Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 385 A Path Back

The whole process lasted nearly six minutes, and Eva finally set up the account.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Eva."

A familiar male voice resounded.

After recognizing who the voice belonged to, Emily almost cried out in surprise, but Nathan immediately covered her mouth with his large hand.

Emily widened her eyes and tried to push him away, but Nathan held her shoulder and then whispered into her ear, "Don't speak."

Emily furrowed her brows but didn't struggle anymore.

Then Eva's voice came from the other end.

"Didn't I say I wanted some time alone? You interfere when I replace someone to eat with, and now you want to interfere when I'm taking a shower?"

As she spoke, Eva placed her phone on a nearby shelf, loosened her clothes, and stood under the showerhead.

There was a moment of silence outside, followed by the response, "Alright, then you continue your shower. I'll wait outside for you."

Eva glanced at the shelf and said, "I forgot to bring my clothes. Go to my luggage and replace my clothes for me."

"Okay, I'll get them."

Afterward, Eva turned off the showerhead and listened to his footsteps growing distant. She then turned the showerhead back on and retrieved her phone, switching off the speaker. "Now I'll send the location."

"Send it over; no need to say more."

"I need to switch back my SIM card. As for this SIM card, I probably won't use it again." Eva said.

"Mhmm." Nathan continued holding his hand over Emily's mouth and calmly said, "We will replace a way to save you. Protect yourself and try not to antagonize him."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

After much hesitation, Eva finally said, "Emily, please relay this to Adrian for me."

Upon hearing Emily's name, Nathan let go of the hand covering her mouth. Emily immediately asked, "Why don't you tell him yourself?"

"I tried, but maybe because of the time difference, he didn't pick up the call."

Emily replied, "Alright, but how could the person who kidnapped you be...?"

While Eva calculated the time, knowing that Michael would be returning soon and she still needed to finish sorting out the situation, she interrupted Emily, saying, "Let's stop here. He'll be coming back soon." Emily hesitated, "Okay then, take good care of yourself and don't provoke him. We will contact the police to replace you."

The police...

Eva bit her lip, thinking about his kindness towards her over the past five years. She softened her tone and said, "Don't involve the police. Just pass the message to Adrian. He should figure out a way." Even if he didn't save her, he would want to save his children.

"Don't involve the police? How can we replace you then?"

Emily wanted to continue, but Nathan urged her on the phone, "Time is running out. You go and finish sorting things out and clean up, we will pass on your message."

After speaking, Nathan hung up the call immediately.

Seeing this, Emily couldn't help but grumble, "What's with that, Stingy Guy? I still have things to say." Nathan glanced at her.

"You don't know the situation on her end. What else do you want to say? We'll wait until we replace her." Upon hearing his words, Emily nodded, "Right, you're right. We need to replace her first."

After saying that, Emily took out her phone to book a ticket for a flight.

Seeing this, Nathan frowned involuntarily, "What are you doing?"

"I'm booking a flight. She sent me her location."

"You're going to go replace her yourself?"

"Of course, in her current situation, I have to go replace her." Emily realized something and looked up, meeting Nathan's gaze. "You're not going to stop me, are you? Do you think I'll delay my work? Well, let me make it clear, when I go on blind dates, you always make me work overtime, which is fine because blind dates are not a big deal. But now, this involves my best friend. If you still don't agree to me taking leave, then I'll just quit. Wait for it, once I finish buying the ticket, I'll write my resignation letter."

Seeing that she was really about to purchase the ticket, Nathan speechlessly held her hand and said, "Can't you calm down and use your brain instead of being impulsive?"

Emily was a bit annoyed by his words.

"You're calling me impulsive, how am I supposed to calm down in this situation then?"

Nathan didn't argue with her and went straight to handle the matter.

"Don't buy tickets, call the police."

Call the police?

"No! Don't call the police!" Emily held down his hand reaching for the phone.

Nathan eyed her.

"Didn't you hear what Eva said? She doesn't want us to call the police."

"But she's been kidnapped, Emily, that's illegal."

"I know." Emily bit her lip. "Who doesn't know it's illegal? But for the past five years, it's been Michael who has been helping her, taking care of her. Now that Michael has done this, there must be some misunderstanding that hasn't been resolved. She doesn't want me to call the police, she must have her reasons."

Nathan silently watched her.

Emily continued, "Sometimes people have to show a little compassion, give others a chance to turn things around, don't they?"

After a long moment of eye contact, Nathan gave in.

"Indeed, you're right. Sometimes compassion is necessary."

He paused for a moment and then added, "I'll go with you."

Emily thought she must have misheard, and she looked at him in disbelief.

"You... what did you say? You'll come with me?"

"It's about showing compassion, as you've mentioned. And since I now know about this matter, and you have been a valuable employee of my company for so many years, considering your dedication to the company, I'll lend a hand this time." At first, Emily couldn't believe it, but then she thought having Nathan with her would be better. To reach his current position, there weren't many people who could rival his intelligence. With his help, things will surely go smoother. "Alright, then I'll pay for our plane tickets."

"Hold on a second."

"What now?"

Nathan replied, "Didn't your friend ask you to notify someone?"

Emily suddenly remembered, "Oh right, she told me to inform Adrian, but I don't have his contact information."

Upon realizing this, Emily immediately turned to Nathan. "Mr. Powell, do you have a way?"

Nathan glanced at her but didn't say anything.

Emily quickly pressed her hands together and pleaded, "Please, help me."

Ten minutes later, with Nathan's assistance, Emily successfully obtained Adrian's contact information and also booked the plane tickets.

But for some reason, even though she had the contact information, whenever Emily dialed Adrian's phone number, it always went unanswered.

"What's going on? Why isn't he answering his phone?"

Nathan calmly reasoned, "He might be resting, who knows?"

Upon hearing this possibility, Emily grew frustrated immediately, "It's already so late, and he still has time to rest? Doesn't he know that Eva has been kidnapped? Doesn't he have any sense of urgency? How can someone be like this?" Seeing her agitated and unable to calm down, Nathan grabbed her hand.

"Take a deep breath, pack your things, we'll go to the airport now."

In his presence, Emily felt a sense of calm and she listened to him.

Under his guidance, Emily calmed down and put her phone away. "Okay, then I'll try call him later."
