Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 511 Mommy, Hug, Give Me A Hug
Regaining her memories?
This sudden question caught Eva off guard, and she was momentarily at a loss for words. She plunged herself into deep thought.
She seemed to want her memories back; after all, it was something she had lost, and who wouldn't want to retrieve something they'd lost?
But after everything that had happened, she felt that whether or not she regained her memories wasn't all that important because even if she didn't remember, those who cared about her still did. Just like Adrian Blackwood, who had rushed to save her the moment he woke up, despite his own severe injuries.
To her, memories were important, but at the same time, they weren't.
With this in mind, Eva said, "Whether I regain them or not, let's just leave it to fate. If I try too hard, it might just backfire, right?"
Adrian Blackwood was slightly taken aback when he heard this. He was probably not expecting such a response from her. He had thought she would either express a strong desire to remember or a clear preference to forget.
After a long moment of contemplation, Adrian Blackwood's lips curled into a smile. "My Eve is just my Eve, and that's a good way to think about it. You won't wear yourself out."
His words made Eva laugh.
"Why would I wear myself out? It's exhausting."
She had been rescued, had people who cared about her by her side, and was about to meet her two adorable children. What was there to stress over?
Besides, it wasn't as if she could regain her memories just by wishing it. Worrying wouldn't help.
With that in mind, she might as well be content with the present. The memories would come back on their own one day, wouldn't they?
Adrian Blackwood gently touched the back of her head, a smile lingering on his lips.
"That's a great attitude to have."
Soon, they arrived at the front gate.
The gate was closed, and Adrian Blackwood moved to press the doorbell from memory, but his hand was unexpectedly caught by the person beside him. "Wait... wait a moment."
Adrian Blackwood turned to look at Eva.
"What's wrong?"
As he spoke, he suddenly realized that Eva's hand was trembling as she held his. Adrian Blackwood paused, "Are you scared?"
Eva fell silent.
She pursed her lips, then said softly, "It's not that I'm scared, I'm just a bit nervous."
"Nervous?"
Adrian Blackwood lowered his gaze to see her gripping his hand tightly as if she weren't there to meet her own daughter and son, but an enemy instead. However, he understood her feelings.
When he first learned that the two children were his, and he wanted to interact with them, he was much more nervous than she was.
"Don't be nervous, they're your children. What's there to be nervous about?" Adrian Blackwood couldn't help but tease her while taking the opportunity to grasp her wrist tightly.
Eva was still very nervous, "Yeah, what am I nervous about? They are my children, what do I have to be nervous about?"
She deliberately repeated these words several times, as if trying to brainwash herself. However, it was useless; she was still nervous.
Adrian Blackwood then suggested, "How about I give you a little more time to calm down? I won't ring the doorbell just yet."
Hearing that she could have more time, Eva immediately nodded.
"Good... good idea."
For some reason, seeing her so nervous brought a particular joy to Adrian Blackwood's heart. He thought back to how he, himself, had been awkward in front of their children, and it felt all too familiar. Eva took several deep breaths, and finally, she felt a bit more relaxed. Once she was mentally prepared, she stepped behind Adrian Blackwood. "I'm ready. You can ring the doorbell."
Continuing to be nervous was not going to help; it would only make her more anxious.
"Really? Shall I ring it now?" Adrian asked.
"Yes, go ahead... please do," she said, her voice trailing off as she shrank back behind him, almost completely hiding herself.
This action deepened the smile in Adrian Blackwood's eyes.
"All set mentally, yet still hiding behind me?" He teased.
Hearing the jest in his voice, Eva felt a bit annoyed with him.
"Are you deliberately laughing at me right now, of all times?" She asked.
The smile in Adrian's eyes grew wider, but he denied it with his words, "No, I'm not."
"I heard it," she insisted.
"What did you hear?"
"I heard you making fun of me."
"Did I? Did I laugh just now?"
"You laughed inside."
"You can hear me laughing inside?"
"Adrian!"
"Yes, my lady? What can I do for you?" He responded, feigning ignorance.
Unable to help herself, Eva pinched his waist, intending to chastise him, but the moment she did, Adrian's entire body stiffened.
Eva didn't realize the effect of her action and quickly withdrew her hand.
Only Adrian remained, his eyes slightly darkened, standing there feeling the aftermath. He pursed his thin lips, realizing for the first time that he had metaphorically shot himself in the foot. And perhaps because they had been apart for so long, he found himself so moved and affected by even a small gesture from her.
Fortunately, it was winter, and he was wearing thick clothes.
Adrian cleared his throat to cover his embarrassment and was about to speak when they heard two excited shouts from behind them! "Mommy!!"
"Mommy!"
The voices were beaming with excitement and were unmistakably those of children. Adrian immediately recognized them as Ruby and Dylan's voices.
But he quickly turned to see Eva's reaction.
As expected, upon hearing those two calls of 'mommy,' Eva froze in place, unable to move.
Adrian looked up and saw the two children racing toward Eva like rockets. They didn't seem to be moving that fast, but they swiftly reached Eva's feet, each hugging one of her legs. "Mommy!"
The two of them chirped like songbirds, incessantly calling out 'mommy' around her.
Adrian noticed that Eva had become even more rigid than before.
It took her a moment to regain her composure, then she lowered her gaze to the two little ones at her feet.
The good-looking brows and eyes of the two children slowly came into view, and Eva stood there, staring at them in a daze.
They were... exactly like the ones she had dreamed of.
Could her dreams really be so prophetic? Or perhaps, these were memories that existed in her mind, but she just couldn't recall them, which was why she dreamed of these two little faces. "Mommy, you're finally back, I missed you so much!"
The little girl tugged at the hem of her dress, constantly reaching up to be held, while the boy next to her was much more reserved, looking at her with joy but without tugging at her clothes. Seeing that she hadn't squatted down to hold her, Ruby became anxious, not just reaching out her hands but directly asking, "Mommy, hug, give me a hug!"
Under her urging, Eva slowly squatted down and opened her arms.
No sooner had she opened her arms than the two little ones plunged into her embrace, almost knocking Eva backward, but fortunately, Adrian Blackwood had anticipated this and had already squatted down to support her.
