Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 502 Leading You Away from Here

Upon hearing Eva's concern, David came over to try several times, but the elevator didn't budge. Since she was sitting lower and blocked from view, Eva couldn't see their attempts, but after waiting for a while with no movement from the elevator, she had a good guess of what was happening, "Is the elevator broken? How about taking the stairs? Or, are there other elevators nearby?"

The hotel seemed upscale and should have several elevators.

Jane instinctively replied, "We can't, Ms. Hansen. We can't open this elevator door right now; we are temporarily stuck."

After saying this, Jane realized that her words might frighten Eva, so she quickly turned around to reassure her, "But don't worry, Ms. Hansen, we've only gone up two floors, and modern elevators have anti-fall controls. Nothing will happen." Eva could tell that Jane was trying not to scare her, but she wasn't worried. Living in a big city with high-rise buildings everywhere meant that using elevators was part of daily life, and encountering malfunctions was common. She was well aware that elevator safety measures had greatly improved and felt confident about her safety.

"I'm fine, don't worry," she reassured Jane.

"There is an emergency button here that connects us to hotel maintenance," the man who had entered the elevator last then spoke up, pressing the button to make the call to maintenance.

David watched him make the call, reporting the elevator malfunction, and pursed his lips while glancing at the man a few more times than necessary.

"The staff said they'll be here soon to fix it and told us to stay calm."

About two minutes later, they heard the maintenance crew working on the elevator.

"The elevator is temporarily stuck. Once we get the doors open, you folks should come out first," someone from the outside communicated.

Once the repair crew had opened a gap wide enough for one person to pass through, they spoke again, "Okay, now you can come out."

David looked at the man who had made the call. Hearing that they could exit, the man instinctively started moving forward but after a couple of steps, as if remembering something, he turned to look toward Eva. "This lady's mobility seems to be hindered." He observed. "Let's let her go first."

Despite his seemingly non-suspicious behavior, David still didn't feel comfortable letting Eva go first, yet he couldn't leave before her either. He instructed Jane, "You go out first and then wait for Ms. Hansen outside." Jane initially wanted to let Eva go ahead but agreed with David's plan upon hearing his instructions and nodded.

Thus, under the arrangement of the two men and the people above, Jane exited first.

Once outside and ensuring there were no dangers, Jane called down, "David, you can bring Ms. Hansen up now." "Alright."

David helped Eva stand, "Ms. Hansen, I'll support you in a moment. Just step on my shoulders; don't worry." "Thank you."

Now truly lacking strength, Eva had to rely on others for assistance.

With the help of David and the other man, she was lifted toward the gap. As she neared the top, a pair of hands reached down for her a pair of distinct-jointed, slender-fingered hands adorned with a silver ring. Odd, she wondered if hotel staff had always been so aesthetically pleasing.

Though her memory was hazy, she didn't recall ever seeing such attractive hands during previous elevator malfunctions.

Feeling that something was amiss and that she shouldn't be reaching out, her hand, as if bewitched, found itself in the grasp of the stranger's.

And the second her skin touched those hands, they tightened around her, sending a jolt of warmth unexpectedly surging into Eva's heart. Without any time to think of anything else, the person's strong grip pulled her up.

As Eva allowed this force to guide her up, she also felt an overwhelming sense of familiarity.

After being pulled up, her instinct was to look at that person, but her slender waist was fully grasped, and then she was carried off at the hip.

Because that person moved somewhat quickly, Eva instinctively reached up to cling on. It wasn't until she was set down firmly that she realized her hand was actually hanging around the other person's neck, with her face pressed into their chest.

An unfamiliar yet strangely familiar scent invaded Eva's nostrils.

She subconsciously wanted to look up, but the person simply swept her into their arms.

"Let's go!"

The cold and merciless tone entered Eva's ears, still carrying that sense of familiarity.

Before Eva could react, she was carried off and whisked away by the stranger, with her hand still hanging on their neck, not yet taken down.

The familiar yet strange sensation that occurred more than once led Eva to guess something, and she slowly lifted her head.

The first thing that caught her eye was a determined chin with stubble that looked hastily shaved, followed by a straight nose, cold and sharp brows and eyes, and neatly cut short hair.

When Eva finally saw the face of the other person, her heart began to pound wildly.

She had previously searched for photos on her phone and only found one from a distance, which wasn't even confirmed to be him, but at that time, she had a premonition that this person must have a profound connection with her. Although the photo was so distant that the facial features were unclear, the moment she saw this person's face clearly, she immediately confirmed it was the same person.

It was also... the very person she was looking for.

Adrian Blackwood...

After realizing who the person before her was, Eva's breaths became erratic.

Why was he here? Wasn't he unconscious? Had he woken up?

And how could he appear here so coincidentally? Could it be that the car that had been following her all night was his?

Eva's mind was on the brink of chaos. As the person carried her away with long strides, she couldn't help but blurt out, "Wait, wait a minute."

Hearing her voice, Adrian Blackwood finally looked down.

The instant their eyes met; Eva felt an indescribable feeling well up in her heart. Although the face before her remained handsome, it looked worn and haggard. "Don't talk just yet, I'm going to get you out of here first."
