Leaving While Pregnant：He Goes Crazy！

After returning to their respective positions, Eva earnestly immersed herself in her work.

Before going upstairs, the two of them agreed to take their grandmother to the hospital tomorrow and tell her after work, but they tacitly didn't mention the topic of divorce.

Last time, out of anger, they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau early in the morning, but their grandmother's surgery didn't go smoothly as a result, but was hindered instead.

This time, Eva wasn't in a hurry either. She decided to wait for her grandmother to recover well after the surgery before going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce certificate. It was the same either way. Besides, it was also to prevent any unexpected situations.

That's how she thought, and Adrian probably thought the same way.

By noon, Eva was still going downstairs as usual to buy a bowl of porridge. Today, she wanted to try a different kind of vegetarian porridge.

However, just as she walked downstairs and was about to talk to the boss, her phone rang.

When she saw that it was a call from Michael, Eva was somewhat surprised and instinctively turned her head to look at the parking space she had found out about a few days ago.

Sure enough, a familiar car happened to be parked there.

Seeing her turn around, the car window rolled down, revealing Michael's handsome profile. He waved at Eva with his phone in hand, a gentle smile playing on his lips.

Seeing him here, Eva was still a bit surprised. She hesitated for two seconds, then walked over.

"What are you doing here?"

Michael curled his lips and put down his phone. "I happened to be nearby for work, never expected to run into you. Lucky me."

"Is it really such a coincidence?"

In fact, Eva had doubts about his explanation. Even if he was here for work, it wouldn't be so coincidental for him to park his car here and call her just as she was going downstairs. Seeing the tie clip, she had given him, the emotions on Eva's face faded slightly.

Michael noticed and raised an eyebrow.

"Don't believe me?"

Eva smiled faintly, neither admitting nor denying.

Michael didn't rush to explain, but simply smiled and said, "Since we happened to meet, how about having a meal together?"

Eva hesitated, feeling like refusing.

"Didn't you say last time that you owed me a replacement for the ruined farewell party?" Michael suddenly interrupted her.

Yes, last time he said he owed her, but then he didn't eat much when she took him to have porridge.

It was indeed awkward.

"Alright then." Eva reluctantly agreed.

Seeing her agreement, Michael got out of the car. Just as he was about to open the car door for Eva, two well-dressed men passing by quickly walked towards them. "Mr. Cooper."

The two men seemed to not even notice Eva and kept going towards Michael with great enthusiasm. "Mr. Cooper, I thought you had left. It turns out you're still here. Would you do us the honor of having lunch with us?" Without showing any signs of discomfort, Michael took a step to the side, politely saying, "I'm afraid I don't have the opportunity. I already made plans." "Made plans?"

The two men paused, then noticed the slender figure standing beside the car.

They recognized her and realized it was Eva.

"Mrs. Blackwood? How did you end up here? Are you the one who had lunch with Mr. Cooper?"

Eva nodded and greeted the other person, "Hello, Mr. Jones."

Michael noticed their acquaintance and became less indifferent towards Mr. Jones. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Eva and I were neighbors when we were children."

Mr. Jones couldn't help but sigh, "I see. Since Mr. Cooper has an appointment with a beauty, we won't disturb you."

Mr. Jones left with his subordinates shortly after. As soon as they left, Michael opened the car door for Eva. "Get in, little girl."

Upon hearing this, Eva glanced at Michael and didn't immediately get in the car. "Didn't we agree not to use that nickname anymore?"

In the past, when she was younger, Michael would always address her like this as a friend, so she didn't think much of it. But now, at her age, it felt peculiar to be addressed that way.

"You're right, then Eve?" (Translation: To promise)

Eva frowned. "That nickname won't do either."

"Why?"

Michael couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"Would calling you Eve remind you of someone?" Eva: "..."

"If that's the case, then I should use it more often."

Michael said, and seeing her standing still, he tapped her forehead with his hand.

"Why aren't you getting in the car? Are you waiting for me to invite you?"

She reluctantly got in the car. After settling down, Eva repeated,

"Please don't call me that way. It's not suitable for my current identity."

"What is your current identity?" Michael drove the car out and smiled faintly. "At my farewell party, everyone was talking about your and Adrian's fake marriage, and some people even think that you've taken Vivian's place." Eva had no ability to refute him and could only purse her lips and remain silent. Michael glanced at her seemingly sulky expression and couldn't help but laugh. "Are you angry?"

Eva could only say in a muffled voice, "No, you're speaking the truth."

"As long as you're not angry. In your current situation, if you don't adjust your mindset properly, you'll easily fall into a predicament."

"I know." Eva lowered her gaze.

In fact, she had almost fallen into a predicament before, but luckily, she had a better mindset.

Otherwise...

The car had already left the company's entrance and entered the busy street. While paying attention to the traffic, Michael asked, "How's Vivian's injury? It was so severe when she got hit, will it leave a scar?" "Probably." Eva replied listlessly.

"What about Adrian? Has he been taking care of her at the hospital these past few days?"

These questions made Eva automatically furrow her brows. If she didn't know that Michael didn't come here on purpose today, she would have really misunderstood.

Even so, Eva directly said, "If you want to know, you should call him yourself and ask."

Hearing this, Michael couldn't help but laugh. "Calling him myself would only make it feel uncomfortable."

"So, you're not happy with how I approached you?"

"You said you didn't care, didn't you?"

"

"1

......

Well, once again, she was left speechless.

She looked out the window and said in a helpless tone, "Next time, you should probably not coincidentally come over."

"Why?" Michael laughed cheerfully. "Is it too piercing to hear? Didn't we maintain it quite well the previous night?"

Eva did not reply.

"But what happened between you and him? When I was abroad, I heard the news and thought Adrian had fallen in love with someone else."

"No," Eva shook her head, her tone indifferent.

"It's probably hard to forget a life-saving favor."

"Actually, gratitude and affection should not be confused. If you don't like someone, it has nothing to do with gratitude."

Eva believed the same. There are so many acts of heroism in the world, but how many couples are together simply because they saved each other? Most of it is just gratitude and appreciation. And perhaps falling in love because of it is just destined fate.
