"You misunderstand." Vivian held her hand, in a manner that the two of them were good sisters, "How could I possibly be counting on you? Originally, after your accident, I wanted to go and help you, but Adrian kept ignoring me, so I was too

upset to empty my mind to think of anything else."

Hearing this, Julia heard the point.

"Adrian he ignored you?"

No way, how could Adrian ignore her? Wasn't she Adrian's savior?

There was no way Adrian would ignore Vivian even if he ignored anyone, right?

"Well, he basically doesn't pay much attention to me now, I'm worried if he doesn't want me anymore."

Julia, who was still very proud of herself and thought that she could use Eva's pregnancy to pin down Vivian, her face changed hard after hearing this news.

If Adrian really ignored Vivian, or there was no longer anything between him and Vivian.

Then the handle she thought she had, didn't seem to be of much use.

It was so hard for her to rely on this to easily pinch Vivian and get a million dollars.

How could this be?

"The two of them aren't divorced now?"

Vivian shook her head, "I'm not sure what's going on between them right now, I can't reach him."

"Won't you go to the Blackwood family and look for him?" Julia suddenly suggested, "Things are like this, if you don't go to Adrian, do you want to wait until Eva really takes it as the real Mrs. Blackwood before you regret?" Hearing this, Vivian was stunned.

"I ......"

She did want to go to Adrian, but she was more afraid that her actions would anger Adrian.Vivian had actually gone to the company to find Adrian, but he refused to meet her and was frequently absent from work. "He's frequently absent, so that means he still goes there, right? If I were you, I would definitely go and wait for him there," Julia suggested.

Vivian remained silent.

Julia sneered, "What are you thinking? You're the one who saved his life. He won't do anything to you."

Julia's words seemingly boosted Vivian's confidence.

And, most importantly, she had not seen Adrian for a long time.

After thinking for a moment, she gritted her teeth and said, "I understand now, Julia. I will go to the company right away. Thank you for reminding me." Julia then waved her phone at her.

"Don't mention it, just remember to transfer the remaining one million to my account, and also take care of my family's matters..."

This woman!

Vivian cursed Julia in her mind, but her face showed no hint of it.

As long as she could become Mrs. Blackwood in the future, these millions would be merely a small amount.

"Don't worry, Julia. I won't shortchange you the remaining one million."

Just one or two million, she thought. Once she fully captured Adrian's heart, she would personally send Julia to jail under the guise of blackmail. It's just a matter of time!

...

Eva returned to the rental house, and Emily greeted her.

"Why did you come back so soon?"

After saying that, Emily noticed the bag in Eva's hand and widened her eyes, "Is this all you packed? Just these few things?"

Eva smiled lightly, "Just these."

"What about your other stuff? Clothes and the bags you bought over the years, are you leaving them behind too?"

"What use are worldly possessions? Anyway, I'm leaving, and many of those things aren't even mine."

Many of them were gifts from Adrian during their time together.

Adrian truly enjoyed buying things for her, especially delicate little trinkets and objects.

He would bring back something when he went on business trips and buy something for her when he traveled abroad or saw something nice at an auction. Later, they even set up a space in the house specifically for Eva to display the things Adrian gave her.

After a while, it became full.

This time, when she left, she didn't take anything, not even the engagement ring in the bedroom.

During the Hansen family's bankruptcy, she didn't have any money at all, and everything she had was provided by Adrian.

Since she was leaving, it only made sense not to take anything.

"You shouldn't say that. Even if they are worldly possessions, they still cost money," Emily expressed her concerns.

Hearing that, Eva suddenly realized and cheerfully said, "You're right. If I had known, I should have brought more valuable things with me. At least I could exchange them for money later." Upon hearing this, Emily immediately changed her mind.

"Forget it, forget it. Since you're leaving, it's better to start anew."

"I understand that throwing away old things and starting a new life is normal. I'm just a little sad that you still have the mood to joke with me." Eva shrugged, "You said it's a new beginning, so why wouldn't I have the mood to joke?" "That's true, but after all..." Emily couldn't help but remember how Eva cried like a dog yesterday.

She softened her voice and said, "We're sisters, you don't have to pretend to be strong in front of me. If you want to cry, just cry."

Hearing this, Eva's smile faded a little. "Emily, I'm not as fragile as you think. Yesterday's sadness is already in the past. We need to move forward. Time keeps moving, the world keeps turning, and life goes on. Besides, I have a baby to take care of in the future. I don't have that much time to be sad, do I?"

Emily wanted to ask more, but seeing how strong her sister had become, she didn't want to reopen any wounds.

Even if it meant pretending to be optimistic, she could maintain it for a while. Eventually, she would genuinely become happy, wouldn't she?

Thinking this, Emily also smiled, "Well, you're absolutely right, philosopher. I should learn from you in the future." The two embraced while laughing.

After entering the room, Eva transferred her belongings into her bag. Emily watched her and asked, "Should we live together from now on?"

Before Eva could answer, Emily continued, "If that's the case, I'll definitely find a bigger house. Although the neighbors here aren't noisy, it's an old area, and safety conditions aren't that great. When you went out this morning, I looked at a few houses in the new district. They seemed pretty good. So when the time comes..."

Eva stopped packing and looked at Emily.

"Emily."

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"I don't plan on renting a house." Hearing this, Emily was momentarily stunned.

Then she quickly said, as if realizing something, "Don't worry, I know you'll need money to raise a child, so you don't have to pay the rent. I was actually planning on saving some money and moving to a better place myself. Consider it me being a freeloader sister."

"That's not what I mean. I really want to live with you, but... I'll be leaving in a couple of days."

"Leaving?" Emily's eyelashes trembled.

"Where are you going?"

"Abroad."

Although she didn't know where she would settle, her father was abroad, so she had to go find him first.

"You forgot? I promised Vivian something back then."
