Chapter 718 She Can't Afford Losing
Cameron said, "I am afraid the child would be educated in a wrong way."
He looked at Nina and added, "I mean, we might have different opinions about parenting. If..."
Nina interrupted, "Hey! It's not that we are having a baby tomorrow. You are overthinking."
She leaned back, saying, "Drive. I am sleepy."
So, Cameron stopped speaking and started to drive.
Before falling asleep, Nina whispered in Cameron's arms, "I don't want to go to that reality show for couples."
"Alright." Cameron agreed without hesitation.
Nina smiled, "Don't you even want to know the reason?"
Cameron held her tighter, "I agree with whatever you decided."
Nina laughed. Then she told him the reason, "I've exposed myself in the public when I work. I don't want my private life to be watched." "Someone people are dark. They couldn't stand seeing others doing better than them. If we are too high-profiled, they might be jealous." "People in this industry get worried when they are not famous, but once they are, they would have more worries."
Nina complained about the show-biz, leaning her chin on Cameron's chest.
"I wish I wasn't famous. So, people won't pay attention to me. I can act as I want.
"But now every time I play a role, there would be discussions or even debates. It's quite confusing to me, because I'm the one doing the job, what is it have to do with them? If they have so many opinions, why don't they just take my role and do the performance themselves?
"I miss the time when I was just a nameless actress. I could go out without being noticed, let alone being surrounded. I could go to a lot of places. I could travel, eat at restaurants, and go shopping. I could dress the way I like. I could talk and laugh freely."
Now Nina couldn't do those things anymore. Paparazzi were everywhere. Many people couldn't understand why did celebrities need so many bodyguards. They wouldn't need that if the fans were less enthusiastic. Without the bodyguards, celebrities wouldn't be able to make a single move.
Cameron chuckled, "That doesn't sound like you."
Nina snorted without even thinking much. "I have someone to care about now, therefor I changed."
She didn't care about what people said when she was alone. In the worst case, she would just quit the show-biz. But now things were different.
The man she loved deeply had returned to her. They built a family. She wanted to keep this warmth forever. She couldn't afford to lose. She didn't want people to judge him because of her.
After she finished speaking, Cameron pinned her down in the bed with a smirk. It turned out it was his trick. He wanted to hear her say that she cared about him.
What a cunning man!
Nina was tricked again.
Nina returned to the crew with Cameron after making arrangements for Dominic. For a person like Dominic, recovering after a stroke was important. So, Nina settled Dominic in one of the best rehabilitation nursing homes in Riverside City. She hired a long-time caregiver for him.
That was the best she could do. She didn't want to care about anything else.
She didn't even pay attention to Marisa Midgarden and Cory Sanchez.
It was Sylvie's father's birthday. So, Nina asked her to go back home. Therefore, Sylvie didn't go back with Nina. Cameron was with Nina anyway, so Sylvie's absence should be fine. To be honest, Nina wanted Cameron to be her assistant for a few days.
Sylvie didn't expect to see Lucien at her door. Hearing that he was going to celebrate his father's birthday with her, she almost lost her balance. When they returned to Riverside City. Nina and Cameron went to the hospital where Dominic was directly, and Sylvie was taken away by Lucien. "Thanks for picking me up." Sylvie was somehow embarrassed in Lucien's car.
Lucien, who was about to drive, stopped the engine. He turned around, looked at Sylvie seriously, and asked, "Sylvie, may I ask you a question first?" Sylvie asked in confusion while fastening the seat belt, "What is it?"
Lucien asked with a smile, "Do you still remember we are in a relationship?" Sylvie was speechless.
She had indeed forgotten. They hadn't met after the relationship began.
That was why she said "Thank you" just now.
Lucien continued, "I am your boyfriend, I came to pick you up when you returned from another city, yet you said thank you?"
"Well..." Sylvie didn't know what to say.
If she admitted that she had forgotten their relationship, Lucien would be pissed off.
She bit her lips nervously. Her red lips aroused Lucien. He wanted to kiss her.
He was no longer angry. But he thought that they hadn't met since became a couple, if he kissed her now, she would be freaked out.
So, he controlled his desire to kiss her. His Adam's apple rolled and he said somewhat helplessly, "It's not your fault. I'm also to be blamed. I was too busy. I didn't have the time to visit you."
Sylvie thought Lucien was angry. She didn't expect him to apologize. She shook her hand quickly, "No, it's my fault, not yours."
Lucien laughed. Then he said, "Fasten your seat belt, we shall go."
He thought she must haven't been used to being someone's girlfriend. After all, he was her first love. Sylvie lived alone. Because she went on business trips with Nina very often, so she rent a small apartment.
Lucien sent her to the building. Sylvie said with an apology, "I am sorry, I'll invite you home some other day."
She hadn't been back for a long time. Her apartment must be messy. She couldn't invite anyone home now, not even her boyfriend.
Lucien nodded like a gentleman, "Alright! Take some rest, we'll eat together later."
Lucien knew that it was Sylvie's father's birthday that day and knew that she was going back to her parent's place for dinner. But Sylvie didn't mention it, nor did she invite him to come. Therefore, he had to take the initiative.
