Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 197 I'm Willing to Wait for You

But even if she said that, Adrian, unlike before, didn't explain tenderly after learning that she had been wronged. He stood there indifferently, looking at her with a calm gaze. Until his stare made Vivian feel uncomfortable all over.

Vivian had to change the subject herself.

"I was just joking. How could you not want to answer my calls? Where's John? When I called you last night, he told me that you got drunk. Are you okay? Do you have a headache?" However, after she said so much, Adrian only replied with two words, "I'm fine."

Then he turned and entered the bedroom to put on a shirt.

Vivian stood in place, watching his calm figure, feeling extremely uncomfortable in her heart.

Since Adrian divorced Eva five years ago and Eva left the country, she had vanished from the face of the earth.

Vivian was surprised that she would actually keep her promise, but at the same time, she hoped that Adrian would marry her soon after his divorce.

But before she could even rejoice, Adrian seemed to have changed entirely.

He found her and said, "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I can't fulfill my promise."

Vivian was stunned in place.

For a long time, she managed to maintain a smile.

"Why? Is it because of the kidnapping incident? Do you still suspect that I orchestrated it? Adrian, I am a bit envious that Eva can be by your side, but when I'm not around, she can take care of you on my behalf. I'm grateful to her." "No one can replace you."

"What?" Vivian was in a terrible mood.

"Vivian, she wasn't taking care of me on your behalf. We weren't together back then."

Hearing this, Vivian's face turned pale, and she staggered.

"Vivian, you risked your life to save me. I will always remember that. If you ever have any difficulties in the future..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Vivian couldn't hold back.

"Adrian, what do you mean by all this? Don't you want me anymore? Didn't we agree that once I returned, you would divorce her and be with me? Why has it turned out like this?" However hysterical she became, Adrian remained calmly seated.

His gaze was calm, his expression was calm, and he didn't even have any unnecessary physical movements. He was calm to the point of almost indifference.

Finally, he just apologized and left.

Vivian went mad. She went to find him several times afterwards, but whenever she mentioned their relationship, Adrian would either refuse to see her or simply get up and leave. After a long time, Vivian realized that she couldn't go on like this and had to change her strategy.

"It was my fault before. I know you haven't sorted out your feelings yet, Adrian. Don't worry, I'm willing to wait for you, until the day you are willing to accept me." When she said these words, Vivian truly meant them.

After all, she thought that Adrian couldn't temporarily accept Eva's departure, which was why he briefly fell into the situation she created.

If she just gave him some time, he would come out of it, and they would be together.

So she was willing to wait.

But she never expected this wait to be five years.

Five years...

It seemed like just a number, but it was her five years.

Vivian watched as her age kept increasing, the high-quality men who pursued her had even started their own families, while she was still waiting.

She had thought about giving up countless times, but after waiting for so long, how could she just give up? She couldn't bear it.

And the most hopeful thing was that even though Adrian wasn't with her, he didn't have any other women by his side.

As long as she was willing to wait, plus the gratitude of being a life-saver, he would eventually be moved by her.

In these years, she even managed to move Margaret, who initially didn't want to accept her and treated her with only the kindness due to a life-saver, nothing more.

Over time, she hadn't managed to move Adrian, but she had moved Adrian's parents.

For example, this auction, Margaret happened to be interested in one of the items, so she managed to get two invitations for them to attend.

Vivian knew that Margaret was creating an opportunity for her and Adrian.

With this in mind, Vivian approached the bedroom door and knocked, but she didn't dare to enter. She just stood at the doorway and said, "Adrian, will you go to the auction tonight?"

Adrian expressionlessly fastened his white shirt, pausing at the words. He really didn't want to go, but thinking about what his mother wanted, Adrian reluctantly decided to put on a facade of filial service. "Understood," he replied coldly.

Relieved to hear that he was willing to go, Vivian standing at the door let out a sigh. Thankfully, he agreed to accompany her.

"Alright, I'll come find you later. I'll go back and prepare my dress first."

Vivian finally wore a sweet smile on her lips, knowing they would attend the auction together. Persistence paid off.

Once Vivian returned home, she hastily called for a stylist to design the most glamorous look for herself. By evening, she was wearing high heels almost fifteen centimeters tall as she went to find Adrian.

This charity auction was organized by The JT in order to secure their position. Henry had put in a lot of effort for this event, and many high-level individuals attended after hearing the news.

The highlight of the night was a mysterious surprise, which even attracted esteemed archaeologists to the venue.

When Vivian got out of the car, she almost lost her balance in the high heels. So, she waited for Adrian to get out of the car before planning to hold his hand. But Adrian, whether intentionally or unintentionally, walked forward in a way that avoided her touch.

Vivian almost tripped, and a couple of low laughter could be heard from around her. She changed her expression and glanced towards the source of the laughter. They were all wealthy young ladies who occasionally interacted with her, but they didn't have a good relationship.

Vivian bit her lip. She knew exactly what they were laughing at - mocking her for chasing after Adrian.

Damn it, if it were in the past... she wouldn't have to endure this kind of humiliation.

Unfortunately, now Vivian felt insignificant in front of Adrian, and she didn't dare to make requests. So, she could only follow behind him. After walking for a while, she suddenly regretted why she wore such high-heeled shoes. Wasn't she just making things difficult for herself? Lost in her thoughts, she noticed the person in front had stopped. Vivian approached in confusion.

"Adrian?"

Adrian stared expressionlessly at her. "You know you can't walk in high heels. Don't choose such tall shoes next time."

Embarrassed, Vivian forced a smile. "The stylist picked them. I wasn't really aware."

"Still able to walk?" he asked.

Vivian pondered for a moment before replying, "I find it a bit difficult."

She actually wanted to say, "Can you lend me a hand?"

But unexpectedly, Adrian said, "If you can't walk, have the driver take you back or change into another pair of shoes."
