as he was speaking for a long time. Nina Anderson was staring at him thoughtfully.

She came back to her senses after a long time. She always hated her imaginary father figure all her life. She never thought that her father would have been waiting for all his life for her mother as well as her.

Suddenly she remembered what her grandma told her. Whenever she asked her grandma, about her father, she always replied that her father would come to take her from there. She believed her words and waited for her father, but he never appeared. At last, she tried to forget the existence of her father.

When she had to get admission to a school, her grandma sent her to a school, where all the children of rich people studied. She remembered her Grandma said that she needs to go to a good school to make her eligible for a good family. Although the fees of the school were very high, her grandma never hesitated to pay for it. She even started to work in more houses to cover the expenses.

"Nina, you must study well to fit in your father's family."Her Grandma often said to her. She asked her Grandma about her father, but she never told her about it.

"You need not find your father. One day he will find you. Just wait for that day."Whenever Nina Anderson asked her Grandma about her father, she replied. That's why she waited for him . But as time passed she started to believe that her father would never appear in front of her.

Three years ago her Grandma called her and said that she has prepared a surprise for her. Her Grandma left home that day saying that she would return with a big surprise for her. But she never returned home, as she got hit by a truck as she was crossing the road. She died on the spot.

'She must have called dad that day to inform him about me and got hit by a truck.'She thought.

"Nina,I........I am sorry. I.........I am sorry.I was very tired."She came back to the present to hear Mr. Lin's voice.

"I .......I am sorry,Dad.I was so rude earlier.I............I thought that you hate me and my mom. That's why you abandoned me. Although my Grandma told me that someday you will find me,I did not believe in her words.I am sorry, Dad.I hurt your feeling earlier. Please forgive me."Nina Anderson said with tearful eyes.

Mr. Lin held her hand and smiled.

"My child.I know. You need not ask my forgiveness.I have found my daughter back.I am very happy today.I was heartbroken to hear your struggle.I heard everything about what Lucy did to you.I will make her pay for it. Although she is not my daughter, I always treated her as my own daughter. But she ...she even blacklisted my own daughter in my own company!"Mr. Lin said in an angry tone.

"Dad,I don't think that she had done these with some ulterior motives. You should not get angry at her. It is not a big thing for me. She is my childhood friend after all. She must have done this because I am not good enough for that job. I have also done some mistakes back then."Nina Anderson said in a thoughtful tone.

"Nina, my child. You have really grown up without my knowledge. You even can forgive those who tried to ruin your life.I really missed those days.I .........I could not hold you with my hands when you were small.I could not send you on the first day of your school.I ........I really missed those days.

Now tell me about your present life. What is your relationship with Mr. Thomson? I can see how much he cared about you. Martin also told me that he was trying to protect you that day also.I can tell that he likes you. What about you? Do you like him too?"Mr. Lin asked with a smile.

Nina Anderson lowered her head shyly and nodded. Mr. Lin smiled brightly.

"Nina,I am happy that you have chosen such a good person . I know about Mr. Thomosn. He is really a nice person.I am really very happy."Mr. Lin said and dialed a number.

"Come in with Mr. Thosmon."He uttered over the phone and hung up the call. Martin entered the cabin with Mr. James Thomson. Mr. Lin stared at him for a moment. James Thomson bowed at him. He was a little nervous now.

"Do you like my daughter?"Mr. Lin asked in a stern tone.

"Yes.I like her."James Thomson said in a bold tone.

"Can you prove that? How can I believe that you like her? My daughter is so outstanding. Do you really think that I will let her be with you? I can find the best out of the best life partner for her. Why would I let her be with you? What is good in you? I couldn't  find anything good in you."Mr. LIn asked in a serious tone. Nina Anderson looked at her father with shock. She could never think that her father would treat Mr. James Thsosmon like trash.

"Dad, what are you............"Nina Anderson tried to speak something, but her father stopped her.

"No Nina. You are my only daughter.I have found you after many years.I can not let you be with just someone. He must prove him to be with you."Mr. Lin said again in the same serious tone.

James Thomson stared at the man sitting on the bed thoughtfully for some time and reached near the bed. Nina was looking at him worriedly. She was thinking of a way to pursue her father. 

"Sir,I love your daughter and I can prove myself. You can not separate her from me that easily."Mr. James Thomson said in a bold tone.

"Is it? Then prove it. I am waiting. I can not let my daughter go after a man who can not value her."Mr. Lin said.

"Sir,I always valued her the most in my life after I met with her for the first time. Although at first, I thought to use her to solve my own problems. But I fell in love with her without knowing it. Sir, I sincerely love your daughter. And  as we are already married, no one can separate both of us."James Thomson's words were like a bomb to Nina Anderson as well as her father and Martin. Everyone stared at James Thsosmon with wide eyes. It was Nina Anderson who cam back to her senses first.

"Mr.Th..........Thomson, It's ok. You should not lie to Dad. I will talk to him about it."Nina Anderson dragged James Thsosmon to a corner and whispered. He smiled at her.

"I have not lied. It is true."He said and reached near Mr. Lin who was still staring at him.

"Sir, as we are already married. Please give both of us your blessings."James Thomson said with a bow.

"Are......are you both really m........married?"Mr. Lin asked in a shocked tone.
