Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 526 It's For Your Own Good

"That's not acceptable either," Adrian's gaze was heavy as he looked at her, "Grandma is getting old, and with your frail health, if you were to faint, they wouldn't be able to take care of you." Eva: "..."

"My body is indeed weak, but I wouldn't faint just from going to a flea market, would I?"

Moreover, she felt that she was in a better state today than yesterday.

Eva believed that it would be fine for her to go out, but no matter what, Adrian disagreed with her going alone.

The starting point for both not wanting to go out was their concern for each other.

For instance, Eva was worried about Adrian's wounds, feeling that he needed to rest for them to heal quickly. Otherwise, if the wounds tore open every day, how could he recover?

On the other hand, Adrian thought she was malnourished and ate too little. With so many people at the market, if she were to faint, their grandparents would surely be flustered. Most importantly, he was afraid something might happen to her. In any case, both were reaching a peak in their consideration for each other, neither willing to give in, yet both had their own health concerns.

After a while, they were still at an impasse.

Until Margaret came knocking on the door again.

"Eva, Adrian, are you two ready yet?"

Hearing Margaret's voice, Eva instinctively said, "Mom, I'm ready; Adrian is not going."

"Ah?" When Margaret heard that Adrian was not going, she was taken aback. Before she could react and ask what was going on, the door in front of her was pulled open, and then her son's cold face appeared in front of her.

Adrian's voice was icy, his hand still propped against the door as if blocking something.

"Mom, Eva isn't going either."

Margaret: "??"

What was going on with these two? Why was each saying the other wasn't going?

"Mom, I want to go."

Eva's voice came from behind Adrian, and Margaret watched her try to squeeze past Adrian to talk to her, but Adrian's hand was always blocking her. If she moved left, his hand went left; if she moved right, he also moved right. "Adrian, move aside and let me out."

Adrian, with an expressionless face, said: "If you don't let me go, then no one goes."

"I'm not letting you go for your own good."

"Yeah, I'm doing it for your own good too."

"Why are you so ungrateful?" Eva was clearly angry.

Adrian pursed his thin lips, "Well, consider me ungrateful then."

In the past, if Eva got angry, Adrian would apologize and then compromise.

But this time, he was determined to be stubborn to the end, completely disagreeing with her going out.

"Adrian, move aside now; your grandparents will get impatient."

"If they get impatient, let them go first."

"Adrian!"

Margaret watched the scene unfold before her with a headache and squinted eyes.

"What is going on with you two? Why won't you let each other go out?"

Upon her asking this question, the two of them once again tacitly shut their mouths and said nothing.

Margaret sensed something and her aura intensified. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked at the two of them, "What exactly is going on? Are you hiding something from me?"

Eva blinked her eyes but did not respond. Margaret turned to her son, "You tell me."

Adrian pursed his thin lips and said calmly, "She just came back from abroad and is weak. I don't want her to go to crowded places."

That was the truth.

Margaret listened and couldn't find fault with that. Eva did look frail and pale, so it made sense for him to not want her to go out.

But there was another point...

"What about you?" Margaret stared at her son with a more piercing gaze, "Why does Eva not agree to let you go out?"

Adrian pursed his lips, remaining silent.

"Speak up," Margaret's volume rose a notch, even scrutinizing her own son up and down, fearing he might have been injured and was afraid to let his mother know.

The mere thought of this possibility left Margaret speechless.

However, under Margaret's gaze, Adrian still withstood the pressure and remained silent. In the end, Margaret could only turn to Eva with a gentle smile.

"Eva, if he won't speak, will you?"

She spoke so softly, gently trying to coax her to speak.

Faced with Margaret's demeanor, Eva felt somewhat helpless, "Alright then."

Hearing Eva's concession, Adrian's brows immediately furrowed. If she were to explain everything in front of Margaret...

As he hesitated, he heard Eva say, "Mom, the truth is that he doesn't agree with me going, so I also don't want him to go."

Upon hearing this, Adrian was somewhat taken aback, but his furrowed brows also relaxed, and he affectionately glanced down at her, astonished by how quick-witted she was. Her answer was seamless.

Indeed, Margaret was stunned by Eva's response, probably because she had not expected this answer at all.

Before Eva's response, Margaret was thinking that perhaps her son had suffered a serious injury; otherwise, why would they be so concerned about each other?

To think it was actually like this...

The act was complete.

At this point, Eva said with annoyance, "Mom, if I can't go, then he can't go either."

Adrian spoke up directly, "I will stay at home to take care of her and the children."

Margaret thought it over. Initially, she had planned to take the children out with the whole family, but considering Eva's condition, she realized it was indeed not suitable for her to go out.

If anything were to happen, she couldn't bear the responsibility.

If Eva didn't go, leaving her alone at home was out of the question; Adrian had to stay to take care of her. With Adrian staying, taking the two children out when there were many people around was also not ideal, in case they couldn't keep an eye on them...

With this in mind, Margaret said, "Alright, then you two stay at home and wait for us to return. I will go with the others, and if you want to buy anything, I'll buy it for you."

Adrian immediately mentioned the issue with her thin pajamas from the previous night, and Margaret agreed to buy Eva two thicker sets of pajamas.

After that, there didn't seem to be anything else they wanted.

Margaret thought for a moment, "Are you sure there's nothing else you need?"

Adrian nodded.

"Alright then, I'll just make sure to stock up on things you might need."

But Adrian shook his head, "No need, we're leaving in a few days."

Upon hearing this, Margaret was taken aback but then understood.

"That's true, you're not staying here long, so there's really no need to buy too much. I'll just get the two sets of pajamas then."

"Thank you, Mom."

Once Margaret left, Eva immediately glared at Adrian.

Because he had succeeded in keeping her from going out, Adrian was in a rather good mood and, even after seeing her glare at him, he didn't get angry. Instead, he curved his lips into a smile, preempting her outburst by saying, "I'll go bring the two kids over."
