Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 334 I Can Explain
The remark about him not wanting children made Adrian furrow his brow, and he instinctively retorted, "When did I ever say I don't want children?" His reaction only made Eva replace it more ridiculous.
"Don't act like you never said it just because you didn't say it with your own mouth."
Adrian's brow furrowed even further upon hearing this remark. It was so absurd that he could only defend himself.
"If I didn't say it with my own mouth, then why would I be responsible for it?"
Hearing this, an incredulous expression crossed Eva's face. "Adrian, don't you even have the courage to admit it?"
Adrian felt somewhat frustrated.
"If I didn't say it with my own mouth, why should I admit it?"
Eva sneered, "I never thought you would become such a coward, unable to admit even the things you've done, playing word games with me."
"When did I ever play word games with you?"
Eva asked mockingly, "If you didn't play any word games, then why won't you admit it?"
"How can I admit to something I didn't do?"
Feeling like she couldn't get through to him, Eva realized that words alone were not enough. It was true that he hadn't said it with his own mouth, and if he wanted to compete with her for the children, of course he would deny it. Eva just couldn't believe that he had become this kind of person.
Adrian saw that she not only fell silent but also had a dramatic change in her gaze and expression. Unable to bear it, he grabbed her shoulders and gritted his teeth, "Fine, since you insist, I'll agree to it now. Let's assume I did such a thing. As the person involved, can I request that we re-examine what happened back then?"
Upon hearing this, there was a slight flicker in Eva's eyes.
Admitting was one thing, but why did they need to re-examine what happened back then? Could it be that he was trying to trick her?
"If you want to convict me, don't I deserve to know what crime I've committed?" Adrian almost ground his teeth to pieces as he said this. He really had no idea what had happened back then.
But now, Eva firmly believed that he had done such a thing. She even considered him a coward for not admitting it, which already showed that there was a deep misunderstanding between him and Eva. Seeing her still silent, Adrian had no choice but to lower his stance.
"Tell me, please?"
Eva stared at him.
It took a while before she took a deep breath and then turned her head to look elsewhere, reminding him with two words.
"Text messages."
"Text messages?" Adrian was still confused by these sudden words, squinting his narrow eyes. "What text messages? Are you saying I sent you text messages back then?"
His question left Eva even more bewildered.
The event had clearly occurred, but why did he now act as if he knew nothing?
"Do you remember the text messages I sent you? Do I need to remind you about anything else?"
Adrian's brow furrowed deeply.
Text messages from her?
He carefully recalled what had happened back then, but he didn't remember himself neglecting any of her messages, nor did he recall receiving any text messages from her regarding pregnancy. With this in mind, Adrian looked at Eva and asked a crucial question.
"Did I reply to you back then?"
"No."
Sure enough, he wondered why he had no recollection. If she had sent him a message, how could he have no impression at all?
So, Adrian solemnly said, "Eva, do you believe me when I say I didn't receive this message?"
Eva pursed her lips, seemingly unsurprised by his response.
"I knew you would deny it. Since you didn't reply, it can be treated as if you didn't see it."
"I truly didn't see it. Otherwise, do you think I wouldn't reply to such an important matter? We grew up together since childhood, do you think I am that kind of person?"
"Yes, we grew up together, and I thought I knew you, but people can change. After all, Vivian saved your life, and it's not impossible for you to change for her."
"Do you think I would hurt you for her sake?"
Eva looked at him mockingly, "Don't you think you've hurt me for her sake?"
Adrian asked, "When?"
When? How could he still have the audacity to ask when?
Seeing her silent, Adrian took the initiative to speak, "If you're referring to the divorce, I can explain."
Eva didn't respond.
"When we got married, didn't we agree it was a fake marriage in advance?"
Hearing this, Eva glanced at him but didn't say anything.
Adrian continued, "What did you tell me back then? That we would get divorced after your grandmother's surgery."
"I didn't say that." Eva refuted, "You were the one who said it."
"Have you forgotten?" Adrian's smile seemed somewhat wretched. "On the morning of the fifth day after we had our first intimate encounter, you told me with your own words that we would get divorced after your grandmother's surgery." Upon hearing this, Eva was briefly stunned, clearly having forgotten about this memory.
Now that Adrian had brought it up, Eva thought about it seriously and realized that there indeed seemed to be such a memory.
At that time, it was their first intimate encounter, but alcohol played a significant role in their relationship.
So, when they woke up, they were both awkward, especially after their conversation, Adrian had been in a low mood for a long time.
She couldn't stand it, so on the fifth day of their low mood, seeing Adrian ignoring her even in the morning, she couldn't help but say, "Stop making that face all the time. Didn't I already say it was just an accident what happened that night? If it's really such a huge problem, then we can get divorced after your grandmother's surgery."
And upon hearing her words, Adrian suddenly stopped in his tracks. But she didn't take the time to see his reaction as she went straight into the bathroom.
At that moment, the feeling of being ignored by him was unpleasant. She had imagined that other couples in love would complain and show affection in their marriage. But considering her identity, her marriage with Adrian was already fake, and beneath the facade of a blissful marriage was their childhood friendship.
What else did she have?
Qualifications to act like a girlfriend, hoping he won't neglect her anymore.
Furthermore, with no delusions in her heart, she believed that Adrian had a darkened face because their relationship was destroyed. She obviously explained their relationship, thinking that it would reassure him. After all, he had helped her, so she should do something in return.
Recalling the past, Eva said coldly, "So what if it was me who said it? If it weren't for you giving me the cold shoulder every day, would I have said these things?"
Adrian narrowed his eyes, "I gave you the cold shoulder? Eva, who woke up and told me it was just a physiological need and asked for ten million dollars? You treated our relationship as a transaction?"
Upon hearing this, Eva finally understood. She looked at him with a smile and said, "What? Are you saying that our relationship is not a transaction anymore?"
