Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 99 Keeping a Distance

"It's nothing," Eva smiled and shrugged. "I just thought about things from your perspective, so I understand why you wanted to frame me. You care for her, so you understood her."

As she spoke, Adrian stared at her intently.

"So?" He clenched his teeth, his eyes turning sinister.

"What I mean is, it's normal for you to put her first," Eva paused, then added, "So I thought about it, and if I were you, I would do the same."

Eva had never been saved from death, nor had she experienced the despair that Adrian went through. But she could think, even though the emotions she was empathizing with were not even one-tenth of Adrian's. But when faced with imminent death, the feeling of suffocating in the next second, and suddenly someone reaching out a helping hand to you, who wouldn't be moved? Adrian's face turned ashen as he stared at her.

"What would you do then? Are you sure that I would truly frame you?"

Eva lowered her gaze, her long and curly eyelashes trembling slightly. "That's not important."

What was important was that she had already seen through it yesterday.

In fact, she should've realized it long ago. If she still held any delusion yesterday, then there was none left after yesterday.

She had spent the whole day shopping today, and she only felt calm in her heart.

She only wanted to do one thing now.

Wait for her grandma to finish the surgery and then leave him.

"Is that so?"

Adrian's lips curled up slightly as he glanced at the clothes she had just bought, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed. "If it's not important, then let it go."

Just let it go.

Even if it didn't matter, what could she do?

Eva stood in place for a while, and when she lifted her head again, Adrian's figure was no longer there.

She blinked lightly and left with her basket of clothes.

After that day, Eva and Adrian's relationship entered an entirely different phase.

Adrian never mentioned what happened that day.

He was cold, but Eva wasn't. She returned to the way she used to be with Adrian before Vivian returned to her home country.

In the morning, she would greet him gently and help him tie his tie. She would even pick up the vegetables for him during meals, and at night, she would prepare his bathwater. She performed the duties of a wife very tenderly.

In the eyes of others, they appeared harmonious as a couple, and their relationship seemed explosively good. Even the butler secretly believed that they had made up.

Only Adrian knew that everything Eva did was an act.

But she acted so well, like a dedicated actress, impersonating her role for twenty-four hours. If it weren't for the darkness in her eyes, Adrian might have also believed that they had truly made up. Just like today, after getting up, he put on his coat expressionlessly, tied a tie but hadn't finished when he heard Eva saying, "Adrian, the color of this tie doesn't match."

Upon hearing her words, Adrian paused in his actions, then turned his head to look at her.

When no one was around, Adrian's eyes were indifferent, looking at her as if she were a stranger.

But Eva didn't mind. She walked over and picked another tie from the box, saying, "This color matches better."

Adrian coldly accepted it.

"I'll do it," Eva grabbed the end of the tie and volunteered.

Upon hearing this, Adrian glanced at her for a moment and then mockingly curled his lips.

"Sure."

Eva stepped forward and tiptoed to tie it for him.

The two of them were very close. Adrian looked down with his eyes, and he could see the fine hair on her fair skin and her light pink lips.

There was also a faint, nostalgic fragrance emanating from her that he was familiar with. He knew she never wore perfume, so it must be the scent of her shower gel mixed with a cold scent. As he sniffed, Adrian had the urge to embrace her.

Because he used to do it before. But just as he was about to lift his hand, he saw Eva retract her hand, and then she looked up at him and said, "It's done."

The ice-cold and indifferent look in her eyes instantly pierced Adrian's heart.

All the tender thoughts disappeared in that moment.

He sneered and said, "You've worked hard, acting so realistically."

Upon hearing this, Eva was initially stunned, but then she casually smiled and said, "It was nothing, it's what I should do."

Her reaction was as if throwing a punch onto cotton, neither hurting nor itching.

Disdainfully, Adrian withdrew his gaze and walked outside expressionlessly.

"Wait," Eva called out to him.

Adrian stopped his steps, still not turning around, just standing coldly in place, waiting to hear what she had to say.

After contemplating for a moment, Eva finally crafted her words and softly probed, "Has the doctor been in touch with you about Grandma's recent condition?" Initially, Adrian thought she was concerned about Grandma, but when she asked the follow-up question, he had a rough idea of what she meant.

He mockingly curled his lips.

"Are you in such a hurry?"

Not getting angry at his retort, Eva calmly said, "Not exactly in a hurry, I'm just worried that if we delay too long, it won't be good for Grandma's health."

Adrian turned around, his eyes coldly staring at her as he spoke, "Are you worried about it not being good for Grandma's health, or are you worried about it not being good for you? Eva, are you so eager to get rid of me? Have you found your next target?"

Eva: "..."

Adrian continued to taunt her, "It was Carter last time, who is it this time? Michael?"

What was this?

Regarding Adrian suddenly mentioning Michael, Eva was quite confused. It made sense for him to suspect Carter, as Carter was previously the person her father tried to match her with. But why did he suspect Michael? Was it because of that hug at the bar that night?

But didn't Michael explain everything on the spot?

His male pride seemed to be getting too much in the way?

Oh well, it doesn't matter.

They were her affairs, in any case, she had already decided to leave, there is no need to get entangled with him because of these things.

Thinking about this, Eva smiled slightly, "Nobody does, but if you want to think that way, I can't do anything about it."

Adrian: "..."

Sure enough, she used that tactic to deal with Adrian, and he was instantly speechless, only staring at her with a dark gaze.

Eva stood there calmly, allowing him to look at her, seeming really indifferent to whatever he said about her.

After a moment, Adrian coldly dropped a sentence.

"Eva, I don't care what you think in your heart, but officially, you are still my wife, so it would be better for you to keep your distance from other men and not spread any unpleasant rumors."

Upon hearing this, Eva blinked innocently and said, "Unpleasant rumors? The unpleasant rumors in the company, weren't they all caused by you? Friendly reminder, if you don't want these unpleasant rumors to one day reach your grandmother's ears, it would be best for you to also keep your distance from other women."
