Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 12
Emily was stunned for quite a while before she reacted.
"I, I thought she wasn't coming back."
For a moment, neither of them spoke.
Before the Hansen family went bankrupt, as Eva's close friend, Emily had mingled in high society with her for a long time. Naturally, she also knew about Vivian saving Adrian.
The two of them, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, were originally a good match. But as Eva's close friend, Emily still felt sorry for her friend.
Emily bit her lower lip, feeling indignant on Eva's behalf.
"In fact, even if she comes back now, so what? She and Adrian aren't a couple, and besides, you two are married now, and you have a child. I don't believe Adrian would make you get rid of the baby!" Eva, who had been silent all along, raised her head. "Then you might not know Adrian very well."
Hearing this, Emily widened her eyes in disbelief. "What do you mean? He would make you get rid of the baby?"
Eva replied, "He would."
Emily added, "But you haven't told him yet, have you? How can you be sure he would?"
Eva pressed her lips together. "I tested him."
"Te, tested?" Emily was instantly exasperated. "What's the point of testing? Why don't you just tell him now that you're pregnant and see how he reacts!"
Eva remained silent.
Seeing her silence, Emily continued, "Are you hesitating out of fear? I swear on my honor, if Adrian knows about your pregnancy, he would never make you have an abortion. Do you believe me?" Eva was silent for a moment, then shook her head. "I don't see the need."
After saying that, she picked up her bag and stood up. "Let's go, I'll go pay the bill."
Before Emily could react, Eva had already gone to the front desk.
Emily, fuming, had no choice but to grab her bag and follow her out.
After leaving the café, Emily walked beside Eva. Noticing her continued silence, she couldn't help but grab her.
"Eva!"
Eva stopped in her tracks and looked at her steadily.
"Wake up, trust me just this once, okay? If you didn't like him, I would never persuade you to do this! But you do like him, don't you? Happiness is in your own hands!"
"I..." Eva hesitated at her words.
Seeing her indecision, Emily asked, "Alright, let me ask you a few questions, and you answer me."
"What questions?"
"Your pregnancy will be discovered by someone sooner or later, right? The bigger the baby gets, the harder it will be to hide!"
Eva nodded.
"Are you afraid of being discovered by others?"
Eva thought for a moment and nodded again.
"Since Adrian will find out sooner or later, why don't you tell him now? What's the point of delaying?"
"Tell him, he should know about the baby's existence! Even if the outcome is the same, at least you tried, right?"
"But..." Eva's pale lips trembled slightly, her eyelashes fluttering, "If I don't tell him, maybe we can still be friends in the future. But if I do..."
Hearing this, Emily fell silent. After a long while, she sighed softly, "Eva, I know you like him, but if you can't be together, even being friends will be a torment for you! And don't you want to know how he feels about you? He treats you so well; I don't believe he has no feelings for you."
Yes, sometimes he was really kind to her. But... it was just a transaction.
If it weren't for Nora liking her, and Nora just happening to be ill, they would never have gotten married.
"Anyway, I've said all I needed to say. Think it over carefully, the decision is yours." Emily patted her on the shoulder.
Before leaving, Emily couldn't help but run over to her before she got into the car and said, "Eva, happiness is something you have to fight for yourself, understand?"
Eva reached out and pinched Emily's cheek. "I know, I'll think about it."
"Alright, then go back. Remember to call me if you need anything."
"Okay."
As soon as Eva returned to the Blackwood family, the butler greeted her with concern.
"Mrs. Blackwood, where did you go? How could you run around when you're not feeling well? What if something happened?"
The butler's concern warmed Eva's heart. "I'm fine."
"That's good." The butler looked her over from head to toe, and only after confirming she was alright did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"Mrs. Blackwood, please go upstairs and rest."
"Okay."
Eva walked upstairs and returned to her room.
After the door closed, the surroundings fell into silence. Left alone in the room, all she could think about was what her friend Emily had said.
Happiness was something you have to fight for yourself. Should she... try one more time?
Eva gripped her phone tightly.
She actually wanted to follow Emily's advice and give it a try. This thought took root in her mind and wouldn't go away.
But she didn't have the courage to tell Adrian face-to-face. Maybe she could send him a message.
As soon as this idea came to her, Eva's heart started pounding wildly, as if stirred by some stimulus.
Her hand holding the phone began to tremble and shake.
When she tried to unlock it with her fingerprint, it failed several times, and she finally had to enter the password.
Eva opened Adrian's contact.
Once she did, she felt lost again. How should she tell him?
She stared at the phone for a long time, finally deciding to be direct.
She wanted to give herself one more chance, and also give Adrian one more chance! If Adrian asked her to get rid of the baby, she would never bother him again. If Adrian wanted to start over with her... Eva's heart beat faster and faster as she composed the message: [I'm pregnant.].
Then, she closed her eyes and hit send.
Eva stared at the phone screen, her fingertips trembling violently, her heartbeat out of rhythm. 'Adrian, how will you respond? How will you feel when you know about the baby?' she thought.
