Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart -
Chapter 663 Ruined Surprise
Since Nina had finished shooting most of the scenes of the TV show, the director granted her a few days off. Therefore, she was not on a tight schedule this time.
It was almost noon when Nina arrived in Riverside City. She heard from Lucien that Cameron had been busy with his work these days and probably still in the lab at this time. Hence, Nina decided that she would go check on him tonight after he had done all the experiments.
She went back to her house, took a shower to clean up, and headed to Emelia's residence to have lunch with her.
The size of Emelia's baby bump stunned Nina. "Your belly has grown so much since I last saw you. How long has it been? A month?"
Ever since the meet and greet for "Princess Leilania", Nina and Emelia only got to connect with each other via phone call or face time. Emelia's baby bump was barely noticeable before Nina left Riverside City. This time, however, it was like Emelia had stuffed a balloon under her shirt.
"Yeah, the twins grow really quickly," Sitting on the sofa, Emelia stroked her belly and said with a smile. "The doctor said that I might have to be admitted to the hospital in a while and stay hospitalized until delivery."
Nina's eyes softened. She stroked Emelia's face and said, "Sweetie, I know it's hard for you. Thank you for bearing my babies."
Julian glanced at Nina and said, "Do you know what you are saying? They're not your babies."
Julian had also said 'thank you' to Emelia countless times. Every time Julian saw Emelia walk around in a gingerly fashion because she didn't want to accidentally hurt the little two lives in her growing pregnant belly, Julian's heart ached for her. He wished that the babies could come out already and end this suffering right this second.
Nina snorted, "So we are not biological related. They are still my godchildren.

Nina leaned on Emelia's shoulder as she said, and Emelia just let her be. Seeing that, Julian was speechless.
"What were they doing sitting so close to each other?" He thought to himself.
Just then, the housekeeper called them to meal. Julian thoughtfully helped Emelia up from the sofa, carefully escorting her to the dining room.
Behind the two, Nina rolled her eyes at Julian. Was Julian being jealous of her? Again? She was Emelia's best friend!
When the babies are born, was he going to be jealous of them for hogging Emelia's attention?
At the table, Emelia said that she wanted to give Nina the copyright of the romance comedy she wrote based on Nina as a wedding gift. Nina said, "Thanks, I'll take it then."
Emelia had put so much effort into writing this novel. The most respectful thing to do was to accept the gift. Even if she said that she wanted to pay for it, Emelia would refuse it. Their friendship was way over this.
Emelia smiled and said, "You're welcome, this is the only proper wedding gift I can think of."
She had talent in writing. Being able to use her own words to retell the love story between Nina and Cameron and make it into a book was the sincerest gift she could give her. Nina blew her a kiss. "Love you."
Julian could only turn a blind eye to them. He almost died of jealousy.
"Where is Cameron? Why is she plaguing my wife all day?" Julian was screaming in his heart.
Julian asked, "Do you and Cameron plan to adapt it into a movie or something?"
Nina shook her head. "Personally, I don't want to."
She turned to Emelia and explained, "I'm afraid that the haters will troll on me."
Julian snorted, "Afraid? That's new."
Nina had always been tough and rugged. If the haters trolled her, she would troll them back harder. Now she was saying that she was afraid of the trolls?
Nina said sternly, "It's fine if they troll just me. But this is about Cameron as well. I don't want those haters to taint our love story."
Julian was quite impressed by Nina's words. He never thought that she could be so considerate.
Emelia nodded in agreement. "Then don't do it."
Nina laughed as she said thoughtfully: "Maybe when our children grow up, we can let them act in it. At that time, everyone might have already forgotten about this story. No trolls will make hate comments because of me by then."
"Sounds perfect," Emelia seconded the idea before Julian could say anything.
He pursed his lips and remained silent.
He thought, "My children will never have to go into the showbiz. Our family business will suffice them for their lifetimes. There's no need for them to earn a living in the entertainment industry." Julian could never have thought that his son really became a global A-list star and his family's business was taken over by his precious daughter.
Although he didn't want his daughter's life to be stuffed by work and business, he could talk his son out of acting. Finally, he gave in and let his two children pursue their respective dreams. He could never though that his business acumen would be passed on to his daughter.
After lunch, Nina chatted with Emelia for some more. "How long are you planning to stay?" Emelia asked.
"A couple days, I guess," Nina answered.
Emelia asked with concern, "Will you go to see Cameron's family then?"
Nina shrugged. "I don't know. It's his say. I'm fine with whatever he plans. I can hide from them forever."
Emelia replied, "You have nothing to hide.
Once they get to know you, they will replace out how great you are. Then, they will treat you with sincerity." Nina giggled.
Emelia heard that Colleen had took the initiative to apologize to Nina. That move said a lot about Colleen. She must be a forthright person who didn't want to hold grudges or dwell on the past. Nina sighed, "I hope so."
If Colleen could do that, Nina would also return the favor with 100% sincerity.
Because of the pregnancy, Emelia was easily drowsy and need to take a nap after lunch. So, Nina didn't stay long.
On the way back home, Nina had this sudden craving for coffee. So, she parked the car at a cafe and went to buy it.
Soon after she left, her name made the headline. The title "meeting Nina Sanchez at a cafe" became trending.
Nina didn't expect this and was totally shocked.
She thought that her celebrity disguise was good enough. She was wearing a mask, a hat, and a pair of sunglasses. Plus, she left as soon as she had the coffee. She didn't know why people could still recognize her.
If Cameron saw this headline, he would know that she had returned to Riverside City. She went through all the trouble to hide it from him just to give him a surprise.
But now?
It was more like a ruined surprise.
