Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 143 Why Did You Get an Abortion?

However, Diana simply did not trust her.

"You told me last time that you weren't going to see him, but what happened? You went to see him again and came back feeling upset. Was it because of him?" Paula couldn't refute this statement.

After a while, she patiently explained, "Mom, I know I was wrong last time. I deceived you, but this time, I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, I promise I'll be back within half an hour." "Within half an hour?"

This timeframe made Diana suspicious as she narrowed her eyes, because if Paula were to go see that man, she wouldn't be able to return within half an hour.

Could it be that she misunderstood her this time?

"Mom, I really have something to attend to." Paula glanced at the time, her expression somewhat anxious. She was afraid of being late and Eva not waiting for her there.

Seeing that Diana was still adamant, Paula became frustrated and said, "If you continue like this, I'll leave the Zhao family and never come back again."

Realizing that her daughter was angry, Diana finally realized that continuing like this would affect the relationship between the mother and daughter. She could only say, "If you're not lying..." "Mom, of course I believe you. Paula, go ahead, but make sure to come back within half an hour," Diana said, pausing briefly before adding, "It's only half an hour, I'll wait here for you." Paula silently lowered her gaze. No matter what she said, her mother would never believe her.

"Alright, you wait here for me, I'll be back soon," Paula said without any hesitation, and left.

Inside the breakfast shop, Eva had been sitting here alone for almost half an hour. She ordered a bowl of Seattle's specialty breakfast. She didn't have much appetite, but it wouldn't be appropriate to sit here for half an hour without ordering anything.

So she later ordered a bowl of soup.

At first, there were many people in the breakfast shop, but as time went on, there were fewer and fewer people, until only Eva was left.

Eva raised her hand to look at the time on her wristwatch.

Only three minutes remained until the agreed-upon time with Paula.

Almost half an hour had passed, and there was no sign of her.

As the last few minutes approached, Eva felt that Paula probably wouldn't come.

It's not surprising though. At the hospital, she had already shown signs of not wanting to come, and her mother was a very dominant person. It was normal for her not to come back. Eva put down her chopsticks and took a sip of the soup.

Or maybe she had given her too short of a half-hour.

Should she wait for another ten minutes?

As she pondered, a slender figure entered the breakfast shop, and Eva glanced to the side, recognizing the familiar figure.

Their eyes quickly met across the room.

"Eva."

Paula quickly walked up to Eva, holding up her skirt.

"You're here."

Eva felt relieved when she saw her.

"I was worried that half an hour wouldn't be enough time for you to make it."

Upon hearing that, Paula sighed softly and said, "Actually, half an hour is plenty. I just took the wrong path and ended up going in a big circle before finding this place."

So that was it. It meant that she had already decided to come, but she got lost and that's why she was delayed for so long.

"Are you hungry? Would you like to eat something?" Eva asked.

Paula originally wanted to decline, but seeing the food in front of Eva, she said, "Then give me a bowl of soup."

"Alright."

Afterward, they both sat down and Paula took a sip of the soup with a spoon.

"Don't you find it strange that I contacted you? And that I actually came?" Eva asked.

Upon hearing that, Paula glanced at Eva discreetly, then put down her spoon.

"It is a little strange, but... I knew you wouldn't harm me."

Eva smiled at her and said, "Since you said that, should I just be straightforward? If you go back too late, your mother probably won't agree, right?"

Talking about her mother, Paula could only smile bitterly.

"Yes, she's still waiting for me at the hospital. I told her it wouldn't take more than half an hour."

Eva wasn't surprised by this outcome at all.

"Well, let me get straight to the point then."

"Alright."

"Perhaps you will find it abrupt, but believe me, I absolutely did not mean to offend you. That day in the restroom of the restaurant, I saw you and your boyfriend." Originally, she thought that Paula had invited her to talk about her pregnancy.

She didn't expect Paula to bring up something related to the restaurant.

"When I passed by that day, I accidentally overheard your conversation. I'm sorry."

Paula pulled her lips and said, "No problem, we were probably speaking too loudly that day, it's normal for people passing by to hear."

Seeing Paula force a smile, Eva continued, "After you left, I encountered your boyfriend again at the entrance, and there was another woman with him. I overheard their conversation, they seemed like a couple." At this point, Paula suddenly stood up in excitement, even knocking over the chair behind her.

Eva was startled by her action.

Even the owner of the restaurant looked over at them.

Realizing that her actions affected others, Paula's fair face turned red all the way to her neck, and she quickly apologized.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry."

As she apologized, she picked up the chair and sat back down.

She didn't say anything, just stared at the tabletop, the embarrassed blush on her face not disappearing.

"How is this possible?"

Eva looked at her, afraid that this news would be too devastating for her, so she carefully spoke, "I know that this might be difficult for you to accept at the moment, but I didn't lie to you."

At this point, Eva held Paula's hand and softly said, "You've been together with him for so long, didn't you notice anything?"

Though Paula didn't answer, she unconsciously bit her lower lip, a hint of evasion in her expression.

Seeing her like this, Eva understood in her heart.

"You knew before, didn't you?"

After all, when two people are together, they would naturally put effort into each other.

But a person's thoughts and energy are limited, and once a part of it is given to someone else, how could the person they are with not notice?

She looked at Paula in front of her and speculated in her mind.

Perhaps Paula had known for a long time, but she just couldn't bring herself to believe it.

Sure enough, before Eva could ask again, Paula admitted it herself.

"I had doubts, but I never sought confirmation."

Hearing this, Eva's eyelashes trembled slightly, "Is it that you didn't want to confirm or that you didn't dare to?"

She didn't say anything.

Eva had no choice but to continue, "Since you know now, why would you continue. You and him..."

Before she finished her sentence, Paula suddenly raised her head.

"Eva, what about you?"

"What?"

"Why did you get an abortion? Only those who are having an abortion would go to that hospital, right?"
