Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 536 She Might not Remember You Right Now
Could it be that something had happened between them in the past?
Of course, Eva didn't ask this directly because she felt that even if she did, Adrian probably wouldn't tell her.
Better to wait and talk about it later.
They found a hotel nearby that wasn't too far away and settled in. Adrian, fearing Eva might be bored, initially wanted to take her to a nearby mall for a stroll.
However, Eva didn't agree and outright refused him on the spot.
"Your injury has just started to heal, and you're already being reckless? Why can't you ever learn?" Eva's tone was slightly sharp. "I've told you that you need to rest. You do know what rest means, right?"
Seeing her puff up with indignation as she spoke, her cheeks slightly bulging, Adrian had intended to listen seriously, but replaceing her appearance cute, his playful side took over, and he couldn't resist reaching out to pinch her puffed cheeks.
""
Eva's speech halted midway as her cheeks were suddenly pinched, and she blinked in confusion.
What did he mean by this?
"What are you doing?"
Instinctively, she placed her hands on Adrian's arm, pushing while speaking, "Let go quickly. Don't play too much, I'm trying to talk to you seriously."
Adrian pinched her cheeks a couple of times, raised an eyebrow, and said, "I'm listening very seriously to you."
Eva was at a loss.
Was this how someone seriously listened to others?
Did anyone seriously listen while pinching another's cheeks?
"It's just that you looked too serious, so I thought I'd help you relax a bit."
With that, Adrian pinched her cheeks again before finally letting go.
"Alright, since you want me to rest, we won't go out after this. We'll stay in the hotel to rest and recuperate."
Finding it boring to stay in the hotel room, Eva went to the balcony to enjoy the view.
The hotel balcony where they stayed was large and had an outdoor swimming pool below. The pool was extensive, and the water shimmered in the sunlight. Since it was winter, no one was swimming, so the vast pool became a place to enjoy the view.
Eva leaned against the railing, quietly watching the pool water below, feeling her heart gradually calm down.
A phone was ringing behind her, and the sound was close.
Eva then realized that Adrian had come out from inside at some point, and he was now leaning against the balcony door, watching her.
His phone in his pocket was ringing, and he reached down to take it out.
When he saw the caller ID, Adrian paused for a moment, then without saying anything, and without moving away, he answered the call in front of Eva. "Hello."
His voice was indifferent and subdued, betraying no emotion.
Eva glanced only once before turning her gaze back to the pool water below.
Adrian watched her, listening to the woman's questioning voice coming from the phone.
"Adrian? Are you with Eva? Why can't I get through to her cell phone number? Aren't you supposed to be protecting her? I'm telling you, Adrian, if anything happens to her again, I'll..." Before Emily could finish her sentence, Adrian interjected, "She's right beside me. Do you want to talk to her?"
The voice on the other end paused abruptly, seemingly caught off guard by his response.
"She's with you? Then give her the phone right away."
"I will, but first I need to tell you something."
"What is it?" Emily asked, clearly confused.
Adrian glanced at Eva and said solemnly, "She might not remember you right now."
Emily went mute with shock.
There was a dead silence on the phone for a moment before Emily explosively asked, "What do you mean? What do you mean she doesn't remember me? Don't tell me she has amnesia?" "Yes."
Since Emily had returned home, she had not been in contact with Eva and was unaware of Eva's situation, assuming she was safe. Moreover, with her own work keeping her so busy, she had been dizzy with activity. Only recently, when she had some downtime, did she try to call Eva.
But she didn't expect to replace Eva's phone unreachable.
Emily had Adrian's contact information from her time abroad. Despite her fear of him, the strength of friendship gave her the courage to make the call.
And now, to her shock, she learned that Eva had lost her memory.
What on earth had happened during the time she was busy?
Why had things suddenly come to this?
Emily wanted to question him, but then she thought better of it and said, "Never mind, just give her the phone. I want to talk to her."
Because he wasn't far away, Eva could hear his voice. At first, she thought it was a call related to his work and didn't listen carefully. But later, she caught snippets about herself.
After Adrian handed the phone to her, saying, "Your friend," he paused, then added, "You might remember something when you talk to her. Why not try?"
Eva didn't say a word and just took the phone.
"Hello?"
"Eva!!"
Emily was thrilled to hear Eva's voice. "Finally, I hear your voice. How are you? Are you okay?"
Although Eva didn't remember the people and events from before, Emily's voice triggered a strange sense of familiarity and warmth.
"I..."
Eva's voice began to choke up.
Emily was instantly filled with heartache.
"Do you not remember who I am? But you feel a sense of familiarity with me, right?"
Eva subconsciously nodded, then realizing that Emily couldn't see her, she had to verbalize her response.
"Yes."
"Okay, so you really don't remember me. Well, I'll tell you now, my name is Emily, and I'm your best friend..."
Emily began to explain at length, starting with introducing herself, then recounting how the two of them met and became best friends, and how Eva had helped her in the past. Emily talked a lot, speaking nonstop on the phone. Eva did not have a chance to interject, only listening to her go on.
Finally, after a long explanation, Emily asked, "Do you have any recollection now?"
