Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 388 Give Ruby back to me

After got the kids settled to the room, Eva locked the door.

She knew she wouldn't be able to stay there for much longer.

Based on David's actions just now, it seemed that the issue with the SIM card had been discovered, though none of them had brought it up explicitly. After the commotion earlier, the two little ones had also woken up, rubbing their eyes as they looked at her.

"Mama, what were you and David talking about just now?"

Eva gently stroked their heads. "Awake? Are you hungry? When Michael comes, we can ask him to help us replace your favorite ice cream, okay?"

The two children hadn't thought about ice cream before, but when Eva mentioned it, their cravings for it suddenly arose.

"Okay."

Soon, there was a knock at the door.

"Eva," Michael's voice echoed from outside the door, followed by him turning the doorknob and walking in.

"Uncle Michael!"

Due to the lingering thoughts of ice cream, Ruby was especially delighted. She immediately opened her arms to ask for a hug when she saw Michael. Michael approached and embraced her.

"Uncle Michael, I want to have ice cream." Ruby began to acted playfully and made her request.

"Ice cream? We can get some."

Ruby nodded gently. "Yeah, I'm really hungry."

"Then let's go downstairs and replace a different place to stay. I'll buy you something on the way, okay?"

Eva was surprised that Michael would pull this kind of move.

At this moment, perhaps due to their close relationship, Dylan, who was sitting beside them, stood up and tugged at Michael's pants.

"Uncle Michael, can we buy it and eat it at home?"

Hearing this, Eva was taken aback. She didn't reveal anything to Dylan. So was this just a coincidence?

Michael unconsciously glanced at Eva.

After a moment, he nodded and said, "Sure. You stay here with your mommy, and I'll take Ruby out to buy it. Ruby wanted to eat it first, right?"

Ruby nodded immediately. "Okay, I'll go with you."

Eva glanced at Michael. It was a move he knew how to use. He always used such subtle methods that no one noticed.

If anyone came looking for her during this time, would he use Ruby to hold her back?

Thinking this, Eva frowned and said, "Forget it, it's too cold. Let's not have any ice cream."

Michael paused. "Okay, since we're not having it, let's go then. Let's go to the next place."

Michael wanted to take Ruby away, but Eva said, "We won't go with you."

Since she couldn't delay any longer, there was no need for her to pretend.

She didn't want to expose their relationship in front of the two children. After all, for them, Michael was a reliable presence.

But now she realized that if Michael took her away today and they moved to a new place, they wouldn't be able to hide it at all. Sooner or later, the two children would replace out.

Sure enough, after she spoke, both the kids looked at her.

"Mama?"

Eva looked at Michael, her expression darkening, and said, "Give up now. There's still a way back. I will keep my promise if you send us back to our home country now, I can pretend that nothing ever happened." Michael stood there silently. His thin lips tightened slightly, and his gaze at Eva was filled with helplessness. "What if I don't send you back?"

Eva's lips curled in sarcasm. "If you don't send us back, then we're no longer friends, and you will disappoint these two children as well."

Dylan, being more mature, simply listened to Eva's words without asking anything.

But Ruby, being playful and curious, was restless. Her little head was filled with confusion.

"Uncle Michael, did you have a fight with mommy? Please don't fight, I'm scared."

The little girl's soft voice was like a fluffy marshmallow, melting into Michael's heart. Deep inside, Michael's heart also softened.

"Put Ruby down and let her come to me."

Just as Michael was about to comfort the little girl, Eva made a request.

At this moment, Michael's hand was still on the little girl's back as he spoke softly, "Eva, do we really have to be so tense?"

Eva retorted, "Isn't this what you wanted?"

After saying that, she walked up, trying to snatch Ruby from Michael, but he took a step back. "I'm sorry, but you seem a bit emotionally unstable right now. I can't give Ruby to you."

Unstable? Wasn't he the one with unstable emotions?

Eva emphasized it seriously. "Ruby is my child. Do you understand?"

"Mummy..."

Although Ruby didn't know what had happened between the two adults, she seemed to sense the severity of the situation. Naturally, she was anxious to return to Eva's side and struggled to get out of Michael's arms.

"Ruby, don't move," Michael said as he held her in his arms and stepped back. "Didn't you say you wanted to have ice cream? I'll take you to buy some. We'll get some for mommy and your brother too, so mommy won't be angry anymore, okay?"

Seeing him retreat, Eva hurriedly caught up.

"Michael, give Ruby back to me!"

Michael walked out of the hotel holding Ruby, while Eva tried to catch up. However, David ran up and stopped her, and the two men guarding the door quickly caught up as well.

"You guys, get out of the way!"

Because it involved her daughter, Eva was no longer gentle at this moment. She even pushed David hard.

However, David and the other two men firmly blocked her way. Her strength couldn't match the three men, so she could only watch helplessly as Michael carried Ruby, who was crying for mommy, away.

When everything quieted down, Eva was left exhausted, panting heavily. She even raised her hand and slapped David.

David remained calm, saying, "Ms. Hansen, all I can assure you is that Mr. Cooper won't harm Ruby. Please don't worry."

Since both sides had already fallen out, Eva no longer treated David with kindness. "Let me through."

"I'm sorry, Ms. Hansen. I can't do that. You have only one option if you want to get through this door: get ready to head to our next destination."
