Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy!
Chapter 200 Quite Capable

Vivian flipped through the catalog and carefully approached Adrian, reminding him, "Adrian, what Aunt Margaret wanted is about to come up." "Hmm," Adrian coldly responded. His gaze was still fixed on his phone.

Vivian pursed her lips. He had been looking at his phone ever since he sat down, and because of his strong purpose, he showed no interest in the items on stage before the grand finale.

But even if he had no interest, he wasn't someone who played with his phone all the time before. And what exactly was he looking at? What was so fascinating? With these thoughts, Vivian's gaze shifted to his phone screen. Upon seeing it, her eyes widened.

Vivian was somewhat stunned.

Two children??

Adrian is looking at two children?

Did she see it wrong?

But before Vivian could take a second glance, Adrian's phone screen went black.

Immediately after, she was met with Adrian's indifferent gaze.

"What are you looking at?"

Vivian snapped back to reality and subconsciously shook her head, "Nothing, I just wanted to remind you."

"Got it." Adrian put away his phone, no longer distracted, and looked straight ahead.

Seeing this, Vivian straightened her posture as well.

She couldn't understand why, but she felt something was off.

When would Adrian ever look at photos of children on his phone?

There had never been such things on his phone before.

Not to mention, how could he be interested in children after becoming such a workaholic over the years?

In the blink of an eye, Vivian thought about the scene she had just witnessed. Her face turned pale, and the color rapidly faded from her lips.

If she hadn't seen it wrong, the child in that photo seemed somewhat similar to Adrian.

Although over the years, due to Adrian's drunkenness, many women had set their sights on him, hoping to engage in relationships with him under the guise of getting drunk and then bear his children. Some even went as far as getting plastic surgery for the children.

Vivian didn't even know where these people found such means, or how they could do such despicable things, but those women did exist.

When she first saw a similar-looking child, she was startled because she knew that Eva had left while pregnant back then.

It was later discovered that the child had undergone insane plastic surgery.

Such incidents happened several times until the Blackwood family business released a statement and put an end to it.

Vivian went from initially being worried and frightened to a state of speechlessness and finally felt relieved.

From then on, she wouldn't worry if she saw a child resembling Adrian. After all, Adrian never paid any attention to these children.

But today... he was actually looking at those two children.

And with just a quick glance, Vivian couldn't help but feel that those two children bore a striking resemblance to Adrian.

The sense of pride she had just felt from gaining attention now plummeted instantly.

As the final item was being auctioned off, the host held the microphone and sighed.

"Today's auction has been unprecedentedly intense, and our items have come to a conclusion. But please, don't blink, because up next, we have..."

The staff cooperated to bring out the highlight of the event.

The host, on stage, introduced it vividly.

The atmosphere in the room became excited due to his introduction, and the tension grew stronger.

Eva lowered her head and looked through once again.

This time, the centerpiece was a piece of craftsmanship passed down from a certain dynasty. The last time it appeared, it was acquired at a high price by a mysterious individual. People have been speculating who this mysterious person might be, never expecting it to land in the hands of the Davis family.

Eva remembered something and asked David next to her.

"The Davis family..."

David had a look as if he knew what she was going to ask before she even finished, and he immediately said, "Ms. Hansen, it's the same Davis family that has been trying to poach you." So it really was the Davis family.

Looking at the scene unfolding in front of her, Eva's lips curled into a smile. "It seems like the new successor is quite capable."

"Yes," David nodded. "Indeed, he is talented and also daring enough to secure this grand finale." The bidding had already begun.

David sighed, "Looking at the atmosphere today, I wonder for how much it will end up selling."

Being the grand finale item, the starting price was already very high, and with the constant sound of bidding, it didn't take long for this rare item to reach four hundred million dollars. Four hundred million dollars, five hundred million dollars.

Every number announced in the auction seemed effortless, as if they were mere digits.

"Six hundred million dollars!!" The host suddenly exclaimed, announcing the name, "Mr. Blackwood has made a bid of six hundred million dollars. Is there anyone willing to go higher than this?" Hearing the surname, David subconsciously looked at Eva.

But Eva seemed as though she didn't hear the surname at all, sitting calmly as if it was nothing out of the ordinary.

However, David's heart was far from calm.

This wasn't overseas... this was in America.

And it was in Chicago.

Not to mention Chicago, even in the entire country, there is nobody who can afford this price and also goes by the surname Blackwood.

David felt that he could guess, and someone as intelligent as Eva should also be able to guess.

However, seeing her calm demeanor, she must have already stopped caring.

This was expected, after all, five years had passed. Five years is neither long nor short, but it can fade many things.

David felt relieved.

The bidding continued.

In truth, the price of six hundred million dollars had made many people hesitant.

Even if they really liked this rare item, once it exceeded what they could afford, nobody would bid anymore.

So, just like the previous jade bracelet, only these two sides were competing.

The gazes of the people in the venue shifted from the VIP area to the last row, where they saw two unfamiliar faces and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"What's happening today? The bidding for this rare item is already close to seven hundred million dollars, and they are still competing?"

"And the weirdest thing is that the people bidding from the back are not from the VIP area, yet they are bidding so aggressively."

"Who are these strangers? Are they intentionally driving up the price for the Blackwood family? Are they trying to offend the Blackwood family and ruin their own future?" "Whoever dares to go against the Blackwood family clearly doesn't fear the consequences."

"Family?"

Every time David raised the sign, countless people's eyes turned in their direction, glaringly bright.

He didn't really mind, but he was more concerned about Eva beside him, so he said, "Ms. Hansen, you've been sitting for a while, are you uncomfortable? Why don't you go rest first?" David's main concern was that someone among the crowd might recognize Eva, especially now that Michael wasn't here...

Mostly, he couldn't believe that person would be here today too.

Eva nodded in response to David's suggestion.

"Okay, I'll go outside for some fresh air and take a break. Contact me when you're done."

After speaking, Eva got up and left the venue directly.
