Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！
Chapter 555 It Won't Stop Me from Kissing You

His breath was hot and close. Before she could react, her lips were enveloped in a kiss.

"Umm."

This unexpected kiss stunned Eva, who hadn't anticipated an ambush in the office.

His touch on her lips was gentle and warm, saturated with Adrian's unique scent, which seemed to effortlessly invade her every breath.

Eva's initial confusion turned into resistance as her hands pushed against his chest, trying to fend him off.

"Umm, no... this is an office..."

If someone walked in and saw them, the embarrassment would have her wishing she could disappear into the ground.

So, while protesting, she tilted her head back, attempting to dodge his advances.

After evading him a couple of times, the man in front of her stopped with dissatisfaction, then gripped the nape of her neck. His deep, husky voice carried a heavy note of frustration. "Why are you refusing me?"

Eva gave him a glance and was intimidated by his penetrating dark gaze.

Ever since she had regained her memory, she hadn't seen such an intense look in Adrian's eyes-dark as if they were a vortex and dangerously magnetic, as if she might get sucked in at any moment. Remembering their previous close encounter, and now facing those piercing dark eyes, Eva's pale cheeks couldn't help but flush a deep crimson.

She even instinctively turned her face away, unable to meet his gaze, and stuttered, "But... what if someone walks in..."

His voice was raspy, "No one will."

Eva remained silent.

"How do you know no one will come?"

"Who else besides Tim would enter your office without permission? And even if it were Tim, he'd knock first, right?" "Is that so?" Eva didn't remember, so she wasn't sure.

"Yes."

Adrian, however, responded with certainty, as if he were the true owner of the office, not just a visitor.

After replying, the hand on the nape of Eva's neck applied a slight pressure as he leaned in for another kiss.

As he drew closer, Eva instinctively dodged to the side again.

Her evasion meant that he missed his target.

The fact that he landed the first kiss surprised him, mostly because she hadn't reacted in time. He finally tasted the sweetness he had longed for-perhaps even sweeter than he had imagined. Initially, intending only a brief taste, he found the flavor too delightful to let go.

But before he could indulge in another kiss, she ducked away.

After explaining himself and attempting another kiss with no success, Adrian was left intensely desiring more; his gaze was now locked on her. His hand, resting at the nape of her neck, tightened unconsciously-assertive, yes, but not to the point of causing her pain.

"What are you dodging now?"

Eva's ears flushed red, a testament to the huskiness now evident in Adrian's voice.

"I just..."

Noticing the almost blood-like redness at the tips of her ears, Adrian's irritation seemed to dissolve a bit. A teasing smile played upon his lips as he pinched her ear gently.

"Shy, are you? Too embarrassed, or afraid we might be interrupted?"

Indeed, Eva felt embarrassed, but her greater concern was the possibility of an unwelcome guest. If they were caught, what would that do to her authority as the boss of the company? After a long pause, Eva said, "Maybe... we shouldn't kiss here; let's wait until..."

"No."

Before she could finish her thought, thinking they could resume back at home, Adrian cut her off.

"I don't want to wait."

As he spoke, Eva felt his grip on her neck release, and then she watched as he turned to walk towards the exit.

For a moment, Eva thought Adrian was angry with her refusal. Her skin still tingled from where he had touched her. It felt empty now...

Where was he going?

Lost in her thoughts, she didn't realize Adrian had moved to lock the office door until he was done.

Eva, who had first thought he was leaving out of anger, stood there speechless as she watched him lock the door and then turn back towards her with an intense, almost ferocious gaze. No, it was more than ferocity; it was a deep intensity that felt predatory.

Eva felt like prey under the watchful eye of a wolf—a fierce, bold wolf.

Remembering how she had thwarted his advances because of his past injuries, a sudden wave of urgency flooded over her.

It seemed inevitable; she wasn't going to escape today. So, as he approached, Eva instinctively circled to the other side of her desk.

Her movement made Adrian pause, and then he stood still, a mix of amusement and exasperation on his face as he watched her.

"Eva, what's with the hide-and-seek? If you were worried about someone barging in, that's not an issue anymore - the door's locked."

It was no joke for her, the fact that he had locked the door made things even scarier.

With the door unlocked, there had been the chance of someone walking in, a possibility that might have kept his actions in check.

But with the door locked? Eva was genuinely worried that if she conceded to his desires, he might devour her whole with the ravenous intensity he had just displayed.

Her heart wasn't against it, but she just couldn't bring herself to accept the situation here.

What if she were to make some indescribable noises that passersby might hear?

All sorts of scenarios had flashed through her mind, leading her to conclude this was something she just couldn't accept.

Seeing her rooted to the spot, Adrian grew visibly impatient - or perhaps more accurately, his desires were unfulfilled. He braced his hands on the counter, his gaze locked deep into hers.

"Eva, come here."

Eva hesitated for only a moment before flatly refusing, "No."

She knew all too well what would happen if she approached.

Adrian couldn't help but replace her reaction amusing.

"How long do you think you can resist ?" He quipped, as he leisurely closed the distance between them.

With each step he took, Eva countered, trying to reason with him, "Can't you control yourself? Your injuries..."

Before she could finish, he interjected, "The wounds have healed."

"It's only been a few days. How could you possibly be fully healed?"

"Even if my wounds haven't fully healed, that wouldn't stop me from kissing you, right?"

With each mention of 'kiss' and every swift step, Eva was caught off guard, and soon, she was swiftly ensnared into his embrace. "Eva..."

Adrian's breath was hot as he pulled her close, urgently seeking out her soft lips with his own.

His movements were fervent, as if he had been parched for a long time.
