Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 243 Can't Dare To?

She cares about him.

Adrian had obtained this certainty.

Even though she appeared ruthless and said many harsh words.

But... she left and came back.

She brought him to the hospital and stayed here waiting for Jacob.

What does this mean? It means she cares about him and is afraid of something happening to him.

Since she still cares about him, it means he hasn't reached a dead end with her yet, he still has a chance.

Originally, he didn't want her to know about his condition. But now that his condition has unexpectedly revealed certain things to him, why not use this to his advantage? Jacob was outside making a phone call. He didn't actually have Eva's number, but as an excellent assistant, he called Tim directly and asked him for Eva's number. Tim gave it to him without hesitation.

"I'll treat you to a meal next time."

Taking the opportunity, Cob made his call.

After dialing the phone number, Jacob quickly called Eva.

Eva just called for a car. Due to rush hour, she had to wait for a long time. When she was about to leave, she received a call on her phone.

"Ms. Hansen, help me!"

As soon as she answered the call, Eva could hear Jacob shouting frantically on the other end of the phone.

On instinct, Eva moved the phone away from her and waited a few seconds before bringing it back closer to her ear.

"Jacob?" Although she had only met him briefly, she still remembered his voice.

"It's me." Jacob nodded while gripping his phone.

"What happened?"

Because his tone seemed off, Eva made a gesture to her master, indicating to wait, and then asked.

"Ms. Hansen, Mr. Blackwood has woken up."

Upon hearing this, Eva's expression remained calm. "Oh, that's good."

"But he stopped the remaining IV drip and wants to leave the hospital." Upon hearing this, Eva furrowed her brows.

He's so seriously ill, yet he stopped the IV drip and wants to leave?

What is he thinking? Does he think his body is invincible?

"Ms. Hansen, I tried to persuade Mr. Blackwood, but he completely ignored me. Have you left? Could you come back and try to convince him?"

Upon hearing this, Eva inexplicably felt a surge of anger in her chest and replied coldly, "Jacob, if he doesn't listen to you, do you think he will listen to me?"

"Yes, Mr. Blackwood only listens to you now, so I'm begging you." Jacob sighed and spoke sincerely, "Mr. Blackwood's illness is really severe. He actually fainted and was rushed to the hospital before, but he completely disregarded the doctor's advice. I can only implore you to help."

"If he doesn't care about his own health, no one else can help him. I'm sorry."

After Eva finished speaking, she hung up the phone directly.

As the busy tone sounded from the phone, Jacob stood still in astonishment. He didn't expect her to reject him so decisively.

Does she really not care about Mr. Blackwood at all?

What should he do now? If he goes back and tells Adrian this news, Mr. Blackwood will probably be even more furious.

Turning around with his phone in hand, Jacob was about to go inside when he saw Adrian standing at the door, with a cold expression. Adrian had already removed the IV needle from his hand, but the wound hadn't been treated yet, and blood was still dripping from it.

The blood flowed from his distinct fingers, drop by drop, falling onto the snow-white hospital floor, which was a chilling sight.

After a few seconds of shock, Jacob hurriedly rushed over.

"Mr. Blackwood!"

Five minutes later, Adrian returned to the hospital bed with a disgruntled expression, accompanied by a speechless nurse.

"Seriously, even when you're sick, why do you still have to be so disobedient and cause trouble? Pulling out the needle while still on the IV drip? Does it not hurt with so much blood flowing from the wound?" "Sorry," Jacob apologized on behalf of Adrian, "I'm really sorry. Thank you for your trouble."

The nurse glanced at Adrian, who sat lifelessly there, and continued, "You're not allowed to remove the needle again. The hospital is already busy enough, so please don't create more problems for yourselves." After saying that, she left.

Once she was gone, the room became quiet. Because of this little episode, the uncle and child in the same ward looked over.

"Mom, that brother just bled a lot," the child nestled into their mother's arms and pointed at Adrian.

The child's mother held them tightly and said, "Because he didn't listen and pulled out the needle recklessly, that's why he bled. You have to listen, so you won't be the same as him."

"Yes, mommy, don't worry, I will listen."

Jacob scratched his head awkwardly and then said to Adrian, "Mr. Blackwood, if you really don't want to stay in the hospital, shall we go back to New York? We can have a home doctor come and take a look. It's time to properly take care of your health."

Upon hearing the mention of going back to New York, Adrian coldly glanced at him before lying down expressionlessly, closing his eyes.

However, seeing him willingly lie down, Jacob wondered, does this mean he's willing to stay?

That's good, let him rest temporarily in the hospital.

After Eva returned, she originally planned to discuss today's investment with Tim. But she didn't expect to encounter Michael waiting for her on the sofa when she arrived at the company. Seeing her come back, Michael stood up and grabbed her bag.

"You're back? How did it go?"

As he spoke, Michael even tidied her hair, showing an intimate gesture.

Tim, who was nearby, glanced at this scene with a hint of panic, then discreetly looked away, pretending he hadn't seen anything.

Eva felt a bit uneasy but still smiled and said, "It went okay, didn't you go back?"

"I said I would wait for you. Who would pick you up after work if I left?"

Unable to bear it any longer, Tim cleared his throat and stood up, "You two can talk first. I'll go handle other matters."

After saying that, Tim left.

In the lobby, only Eva and Michael remained.

"It's cold outside, isn't it?" Michael said as he poured her a cup of warm water, "Have some to warm up."

Eva took the cup and held it in her hands, feeling the warmth through the glass.

She didn't drink it.

"Did you agree to the investment?"

"Yes," Eva nodded, unsure if it was because of guilt, she took two sips from the cup. Michael fell silent for a moment, and for the first time, his face lost its smile.

"Are you really letting him invest in your company? Have you thought it through?"

Eva nodded, "Well, primarily because the manager has already agreed, and I..."

Michael interrupted: "What does it matter if he agrees? The company is yours, he's not the boss."

Eva hesitated a bit and said, "That's true, but he still works for my company."

Michael replied, "If you don't want to, I'll pay the penalty for breaking the contract."

Upon hearing this, Eva frowned.

"Michael, there's no need for that."

Michael also frowned, "Why? Are you unwilling?"
