Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart -
Chapter 587 I Am Dubious
"I'm not petty nor villainous. Mind your words." Cameron warned.
Lucien snorted. He believed Cameron must have become aberrant because he could not win Nina's heart.
"Don't be a nose parker. How's the thing I told you to keep an eye on?"
Lucien was glum. A nose parker?
Cameron was his partner and best buddy. He went mad for Nina and left the company behind. Shouldn't he care for him?
Instead, Cameron called him a nose parker. So ungrateful.
But Lucien said, "I'm looking into it. Dominic Sanchez did take money from someone. The person behind a hater account paid him to do it. It seems that the haters schemed this."
"Probably it's because she is so popular right now. They want to smear her." Lucien thought it was simply some PR war between celebrities in the showbiz.
Cameron doubted it. "I don't think it's that simple. If they are haters, they could've had Dominic Sanchez expose me rather than make a scene before my parents. After all, it's me who sought troubles with them."
"Then they can spread the rumors that I have a special relationship with Nina or slander me. They can even criticize Nina for dating such a lame guy. That's their typical move."
"But the person behind this led Dominic to replace my parents, deliberately reveal my whereabouts, and draw them all the way from Sanya to Jamelaton. That person wants my parents to be provoked and hate Nina. I think what that person is willing to see is a complete breakup between me and Nina."
"Is it that complicated?" Lucien was perplexed.
But he still believed in Cameron, for he hadn't made any mistake till now.
Lucien sighed, "if it's the case, that person is so insidious."
"Yes." Cameron agreed. He said calmly, "So you need to keep an eye on it. Maybe dig out the social relations of the hater account."
"All right, I got it." Lucien complained, "I am a tech company entrepreneur, not a private detective."
"It's too cringey to say thank you. Let's be more pragmatic. I'll replace you a date after Nina and I get together." Cameron said.
"You don't need to," Lucien was startled, "There's no hurry. I don't want to get married yet. If you really want to thank me, give me one year off after you are married."
Lucien still clung to his cancelled world travel. He often complained that Cameron was supposed to shoulder more responsibility in the future, for he had burnt out.
Lucien was also traumatized by Cameron and Nina's love story.
Had anyone benefited from the love-hate relationship? Being single is the best.
"Cameron, please come back. Melanie keeps asking me where you at. She is so annoying." Lucien said before hanging up the phone.
"You invited the trouble. Put up with it."
Cameron hung up. Lucien was pissed off.
But he had to admit that Cameron had a point. Lucien meant to get Cameron and Melanie Blanchard together, so he let Melanie work at Camcien. Now he had to put up with the mess.
Sherlyn sent Lucien's number to Nina. Nina called him immediately.
Lucien took a deep breath and picked up.
Nina started the civilized conversation. "Hello, Mr. Fowler, I'm Nina Sanchez."
"Hi, big star." Lucien replied briskly.
Nina cut to the chase. "I tried to recall every detail today. I've met you, Mr. Fowler, for several times. But I don't think we know each other a lot. I really don't know why you kick me out of the show. I don't think I've offended you."
Nina knew that she couldn't directly ask Lucien if he knew Cameron. Lucien wouldn't admit. So she decided to beat around the bush, then took him by surprise.
"I have never been offended by you."
"But after I invested in the show, I heard that you were not single. I think it's not fair if we still have you on the show." Lucien came up with this excuse beforehand. "Well?" Nina knew it was just an excuse. She kept on kicking the can down the road. "I wonder who told you that. After all, I don't even know I am not single." Nina was sarcastic. "It's their privacy. I don't think it's appropriate to reveal his or her name." Lucien said.
"Right." Nina suddenly asked, "Is that person Cameron?"
Lucien was silent.
Nina was good at this. She was arguing round and round. She aimed to caught him unprepared with the last question.
Well, Lucien was no idiot, especially after spending years in the business circle. He instantly played the fool. "Cameron? Who is that?" Lucien said.
As an experienced businessman, Lucien was good at telling lies. No one could spot a giveaway.
Nina remained poised and kept asking, "Can you please tell me why is your company name 'Camcien'?"
"Because it's catchy." Lucien said.
Because it's the combination of their names. Because they are business partners.
"Isn't it?" Nina sneered, "I had a friend called Cameron. The two names sound so similar. What a coincidence!"
Lucien smiled and said, "It's indeed coincidental. I think I should meet your friend someday."
"You'd better not."
"Why?" Lucien was curious.
"Because he was a psycho, maniac and dumbass!" Nina snapped and slammed the phone. Lucien was stunned on the spot.☐☐☐☐☐
