Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 298 Come with Me
Eva had initially reached out for it, but upon hearing his response, she withdrew her hand. "Can't you take it out yourself?" "I'm driving, it's not convenient," Adrian explained.
Eva wanted to say that it's simple to take it out and turn off the sound, but she suspected that if she mentioned it, he would bring up his theoretical knowledge about driving licenses again. So she chose to keep quiet and leaned back in her seat.
Just endure it until we reach the company. We should be there soon.
Lost in her thoughts, Eva couldn't help herself when she heard the phone ring once again. She leaned over and reached into his pocket to take out the phone.
However, after seeing the caller's name on the screen, Eva froze in place.
The phone continued to ring.
Thinking that she didn't know how to silence it, Adrian reminded her, "Long-press the side button to silence it."
Upon hearing his words, Eva snapped out of her daze, followed his instructions to silence the phone, and wordlessly handed it back to him.
She then leaned back in her seat, staring out the window with a cold expression.
Adrian vaguely sensed that something was off, but because she had always been resistant towards him, he didn't think too much of it.
When they finally arrived at the company, Eva got out of the car and coldly asked Adrian for the keys. "The keys."
Adrian pursed his lips and looked at her, feeling like her attitude towards him had worsened, even more so than before.
"But why?" he wondered.
She was perfectly fine in the car earlier.
"Have I offended you?" Adrian asked.
Eva showed no expression. "How could you possibly offend me? Thank you for giving me a ride, but the car is mine. It would be best if you either take a taxi or have a driver pick you up." Adrian furrowed his brows, feeling that her tone was especially unpleasant.
He was about to say something, but Eva took a step back to keep her distance. "I still have a lot of work to handle at my company. I'm leaving now."
After saying that, Eva left without even turning back.
Her reaction left Adrian puzzled.
The thin line on Adrian's almost pursed lips straightened, his smile vanished, and his eyes gradually transformed from confusion to displeasure and indifference.
Until his vibrating phone disturbed the silence, Adrian took it out and answered without even looking at the screen, "What is it?"
Because Eva had stirred up his heart, Adrian was feeling extremely agitated at the moment, and even his tone of speech was impatient.
There was silence for about five to six seconds on the other end of the phone before a soft voice spoke up, "Adrian, it's me."
The familiar voice made Adrian pause. "Vivian?"
"Yes, it sounds like you're upset. Did something unpleasant happen? I called you a few times earlier, but you didn't pick up," Vivian expressed her concern.
Adrian listened reluctantly, and as he heard further, his eyes flashed. "What did you say? You were the one who kept calling me just now?"
"Yeah, I called you a couple of times, but you didn't answer. I was worried, so I kept calling. Are you mad at me? I'm sorry, I was just worried about you," Vivian explained.
Adrian's brows furrowed tightly.
Suddenly, he understood why Eva's demeanor had suddenly changed after getting hold of his phone and why she had reacted the way she did after switching it to silent mode. Although her previous attitude towards him was not good to begin with, she probably saw Vivian's calls, which was the final straw.
Realizing this, Adrian pursed his lips and coldly warned, "Don't make these consecutive calls in the future."
His voice was icy and cold, resembling the rain and snow in the winter.
There was a moment of silence on the other end, followed by a remorseful and weak voice., "I'm sorry, Adrian. I... I was just worried that something might have happened to you, that's why I..." "Worried about what?" Adrian sternly interrupted her. "If something really happens, aside from draining my phone's battery with these consecutive calls, what else can you do to help me?"
His words were direct and clear, leaving Vivian unable to refute. She could only softly apologize and promise not to do it again.
Adrian didn't have the patience to listen to her apology and ended the call after mentioning there was something important.
After putting away his phone, Adrian directly chased in the direction where Eva had disappeared earlier.
Eva returned to the company and planned to go back to her office after stepping out of the elevator. However, she unexpectedly ran into the bespectacled guy she had encountered last time at the corner. As soon as he saw her, the bespectacled guy blushed and greeted her, "Hello."
Although she was in a bad mood, Eva quickly adjusted her emotions when facing a fellow employee of her company and smiled at him, "Hmm, what are you doing here?"
The bespectacled guy initially just wanted to greet her, but he didn't expect that she would take the initiative to ask about him, causing his mood to soar.
The woman in front of him was dressed in simple winter attire, a light-colored sweater and regular high-waist jeans, paired with a light gray outer cardigan that reached her waist.
Tucked behind her head was her hair, held in place by a clip. It was a simple style, with no striking colors on her body, yet she radiated a beautiful and gentle glow, captivating people's attention.
The boy's eyes started to shine, and his ears turned red. "I-I'm here to submit a report," stuttered the boy with glasses.
"A report?" Eva asked.
"Yes." The boy handed over the folder in his hands. "It was meant to be handed to my boss, but..."
"Let me take a look." Eva reached out and took the folder.
She stood quietly in her place, flipping through the documents. After about a minute, she suddenly realized something and looked up at the boy with glasses. "If you're busy, you can go ahead. I'll give this report to the manager later." "It's fine," the boy blushed and declined, "I'm not busy, I'll wait here for you."
Adrian had just stepped out of the elevator and witnessed this scene.
Eva stood in place, holding the documents and flipping through them, while the boy with glasses stood across from her, blushing and gazing at her.
Because her head was lowered, the boy's gaze became even more blatant. His admiration was so intense that he was on the verge of confessing his feelings right then and there.
Adrian's face darkened as he walked towards the two of them.
The boy with glasses was the first to notice him and recognized him immediately when he saw his face. His eyes widened in surprise, "Sir..."
Eva heard the voice and raised her head, catching a glimpse of the boy with glasses who looked astonished while staring behind her. She turned her head as well.
Seeing Adrian, Eva was equally surprised.
Before she could speak, Adrian stood in front of her, his face gloomy as he said, "I need to talk to you."
Recalling what had happened in the car earlier, Eva turned her head away, indicating that she had no intention of talking to him.
Adrian narrowed his eyes.
In the next second, he grabbed her wrist.
"Come with me."
