Chapter 25 Vivian was taken aback upon hearing Eva didn’t want the money. She could tell that Adrian’s attitude towards Eva had changed. Adrian didn’t know about Eva’s pregnancy yet, but if he found out p> Vivian wasn’t even sure what choice Adrian would make. She even had a gut
Chapter 24 Eva had always perceived Vivian as gentle and charming because she always appeared gracious in public. But since her return to the United States, she had mentioned this twice. On the surface, it seemed like gratitude, but in reality, it was an assertion of ownership, which Vivian didn’t
Chapter 23 Vivian had been feeling uneasy ever since the day she deleted that message from Adrian’s phone. She had a feeling that since Eva had messaged Adrian, she probably didn’t have the courage to tell him face-to-face. But that didn’t ease her worries. She planned to meet Adrian that
Chapter 22 Eva had no appetite, but at Emily’s urging, she reluctantly finished the milk and took a few bites of the sandwich. Seeing that she couldn’t eat anymore, Emily stopped pushing. After tidying up, she sat back down. “How are you feeling now? Better, right p> “Hmm p> Emily

Chapter 18 Under Adrian’s cold gaze, Eva felt a bit uneasy. Didn’t he come with Vivian at lunchtime? Why wasn’t Vivian in the office now? Lost in thought, Eva didn’t catch what Carter asked her, but she quickly snapped back to reality and responded. Soon the report ended, and Carter
Chapter 17 Carter pulled his thoughts back to the present. He glanced at Eva across the table. She was dressed simply, her shoulder-length hair casually tied behind her ears and her face bare without makeup, offering a kind of pale beauty that invoked a sense of compassion. Carter knew that

Chapter 15 Emily was taken aback. “Why p> “Why else?” Eva replied. Emily gritted her teeth. “You’ve been with him for two years. Does he really not care about you at all? It’s his child. How can he be so cruel?” Eva fell silent. All her illusions about Adrian had
Chapter 14 Eva waited until sunset, but Adrian’s response never came. If it weren’t for the full signal, she would have thought her phone was out of service. When she was busy with work, she wished for such silence, longing for a bit more rest. But now p> It wasn’t

Chapter 12 Emily was stunned for quite a while before she reacted. “I, I thought she wasn’t coming back p> For a moment, neither of them spoke. Before the Hansen family went bankrupt, as Eva’s close friend, Emily had mingled in high society with her for a long time. Naturally,

Chapter 8 Eva’s heart was in turmoil. Adrian was the father of the child; he should know about its existence. But… she was truly afraid that if she revealed the truth, he would coldly force her to abort the child! These past few days, she had been dreaming frequently, and
Chapter 7 Eva spoke bluntly, and Vivian immediately felt a bit awkward. “I didn’t mean it that way p> Eva said nothing more; she didn’t care what Vivian meant. Before leaving, Brian prescribed some medicine for her and said to Vivian, “Even though your friend is reluctant to take medicine,
