Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 43

"What, what?" Vivian could hardly believe what she had just heard. This was not at all what she wanted.

What she wanted was to show Adrian her injured finger after making him a loving lunch and have him be moved and concerned for her. Then they could spend some time alone in the office and deepen their relationship. Not like this... Vivian couldn't accept it and awkwardly laughed, "Adrian, where are you going? If it's not too long, I can wait for you in your office."

"Sorry Vivian, I'll be out for a while. You should leave." Adrian replied.

"I..." The assistant interrupted Vivian before she could finish speaking.

"Miss Morrison, please come with me."

Vivian bit her lip unwillingly and turned to look at Adrian with slightly reddened eyes. Would he really remain indifferent? However, when the assistant walked past her towards Adrian earlier on, he had already left quickly as if there were something urgent waiting for him outside.

Vivian stood still watching his figure disappear into the distance until he vanished from sight completely. The assistant's voice came from behind her, "Miss Morrison, are you coming?"

Vivian glanced at Adrian's assistant who looked expressionless with unfriendly eyes that made Vivian feel unwelcome around him. Her intuition told her that he didn't like her either; everyone in the company knew about Adrian's relationship with Eva but here was Vivian intentionally blocking people's way by carrying food boxes to meet them during meetings - even a kid would know of such intentions!

The assistant had been working alongside Eva for so long that he thought highly of Eva's abilities as well as how friendly she treated others which made him dislike seeing someone like Vivien doing things like this. However, he was just an assistant and only followed Adrian's orders without saying anything.

Vivian didn't want to leave yet; she had worked hard in the kitchen and her wound wasn't that serious. If she left now, would she have to make it worse later on just so Adrian could see? No way!

Thinking of this, Vivian smiled lightly at the assistant and said, "Where did Adrian go? Will he be back in the afternoon? If he comes back, can I wait for him in his office?"

The assistant replied with a straight face and loud voice: "I'm not sure about Mr. Blackwood's schedule. As for going into his office when he is not there, I'm sorry Miss Morrison but that won't be possible as outsiders are not allowed." Vivian's expression almost collapsed but managed to keep her lips stiffly pulled up as she retorted, "But I'm not an outsider!"

The assistant replied coldly, "I don't know about that."

This assistant is really annoying. Once she becomes the boss of the Blackwood family business, the first thing to do is to replace Adrian's current assistant. She has no eyesight.

Vivian cursed in her heart, but maintained a calm and beautiful appearance on the surface.

"Well then, please send me back. By the way, this lunch was made by me with great effort. Since Adrian didn't have a chance to eat it, I'll give it to you."

Although this assistant is very annoying, she still needs to stick with her for now since she is currently working with Adrian. It would be best if she could be persuaded over to Vivian's side.

Unexpectedly, the assistant took a big step back and shook her head.

"Miss Morrison deserves nothing for doing nothing."

This infuriated Vivian.

Finally, Vivian was sent back by the assistant.

Sanatorium

Adrian arrived at about the same time as before.

As he stepped into the sanatorium and saw Eva lying next to Granny Blackwood's legs in relaxation after his tense journey here earlier had subsided somewhat.

Granny Blackwood looked at him when she heard noise from behind her wheelchair-bound position and gestured for silence upon seeing him there too.

Adrian noticed that Eva was actually sleeping beside Granny Blackwood's leg when he turned around after looking at them both in mid-air contact briefly; so he walked up gently bent down and picked Eva up carefully placing her onto an adjacent small bed nearby without waking her up, despite how soundly asleep she seemed already holding onto a soft pillow while subconsciously rubbing against it, before drifting off again soon afterwards, once more wrapped securely in the covers in his arms as they lay together peacefully like two peas in a pod until morning light broke through windows outside their room signaling another day ahead of them all yet again...

When Granny Blackwood saw what happened behind herself, she gestured for Adrian to push her wheelchair out of the room, and he complied.

After they left the room, Granny Blackwood's voice returned to normal volume.

"This little girl said she wanted to hear my story, but fell asleep before I could finish. I don't know if it was because my story was too boring or if she hasn't been resting well lately."

"It should be that she hasn't been resting well." Adrian followed along with what Granny Blackwood said. "She has dark circles under her eyes."

When he pinched Eva's cheek just now, Adrian noticed that Eva's dark circles were much heavier than usual. Because her skin is as white as snow, when the dark circles are more pronounced than usual, they become particularly noticeable. "What happened?" Granny Blackwood asked: "Why didn't she rest well? Did you bully her?"

Adrian helplessly replied: "How dare I bully her? As long as she doesn't bully me then everything's fine. When have I ever won against her since we were kids?"

"Tsk tsk," Granny Blackwood clicked her tongue disapprovingly at him being a boy who can't take a bit of loss sometimes in life without feeling wronged by it all, somehow inside himself still, despite growing up so much over time, together with everyone else around them, both here and elsewhere, beyond their world too perhaps even...

"Anyway, you're not allowed to bully her. This girl really cares about me; she isn't my biological granddaughter, she's adopted."

Adrian did not refute this point.

What someone does is seen by everyone around them after all...

"Okay."

Eva didn't know how long she had slept for; She just felt very tired and comfortable sleeping soundly, until waking up again suddenly, only realizing where exactly she was while stretching lazily upon sitting upright in bed. She suddenly realized something and opened her eyes wide, only to unexpectedly meet a pair of smiling eyes staring back at her.

"Awake?"

Adrian?

Eva looked at Adrian sitting on the edge of her bed in surprise, then turned her head to look around. She found that they were indeed in Granny Blackwood's room.

She sat up: "Where is Granny Blackwood?"

As she asked this question, Eva reached out and covered her forehead with some regret: "How did I fall asleep?"

"Granny Blackwood went for a check-up." Adrian explained before looking at Eva's face again. "You forgot how you fell asleep? You even fell asleep while listening to a story; it could only be you."
