You Are The Apple of My Eyes
Chapter 417 Twins

"Yes, I'm pregnant." Nina reached out her hand and touched her lower abdomen. The ice on her face slowly melted away like snow thawing under the first spring sunshine, revealing the radiance of maternal love in her soft features.

Trying hard to hide his astonishment, Jett stared at Nina's midsection. When she reached out to touch her belly, she pressed her loose clothes against her skin, allowing him to see her slight baby bump. She was indeed pregnant.

But how could she be pregnant?

Jett had added medicine to Vicente's food a long time ago that should have made him sterile. He should not have been able to father children.

Jett frowned.

"Are you really pregnant? Or are you just getting fat because Vicente has been feeding you?"

The motherly warmth on Nina's face froze over once again. She shot Jett an icy look as her face darkened. When she looked at him, she saw something strange in his eyes. She asked tentatively, "Is it so strange that I got pregnant?"

"No, no. Not at all." Jett shook his head.

He answered so quickly that Nina grew suspicious. She did not know the specific details about the bad blood between Vicente and Jett, so she had no reason to suspect Jett of anything. But something did not feel right. She just stared at her new husband's cousin with narrowed eyes.

Her amber eyes were like a mirror that could reflect people's thoughts. Afraid that Nina would see through him, Jett immediately averted his gaze.

"That crazy woman scratched my wife, but I'm broad-minded and generous. I'll let go of her for now, but her penalty is inevitable. Vicente still has to get involved and fix it. Otherwise, I will report the whole thing to my grandfather, and my aunt will be sent to a psychiatric hospital."

Then, Jett left without a backward glance.

He had to investigate Nina's pregnancy.

Was it because the person he placed in Vicente's kitchen was found and killed secretly?

After Jett left, Vicente returned.

"Good afternoon, sir." The servants made way for her and bowed.

"Good afternoon." Vicente smiled all the way.

The servants were stunned. Seeing Vicente happily smiling at them was like seeing a ghost in broad daylight.

Vicente had always been strict with them. The gentlest thing she did was to just nod at them with a straight face. They had never seen her smile back at them.

The servants stood there with their mouths hanging open, staring after Vicente who seemed to be in a very good mood today.

Vicente walked briskly while taking frequent glances at the piece of paper in her right hand. She kept looking at it as if it was going to disappear any second. When she was about to enter the living room, she quickened her pace and trotted in.

She could not wait to tell Nina the good news.

"Nina, let's go upstairs. I have excellent news for you." Vicente strode over and grabbed Nina by the wrist. She was so excited that she practically dragged Nina upstairs where they could have some privacy. "What's wrong?" Confused, Nina just let Vicente take her upstairs.

Vicente winked at her and said excitedly, "It's a good thing, but I can't tell you here. My elation might expose my secret."

"What?" Curiosity now piled on to Nina's confusion.

At the moment, she remembered what happened with Jett today. "By the way, I have something to tell you, too. It's..."

"That can wait," Vicente interjected. "What I have to tell you now is more important."

Beep! They passed the retinal scan.

Vicente pulled Nina in and shut the door behind them.

As soon as they were on the second floor, Vicente switched to her real voice. Nina almost cringed at the howl of excitement that escaped her throat.

"When I got the news, I was so happy that I almost yelled in my original voice. Good thing I was able to rein in my emotions. Otherwise, I would've been found out." "What's the good news? Why are you so excited?" Nina stared at Vicente's gleaming eyes and smiled happily, feeling her excitement starting to get to her.

"Bang!" Vicente showed her the report. "This is your pregnancy test report. I promise you will be more excited than I am right now."

Nina reached for the report and asked softly, "Is there anything wrong with the results?"

"Just look!" Vicente stretched out her finger and pointed at a line of words. She could not hide her excitement any longer. "Here!"

Nina followed Vicente's finger and read the sentence she was pointing at. She read aloud, "There are two fetuses in the womb."

She did not continue reading the rest. She stared at Vicente with her lips slightly parted. She was in a daze. She could not believe what she just read.

Since Nina did not say anything, Vicente knew that she wanted to ask if she was really carrying twins. She nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, it's true. You're really having twins. I didn't pick up the wrong report I'm sure it's yours. You're having twins."

Vicente putting her hands on her shoulders. "You're going to be a mother of not one but two beautiful bundles of joy. Twin babies! Are you excited?"

"Twin babies..." Nina trailed off, staring at nothing.

"Yes." Vicente hugged Nina. "I'm so happy for you from the bottom of my heart."

"Twin babies," Nina murmured again. After a moment, she finally came to her senses and returned Vicente's hug. Her eyes started misting over. "Twin babies. I have twin babies in my belly."

"Yes, you do." Vicente pulled away and looked Nina in the eye.

Tears were now streaming down Nina's overjoyed face. All she could do was blink and chuckle.

"John and I are having two children. North Yard will be very lively in the future." Nina wept with joy and looked down at the report in her hands. Her hands slightly trembled, her heart raced, and butterflies brushed her stomach.

These two children were the products of her and John's love. They were so precious.

"I'm so happy, Vicente. I'm so happy." Nina hugged her again. "Thank you for bringing me this good news."

"You're welcome. It's my pleasure." Vicente gently patted Nina's back. After Nina let go of her, she put one hand on her hip with a sly smile and raised her chin with the other. "We're partners. We have each other's back."

Vicente switched back to her male voice, sounding like a dissolute man.

"Oh, get out of here." Nina playfully pushed her away. "Don't do that in front of the children. If my twins follow your bad example in the future, I will pin you to the ground and beat you to a pulp. "Calm down. They're only three-month fetuses," Vicente replied in a female voice. "They're not out into the world yet. They won't be able to follow my bad example just yet." "Babies can perceive the outside world from their mother's belly, so there are so many parents who do prenatal education." Now that Nina knew that she was carrying two babies, she had to be extra careful. "You're right. I'd better get it together," Vicente said seriously. "But you just said in front of the children that you would pin me to the ground and beat me to a pulp. Isn't that too violent? Isn't that a bad example for the babies?"

Nina was stunned. "It makes sense."

"Nina, you haven't set a good example yourself. Lecture me when you have, okay?" Vicente rolled her eyes at her.

Nina smiled sheepishly.

"By the way, would you like to tell your brother about this? I can get in touch with him," Vicente asked her.000000
