Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 129 Self-awareness Is Necessary
At this moment, Adrian's hair was messy, and his face showed anxiety. He still carried the chilling air from outside.
Eva realized that he had come rushing here for her, but she knew that he had probably been looking for Vivian outside before coming to find her.
And, he was simply too busy to have time to answer her call.
Or maybe it was inconvenient. As for why it was inconvenient, she didn't want to speculate too much.
So when he came running to find her, Eva's heart did not flutter.
But the relationship between the two still needed to maintain a surface balance, so she lightly shook her head. "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Her tone was calm, as if she hadn't been startled by this, nor disappointed by him not answering the phone.
But Adrian didn't have the leisure to dwell on these matters at the moment. He bent over and lifted Eva up.
Eva suddenly felt weightless and instinctively wanted to reach out and wrap her arms around his neck, but her hand accidentally touched the needle, causing her pain, which instantly brought her back to her senses and stopped the movement. Before she could say anything, Michael spoke up proactively. "Adrian, what are you doing?"
Adrian coldly replied, "Taking her for a check-up."
"The check-up has already been done." Michael calmly responded.
"I want to do a thorough one."
Michael's smile remained unchanged. "Didn't you see the needle in her hand?"
Hearing that, Adrian paused and only then did he notice that she was still receiving intravenous therapy. Because he had been too anxious just now, he hadn't noticed this.
After realizing this, Adrian also realized that he might have caused her pain when he lifted her up just now, so he quickly put Eva back on the bed.
"Are you hurt?" he asked softly.
Eva was placed back on the bed and listened to Adrian's gentle voice ringing in her ears, feeling a sense of sarcasm.
When she needed him, he couldn't even answer a phone call.
What's the point of these concerns now?
Fortunately, she had already figured it out long ago. She and him were not a couple, so he didn't need to fulfill those responsibilities towards her.
So she continued to smile symbolically, "I'm fine."
Her appearance made Adrian unable to help furrowing his brows. He wanted to say something, but because there were other people in the ward, he forcefully held back. "Then rest for now, and when the infusion is finished, I'll take you for a comprehensive examination."
Eva definitely wouldn't go for a comprehensive examination again. If she were really taken for an examination, her hidden secrets would surely be discovered. But if she refused, then what...
Just at this moment, Michael, who was standing beside them, timely spoke up.
"Adrian, don't you trust me enough? She has already done the necessary examinations, there's no problem."
Upon hearing this, Adrian glanced at him with a cold and emotionally charged gaze.
And yet, Michael seemed as if he hadn't seen it, still wearing a faint smile on his lips.
After a moment, Adrian thought of something, and his aura became even colder. He proposed in a chilly voice, "Let her rest in the ward, shall we go out?" Michael nodded. "Alright."
Afterward, the two of them left the ward.
Before Michael left the ward, Eva exchanged a glance with him.
Adrian caught sight of it and felt a heavier hostility emanating from him.
After the door of the ward closed, the two of them walked to the opposite side, making sure that the sound of their conversation wouldn't reach the ward.
"What happened?" Adrian's sharp gaze fell on Michael's face, filled with deep curiosity.
Hearing this, Michael took off his glasses and gently wiped them before explaining with a smile, "I heard Granny Blackwood had a surgery, and I got a bit worried, so I decided to go to the hospital to check. When I arrived at the hospital, I saw a familiar figure being taken into a car. However, I couldn't confirm it without seeing her face. Later, I went to the surgical area and confirmed it was Eva, so I got someone to save her."
Adrian also wanted to know the process of the situation, so he listened quietly.
After Michael finished speaking, Adrian frowned. "What about the person who committed the crime?"
"They were caught."
"Who?" Adrian couldn't understand.
Eva didn't have any enemies, so who would target her at this time?
Hearing his question, Michael fell silent.
Seeing this, Adrian furrowed his brow and asked, "Michael?"
Hearing this, Michael raised his gaze and thoughtfully said, "Do you really want to know?"
This question puzzled Adrian even more.
Although Eva didn't seem to have any major problems now, kidnapping is a serious matter. How could he not care about someone who intended harm towards her? Michael put his glasses back on and said seriously, "The person who kidnapped her might be quite unexpected for you. You must prepare yourself for a difficult decision." Adrian felt a sense of ominousness as soon as he heard the words "difficult decision."
Sure enough, before he could ask further, Michael said, "It's someone from Vivian's side."
Hearing this, Adrian's gaze turned cold.
"My people have already sent the name. Take a look for yourself."
Michael handed the phone to Adrian.
Adrian took the phone and glanced at the photos on it.
Immediately, he recognized them.
They were the person who had a dispute with Eva at the farewell party last time and was forbidden from appearing in front of Vivian, as well as another guy who looks like a thug. Adrian glanced at the latter, but didn't recognize him at all.
"Does he have any connection with Vivian?" Adrian pointed at Alexzander's photo.
"According to the information, he and Vivian were former classmates and he used to pursue Vivian. How about that, you've got yourself a love triangle. You didn't even know Vivian had a pursuer?" The term "love triangle" didn't sit well with Adrian, and he frowned.
Adrian looked at Michael, who seemed to have no trace of anger.
After being with Adrian for so long, no matter what, he always had a shallow smile on his lips.
Clearly, he wasn't like this before, but now it makes people feel...
Thinking of this, Adrian narrowed his eyes and asked a question that he had been wanting to ask since earlier.
"Why didn't you contact me when you found out Eva had been taken away?"
As Adrian said this, his gaze locked onto Michael, but he found that Michael still had that calm and gentle demeanor.
"Sorry, Adrian, I didn't have time back then."
Upon hearing this answer, Adrian furrowed his brows deeply.
His voice instantly turned cold and his eyes looked at Michael with a hint of mockery, as he said in a deep voice, "Was it that you didn't have time, or that you didn't want to say?"
Michael's lips still held a smile, but his words were different.
"Since you already know, why ask so clearly?"
Adrian's breath hitched upon hearing this.
"Do you like her?"
Michael smiled without saying a word, clearly implying his affirmation.
Adrian gritted his teeth. "She is my wife now."
"It doesn't matter, you two will get divorced," Michael replied.
Adrian's expression changed. "Did she tell you?"
Michael didn't confirm or deny, he simply said in a low voice, "Adrian, as a friend, I have to remind you. You need to have self-awareness. Why did you marry Eva, and why are you tangled up with Vivian now? Don't you know what you want?"
