Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 410 Fear and Apprehension

With Michael's order given, the subordinate smirked with the satisfaction of success.

He looked towards Eva, then suddenly, with an arm raised high, he shouted, "Charge! Retrieve Ms. Hansen and the children!"

As his hand lifted, Eva sensed something was amiss. Before she could speak, Adrian had pulled her close by her waist.

"Let's go." In a frantic state, Eva tugged at Dylan to turn around.

"Stop them!" Jacob bellowed, then swiftly followed in their tracks.

Before they had come, they had planned for such a confrontation. Their priority was to guide Eva to safety first. Someone would have to have stayed behind to deal with the aftermath.

Eva understood their intentions as she saw the others rush forward. But before she could react further, she was pushed into a car. Before she had even settled in, Ruby and Dylan were also shoved in, and Jacob hurriedly took his place in the passenger seat.

Eva, who initially thought Adrian would leave with them, was startled to find that after he had put them in the car, he remained standing there, not joining them.

Her gaze fell upon his face, showing a touch of concern as she asked, "Aren't you coming with us?"

"Jacob will take you to a safe place."

Eva's eyebrows knitted together. "And what about you?"

"I'll join you after I've taken care of things here."

Eva bit her lower lip, unable to utter a single word. What should she say? Ask him to leave with her?

"You..."

Eva's lips moved slightly, but before she could speak, Adrian suddenly bent down, cupping the back of her head, and sealed her slightly parted red lips with a kiss.

Caught off guard by his kiss, it took a moment for her to react. Just as she instinctively thought to push him away, Adrian had already pulled back.

However, he didn't leave her side. Instead, he rested his forehead against hers, his voice husky, "Wait for me to return."

With those words, he let go of the back of her head and instructed Jacob.

"Keep her and my children safe."

Jacob nodded. "Don't worry, Mr. Blackwood. I'd lay down my life to protect them."

Then, with Eva watching, Adrian closed the car door.

Eva leaned against the window, watching Adrian's face fade into the distance.

Until she could no longer see his face.

"Don't worry, Ms. Hansen, Mr. Blackwood will be alright." Jacob's voice came from the front, trying to comfort her.

Eva bit her lower lip, feeling as if Adrian's kiss still lingered on them.

How could she not worry? With the scene erupting into violence as it did, what if someone had brought a gun?

She thought she would be relieved after being rescued, but now she found herself still fearful.

"Mummy."

Perhaps due to their blood connection, both little ones seemed to sense her anxiety and grabbed her hands together. However, in that moment, Eva could only muster an ugly smile that was harder than crying. "I'm alright. We're safe now." she said, embracing them in her arms.

Closing her eyes, Eva knew that saying they were okay was just to comfort them. In reality, she was extremely worried.

Her facing Michael was one thing, but Adrian was in much greater danger.

Michael wouldn't hurt her, but Adrian? She couldn't bear to think about it and could only hope that he would return safely.

After a while, Jacob's phone rang.

"Hello, yes, Ms. Hansen has been picked up, she's in the car now."

Hearing her name, Eva looked up at Jacob.

"Who is it?"

Jacob passed the phone to her. "Ms. Hansen, it's your good friend Miss Jones."

Upon hearing it was Emily, Eva immediately answered the phone.

"Emily!"

"Eva!" Emily sounded even more excited. "Adrian finally found you, I'm sorry, we had a breakdown on the way and were unable to rescue you, but thankfully Adrian found you." A breakdown?

She wondered why she hadn't seen Emily and the others.

"Where are you now?"

"It's okay, Scrooge is here, he'll handle it. I'm just glad that I got through to Jacob's phone." Emily sighed with relief.

"That's good. I'll come to find you after I get back." Eva felt at ease.

They talked a bit more before hanging up. Emily's car had broken down, and Eva had her own troubles right now.

After handing the phone back to Jacob, Eva asked, "How did you find me?"

Jacob put away the cell phone and softly explained, "Actually, it was Miss Jones who kept sending us messages. After receiving the information about your stay at the hotel, we rushed over. But when we arrived, we did not know your specific location. It was Miss Jones who continued to call and inform us."

"I see." Having heard that, Eva understood. Adrian had indeed come earlier, it was just that she hadn't contacted him.

She had thought he didn't show up, as she had tried to reach him before but he did not answer. So, Eva didn't rely on contacting him, fearing that any chance of getting help from outside might be wasted.

As she thought about this, Jacob seemed to read her mind and directly asked, "Why didn't Ms. Hansen contact Mr. Blackwood?"

"I did try, but he didn't answer at that time. I didn't want to waste the limited opportunity I had. My situation wasn't good then and I had to be quick and discreet."

Hearing this, Jacob awkwardly reached up and touched his nose.

"This is indeed true, Mr. Blackwood is at fault for not answering your call. However, Ms. Hansen, I have to say on behalf of Mr. Blackwood that he didn't answer your call because, guessing that Ms. Hansen might be in trouble, he immediately left the country."

"Is that so?"

Since they were here now, there was no need for him to deceive her.

"So, when I was calling you guys, you were on the..." Eva started.

"On the plane." Jacob quickly finished her sentence.

Hearing this, the last of Eva's doubts disappeared.

She had been bothered that when she called Adrian, he hadn't answered right away and there had been no news from him afterwards.

When she needed him, he was nowhere to be found, not even a shadow.

But now, being told that he was unreachable because he was on the plane, Eva felt a great sense of relief.

"Mr. Blackwood has been very worried about you. As soon as we landed, we went out to look for you, so we missed Miss Jones' calls too. That was thoughtless of us. But Miss Jones did speak to Mr. Blackwood later, ensuring that from now on, he'll answer calls immediately."

"Emily spoke to him?" Eva felt a touch of amusement upon hearing this. She hadn't expected Emily to be so bold, and the thought of her friend confronting him warmed her heart. Indeed, her friends were the ones who truly cared for her.
