Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 557 Don't Come Together Next Time
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Adrian turn a page.
Eva's eyes widened. She wanted to say something but the sight of his furrowed brow made her hold back.
Never mind, even if he read through it quickly, it was still better for both of them to have looked over it instead of just one.
She didn't disturb him and just sat on the chair, waiting for him to finish reviewing the document.
It took Adrian a few minutes to go through the contract and when he saw her neatly signed name at the end, a faint smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
After closing the document, he heard Eva grumble, "You finished so quickly; you didn't look very closely either, and you're talking about me."
Hearing this, Adrian glanced at her.
"What's the content of the third line on the fifth page; do you remember?" He asked.
"What?" Eva was startled by his sudden question, and she looked at him in astonishment.
Adrian, however, leisurely recited the content he had just asked about.
Eva paused, then leaned over next to him and flipped through the document, finding that the third line on the fifth page was indeed as he had said. She glanced at Adrian..
Adrian's eyes sparkled with amusement, " Did I do well?"
Eva was speechless.
Afterward, Adrian ruffled her hair, "I'll take this to him; wait here for me."
With that, Adrian took the document out. As he turned around, the smile that had been on his face towards Eva disappeared instantly, and when he opened the door to hand the document to Tim, the temperature around him seemed to drop to the extreme.
Tim took the document, looking awkward.
"Stay away," said Adrian coldly.
He would have been better off not saying anything; that sentence made Tim even more embarrassed, and all he could do was nod.
"Alright, I don't have anything else; I won't disturb you and Ms. Hansen anymore."
After saying that, Tim left quickly.
It wasn't until he turned the corner that Tim stopped and let out a sigh of relief.
Despite having been used to being in upper management of big companies, he had rarely seen someone with as strong a presence as Adrian.
Clearly, Mr. Blackwood had a presence that set him apart from others.
...
After sending off the document, Adrian closed the door to the office. His slender fingers hesitated on the doorknob, contemplating whether to lock the office door again.
After all, there might be another person like Tim in the company who would knock on the office door, and even try to turn the knob and come in if there was no response. Most importantly, if they were interrupted halfway, Eva would be distracted by the disturbance. And once she started to get distracted, Adrian would find it extremely displeasing.
What he wanted was her complete immersion, as they united in both body and soul, under his guidance of course. After some thought, Adrian decided this was not a good place for flirtation, so in the end, he did not lock the door. When he returned, Eva had already tidied up the entire desk. Upon seeing him approach, she stood up nervously.
"I've sorted everything out; shall we go now?"
Adrian stood still, a smile playing on his lips as he looked at her.
"Are you in such a hurry to go back?"
Eva didn't know how to respond.
Faced with his wolfish gaze, all Eva wanted to do was instinctively avoid him. "Yeah, there's nothing left to do here, so might as well go back." Adrian had calmed down by now and wasn't in the mood to continue, but seeing her avoid him like that, he couldn't resist teasing her.
"Are you sure there's nothing else that needs to be done?"
Eva said nothing.
"Come here."
Eva hesitated and stood in place. "Maybe we should drop it?"
"If you don't come here, should I come to you?"
Eva wrestled with the idea for two seconds. After thinking of what had just happened, she finally stepped towards him.
Once she began to obediently walk up to him, Adrian couldn't help but laugh again and reach out to pinch her cheek. "Why so obedient all of a sudden?"
"Is it useful to be disobedient?"
Eva hadn't forgotten what had happened after she was caught by him.
"Indeed, it's not."
Seeing her pouty look, Adrian couldn't resist pinching her cheek again, "So remember, don't refuse me again."
With that, he bent down and kissed her smooth forehead.
As he leaned in, his warm breath brushed her face, and Eva instinctively closed her eyes, feeling only a soft warmth on her forehead.
When the soft touch on her forehead left, and Eva thought she was about to face a storm, Adrian suddenly pulled her into his embrace. Eva was startled, and then she opened her eyes.
When she realized that Adrian was just holding her and wasn't about to do anything else, she became somewhat puzzled. "You..."
She didn't know what to say next. Should she directly ask why he didn't continue? Wouldn't that sound like a tacit encouragement?
"What?" Adrian seemed to understand her thoughts, "Regretting that I didn't continue kissing you? Don't want to leave?"
"No." Eva reflexively retorted, "Let's go then."
After speaking, she pushed him away and pulled his arm to leave, fearing that if they stayed any longer, Adrian would lose control again.
And so, Adrian watched her with an indulgent smile as her delicate hand pulled him out of the office.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to close Eva's office door behind them.
When they arrived, it was with such fanfare that the whole company knew about it; the employees were still not over their excitement. So, it was impossible for them to leave quietly. "After this, when I come to the company, you shouldn't come with me," Eva couldn't help but say to Adrian with a hint of disdain as they got into the car.
Adrian raised an eyebrow.
"Why?"
Seeing her silence, Adrian asked again, "Is it because of the people in your company? Do you care about what they think so much that you don't want me to be with you?" "It's not that. I come to the company to work, and you're not part of it, so what are you doing following me?"
The two were already seated in the car, and Adrian moved next to her seat, his large hand pulling her into his embrace.
"It's your company, sure, but I'm your husband. What's wrong with a husband wanting to accompany his wife to and from work while he's recovering from an injury?" The mention of his recuperation made Eva hesitate again.
If she didn't allow him to come to the company with her, what would he do at home by himself?
Leaving him alone at home to recover... She knew he surely wouldn't be happy.
Even if he agreed, he would probably work in secret.
Just like that day in the hotel when he used the study while she was asleep.
