Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy!
Chapter 193 Wish For Nothing

"What do you mean? Where did you hear this?" Henry couldn't understand why this statement could make Adrian angry.

For a moment, he didn't know if Adrian was angry because he disagreed with this statement or because someone mentioned his Vivian.

After a moment, he had no choice but to carefully choose his words. "It's just rumors, they are just joking. Don't take it too seriously."

"Rumors?" Adrian stared at him coldly. "If it's just rumors, why bring it up in front of me? What's the matter? Is the heir of the Davis Group still so gossipy?"

With this remark, Henry didn't dare to bring up anything else, and could only quickly apologize. "Adrian, I was wrong, I shouldn't have gossiped about your affairs. It's my fault for being meddlesome. How can I make it up to you?" Adrian didn't say anything more, but his previous temper clearly indicated that Henry should never casually talk about his gossip in front of him again.

After sending Adrian to the resting room, Henry breathed a sigh of relief.

"You can rest here for a while. I'll go out and come back soon."

Adrian closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa, paying no attention.

Because he had made Adrian angry just now, Henry knew he was in the wrong and didn't dare to complain.

However, as soon as he left the resting room, his assistant shamelessly said, "Mr. Davis, Adrian is really too much. Even though the Blackwood family business is powerful, he can't treat you like this, right? After all, you are the newly appointed heir of the JT Group."

Henry glanced at his assistant and said, "So, you also know that I am the newly appointed heir? Then how do you think he should treat me? Should he bow his head to me as well?"

Upon hearing this, the assistant touched his own nose and said, "I didn't mean that. I just think he's too arrogant."

"That's because he has the capital to be arrogant. When I can sit in his position someday, I will be even more arrogant than him, you understand?" Assistant: "...Alright."

"You looked so confident. Why didn't you say that when we were inside? Why didn't you dare to point at Mr. Blackwood's nose and talk to me?" "What's the use?" Upon hearing this, the assistant replied in a sulking tone, "If I don't say it, it's because I'm afraid of adding trouble for you."

"So, you know that these words would cause me trouble? Do you also know that walls have ears? Remember, as my assistant, the first thing you should understand is what to say and what not to say. If there are things you shouldn't say in public, don't even mention them in private. Got it?"

Though feeling displeased, the assistant knew that Henry was speaking the truth and could only nod. "Understood."

"By the way, how did your contact with Emily go? Did she manage to convince Eva?"

When this matter was mentioned, the assistant's expression became even more unpleasant.

"Mr. Davis, I suggest you not bring this up. Initially, her friend agreed to help us persuade Eva, but later for some unknown reason, she regretted it and told us not to call her again."

Upon hearing this, Henry looked puzzled. "Could it be that we offered her too low of a reward?"

"It's impossible. The reward we offered her is a tempting price that anyone would be attracted to. There are others who can't afford it, let alone match it."

"If even a high price cannot entice her, it seems we need to think of other ways." Henry supported his chin with his hand and appeared to be deep in thought.

The assistant suddenly came up with an idea and suggested with brightened eyes, "Mr. Davis, if you really need this talent, why don't you make a sacrifice?"

Upon hearing this, Henry squinted. "What do you mean? Are you suggesting that I seduce her?"

"After all, you've just taken office, and if you want to cultivate your own talent, you have to prioritize the overall situation." The assistant chuckled.

"Get lost! Can you stop giving me lousy ideas?" Henry laughed and scolded.

"Mr. Davis, I'm serious. Ms. Hansen is not only beautiful but also very capable. There are more people pursuing her than those who want to hire her." The assistant tried to persuade Henry. Henry had only heard of her name and had not yet met her in person.

But he knew his assistant was speaking the truth.

However, sacrificing himself physically was out of the question.

Henry would never give up the whole forest for a single tree. Being bound by a woman or only liking one woman was something he dared not even consider. "Think of another way, increase the reward by approaching her friend again." "Okay, Mr. Davis." The assistant could only comply.

Forest Villa, located in the best area of Chicago, was a European-style retro estate purchased by the city's largest real estate developer. The entire estate, from the flowing architecture to the flowers and green plants, was designed according to history. Not to mention the classic antique-like house.

"I heard that the boss of the real estate company has a dream to live like an ancient person, with so much money that he can't spend it all. So, he specifically had this place built in order to fulfill that dream. But after it was completed, it unexpectedly became quite popular, and many young people moved in."

Eva rolled down the car window and surveyed the surroundings.

Well, it really does have an old-fashioned charm.

If it weren't for her sitting in a modern car, she could almost believe she had traveled back in time.

In contemporary means of transportation, Eva couldn't help but think that the time and space had somehow become tangled.

"I heard that this location is very valuable. When we bought it in the beginning, it was already skyrocketing in price. It wasn't easy to create something like this. So, what's the price now?"

Lisa shook her head in frustration.

"The location is indeed valuable, but as for this house..."

Hearing this, Eva showed a puzzled expression. "What's wrong?"

"The owner refuses to sell; it's currently only available for rent." Eva paused, not expecting the owner to not sell. However, for this Villa with a historical feel, if there is a market for renting, it could indeed earn more money than selling it. "The owner's intention is to say that if they were to sell, then there will certainly be middlemen who would purchase it and then rent it out at a higher price. If that's the case, then it's better for the owner to rent it out themselves, saving those who love it from spending extra money."

"I see, so the owner is a good person," Eva suddenly realized.

"That's right, I thought all businessmen were only interested in making profits."

As they spoke, smiles appeared on their lips simultaneously.

"It's not easy for you to return to the country. This time, I've rented it for you for a whole two years to keep you here. Don't blame me for not renting it for a longer time. The maximum length here is only two years; if it's any longer, it won't be available."

Upon hearing this, Eva realized something. "And the price? The rent must be expensive, you..."

"Don't even think about giving the money back to me. I won't listen to that. I rented it for myself to live in, it's just that the house is too big and living alone is too lonely. So, I invited you to live together. Why would you need to pay any rent?" Eva grasped the key point. "So, you mean, you want to live together with us?"

"Of course, after reuniting as a sisterhood, of course we should live together. You wouldn't disagree, right?"

"Of course not, I couldn't ask for more," Eva was overjoyed.
