Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 463 Keep an Eye on Her
The person on the other end had a lot to say, babbling on, and Eva listened carefully to each word, feeling a warmth in her heart.
It was unexpected that her relationship with her stepmother would be this good.
Yet Michael Cooper seemed to imply that she did not get along with her stepmother?
But there wasn't any sign of that...
With this thought, Eva replied with feigned coldness, "My affairs are none of your concern."
As expected, there was a long pause on the other end after her harsh words before the woman replied awkwardly with a laugh, "Eva? Are you in a bad mood today? Or did something unpleasant happen at work?" It seems that the supposed poor relationship was false.
As she spoke, Eva suddenly noticed someone's shadow flicker outside. Her expression unchanged, she continued in a cold tone, "Yes, I'm in a bad mood, so let's not talk today. I'm going to sleep." Without waiting for a response, Eva hung up the phone.
After ending the call, Eva put away her mobile phone and gazed distantly with a calm expression.
It seemed that her fiancé's secrets were deeply hidden.
However, it probably wasn't the right time to startle him.
With that thought, Eva stored her phone and stood up to walk outside.
Eating so little, she hardly had any strength; as she attempted to walk out, Her faltering steps almost led her to stumble to the ground.
When she got outside, Krister came to meet her.
"Ms. Hansen, are you planning to go out?"
Eva's gaze fell on him as she sized him up.
Confronted with Eva's scrutiny, Krister hesitated for a moment before introducing himself.
"Ms. Hansen, my name is Krister. Mr. Cooper instructed me to follow and protect you. Wherever you wish to go, I will be there to ensure your safety." "Protect me?" Eva said with puzzlement, "I don't need protection."
"Ms. Hansen, given the incident that led to your memory loss, the risk factor of you going out has certainly increased, and I must accompany you," he insisted. But Eva pursed her lips in displeasure. She could easily read between the lines.
On the surface, it appeared as if he was there to protect her, but Eva felt he was there to keep an eye on her.
Just like earlier, he could have approached her openly, but instead, he lingered outside the door. Everything was unusual.
She gave him a sidelong glance and said nothing more.
Krister could feel that she wasn't particularly fond of him, and after the previous incident, he felt somewhat guilty.
Eva didn't care what he thought; she went back into her room to replace a coat to put on and then went downstairs.
Krister followed behind her.
Along the way, people greeted Eva with respect, addressing her as Ms. Hansen. It seemed that Eva had lived here for quite some time.
But Eva still noticed something off.
Their attitudes were respectful, indeed beyond reproach, but their eyes held inquiry and assessment-clear signs of unfamiliarity.
Body language and words can deceive, but the look in someone's eyes often tells the truth.
Their gazes felt too unfamiliar.
Even so, Eva did not let on that she knew, especially since at this point, with her memory gone, Michael Cooper likely had plans for her. As for what those plans were, she still wasn't sure. But one thing she could be certain of was that he wouldn't harm her.
At that moment, Michael Cooper stood before the floor-to-ceiling windows on the rooftop, watching Eva's figure moving erratically in the courtyard below, his lips pressed tightly together. Someone spoke from behind him, "Mr. Cooper, the police are looking for us."
His brow furrowed immediately upon hearing this.
"What's the matter?"
"It seems that before Ms. Hansen arrived, she encountered a college student at the airport and they exchanged a few words. The college student felt something was off with Ms. Hansen, so..." Michael Cooper needed no further explanation.
"The police also fear it might be a misunderstanding, so they want to see Eva, but given her current state..."
The man stopped there, and Michael Cooper understood what he meant. With Eva's amnesia, whatever she might say to the police...
"But if we don't let the police see her, I'm afraid that..."
"Let them."
"See her?" The man was surprised, evidently not expecting Michael Cooper to agree so readily, and paused momentarily: "But..." "There's no 'but.' She came here of her own volition; I didn't force her."
After saying this, Michael Cooper even managed a slight smile.
Krister: "..."
Internally, he thought: Sure, you didn't force her physically, but you did use the person she loves as leverage.
Yet such thoughts were not something he dared to express in front of Michael Cooper, and he quickly set out to follow his orders.
Eva walked around the garden without noticing anything special and, feeling her energy waning and her eyelids getting heavy, decided to go back inside.
Back in her room, she found Michael Cooper waiting for her.
Seeing her enter, Michael Cooper stood up to greet her.
"Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?"
Despite Eva having eaten recently, he was obviously concerned about her health.
Eva was indeed hungry; every part of her body was signaling that she needed food to recover her strength, but for some reason, she felt too agitated to eat. "Should I have someone bring up some food?"
After thinking it over, Eva nodded.
The staff from the kitchen brought a lot of food and Eva chose a bowl of mild and palatable soup.
While she drank, Michael Cooper watched intently, as if glued to her lips, making Eva extremely uncomfortable. Instinctively, she set down the bowl.
"Why are you staring at me?"
Hearing this, Michael Cooper snapped out of it, his lips curling slightly: "What's wrong, I can't watch my own fiancée?"
Eva: "..."
She had almost forgotten that he claimed her as his fiancée.
"You watching me eat is making it hard for me to eat."
Upon hearing this, Michael Cooper shifted his gaze away, and then something occurred to him, "Do you remember meeting anyone at the airport when you came over with David?" "Huh?"
This question confused Eva.
"What do you mean?"
Michael Cooper briefly explained the situation with the college student, and after listening, Eva got the gist of what he meant.
"The police want to talk to you because a college student reported you might be abducted," said Michael Cooper with a hint of helplessness in his voice.
"So, you need to clear things up with the police for me."
Eva hadn't expected the police would get involved.
She paused for a moment, looked at Michael Cooper, and said, "I can clarify things for you, but there's one question you need to answer for me."
