Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 168 Just like someone's childhood
Seeing the other person claiming to be the mother of two adorable kids, Adrian's gaze turned serious, and he didn't reply. He simply lowered his eyes, expressionless, and looked at the phone, without any additional movement. Meanwhile, the people in the meeting room discreetly shifted their gaze towards him because of his action.
Come on, even the person speaking in front of the projector was stumbling over their words.
The intern had never seen such a situation before and was so scared that they tightly gripped the pen in their hand, wanting to bury their head in the notebook.
Jacob was initially shocked, but then he remained calm.
This kind of thing had become commonplace for him, actually.
After all, there had been times in meetings in the past when he would pull out his phone right in front of everyone, simply because those two adorable kids happened to be livestreaming.
Although there were regulations in meetings that no one was allowed to play with their phones.
But he insisted on doing so, who would dare to say anything to him?
Everyone could only turn a blind eye and let it pass. After all, the entire company was his, right?
Just like now, Jacob cleared his throat and pretended that nothing had happened, saying, "Let's continue."
The next second, Adrian had already casually put away his phone, clasping his hands together and placing them on the table, with a cold and sharp look on his face.
Everyone: "......"
Being stared at by him with such a icy gaze, they might as well let him stare at his phone. At least then everyone wouldn't be so uneasy as they were now.
So, everyone began to regret and secretly hoped that Adrian would look at his phone again soon.
However, they were disappointed. The meeting continued for several hours without Adrian looking at his phone again.
When it finally ended, quite a few people were trembling and felt mentally exhausted, almost collapsing from the intense focus.
It was only when Adrian closed the materials, stood up expressionlessly, and left the conference room that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness, he finally left. God knows how torturous this meeting was."
"Same here, my goodness. It felt like my butt was on fire, I didn't even dare to move. Adrian's presence is so strong."
In fact, most of the people in today's meeting were not from the Blackwood family business. It was an international meeting, with many employees from other companies.
But as soon as Adrian showed up, everyone instinctively became fearful.
"How can anyone be stronger than someone who holds such a high position at a young age and has such a commanding style?"
While chatting, some people started to gossip.
"Let me tell you something interesting. I heard that our CEO is planning to put a woman in his room tonight."
As soon as they heard something unrelated to work, the gossip fire ignited within the group, and they eagerly leaned in to ask for details.
"What? Putting a woman in Mr. Blackwood's room? Is this serious?"
"I heard Mr. Blackwood has an amazing self-control, he's virtuous. What is our CEO thinking?"
"What else can they be thinking? Obviously, they have a problem with their own mind, thinking that other men are the same as them, so they want to use this method to please Mr. Blackwood." "Ha, be careful not to accidentally make things worse and end up angering Mr. Blackwood instead."
...
After dinner, Dylan Hansen collected the used bowls and chopsticks and took them to the kitchen, while Ruby Hansen went to the kitchen to get a glass.
Clean the cloth and then took off her shoes, wanting to step on the chair to help Eva wipe the table.
"Ruby, it's good that Mommy is here."
Eva took the cloth from her hand and at the same time, she picked up Ruby Hansen with one hand.
Ruby Hansen, who failed to wipe the table successfully, pouted dissatisfiedly. "But I want to help Mommy."
"Ruby, I know you care about me, but you are still young. Help Mommy when you grow up, okay?"
After saying that, Eva reached out and gently tapped Ruby Hansen's petite and fair nose.
Listening to her, Ruby Hansen opened her big round eyes. Wearing a milky white pajama, she was as soft and fluffy as a freshly cooked sponge cake. She seemed to be seriously thinking about Eva's words, and only nodded seriously after thinking it through.
"Well, when I grow up, I will definitely help Mommy with a lot of things."
"Okay, it's settled between Mommy and Ruby. Go and play by yourself."
"Then, Mommy, kiss kiss." Ruby Hansen pointed at her own forehead.
Eva couldn't help but smile, bent down and planted a kiss on the little baby's smooth forehead. Ruby Hansen then turned around and left satisfied.
When Dylan Hansen came out of the kitchen, this was the scene he saw, and a touch of envy flashed in his eyes.
He took small steps to walk up to Eva's side, but remained silent.
Eva lowered her head to wipe the table and found Dylan Hansen standing by her feet, looking at her with expectant eyes, but his lips were pursed, like a little adult.
Eva was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she leaned down and kissed his forehead.
"Go inside and play with your sister."
Dylan Hansen, who had been a bit upset, visibly brightened up after receiving Eva's forehead kiss. But even if he was happy, he only slightly raised the corners of his lips before leaving. Watching his figure, Eva couldn't help but think of someone.
This child, Dylan Hansen... really resembles someone's childhood.
That person was like this when he was young too. He wouldn't openly show his happiness. If you didn't pay attention, you couldn't even tell his emotions.
Indeed, certain genes have a profound influence.
Actually, Eva never thought she was pregnant with twins. It wasn't until later on, when she went abroad with her father, that she had her check-up and established her medical records. Afterwards, the doctor informed her that she was pregnant with twins.
Then, she put in a lot of effort to give birth to Dylan Hansen and Ruby Hansen.
Dylan Hansen had an introverted and reserved personality, rarely spoke, and often furrowed his brows, just like his father.
On the other hand, Ruby Hansen was completely outgoing and active, with a passion for food. From birth, she ate more than anyone else and had bright eyes and a loud cry.
Eva even suspected that her cravings during pregnancy were all because of them.
Although they were born just a short time apart, Dylan Hansen became the older brother and Ruby Hansen became the younger sister.
Whether it was because of Dylan's title as the older brother or his nature, he always took special care of Ruby. In any case, the birth of these two brought warmth and companionship to Eva's lonely life. At the thought of this, a beautiful smile curled up at the corners of Eva's lips.
Her phone rang, and Eva glanced at it to see that it was a call from her best friend, Emily. Since she was washing dishes, Eva put the phone on speaker and entered the kitchen, talking to Emily as she worked. "Are you free?"
On the other end, Emily stretched lazily, yawned, and then replied, "Not really."
"If you're not busy, why did you call me?"
"I just wanted to ask you how you're considering coming back to the country?"
