Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy!
Chapter 166 An Astonishing Resolve

The corner of the screen only captured a blurred image of the woman, probably only for a few seconds, before her slender figure disappeared. Accompanying that was the sound of the two little cuties running towards the woman.

"Mummy."

"Mummy, you're back. You had a long day, Mummy."

The two little darlings asked the woman with care and concern, but they were too far away to hear her voice clearly.

Before long, the two little darlings returned to the screen. "Uncle, aunt, brothers, and sisters, our mommy is back. We'll end the live stream here for today,"

Dylan Hansen explained to the screen after returning. His twin sister started making heart gestures towards the screen again. Though the people in the live chat felt a bit disappointed, as the two little darlings only streamed once or twice a week, they still said goodbye to them.

The screen went black, indicating that the host had ended the stream. Adrian stared at his phone for a moment, feeling blank.

Jacob's voice came through again. "Mr. Blackwood, we don't have much time left if we don't leave now." The next second, Adrian turned off his phone and silently walked outside.

Jacob and the newly hired assistant, who recently joined due to the company's workload, were standing by the door. Since there was more than one assistant needed, they both greeted Adrian immediately. "Mr. Blackwood."

"Hello, Mr. Blackwood."

Adrian nodded expressionlessly, his face devoid of emotion, and walked past them. The other two followed closely behind. Adrian took large strides, while the other two stayed not far behind.

The newly hired assistant, a recent graduate, was learning from Jacob and became curious when she noticed the two of them falling slightly behind.

She asked with curiosity, "Jacob, was Mr. Blackwood watching that cute darling's livestream again just now?"

Jacob nodded and whispered, "Yes, I could hear the voices from outside the door earlier."

"I secretly watched it last time too, Jacob. Have you seen those adorable darlings?"

Jacob nodded. "I've seen them."

"Really?" The intern felt a sense of camaraderie and approached Jacob, speaking in a low voice.

"Jacob, have you ever noticed that those two children resemble Mr. Blackwood?"

Jacob's expression changed drastically, and he immediately warned in a low voice, "Don't spread nonsense."

"Huh?" The intern was frightened by his serious expression.

"If Mr. Blackwood hears you say that, he will definitely be furious."

Perplexed, the intern asked, "But why? Doesn't Mr. Blackwood really like those two children?"

Jacob glanced at the slender figure in front of them and explained, "You just joined the company, so you don't know. There was a woman who came with a child claiming that she had Mr. Blackwood's baby. After examining the child, the staff realized that the child looked a lot like Mr. Blackwood."

"Blackwood looked very similar, but upon further investigation, it was discovered that the woman, in order to deceive Mr. Blackwood, actually took the child she gave birth to for plastic surgery. The child still hasn't fully recovered in some places, it's truly pitiful."

The intern remained silent.

Taking a child for plastic surgery?

Has the world gone mad? To resort to such extreme measures to achieve one's goals?

"Doesn't she know there's something called DNA in this world?"

"Criminals committing crimes also don't know if they'll eventually get caught, they all hold on to the hope of luck. Anyway, never say these words in front of Mr. Blackwood again." The intern felt a bit frustrated.

She wanted to say that the two children on the livestream didn't look like they underwent plastic surgery. Even the most refined individuals who had undergone plastic surgery would lose their natural aura, but these two children were so sharp-witted...

However, even if they looked similar, Mr. Blackwood couldn't possibly have two children of that age. After all, how could it be possible for a woman to give birth to Mr. Blackwood's child and not bring them to meet him? Just thinking about it felt absurd.

So she decided to ask about something else.

"But has Mr. Blackwood never suspected that those similar children might not be a result of plastic surgery, but actually his biological children?"

Upon hearing this, Jacob let out a scornful laugh.

"What do you think Mr. Blackwood is? Even if he's heavily intoxicated, he wouldn't lay a finger on an unfamiliar woman. That kind of self-control is not something just anyone can do."

Thinking of something, Jacob added another sentence.

"Forget about strangers, even Miss Morrison, who has been with Mr. Blackwood all these years, called a confidante, and even someone who saved Mr. Blackwood's life, he wouldn't touch her even if he's drunk." Having been Mr. Blackwood's assistant for so many years, Jacob had personally witnessed his self-control.

After witnessing it, the only way to describe it was astonishing self-control.

The intern widened her eyes in surprise. "Not even Miss Morrison? That's truly astonishing self-control!"

She had seen Vivian, that woman was gentle, beautiful, and generous. In the intern's opinion, Vivian completely met the standards of a man's ideal partner, the unforgettable kind of ethereal beauty. Yet Mr. Blackwood could resist even her.

Thinking of this, the intern remembered a gossip that had been circulating in the industry and asked hesitantly, "Jacob, I heard that Mr. Blackwood has an ex-wife? How is his self-control when it comes to his ex-wife?" Upon hearing this, Jacob's face revealed a hint of regret.

"I don't know about that. When I took over for my cousin in this job, Mr. Blackwood was already divorced. But from what I've observed, it seems that his self-control is quite strong."

Wood has already divorced. But I guess Mr. Blackwood feels the same way about her, after all, they've been married for such a long time without getting pregnant."

"Oh, I see." The intern rubbed her chin, gossiping in her mind.

"But my cousin told me that Mr. Blackwood's ex-wife was incredibly beautiful."

"How beautiful? Is she prettier than Miss Morrison?"

"I haven't seen her, but my cousin said she is a hundred times, a thousand times more beautiful than Miss Morrison."

The intern's eyes widened at this exaggerated compliment.

"It seems like your cousin really likes Mr. Blackwood's ex-wife?"

"Yeah, I heard she treats her subordinates exceptionally well and is also very competent at work."

The intern thought for a moment. A woman who could become Mrs. Blackwood must be extraordinary.

With this in mind, she looked ahead and started imagining what kind of woman could stand by Adrian's side.

Unfortunately, before she could form a rough image, a chilling voice came from ahead.

"What are you whispering about? Don't feel like working anymore?"

Upon hearing this, Jacob and the intern, who were whispering to each other, were startled by Adrian's voice and hurriedly walked apart to catch up with Adrian's pace. The intern was also brought back to her senses by his cold voice.

She had actually believed that someone as cold-hearted as Mr. Blackwood could also experience love. She was truly delusional.
