Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 548 Deceiving the Enemy by Showing His Injuries

Because he had been with Emelia for a long time, and because he had really spent his time figuring out what was going on in this woman's head, he knew Emelia's mood by just observing her actions and expressions.

She was never a sour face. But those remarks she made about vegetables, were exactly the sign that she was not happy and tried to make him look bad.

Julian winked at Nina, expecting her to say something nice about him.

Pitifully, Nina completely ignored his winking, and shrugged to show that she didn't even care. Now he knew the consequences for making fun of her by bringing up that "nice guy".

Julian really felt a pain in his head. He had finally understood that Nina was not a soft cookie. It's better not to mess up with her next time.

At that dinner table, Nina didn't bring up Cameron's return. She didn't even know how to raise the subject.

Such chaos!

Who would thought that not long after Cameron got back, the only place where they had connections with each other, was on the bed. Nina couldn't feel more shameful.

After dinner, Nina had nice small talks with Emelia and then left their house with a big box of takeaway braised beef, happy and satisfied.

Watching her car disappearing into the night, Emelia headed back to the house, without a single word with Julian.

"Please be careful babe. Watch the steps." Julian was frightened as she took every step. Her belly was starting to pop and he was so worried about her that he wished he could carry her wherever she went. Emelia said nothing, but withdrew her hand from his, which, was an indicate that she actually, was unhappy.

She sneered at him, "I bet you know the relationship that she had with Cameron, yet you still talked about introducing a guy and stuff like that! It's really abominable, Julian!"

The "abominable" man could not argue back with his wife, so he said, "I am really sorry Emelia. It is my faults. All I ask of you is not to be upset any more, please! I'll change." Emelia stared at him, and strangely insisted otherwise, "No, Julian. You have to bring that guy to her this time. You said that. You made a promise. You're gonna do that." Julian was so confused by her words. What did that even mean?

Was she complaining about him introducing a guy to her just a minute ago? What happened now?

Emelia continued," You know what? I'm gonna see this time what kind of man you could replace for Nina."

So that was what she really meant. If "the guy" he brought to the dinner was no compare to Cameron, he would face even worse consequences.

Julian wanted to cry, but shed no tears. He couldn't even image his future days...

"So you sure that's OK?" It seemed that he had to tough it out this time. He almost confessed that the guy was actually Cameron himself, so see what would happen to him. Emelia nodded repeatedly. "Yes, definitely."

She didn't know that Cameron was back. No one ever told her. She had no idea of who "that guy" could be. She forced him to introduce the man to Nina just to teach him a lesson. Julian, with a heavy heart, made a promise to his beloved wife, "OK, if that is what you want."

If Nina was still reluctant to tell Emelia that Cameron was back, he had to do it himself in this way. He decided to think about the further arrangements next and call it a day. Life is hard. He thought to himself.

Lucien was called to have a drink at Cameron's residence. By the time he had arrived, half of the bottle was already empty. Lucien sat down and asked, "What happened man? Didn't you just hook up with Nina again?"

By mentioning up Nina, Cameron was dragged in deeper depression. With the wine glass in his hand, he murmured, "Tell me man, why she didn't want me anymore?"

"What the fuck? She dumped you?" Lucien understood that there was something going on between the two, but he never expected that Nina would break up with him.

He thought it was a small argument between a young couple, and they would soon get over it.

"Yeah. She said she didn't love me anymore, and she had gotten over it." He let out a self-mocking laugh, raised the glass and drank up.

Lucien was confused. "OK dude, so as she was saying, she didn't love you and she wanted a break-up, then why she slept with you, twice, for God's sake!"

"I want to know why too, man." Cameron poured another glass of wine for himself and started drinking, but the wine turned into ashes in his mouth.

Lucien signed, "I'd say, man, you should think for yourself, right? Look at you! You can get any type of woman as long as you want them! Remember Melanie Blanchard, and that chick that your parents and all your family like? There are women everywhere in the world man! You have a forest in front of you!"

Lucien didn't mean what he said, but he said that to give comforts to Cameron and to calm him down.

Unexpectedly, he was not calmed down. Instead, he said something that sounded like an extremely paranoid person, "I want her, only her."

Lucien didn't know how to react.

That dude was in deep trouble now, he thought.

"I can't watch him go down like this." Lucien thought to himself. He could not resist and said, "Look at you bro, with all the drink and wining and crying. That chick is at her prime now! So I think you haven't heard about it yet right? I was just back at the company and I saw Nina with her agent. They were heading upstairs to the studio to check for the progress I guess..." He told him all about how Nina and Sherlyn worked together and threatened him.

Lucien told him all about this, in an extremely aggrieved tone. He made those accusations only to hope that Cameron could make it even for him.

Unexpectedly, Cameron, after hearing his complaint, who was still depressed a second ago, suddenly smiled, and his eyes were glinting with affection, "How adorable! This is exactly her style of doing things. In hearing this, Lucien almost got choked.

Cute?

What was Cameron saying? Did he even hear himself?

What Nina had done to him was everything but cute!

That was pure abomination!

Love could make a man blind. That was so true.

Cameron's choose of words had proved that he was really out of his mind.

Cameron continued to add comments on their encounter, "Man, it's lucky for you to stop what you were doing. From what I know about her temper, you could've been knocked down in a second. Just don't do that anymore OK?"

Again, that left Lucien speechless.

His complaints had won no compassion from Cameron. Instead, all he got was sarcasm.

Lucien was too annoyed to be here anymore. What a friend! All he ever cared about was some woman that had dumped him.

Too annoyed, Lucien reached for the wine glass and planned to drink it off, but Cameron stopped him, "Stop drinking. I need you to take me to Nina's place later."

Lucien finally broke out and hummed with anger, "She doesn't want you anymore, dude! But you are rushing to deliver yourself to her door. Have some dignity, man!" "And by the way, I remember you called me to have a drink with you, not to be your driver!"

Even having been drinking a lot, Cameron still managed to give his friend a contemptuous expression, "It's a trick. You just don't know it yet. I'm deceiving the enemy by showing my injuries."
