Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 174 Can't Rely on You for Everything
And so, Michael obtained the entry code to her house.
Afterward, he would often personally bring breakfast over.
As the frequency increased, Eva felt embarrassed and said to him, "Actually, you can have your subordinates bring it over." Michael would then rub her head and say, "Don't you want to sleep longer? If they bring it over, the phone call would wake you up." "Don't we have the entry code?"
Upon hearing this, Michael sighed, "Do you really think I would trust someone else with your entry code?"
"What about your subordinates?"
"They can't do it either."
So unless he was truly busy, he would take care of her without a hitch.
"Have you washed up?"
Eva was lost in thought when suddenly she heard Michael ask her from across the table.
She snapped back to reality and shook her head, "Not yet. Isn't it because I heard a noise in the living room that I got up to see?"
"Still not used to it?" Michael placed a cup of warm water in front of her. "I come and you get up immediately. How is that any different from me calling you?"
Eva smiled. "There is still a difference. From when you wake me up with a phone call to the time you set up the living room, at least I can sleep a few more minutes." With that said, Michael was amused by her and reached out to tap her delicate nose.
"Why are you like a little cat?"
Eva paused, blinked her long lashes, and then laughed along, "I'll go wash up."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
When Eva finished washing up and came out, Michael was already seated next to her, holding a newspaper in his hand.
Hearing the movement, Michael looks at you".
Michael folded up the newspaper and put it into his bag.
"Here it comes."
Eva glanced at her seat and decided to go around and sit in front instead.
Michael noticed her action, his eyes darkened slightly, but he didn't show it on his face. He pushed the breakfast towards her.
"Let's eat." "Thank you."
Perhaps it was because she had just gone around and sat across from him, the atmosphere between them became a bit strange. They ate their breakfast in silence. Eva looked at Michael's handsome features and felt a pang of guilt in her heart.
He treated her so well, yet she still cared about something as trivial as a seat...
But after thinking like this, Eva felt a sense of guilt in her heart.
After swallowing the food in her mouth, she was about to speak and break the awkward atmosphere when she heard Michael say, "How's the matter going?" Hearing his words, Eva paused, "What matter?"
"Are you half-asleep?" Michael gently reminded her, "About opening the company."
Only then did Eva react.
"So you're talking about that."
She lowered her gaze and said softly, "I've figured it out, I just need to make a slight change in the location."
"Location?"
"Yes, I plan to open the company in my home country."
When Michael heard the mention of her home country, his actions momentarily paused, but they were so subtle that you couldn't see them without a microscope. Let alone the fact that he didn't look at Eva at all at that moment.
"Home country?"
"Yes, I've researched the market, and it's the most suitable in recent years."
"You've grown up. You've even learned to research the market now."
Eva: "..."
She had already become a mother of two children and it had been five years. Why does Michael always treat her as a little girl?
After praising her, Michael fell silent for a moment and then spoke slowly, "But isn't it better to open it overseas? If you open it near my company, I can help."
Eva felt a little embarrassed, "You've already supported me so much in these five years, I can't rely on you for everything."
"Rely on everything?" Michael chuckled lightly at this description, "Eva, if in these five years, you were really willing to rely on me for everything, I wouldn't have gone through all this trouble." Although she now agreed to let him bring her breakfast, it was the result of Michael's efforts. Even if he didn't do these things, Eva could still live her life well.
"Don't say that. You have already helped me a lot, if you do more, I won't be able to repay you."
"Who said you have to repay me?"
Michael looked at her with deep eyes, and his voice became lower, "Anyway, it's all willingly on my part. Even if you don't repay me, I can't do anything to you." Eva remained silent.
He couldn't do anything to her, after all, he had always respected her.
But the more she owed, the more guilty Eva felt. If she really couldn't repay it, she would feel uneasy for the rest of her life.
"Alright, relax. If you want to go back to your home country, it's fine. We'll figure it out."
"What's the problem? Worst case scenario, I'll go back to America with you." Upon hearing this, Eva, who had been looking down, suddenly looked up.
"You're going back to America with me?"
"Why not? You're going back to start a company, and I should go and help, shouldn't I?" Eva hesitated.
In fact, her decision to go back to America and start a company was not only because she had investigated the market, but also for other reasons. The main reason was that she felt Michael had been doing too much for her, and she wanted to go somewhere further away from him.
She never expected that he would make such a major decision and offer to go with her. "What's wrong? My words scared you?"
"You... before..."
"Don't worry, did you really think I wanted to go back to America with you? Eva, I'm a businessman. I wouldn't do anything without benefit. Even if you didn't want to go back this time, I would still go back. I plan to expand my market in America as well. As for the research report, my assistant gave it to me last month. Do you think I did it for you?"
When Eva heard the mention of the research report, she was relieved, but at the same time, she had her doubts. "Last month? Are you telling the truth?"
"Don't believe me?" Michael took a sip of coffee, his lips curling into a faint smile.
"If you don't believe me, go to the company later and let David show you the report."
"Don't think that I'll believe you just because you say so. I really will go and see it."
"Sure, go and see. There's nothing in my company that you haven't seen."
His straightforwardness made Eva realize that she had been too presumptuous. After all, if he hadn't prepared anything in advance and just went back to America with her, his business abroad would definitely suffer significant losses. How could a businessman let himself lose so much money?
"By the way..." Michael suddenly remembered something and took out an invitation card from his pocket. "There will be an auction in Chicago early next month. Would you accompany me?"
Eva took the invitation card and opened it, asking, "Is there anything you want?"
"Well, Grandpa's birthday is coming up, and there's an antique he is interested in that will be available at the auction. I plan to win it and give it to him as a birthday gift."
Hearing this reason, Eva nodded. "Alright, I'll accompany you then. I also need to see what gift we should prepare for Granpa Cooper."
