Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 356 Will You?

Realizing that Adrian hadn't been drinking or had a fever but was burning up all over for another reason, Eva couldn't help but swallow hard. Probably due to surprise, her lips slightly parted, and after a moment, she gently bit her lower lip.

"So, what's the reason? You know you're in this condition, why did you come to me?"

The person holding her remained silent for a long time before responding.

"I... don't know," his voice sounded somewhat lost. "Besides you... I don't know who else to turn to." With that, he held her tighter and closed his eyes, burying his face in her neck. It was uncomfortable for him, but this embrace and her scent brought him some solace. At least he knew it was her by his side and not someone else.

"You don't know who to turn to, so you come to me?" Eva asked, a mix of anger and helplessness in her voice. "What good is it for me to get involved? Given our relationship, do you think I would actually help you?"

After saying that, she pressed her hands against Adrian's chest and forcefully pushed him away. Adrian staggered backward, leaning against the wall. His eyes were drooping, his face flushed with heat. Despite that, he restrained himself, looking like a pitiful dog.

Eva really wanted to knock him out with a stick and send him away. It was the first time for him to be deceived by a woman like this.

"You can go wherever you want, but if you end up getting deceived like this, it's better if you don't live anymore. Just dig a hole and bury yourself."

Leaving these harsh words behind, Eva went into the house and closed the door. The sound echoed loudly in the hallway, and after the echo faded away, the hallway became eerily quiet. Only Adrian's heavy breathing remained, as he struggled to control himself.

Although it was uncomfortable, Adrian had managed to hear every word she said. Seeing himself lose control like this, she must be very angry and disappointed, right? Not to mention her, he was disappointed in himself as well.

How could he ever repay the debt of saving his life? How could he make things right again?

Perhaps he didn't deserve to have her in his life anymore, perhaps...

Adrian felt his consciousness growing fainter and fainter. It was almost as if the door that had been closed earlier suddenly opened again.

He thought he was hearing things.

But soon, a pair of slippers appeared in his line of sight. When she came out earlier, he hadn't noticed, but now he saw that she was wearing a pair of fuzzy blue slippers with cartoon patterns on them, exactly like the ones she used to love as a child.

He lifted his head slightly, his gaze lost. Eva's face was turned towards him, but her eyes didn't meet his. In a cold voice, she said, "Come in first, I'll pour you a glass of water, and then we can figure out what to do." Hearing her words, Adrian was somewhat taken aback, thinking he had misunderstood. "Are you helping me?"

"Don't overthink it!" Eva quickly interrupted him. "It's purely because you mentioned taking care of two children. Since I agreed to it, I can't just stand by if something happens to you. If you were fine today, then whatever happens to you on the road wouldn't be my concern. But now that you're here, if anything happens to you later, I won't be able to escape the consequences. So I don't want to bring trouble upon myself. Understand?"

She explained everything in detail. With the same expression and demeanor, it was unclear whether he had actually heard her words.

"Did you hear me?"

Adrian looked up. "Hmm."

Oh well, he seemed completely oblivious to what she had said, probably lost in his own thoughts. What else could Eva say to him? "Come in."

She could only step back, making way for Adrian to enter.

Adrian looked into her room but hesitated to take a step forward.

"What's wrong? Don't you want to come in? Then I'll leave..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Adrian walked directly into the room.

Once inside, Eva pulled him towards the living room sofa, instructing him to sit there and not move while she fetched him a glass of water.

"It should be cold," he suddenly said.

"What?" Eva thought she must have misheard. "You want to drink cold water?"

"I need ice-cold water, but cold is fine too."

"It's winter..."

She stopped herself midway, realizing something. Instead of arguing with him, she went into the kitchen and instinctively opened the refrigerator. Because it was winter, there was no frozen mineral water in the fridge, only some chilled beer.

Would chilled beer do?

Given his current condition, he probably needed to cool down urgently, right?

Considering this, Eva took two cans of chilled beer, intending to bring them out to Adrian. But then, she remembered that Adrian had recently been hospitalized for a stomach hemorrhage. Drinking chilled beer at a time like this...

After a brief hesitation, Eva put the two cans of chilled beer back in the refrigerator and poured a glass of warm water instead.

After receiving the glass of warm water, Adrian fell silent for a moment and then asked, "What about ice water?"

"We don't have any."

"Okay... how about something cold?"

Already annoyed by his questions, Eva simply replied, "If you want to drink it, drink it. It's up to you."

Adrian was taken aback by her stern response, and strangely enough, fell into silence. He then took the glass of warm water in his hands and drank it slowly.

He drank very slowly, as if each sip of water brought him immense pain, and his forehead was constantly sweating.

Eva had a feeling that he was about to burst into flames.

She pursed her lips and got up to fetch a damp towel from the bathroom. "Are you finished? Lie down here."

Perhaps feeling too uncomfortable, Adrian didn't say anything and lay down quickly. Eva placed the damp towel on him.

With his body so hot, she treated him as if he had a fever.

Afterwards, she went to get another damp towel and some alcohol, preparing to use it to lower his temperature.

"Should I wipe you or do you want to do it yourself?"

She stood in front of Adrian and lowered her voice.

However, Adrian, lying on the couch, didn't respond.

Could he be delirious from the heat?

Eva quickly reached out and gently pushed Adrian. He groaned but still didn't move.

It seemed like he was really in great discomfort.

Oh well, she would just think of it as being a good person until the end.

She would think of it as him fulfilling his promise to spend money on fixing the house for the children.

After coming to this realization, Eva swiftly stepped forward.

She helped him up, took off his coat, and put him back down when he was left with just a shirt.

After doing all of this, Eva was exhausted and panting for breath.

She didn't expect Adrian, who appeared thin, to be so heavy. Just supporting him to prevent him from falling took immense effort. Breathing heavily, Eva unbuttoned his shirt.
