Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 83 What Guilty Deed Have You Done?
"Scum man!"
"What did you say?" Adrian squinted his eyes displeasingly, his aura becoming more hostile. The icy voice snapped Brent back to reality.
Damn it, wasn't he just cursing in his mind for his own amusement? How did it slip out?
Brent felt speechless about himself.
However, based on his experience in the workplace, he came up with a response.
"Apologies, Mr. Blackwood, I wasn't referring to you. I just watched a trashy idol drama with my mom last night, and the male lead in it was a scum man!"
Yes, that's right, that's his explanation.
An idol drama?
Adrian furrowed his brows, staring at him. "You're thinking about this kind of stuff during work hours?"
Tch, what's wrong with thinking about this stuff? Weren't you also fooling around with women during work hours?
Brent wouldn't say these words.
"Not at all, Mr. Blackwood. It just came to mind on my way here. The drama was just too trashy, and the male lead was disgusting, entangling himself with two women. Mr. Blackwood, would you say that's a scum man?"
"I don't have time to listen to your random nonsense. Handle this acquisition proposal." Adrian threw a file at him, not paying attention to what Brent said about a man entangled with two women.
Although Brent was still cursing Adrian as a scum man in his mind, he still had to do his job. He picked up the file and muttered, "Alright, I understand."
The tone of his voice...
Adrian couldn't help but raise his gaze and look at him. Not looking was fine, but as soon as he raised his gaze, he saw Brent's eyes staring at him.
He had been working with him for so many years, when had he ever looked at him with such eyes?
Adrian squinted his eyes and asked, "Brent, are you transferring your hatred for the scum man in the TV drama onto me?"
Brent smirked at his words and said, "Isn't that right, Mr. Blackwood? You don't know that the scum man in the drama looks so much like you. So whenever I see you, I think of that scum man." Adrian: "..."
He could associate himself with a TV drama. What should he say? a good subordinate he has?
"So, Mr. Blackwood, you can't blame me for this. If anyone should be blamed, it should be that actor who looks so much like you. No, it's not just that he looks like you, he's also doing scum man things, entangling himself with two women. It's simply despicable." Even if Adrian hadn't thought in this direction before, under Brent's accusing tone and expression, he understood.
He narrowed his eyes, staring at Brent.
"Are you making indirect accusations?"
Brent exaggeratedly denied, "Indirect accusations? I didn't understand. I'm not cursing a scum man."
Adrian: "......"
Brent had a look of sudden realization: "I understand now, Mr. Blackwood. You don't think that when I criticize the scumbag in this TV drama, I'm insulting you, do you? That's impossible, Mr. Blackwood. Even though Miss Morrison always comes to your office and stays with you, I believe that Mr. Blackwood would never have anything with Miss Morrison, nor would he do anything to hurt Ms. Hansen. He's not the scumbag in that TV drama, right?"
Adrian couldn't stand listening to his rambling any longer, and interrupted him: "It seems like you've been idle lately."
Five minutes later
Brent walked out of the office with several folders in his hand, his face pale.
He looked down at the documents in his arms, the work he had to complete within the next three days, all because he had pointed fingers.
Sigh, if only he had endured it.
But whenever Brent thought about Ms. Hansen being pregnant and not being able to tell Adrian because of his uncertain relationship with Vivian, he felt a burning anger in his heart. How much pain must Ms. Hansen be in?
That's why Brent had already decided that even if Adrian oppressed him like this in the future, he would still scold the scumbag!

Eva didn't know what was happening over there, she was still handling her work.
But she hadn't been working for long when she started feeling sleepy and yawning the computer screen.
Jenny brought her water and happened to see this scene, and spoke up with concern, "Eva, are you tired? Let me handle it."
Her attentive manner surprised Eva.
"Do you know how?"
"Eva, you've been putting so much effort into teaching me lately, I've also learned a lot, I should have no problem."
Jenny simply helped her up, saying, "Eva, go rest for a while, leave this to me."
Eva wanted to refuse, taking a break during working hours wasn't ideal.
But she was so tired that she couldn't resist, and nodded.
"Alright, I'll rest for ten minutes."
"Sure."
Eva went into her resting room.
In her current position, even if she rested here for the entire day, people would only talk behind her back, but they wouldn't be able to do anything to her. Besides, she was only taking a ten-minute break.
Once she entered the break room, Eva gently touched her belly and whispered, "Little one, you're not only greedy for food, but also for sleep."
After saying that, she grabbed a blanket and fell into a deep sleep on the couch.
Outside the break room, Jenny was sitting at Eva's desk, fighting hard.
From now on, she would protect Eva!
Eva intended to sleep for only ten minutes, but ended up oversleeping. When she woke up, an hour had already passed.
As she got up and went out, she noticed Jenny still at her workstation. Jenny turned around and gave Eva a big smile.
"Eva sister, you're awake! How was your sleep? It's only been an hour; you should sleep a bit more."
While speaking, Jenny even pulled over a chair and helped Eva sit down.
Eva sat down, feeling confused.
"Eva sister, I bought you a dessert. You must be hungry, have a bite before lunch."
Dessert...
Eva glanced at the strawberry cake Jenny bought for her. It looked good and delicious.
However, Jenny's behavior raised suspicions.
"Eva sister, what would you like to eat for lunch? Let me buy it for you as well."
Eva looked at her and couldn't help but ask, "What guilty secret are you hiding?"
Why else would she be so attentive? Eva was worried that Jenny had heard the voice message from Emily earlier, so she had to test her now.
when Jenny heard her question, her expression became unnatural, and she avoided eye contact. "N-nothing,."
