Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 233 Kisses and Hugs
In the end, Eva didn't let Michael send her to work, but he did take the two children to school. Eva went to work alone.
Because she hadn't settled down yet, she still hadn't bought a car for herself. As the boss, she commuted to work by subway or crowded buses every day, while her employee Tim had already bought a personal transport vehicle. On her way to work, her best friend Emily, who was far away on the other side of the ocean, called her.
"My Eva, lately...
Emily's voice sounded fine, and Eva's lips curled up as she softly replied, "Not bad. How have you been recently?"
"Don't even mention it. I feel like my boss is going to drive me crazy. Eva, let me tell you, I've been alive for so many years, and I have never seen a boss like him! How does he manage to exploit his employees like this?"
As Eva listened to her vent about her boss, she occasionally agreed. After Emily vented for a whole ten minutes, she said, "Forget about him. I have so many complaints whenever I mention him."
"By the way, how are you getting along with Lisa? Before I left, she told me she rented a house specifically for you two, saying you must be getting along well now. By the time I return to the country, I'm sure you'll have forgotten about me, right?"
When Lisa was mentioned, Eva's eyes dimmed slightly. Since the last time Lisa hinted that she didn't want to live with her, Eva had even moved out with Adrian to avoid causing her trouble. She didn't blame Lisa, but they hadn't kept in touch since then.
Every time Eva called Lisa, she would give a few perfunctory responses before hastily hanging up. After a few times, Eva realized that Lisa probably didn't want to stay in contact with her. If she really didn't want to be in touch anymore, as adults, she wouldn't continue to harass the other person.
However, with Emily not by her side now, Eva didn't want to tell her about all this and add to her worries. She simply smiled and said, "The house is beautiful. Don't worry, there will definitely be a place for you when you come back. No need to worry about not having a spot."
"Alright then, make sure to save the best spot for me, I'll take over when I come back."
"Okay."
After chatting for a while, Emily began asking about Eva and Michael's relationship. Eva still didn't want to say much about her relationship with Michael.
Emily could only sigh. "Alright, alright, just think about it seriously. After all, this is your lifelong matter."
"I know, you worry about me all the time."
"I'm just caring about you. Don't you need my concern anymore? I knew it, you've forgotten about me since you've got Lisa."
Emily started acting spoiled again, and Eva laughed as she spoke while hearing the subway announcement. "Alright, I've arrived at my stop. We'll talk another day."
"Okay, let's talk another day." After hanging up the phone, Eva left the subway station.
Because she had arranged to meet Henry today, she didn't go to the company but went to replace him directly.
After getting off the subway, the JT Group was not far away, so Eva walked there directly.
When she arrived at the JT Group, Eva went straight to the front desk.
"Hello, I'm looking for Mr. Davis," she said to the receptionist.
The receptionist glanced at Eva's attire and then at her beautiful face with a somewhat lazy expression, asking, "May I ask who you are?"
Eva replied seriously, "My last name is Hansen, and I had an appointment with Mr. Davis yesterday."
The receptionist's expression softened as she finally recognized Eva.
Some to be casual, but after hearing her say that her surname is Hansen, their attitude immediately changed.
"Excuse me, are you Eva Hansen?"
The change in attitude also surprised Eva, who nodded.
"Miss Hansen, Mr. Davis has instructed us that if you arrived, we should take you upstairs directly."
"Is that so?" This surprised Eva a bit. "Mr. Davis is considerate."
The receptionist smiled mysteriously and then led her to take the elevator.
"This is Mr. Davis's private elevator. You can go straight to the top floor."
Inside the elevator, the receptionist entered a temporary password for her and then sent her to the top floor.
As the elevator doors closed, Eva suddenly remembered that she forgot to ask which office it was.
When she arrived at the top floor, Eva realized there was only one office.
So, there wasn't really anything to ask.
The office door was closed, and Eva walked up and knocked.
A deep voice came from inside.
"Come in."
This voice made Eva pause.
Although she hadn't gotten to the point of recognizing Henry's voice, the deliberately deep voice made Eva inexplicably feel somewhat familiar. Eva was still thinking in place when the office door suddenly opened.
A handsome face suddenly appeared in front of Eva.
The person had a tall figure, neat black hair, and there was a coldness in his eyes that seemed to be tempered by snow, which fell upon her. Adrian!
When she saw him, Eva's face changed, and a speechless emotion flooded her heart. Immediately, she turned and left.
"Not here to replace someone? Leaving so soon?"
After he reminded her, Eva paused in her tracks, only then realizing that she had come to replace someone.
She turned her head, asking coldly, "Where's Henry?"
Adrian: "You came to talk about work with him?"
He tugged at the corner of his lips. "Looking for investment?"
Hearing this, Eva's expression slightly changed.
If she remembered correctly, she didn't clarify that she came to replace Henry for investment. How did he know?
Could it be that he investigated her?
At the thought of this possibility, Eva's expression changed.
"Why didn't you come to me if you wanted investment?" Adrian asked.
Eva remained silent, still observing Adrian's expression. If he knew about the two children, he probably wouldn't be this calm.
So how did he know that she came to replace Henry for investment?
Seeing her silence, Adrian probably guessed what was on her mind. He narrowed his eyes and said, "He doesn't dare offend me. If you want investment, you can come to me." Hearing this, Eva looked away.
Seeing him like this, she finally confirmed that he didn't know about the children. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "No need. If he doesn't want to invest because he's afraid to offend you, then I can replace someone else." Upon hearing this, a dark expression suddenly appeared on Adrian's face, and he said coldly, "Without my approval, do you think anyone will invest in your small company?"
Eva: "... Are you intentionally opposing me?"
Adrian's coldness made Eva pause.
Rather than answering, Eva retorted, "Is it me who wants to oppose you, or is it you who desperately wants to distance yourself from me?"
Eva raised her eyebrow in disdain, "We never had a relationship to begin with."
"Is that so?"
Adrian chuckled softly, his tone tinged with mockery, "We were together for two years, kissing, embracing, sleeping together. How is it that there was no relationship?"
