Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 346 It's Me and My Ex-husband
Looking at the densely filled content on the paper, Eva was left feeling only shock in her heart.
It was his handwriting, there was no mistake.
But overnight... Thinking of the eye contact just now, Adrian's dark circles seemed more severe than her own, even though his appearance was still impeccable. After a cursory glance, Eva closed the drawings and handed them back to Adrian.
Adrian was somewhat stunned.
"You... did you read it?"
Eva nodded with indifference.
Hearing her response, Adrian still had some doubts and didn't take the drawings back. "So quickly, did you really read it in its entirety?"
Eva maintained her calm tone, "Yes, I did."
Adrian looked at her.
Although she said she finished reading it, her perfunctory attitude and indifferent tone clearly indicated that she didn't take this design seriously.
He pursed his lips, feeling somewhat dissatisfied, but still spoke up, "Is it that this design doesn't meet your expectations?"
Instead of directly answering his question, Eva smiled lightly at him, "Could you please find someone else to do this design for me?" Adrian pressed his lips together and stared at her fixedly.
For a moment, he didn't know if she couldn't tell it was his design or if she was purposefully trying to provoke him with these words. After contemplating for a moment, Adrian remained silent and handed the design to the two children to look at.
Eva straightened her posture and looked at them too.
To her surprise, she thought he would explain that he was the one who made that design. She never expected him to stay silent.
However, in the next moment, Ruby became his good helper. Ruby suddenly looked at the densely packed design and curiously asked, "Wow, Uncle NightA, did you draw this?"
If Ruby weren't only five years old, Eva would really think that she did it on purpose. Adrian seemed pleased with this question and slightly curled his lips.
He reached out and gently touched Ruby's head, whispering, "Yes, I did it."
"Wow." Although Ruby wasn't quite sure what he drew, seeing the intricate content made her think it was impressive. "Uncle NightA, you're amazing."
Being praised by his own daughter was quite an experience. Adrian's mood at this moment was like walking on cloud nine, feeling as light as air, all because of his daughter's praise. "This design has almost everything in it. If you were to live in a house like this, would Ruby like it?"
"I would love it!" Ruby answered loudly.
Dylan secretly glanced at Eva. Eva sighed and turned her head to look out the window, not intending to look any longer.
If Adrian ever wanted to take their children from her, Eva felt that he wouldn't even need to compete for Ruby. Just a gesture from Adrian, and Ruby might follow him. The thought of her raising their children so hard, only to be surpassed by this father who had only seen Ruby a few times, made Eva feel bitter.
However, even if she felt so upset, she hadn't shown it in recent times. She was Ruby's mother and couldn't afford to argue with a child.
The driver pulled over not far from a breakfast bar and turned his head awkwardly, saying, "Mr. Blackwood, we probably can't go any further." Hearing this, everyone looked ahead.
Up ahead, there were two streets, one was a main road, and the other led to a nearby market. On both sides of the road were shops, and since they didn't do business in the morning, they left that area in front of their doors for setting up stalls. There were many vendors calling out to sell various things. Where there is a seller, there is a buyer, and most people go to the market at this time.
It wouldn't be a problem to drive in, but when they wanted to leave later, it would probably waste a lot of time. If they were just here today for breakfast and not in a hurry for school, they could drive in.
Just as Eva was about to speak, she heard Adrian in front saying, "Let's get off and walk in." He stole her lines. She looked at the back of his head with some dissatisfaction. "Let's go."
Adrian collected the backpacks of the two children and got out of the car with them.
The driver immediately said, "Mr. Blackwood, I'll wait for you in the car." Adrian nodded in response. Seeing this, Eva had no choice but to get out of the car as well. After getting out, she glanced at Adrian's expensive suit and said, "Are you sure you want to wear your precious suit to go to the street stall with us?" Adrian glanced back at her.
"Is there a problem? You are quite eye-catching yourself." he replied.
Upon hearing this, Eva instinctively glanced down at her attire.
In fact, she was dressed quite simply for work, wearing black pants and a light blue sweater, layered with a beige long coat. It was a straightforward and simple outfit. "Don't believe me?" Adrian smirked. "Take a look around."
Only then did Eva turn her gaze towards their surroundings.
As soon as they got off the car, a crowd of people's eyes gathered on them.
Some were sizing her up, some were sizing up Adrian, and there were even those who were sizing up the two kids.
"No need to think about what to wear. Even if you showed up here with a piece of cloth draped over your face, those people would still look at you." Adrian suddenly said. Upon hearing this, Eva was taken aback.
"Let's go."
Adrian held one child and took the other's hand, walking ahead.
Eva instinctively followed his route, only realizing after a couple of steps.
Was he complimenting her with what he just said?
Sure enough, when they appeared at the breakfast bar, they attracted a lot of attention.
A handsome man and a beautiful woman, coupled with two adorably cute children, made almost everyone's eyes turn towards them.
People are always unable to resist attractive things, even though they might not have any thoughts in their hearts, their eyes and gazes would occasionally shift towards them. A glance, another glance, and a few more glances were all pleasing to the eye.
Even The shopkeeper, due to the cuteness of the children, gave them two deep-grilled cheese sandwiches and asked, "Are you two a couple?"
Eva was about to deny it when she heard Adrian say, "You have a good eye."
The shopkeeper instantly grinned from ear to ear.
"That's what I said, if it wasn't for you looking so handsome and beautiful, you wouldn't have such good-looking children."
He spoke with a particular accent and tone that Eva couldn't identify.
With Adrian's words in mind, Eva smiled at The shopkeeper and explained, "Actually, we are not a couple."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"He has a wife."
The shopkeeper froze, and even Adrian's smile in his eyes solidified.
"He has a wife but he is pursuing me, and I rejected him."
The shopkeeper displayed a look of shock.
"And those two children?"
Eva smiled lightly. "They are from my ex-husband and me."
