Leaving While Pregnant:He Goes Crazy! -
Chapter 544 To Meet or Not to Meet?
Clearly, their relationship now was not as simple as just them being together or apart. There were children involved, and their parents were concerned for them as well.
"What's the matter?"
Adrian's voice brought her back to reality.
Eva came to her senses and saw Adrian looking at her with concern, "Are you full?"
In truth, she hadn't eaten much, but it seemed her appetite wasn't great today, so after eating a little, she felt like she couldn't eat anymore, so Eva simply nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I guess I'm full."
Adrian saw that she hadn't eaten much and was still a bit worried.
"Eat a little more?"
Eva didn't feel nauseous, so she leaned in and took a few more bites.
"Okay."
After finishing those bites, Eva put down her utensils, no longer willing to continue, and Adrian, seeing that she had lost her appetite, also put down his utensils.
"What's wrong today? Are you in a bad mood? Or is there something that's making you unhappy?"
Eva shook her head.
"It's not that I'm in a bad mood, I just..."
She looked at the person in front of her, hesitating whether to voice her thoughts. But when the words reached her lips, she couldn't speak them out loud. After all, it was just a Facebook post.
She had lost her memory, and what she was seeing now was just the tip of the iceberg. If she were to bring it up, Adrian might explain it, but she still wouldn't know how to handle it.
Maybe it was better to act as if it never happened and try to regain her memory first.
"Just what?"
Adrian, not waiting for her answer, clearly felt a bit uneasy and took the initiative to ask.
Eva was taken aback. Adrian had clearly sensed her mood. If she denied it now, it might just lead to him overthinking, so she simply said, "Sorry, I don't want to talk about these things right now." This was an unexpected answer.
Adrian had thought that even if she didn't want to talk, she would say she was fine. He didn't expect her to directly tell him that she didn't want to talk.
With the conversation having reached this point, he felt like if he pressed further, it would only pressure her.
Thinking this, Adrian could only purse his lips and say softly, "Okay, if you don't want to talk about it now, then we won't. But if you really can't figure it out, you must tell me. If it's something bad, don't keep it to yourself. Telling me is definitely better than brooding over it alone."
His respect and understanding made Eva feel at ease, and she was no longer tense. Eva agreed.
"Okay."
The Next Day
The puddles from yesterday's rain had receded, and the sun peeked out from the clouds, warming the world as if the torrential downpour had never happened.
Traffic on the roads was flowing smoothly again.
Around ten o'clock, Eva and Adrian were ready to leave. The luggage was packed in the trunk. Eva had made it clear to Adrian the night before that today would be the last attempt.
If Michael still didn't want to meet her, then she would have to go back.
This was a decision Eva had made herself; Adrian didn't interfere. He simply agreed after listening to her.
David wasn't surprised that Eva didn't come during yesterday's heavy rain. After all, he would have been worried if she had.
Besides his concern, someone else seemed to be even more worried. Since waking up to the heavy rain, which showed no sign of stopping, he had been visibly restless in the house. Eventually, David suggested, "Ms. Hansen's phone is still here. Why don't I have someone send it over?"
To his surprise, Michael scoffed at the suggestion.
"Send it over? How do you know she's still around? If you really wanted to return the phone to her, why didn't you do it yesterday?"
David ignored the latter half of his remark and simply said, "She settled into a nearby hotel. We'll know if she's there when we send it."
After that, Michael didn't say anything more.
Later, the person who went to send the phone had been gone for a long time, and just when Michael thought the phone couldn't be delivered, David received a message. "The phone was delivered, but the rain is too heavy. I'm taking a break there for now."
Michael pursed his lips and didn't respond.
"The rain is too heavy; Ms. Hansen can't leave yet."
Hearing this, Michael's lips curled into a mocking smile, "What does that have to do with me? Why do you have to tell me these trivial matters?"
After speaking, he went straight into his room.
David stood there, clearly sensing that Michael's mood had improved slightly.
He sighed, feeling increasingly sad inside.
Just like today, there was no rain. If they had wanted to come over, they should have been here much earlier, but by ten o'clock, there was still no sign of them. David could sense his restlessness.
However, Michael was patient. Even though he was anxious, he didn't say a word.
The phone had already been sent out, and David had nothing else to deliver today, so he could only wait with him.
After a while, Michael stood up, preparing to return to his room when he heard David address him, "Mr. Cooper." Hearing this, Michael paused in his steps and turned around with displeasure in his gaze.
The look in his eyes was cold and filled with resentment.
"What is it?"
"Are you waiting for Ms. Hansen?"
"No." Michael coldly replied.
"Who told you I was waiting for her?"
David did not argue but simply continued to ask, "If Ms. Hansen arrives later, will you see her or not?"
Michael frowned.
"Why do you ask?"
"It will determine whether I should bring her in to see you later."
After a pause, Michael finally said, "She won't come."
"But what if she does?"
Michael only responded with silence.
"Will you see her, Mr. Cooper?"
Silence yet again.
At this moment, the sound of a car horn came from outside the window.
Michael's expression changed slightly after hearing it. His lips were pressed into a straight line.
David's gaze was fixed on his face, not missing any subtle expression.
A moment later, he curved his lips into a smile.
"It seems Ms. Hansen has arrived, Mr. Cooper. Will you see her or not? I need a definitive answer."
Only a day had passed, but Eva's reappearance here felt like a long time had gone by.
The Coopers' servant saw her and went upstairs to replace David, familiar with the routine. They were supposed to wait next door, but today Eva politely declined and expressed that she would wait outside for his response. When David came down, he saw Eva standing not far from the front door.
Seeing her expression and eyes, David anticipated something and sighed inwardly as he approached.
"Ms. Hansen."
"David."
Eva gave him a slight smile. "We meet again. You should know why I'm here."
David nodded.
"Yes, but I'm sorry, Ms. Hansen. Mr. Cooper still does not wish to see you."
It was an expected answer, and Eva was not surprised or disappointed. Facing David's gaze, she simply nodded quietly. "Alright, I understand."
