Chapter 145
After separating from Paula, Eva went to the hospital to accompany her grandmother.
During that time, Margaret asked her if everything had been taken care of. Eva originally wanted to say yes, but considering the medical examination, she said that she still had some loose ends to tie up. Hearing her words, Margaret understood and didn’t push her to get the examination done.
That day, Eva spent a long time at the hospital with Granny Blackwood. Seeing her recovering well and even looking a bit healthier, Eva felt happy for Granny Blackwood. However, when Eva returned home from the hospital that night, she heard that Adrian would be staying at the company to work overtime and wouldn’t be coming home. When the butler conveyed this message to Eva and Margaret, Margaret immediately frowned.
“Is the company really so busy? He’s been at the office all day and now he’s working overtime at night p>
The butler looked embarrassed, facing the questioning of the Blackwood family’s mistress, he could only awkwardly nod.
“Don’t be angry, madam. The company has indeed been quite busy lately, otherwise it wouldn’t be like this p>
However, Margaret still felt uncomfortable.
On the other hand, Eva, who heard the news, didn’t think there was a problem.
Since she couldn’t find him in the morning and he said he had a meeting, even without calling her, Eva guessed that he would probably avoid her in the evening as well. She just didn’t expect that he wouldn’t even come home in order to avoid her.
Thinking this, Eva chuckled lightly in her heart.
He can choose not to come home, but can he not go to the hospital?
Her grandmother was still recuperating in the hospital. Can he not go for a day or even longer?
Eva decided not to rush anymore.
Because now, there must be someone more anxious than her.
Bang!
A valuable vase was smashed onto the clean tiled floor, and shards scattered everywhere.
However, the person throwing the vase didn’t seem to find this satisfying.
In addition to the vase, she also took some valuable ornaments and threw them on the ground.
The servants trembled outside the door and didn’t dare to stop her.
It wasn’t until Vivian’s mother arrived and the servants reported, that Vivian stopped throwing things, but her mood was still not good as she turned and lay on her own bed.
“Mom, I’m not in a good mood and don’t feel like talking. Please leave p>
Mrs. Morrison glanced at the messy room and walked over to Vivian, whispering, “Quickly get someone to clean up here. Vivian, rest in my room tonight, and I’ll keep you company and chat with you, okay?” Vivian originally wanted to refuse, but for some reason, she quickly agreed.
Once she lay down with Vivian’s mother, she began to pour out her feelings.
“We agreed that Adrian would divorce Eva as soon as Granny Blackwood finished her surgery. How long has it been since Granny Blackwood’s surgery? They’re still not divorced p>
If they didn’t get divorced, that would be one thing, but what made her most angry was that she called Adrian and he claimed to be busy, then hung up the phone on her. Vivian felt that in all the years she had known him, she had suffered the most recently.
“Mom, before I went abroad, things weren’t like this. Adrian never treated me this way before. But now, I don’t know what’s happened. I’m scared. Will he not want me anymore p>
Vivian’s mother also expressed some concern after hearing this. After all, the Morrison family owed their success to the Blackwood family.
If Margaret ultimately didn’t want her Vivian, what would happen then?
Thinking of this, Vivian’s mother spoke softly, “He didn’t want to see you today because he’s busy with work? Have you visited his company p>
“No,” Vivian felt frustrated. Where would she find the time to visit his company?
“Look, you haven’t even verified it yet, but you’re already giving him a death sentence. Granny Blackwood has recently undergone surgery, and after surgery, she definitely needs time to rest and recover. Adrian must be busy taking care of his grandmother during this time, so he doesn’t have time to handle company affairs. Now that he’s free, he’ll handle the company’s affairs. Isn’t that a normal thing p>
“But… he didn’t handle company affairs like this in the past p>
“That was in the past. After all… he has spent all these years with Eva.” Vivian’s mother also realized a sense of crisis as she said this. “I disagreed when you wanted to go abroad. You should hold onto such an excellent man. What if someone else snatches him away halfway p>
“That won’t happen,” Vivian replied with frustration. “I saved his life p>
“Silly child, even if you saved his life, what does that matter? Men are supposed to be held in your own hands. Someone like him, if you lose him, you may never find a second one like him.” “So what you’re saying is that saving his life isn’t enough? But it’s clear p>
“Saving his life can make him incredibly grateful to you, but how long will that gratitude last? If you want him to never forget you, then find a way to hold onto him p>
“Hold onto him p>
“That’s right p>
“Vivian’s mother gave advice to her daughter: ‘How far have you and him developed p>
Vivian remained silent.
Seeing her like this, Vivian’s mother thought she was shy and unable to speak, so she asked, ‘What’s there to be embarrassed about with me? Have you gone further with him?’ Hearing this, Vivian’s expression turned gloomy.
It would have been better if they hadn’t brought up this topic, but now Vivian felt extremely defeated.
“Mom, don’t mention it. Right now, he and I have only reached the stage of embracing p>
Hearing this, Vivian’s mother was shocked.
“Just embracing?? You haven’t even kissed yet p>
Vivian didn’t want to speak, she closed her eyes, looking hopeless.
“No, Vivian… You’ve known each other for so long, and you often go to see him. How is it possible that you haven’t even slept together? Is Adrian a normal man p>
Upon hearing this, Vivian became even angrier.
Of course, Adrian is a normal man.
After all, Eva is pregnant.
But besides being a normal man, Adrian is also extremely restrained. He would never sleep around just because of his power and status, which is also one of the reasons why he is popular with women. But because of his calm restraint, women also feel frustrated because they have no chance to get close to him.
Except for Eva, who grew up with him since childhood, and Vivian, who saved his life.
He has always maintained his decency and would never take a step beyond boundaries.
Vivian acts poised and gentle in front of him, and Adrian doesn’t make a move unless she does. She absolutely cannot lower herself, otherwise, she doesn’t know how Adrian would see her.
As they interacted like this, Vivian didn’t think there was anything wrong. She even felt delighted because she believed Adrian respected her.
Until she heard the news of Eva’s pregnancy.
It felt as if someone had struck Vivian’s head hard.
So he’s not always calm and restrained. He also has moments of losing control p>
He can also do things with other women besides embracing p>
