Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 249 Have You Gone Mad?

Because Jacob was absorbed in his thoughts, he hadn't noticed anything unusual about Eva.

Only noticing that she had stopped, he also paused and explained, "What I meant was, before Granny Blackwood passed away, Mr. Blackwood's condition hadn't worsened to this extent."

The situation with Mr. Blackwood is somewhat better. Although he also drinks, he always controls himself and refrains from drinking for a period of time before meeting Granny, so as not to be discovered by her due to the smell of alcohol on him. But since Granny passed away, there hasn't been anyone who could control Mr. Blackwood.

Jacob said a lot of words.

But Eva could only see his lips moving; she couldn't hear a single word in her ears.

Suddenly, Eva couldn't hear any sound around her. Her ears seemed to be covered in a mist, buzzing loudly, unable to hear anything. The clarity in front of her vision also decreased, at first she could still see Jacob's lips moving, but later everything became blurry and she couldn't see anything.

"Previously, Miss Morrison wanted to persuade Mr. Blackwood, but it was no use. Mr. Blackwood simply didn't listen to her, and he wasn't even willing to see her. But Ms. Hansen is different. Mr. Blackwood listens to you, so..." Jacob was interrupted by a thud from behind. He turned his head and found Eva lying on the ground.

"Ms. Hansen!!"

Eva fainted, and Jacob gently lifted her up. He called her several times, but she didn't respond. He had no choice but to quickly carry her and seek help.

When Adrian woke up, it was quiet all around, except for the sounds of hospital equipment. He was lying in bed and noticed that his hand was connected to an IV again, receiving fluids.

This scene made him feel a surge of anger. When he thought about getting up, he heard voices outside.

"Take it slow, take it slow."

Jacob, accompanied by two nurses, pushed a bed into the ward.

Adrian couldn't see who was lying on the bed, but he could see the anxious expression on Jacob's face, which furrowed his brows involuntarily.

He was the one who was sick, yet Jacob ran off to care about someone else? And now he was bringing someone to his own ward?

With these thoughts, Adrian's expression immediately turned worse.

If he hadn't been so weak, he would probably have sat up by now.

"Thank you."

After settling the person, the two nurses left.

Jacob purposely went to see them off, closed the door of the ward, and when he came back, he suddenly met Adrian's cold gaze.

He paused for a moment before reacting. "Mr. Blackwood, you're awake."

Adrian, however, looked at him icily. "What were you just doing?"

"I didn't do anything."

"Who did you bring into my ward?"

Because Adrian woke up, Jacob momentarily forgot about Eva fainting. Reminded by Adrian, he suddenly remembered and his face changed. "It's Ms. Hansen!"

Upon hearing this, Adrian, who had a cold expression, narrowed his eyes dangerously.

"What did you say?"

"Ms. Hansen fainted." Hearing that it was Eva who had just been pushed in on the hospital bed, Adrian tried to sit up abruptly. However, due to the sudden movement and his lack of strength after the rescue, he ended up aggravating his wound and fell heavily back onto the bed.

"Mr. Blackwood, please don't get up! Just listen to me!" Jacob rushed over and held Adrian down. "Ms. Hansen is fine. I've already had a doctor check on her."

"If she's fine, why did she faint? Help me up."

Adrian gritted his teeth and exerted force against Jacob, who was trying to hold him down.

Feeling his strength, Jacob eventually had to let go and helped him sit up.

Afterward, Jacob inspected the wound on Adrian's hand and confirmed it was alright before supporting Adrian with an IV drip and guiding him to Eva's bed.

Eva, in a state of unconsciousness, had a pale complexion. Even her usually crimson lips had lost their color, making her appear all the more exhausted and frail. This sight of Eva pierced Adrian's heart as if it had been struck by something.

His thin lips moved as he asked, "What happened?"

Jacob was also perplexed. "I, I'm not sure. I told Ms. Hansen that you coughed up blood, and then she came to the hospital. When she arrived, her complexion seemed fine without any issues, but unexpectedly, she fainted." "What did the doctor say?"

"The doctor said it seemed like she was overwhelmed by shock, but her physical condition is fine. They can only observe her and let her rest until she wakes up."

Overwhelmed by shock? Adrian narrowed his slender eyes. He didn't believe that hearing him coughing up blood would overwhelm her to the point of rushing over. However, he believed the doctor's assessment. But... there must have been something else that happened.

"On your way here, did anything else happen?"

Jacob sounded confused. "Nothing really happened. We were just talking on the way here. She asked me a few questions, and I was in the middle of answering when I turned around and saw Ms. Hansen collapse." Questions? Adrian felt that the reason probably lay within those questions.

"What did she ask you?"

Jacob replied honestly, "Ms. Hansen asked how long Mr. Blackwood has been sick, and I told her honestly."

"Just that?"

"Just that. Nothing else." Jacob couldn't understand why she fainted while they were having a normal conversation. Could Eva have a health problem? However, the doctor said her test results were normal, so if she fainted for no apparent reason, it would likely be due to shock.

Shock? There wasn't anything frightening in that corridor. Could it be something he said?

But he simply answered based on Ms. Hansen's question. Upon closer thought, it didn't seem like anything... Wait.

Suddenly, Jacob realized something, and his expression changed instantly.

"Mr. Blackwood, I think I know what happened."

"Blackwood, I think I know why Ms. Hansen fainted," Jacob said.

Impatiently, Adrian responded, "Go on."

"And it might... be something serious."

Adrian stared at him displeased, feeling he was being overly verbose.

"Mr. Blackwood, Ms. Hansen asked me how long you have been in this condition, and I mentioned... Granny's passing," Jacob said, struggling to swallow.

Upon hearing that, Adrian's pupils instantly dilated, his impatience forgotten.

Reacting quickly, he grabbed Jacob's collar and asked, "Are you insane?"

Adrian's reaction was intense, and he almost punched Jacob on the spot.

As he had suspected, how could she be so scared by his blood vomiting alone? There must be another reason.

Jacob felt helpless and on the verge of tears.

He hadn't thought much of it at the time, thinking that Granny was someone else's old lady to Eva, so he had just blurted it out.

But now, seeing Adrian's extreme reaction, Jacob guessed that his assumption was true.
