Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 34

"Upon seeing this message, Eva instinctively looked up at Adrian and met his deep black eyes.

He was staring at her intently.

Eva held his gaze for a moment, pursed her lips, and turned away from him.

Adrian:...

The phone vibrated again, and Eva picked it up to take a look.

"Come over."

No, she didn't want to.

"After Grandma's surgery is done, you can do whatever you want. For now, be good and cooperate with me. Didn't you say we have a business relationship?"

After reading the last sentence, Eva finally came back to reality.

Yes, they were originally in a business relationship.

This was all consensual. Why was she being difficult now?

With that in mind, Eva took a deep breath and slowly moved towards Adrian despite having mentally prepared herself beforehand.

When she finally reached him by his side Adrian's expression could only be described as dumbfounded.

He looked at the little girl in front of him speechlessly.

Suddenly he reached out to grab her hand.

Eva was startled and instinctively avoided it but her speed wasn't fast enough and Adrian still caught hold of her hand. Then he pulled it down beside his arm with an blank expression "Hold onto me."

Eva looked at him incredulously; did he really just say that in front of grandmal

She couldn't refuse anymore since grandma was important after all.

So reluctantly, she had no choice but to hold onto his hand.

Only then did Adrian breathe a sigh of relief before withdrawing his gaze helplessly, "Hold on tight and follow me."

Impatiently, Eva said: "I know."

Granny Blackwood who had been quiet until now couldn't help but chuckled "Have you made up?"

"Eh, grandma?"

"He didn't come with you today, so I felt something was off. Since I've been staying at the nursing home, the two of you have never come separately."

Hearing this, Eva could only lower her eyes and purse her lips.

She thought she had acted well enough, but she didn't expect grandma to be so perceptive; nothing could escape her notice.

Not only did she not hide it from her, she also didn't say anything about it.

How would that work?

Thinking of this, Eva spoke up: "Grandma, we just had a little misunderstanding. It's all good now."

"It's normal for young people to have some misunderstandings. Just explain things in time. Adrian, you're a man; you should be more considerate towards Eva, understand?" Adrian: "When haven't I been considerate towards her?"

Hasn't he always done everything according to what she said? What hasn't he given in to?

This answer made Granny Blackwood dissatisfied: "I'm telling you what to do and you should agree without talking back."

Adrian: "...Okay, I got it Grandma."

Afterwards, the three of them walked around the garden for about twenty minutes. Eva was afraid that Granny Blackwood would be cold, so she suggested going back and coincidentally received a call from the hospital. "The doctor is here to do rounds, hurry up and bring Granny back."

Adrian and Eva then escorted Granny Blackwood back.

During the examination, they couldn't go in.

Eva watched as Granny Blackwood was pushed into the examination room and immediately let go of her arm held by Adrian and took two steps away from him to keep her distance.

Seeing Adrian frown at her, Eva said: "I'm going to the bathroom."

Afterwards, regardless of Adrian's reaction, she turned around and left.

Once inside the bathroom, Eva went straight to the sink and found some hand soap.

She washed her hands over and over again with a cold expression on her face.

She thought that if it were just touching Vivian alone, she wouldn't have such a reaction or feel anything towards Vivian. But as soon as she thought about how he had been with Vivian last night, she felt very dirty - psychologically disgusted kind of dirty.

The weather was already cold, and washing her hands repeatedly like this only made it harder for them to warm up again.

Eva dried off her hands before turning around to leave but suddenly stopped when seeing Adrian leaning against the doorframe outside waiting for her. He stood there with his eyes slightly lowered staring at ground while his side profile looked incredibly three-dimensional due to his facial features being so refined; you could even see his long eyelashes too!

Hearing movement behind him, Adrian raised his head and looked towards Eva whose hand he noticed had become red from all that washing earlier on.

A hint of sarcasm flashed across Adrian's eyes as he slightly parted his lips: "Did you wash your hands so many times because you touched something dirty?" Eva pursed her lips and replied, following his words: "Yeah, so I washed them a few more times."

Hearing this, Adrian's brows furrowed deeply.

This woman!

But Eva couldn't be bothered to say anything else to him and walked towards the door. However, she had to pass by Adrian on her way to see Granny Blackwood.

Eva deliberately took a few extra steps forward and walked along the opposite side of the wall against which Adrian was leaning.

Seeing this scene unfold before him, Adrian finally couldn't take it anymore and quickly stepped forward grabbing hold of her hand tightly.

"Eva, do you think I have bad habits? Do you think I'm dirty? What did I do that made you feel like that?"

He exerted great force causing Eva pain as she instinctively tried to break free but he held onto her even tighter instead.

Eva twisted her eyebrows in discomfort.

"Adrian, let go."

Ignoring what she said he continued staring at her with an intense gaze while tightening his grip further still.

Despite feeling psychologically disgusted by him now, Eva forced herself not to show any fear or weakness; instead forcing out a stiff smile: "Is there any point in doing this?" They were getting divorced soon anyway - why was he acting like this?

Adrian pursed his lips as his eyes grew colder still.

"Don't find it repulsive? Then don't act like you're avoiding me all the time! You think Granny can't tell?" Hearing this caused Eva to take a deep breath before saying:

"Okay then...before Granny has surgery done today, or whenever we come back here again for treatment in the future...I promise nothing will happen between us." She added another sentence afterwards too: "Don't worry about me either; I'll play my role well."

Adrian really needed her assurance because his grandmother was an extremely sensitive person who observed everything in great detail. He was genuinely worried that something might happen between them at this time and his grandmother would notice.

Originally, he just wanted her to cooperate with him but when he heard her say she would play her role well, Adrian's heart suddenly felt a dull pain - like a rusty knife slowly cutting through it cruelly and relentlessly.

Even his throat felt blocked up and heavy as he looked at Eva's small white face before asking in a hoarse voice:

"Did you come out looking for me last night?"
