Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 518 I Would Sincerely Thank Him

"If you don't want to hear it, then let's go inside," Eva said, having been under his gaze for a long time. She eventually turned around, preparing to leave. However, at that moment, Adrian took her hand.

"Forget it, just say what you want to say," he finally conceded to her, deciding to listen.

Although he really didn't want to hear it, he realized that if she hadn't wanted to say it, she wouldn't have followed him out while he was on the phone. Eva's brows furrowed slightly.

"If you don't like it, I don't have to say it," she said.

No sooner had she finished speaking than Adrian squeezed her hand, "Okay, just say it. I'll try not to get angry, alright?"

Upon hearing this, Eva blinked gently but did not respond.

Seeing her silently looking at him, Adrian could only lift his hand to pinch her face.

"Alright, go on and speak. I'm curious to know what you're about to say that would make me think you're making excuses for him."

His gestures and words softened Eva's heart considerably. He clearly didn't want to listen and was clearly angry, but because she wanted to say it, he had to patiently listen, even pleading with her to speak.

Thinking about how he was considering her feelings, Eva couldn't help but reach out to sneak her hand around his waist.

Adrian was startled, not understanding what she intended to do when she suddenly crashed into him, burying her head in his chest.

His beloved woman suddenly throwing herself into his arms made Adrian's stern heart soften instantly, and he stood frozen in place.

Eva nestled in his embrace.

"The things I'm about to say aren't excuses for his behavior. I just want to tell you the truth, and after you know it, it's up to you to decide what to do. I won't interfere."

"I have amnesia, and he has been taking care of me. Of course, I know you would say that if it weren't for him threatening me to go there in the first place, I wouldn't have amnesia. So, he should take care of me because it's a consequence of his actions."

"Let's just blame the amnesia on him, but my malnutrition is actually my own fault."

Eva hadn't intended to say this, but after she woke up, she thought about it seriously. Adrian could see right through her when she was eating, so there was no point in hiding it. "After his people sent you away, I lost the will to live."

Adrian's heart, which had softened because she had thrown herself into his arms, cooled instantly upon hearing that she had lost her will to live. His narrow eyes narrowed dangerously.

"What did you say??" He asked, instinctively tightening his grip on her arm. "Lost the will to live? What does that mean? Why? What exactly did he do to you?"

Eva was startled by his explosive reaction, as if he had seen a natural enemy, and his fur bristled.

"Please don't get agitated. Just listen to me slowly explain."

Perhaps it was because he thought of something else, or perhaps because her voice carried a soothing power, but soon, Adrian calmed down significantly.

"I lost my will to live not because of how he treated me, but because I felt you had already left, and thus my mission was completed. But staying by his side didn't make me happy, and subconsciously, I didn't want to hurt him, which troubled my emotions to the point of self-harm. I didn't want to be like that; it was an unconscious emotional response. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Adrian clenched his molars tightly, understanding all too well. How could he not understand?

That was to say, had he woken up a bit later or gone to find her later, she might have met with some mishap.

Adrian literally broke out in a cold sweat on his back at the thought of this possibility.

Seeing his face turn pale, Eva could probably guess what he was thinking, so she explained further, "I know what you're thinking, but don't blame yourself. Even if you had arrived later, nothing would have happened to me." He didn't speak, clearly not believing her words.

"It's true, David helped me." Mentioning this, Eva couldn't help but smile softly, "At that time, I felt that nothing mattered, and my body automatically resisted eating. It was David who found me and told me about the two children." Hearing this, Adrian paused.

He had not expected to hear the name David from Eva again. Last time, it was David who helped her escape, and now David had helped her again.

No wonder she asked about those two people when she came back, and even with amnesia, she searched for his name and photos and knew about the children.

Adrian asked, "So, he told you about me as well?"

"Yes, and about your injuries, and that you were safe. He confirmed everything and then told me."

It seemed that this David was truly a great benefactor to him and Eva.

Without him, perhaps...

"Alright, I understand. After this matter is resolved, I will thank him properly."

Thank him?

Eva felt that David didn't seem like the type to seek thanks, but since he had helped her so much, it was indeed appropriate to thank him sincerely later. "The reason I wanted to tell you this is to make it clear that he didn't hurt me."

"Yes, he didn't hurt you directly," Adrian's eyes were still heavy, "but the harm you suffered was indirectly caused by him."

At this point, Adrian thought of something, "Of course, I am also to blame."

He blamed himself for being too soft-hearted in the past, for being indecisive and for trying to repay the favor Michael did for her. Who knew that...

Now, let's consider the favor repaid.

Eva had nothing more to say.

"Anyway, I've told you the truth. From now on, you can handle it however you want."

Eva, who had narrowly escaped death, now saw many things in a different light. She had done what she could; as for what happens next, she had no control over it. She had almost lost her life and nearly missed seeing her two precious children.

Adrian looked at her and said nothing more.

The two of them fell silent for a while, then heard Margaret's voice calling them from inside.

"Adrian, does it really take that long to answer a phone call? If you don't come back soon, everyone will have finished eating."

This was a nudge to hurry up.

Adrian tightened Eva's collar and adjusted her hair.

"Alright, let's go in."

Eva looked up at him, said nothing, and just nodded.

As they approached the door, two little ones pounced on them.

"Daddy, Mommy, you've been out for so long."

Eva reached out to ruffle their hair, "But we're back now, aren't we?"

"If you don't come back soon, Ruby and Dylan will eat everything up."

Lynn also waved at them.

"It's going to get cold soon."

After the two sat down, Lynn couldn't help but reprimand Adrian, "Next time you get a call, just go by yourself, don't have Eva along with you. She doesn't eat much as it is, and if the food gets cold and unappetizing, Eva will eat even less.
