Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 519 A Loss Greater Than the Gain

Eva really didn't have much of an appetite, but it wasn't because the food had gone cold; she simply hadn't been very hungry to begin with.

Moreover, earlier Lynn had added quite a bit to her plate, although about eighty percent of that ended up being eaten by Adrian.

But the quantity was simply too much, so even if Eva had only eaten twenty percent of it, she was now quite full.

She hesitated, wondering whether to make an excuse to leave early, fearing she might feel unwell and vomit in front of everyone later. Wouldn't it be better to leave for the sake of dieting than for any other reason? At that moment, as if Adrian had read her mind, he suddenly took her hand.

"Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, on our way here, Eva and I thought we saw a decent restaurant nearby. So, we agreed not to eat too much dinner; we're planning to try it out later."

Eva was startled, not expecting him to come up with this idea.

"The restaurant you're talking about? Is it the one run by Henry? His place does have good food; no wonder you were attracted."

"Really?" Adrian's lips curved into a smile, "Since Grandpa has praised it, we'll definitely have to give it a try."

Lynn, however, was somewhat unhappy, "Why bother eating out when we can eat at home? What's the point of going outside?"

Lynn mainly felt that, no matter how tasty the restaurant outside might be, where could it be as clean as home? Regardless if it was a restaurant, they were still strangers. You wouldn't know if they touched the ingredients with unwashed hands. The ingredients they used for all their dishes could even be spoiled!

It might be delicious when served, but if you couldn't see the process, how could you eat with peace of mind?

When Lynn was young, even when dating, she was reluctant to eat out. For a time, Warren was particularly worried. Other couples would go out for dates, walks, and food to bond, but Lynn wanted none of it. At first, he even thought she didn't like him, which was why she behaved that way.

It wasn't until later that he realized Lynn didn't dislike him at all; she was just a germaphobe who couldn't stand the thought of eating outside.

After learning this, Warren made a special effort to learn how to cook, occasionally bringing his own homemade desserts and drinks for their dates.

Or he would invite her to his home to taste the meals he cooked himself.

So, when Lynn voiced her concerns, Warren naturally knew what she was thinking. She was simply worried about the cleanliness of the restaurant, fearing her grandchildren and granddaughter-in-law might get an upset stomach. As her husband, Warren could only whisper in persuasion, "Alright, not everyone is as germophobic as you. If the young people want to go out and have fun, let them. After all, they haven't experienced it before." Lynn disagreed.

"How could they have not experienced it before? Aren't there more restaurants in the big city?"

Eva knew Adrian was trying to solve the problem for her, so she went along with it, but she didn't expect Lynn to have such a strong opinion about them going out to eat. She felt a bit awkward and didn't want the atmosphere to turn unpleasant, so she took the initiative to say, "Grandma is right; the food outside isn't clean, so let's not go then."

Having said that, Eva tugged on Adrian's sleeve under the table, signaling him to agree.

Adrian sat there, his lips pursed, not moving, as if considering what to do next.

The atmosphere seemed to stiffen a bit, starting with Lynn's opposition to them going out.

Lynn sensed something, perhaps her grandson didn't really want to take her out to eat, but just wanted to spend time alone with her.

And she might have accidentally disrupted their plans, so all she could do was awkwardly make up for her previous attitude.

"Actually, I don't want you to go for a reason. I happened to pass by that place before and saw the cooking process. The cook did not pay attention to food hygiene. It's not that Grandma doesn't want you to go, but... why don't you go for a walk instead? If you want to eat, let Grandpa cook for you, so you'll have something to eat when you come back from your walk."

Anyone could tell that Lynn was trying to make amends for her earlier attitude. Eva played along graciously, stepping down the path Lynn had provided.

"That's great, then we owe it to Grandma for telling us. Otherwise, if we got an upset stomach later, it wouldn't have been worth it."

After saying this, she shook Adrian's sleeve under the table again.

Only then did Adrian leisurely lift his gaze and nod.

"Yes, Eva is right, thank you, Grandma."

"Then we'll go out for a walk first; the air in the fields should be quite nice in the evening."

After they stood up, Ruby also wanted to follow them, but Lynn, who was beside her, held her back, "Why don't you two help your great grandma with some chores later?"

The two little ones blinked and reluctantly agreed.

It took a while for Eva and Adrian to come out of the yard, and just in that short time, it had grown dark outside. Walking along the road, they could see the lights on in the houses. Eva felt a bit awkward as she said to Adrian, "Why were you acting like that just now?"

"How was I acting?" Adrian asked calmly in return, seemingly unaware of any issue with his demeanor.

"You were rude. After all, Grandma is an elder; you shouldn't have remained silent."

Hearing this, Adrian chuckled lightly.

"Is remaining silent considered rude? Didn't you speak up for me?"

"What I said represents my own views, but you should also make your stance clear."

Upon hearing this, Adrian stopped walking and looked down at her seriously.

Eva became somewhat nervous under his gaze.

"What's wrong?"

"How come I've noticed that since your memory loss, you seem to have become quite fond of lecturing people?"

Eva couldn't help but blink at this.

"Me... fond of lecturing?"

She didn't feel that what she had just said was lecturing.

"When did I lecture you?" Eva frowned slightly, "I just felt that the way you handled the situation earlier wasn't good, so I gave you some advice. Why are you... reacting like this? Why are you saying that I'm lecturing you?" Seeing that she was getting angry, Adrian quickly caught her delicate wrist.

"What are you angry about?"

"Where am I angry?"

"Alright, whether it's advice or a lecture, I'm happy to receive it." Adrian interrupted her before she could continue and gently kissed her hand, bringing it to his lips.

Eva was about to get angry, but his kiss made her anger vanish in an instant.

"Alright, even if my attitude was bad, it was to keep you from staying there any longer. Are you sure you can still eat?"

Eva shook her head.

"See? My bad attitude is nothing compared to you feeling unwell later, right?"
