Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 323 Are these two children yours?
How could this happen?
Did Eva give birth to twins? Does she have a son and a daughter?
But even if she gave birth to two children, it's been five years. She couldn't have been raising both children alone the whole time, right? After all, it's impossible to take care of two children alone, it's too exhausting. As well as having a job to support them.
Perhaps she has already remarried.
After coming up with this speculation, Vivian calmed down a bit and realized that she couldn't afford to lose control.
As soon as Adrian saw Ruby coming out and asking him if he was going to fight, he quickly withdrew his hand and took two steps back.
John noticed his actions. On the surface, he took two steps back, appearing as if he no longer wanted to argue with Jason about this matter. But in reality, he unintentionally included Eva and the children within his protective territory. When Dylan came out and glanced at everyone, he stood behind Eva with Ruby.
Eva was planning to take them away from this troublesome place.
Just as things were calming down, Jason erupted again.
"Adrian, what is the meaning of this? Are these two kids yours? So, you and Eva already had children long ago, then what was Vivian to you all these years? Did she deserve to be treated like this by you?"
As Jason spoke, Adrian's gaze coincidentally lowered and met Eva's wide eyes.
She had never fully opened up with him, and from the moment they met again, she had been cold and disinterested in him.
Consequently, Adrian never had the opportunity to explain the events of these past years to her.
But now, he had a perfect chance to provide an explanation and he had to seize it.
With these thoughts in mind, Adrian pursed his thin lips and coldly said, "You are so close with Vivian, didn't she tell you that we had already talked about this five years ago?"
As Adrian uttered these words, his eyes remained fixed on Eva's face, looking at her steadily.
"Talked about it?" Jason clearly hadn't anticipated such an answer and stood frozen in place for a moment before turning his head to ask Vivian.
"Vivian, what exactly is going on here? What did you guys discuss? Is there something I don't know?"
Vivian, who had finally managed to convince herself to calm down, already had an unpleasant complexion that was devoid of all color. She bit her lower lip and stood there.
She had never expected Adrian to reveal this matter.
Originally, nobody knew about this incident because she had tried to force him to come on the day of their engagement, but he never showed up. After she went to look for him, he had said a few things to her. "Vivian, this shouldn't happen anymore in the future."
At that time, they were in his office, and Adrian stood by the floor-to-ceiling window with his back turned to her. All Vivian could see was his cold silhouette.
Vivian clenched her teeth and said, "But didn't you say before that your place is with me? And besides, you're divorced from her now. Even if we get engaged, what's wrong with that?"
Adrian remained silent for a long time. A very long time before finally saying, "I'm sorry for the favor you did for me. I will replace another way to repay you."
"Why?" Vivian questioned, "Wasn't everything fine before? Why did it suddenly become like this? Why?"
She couldn't control herself and grabbed onto his clothing, tears streaming down her face. "Is it because I went abroad for those few years and you were angry with me? But back then, I didn't refuse you on purpose. You know that the opportunity to go abroad was rare for me, and if I had given it up, someone else would have taken it."
Adrian pursed his thin lips and still did not respond to her words.
"Adrian, please just say something? Even a convict on death row should know what crime they committed before they die, right? Can't you, for the sake of the debt you owe me for saving you, let me know why?"
At the mention of the debt, the indifferent man seemed to have touched something deep inside him.
Finally moving, he turned around and gave her a deep look.
"Initially, it was out of gratitude that I wanted to save that position for you, but as I grew older, I realized that if I really gave you that position, it would be unfair for both of us." "Unfair?" Vivian looked at him in confusion. "Why would it be unfair for me?"
Adrian gazed at her with a calm expression.
He hardly needed to say anything, his expression said it all.
But Vivian couldn't believe it.
Perhaps sensing her unwillingness to give up, Adrian spoke calmly, "Can a marriage without love bring happiness? Vivian, you deserve a better man, one who can love you." Without love?
Vivian liked him, but when he mentioned the lack of love, wasn't he referring to himself?
"In the future, whatever you need or lack, I will do my best to compensate for that, except for this."
Vivian bit her lip, her eyes becoming teary.
"What if I say I insist on having this?"
Adrian gave her a deep look. "If that's the case, then there's nothing I can do about it."
Afterward, Vivian went crazy for a while, going to his company every day to cause trouble, even enlisting the help of her parents. However, Adrian's temperament was truly stable. No matter how she behaved, he never got angry. Perhaps it was because he still held the title of 'benefactor'.
Although he wasn't angry, he also didn't pay much attention to her.
After he didn't show up for their engagement banquet, the news of her abandonment seemed to sprout wings and spread everywhere. At that time, wherever she went, she would be mocked.
As time went on, Vivian's mother gave her advice, telling her not to confront Adrian head-on anymore.
"Are you stupid? If he's not currently interested in you, then no matter what you do, it won't work. Moreover, these things you're doing now might even make him dislike you. It's not working in your favor, it's better for you to show weakness." "Show weakness?"
"Yes, show weakness. Admit that you were wrong in the past. It doesn't matter if he doesn't like you. Stay by his side as a friend, then show concern for him in the name of friendship. When enough time has passed, he will develop feelings for you. Eventually, he will marry you."
Vivian felt her mother was right. Indeed, she had been too impatient. The more tightly she held onto him at this moment, the further he would be from her.
So, she listened to her mother's advice and personally went to replace Adrian, saying to him, "Adrian, I actually think you're right. A marriage without love is unfair for both parties."
Adrian stared at her with suspicion, probably not believing what she said.
And in order to make him let his guard down, she elaborated further.
"In the past, I've always limited myself from being interested in anyone else. But since you've opened up to me, I'll also open up to you. I know now that I need to look at other options and that I won't be with you. If you truly don't like me in a romantic sense, I won't force you with a sense of obligation."
