Listen Audiobook Version:



The next day, right after Adrian woke up, John called him.

"Jacob called me and said you didn't eat anything last night," John said.

Adrian didn't have a good mood considering he had only slept a few hours last night. Plus, waking up to Eva's heartless words didn't help improve his mood. He had a sour expression on his face. "What is it?" Adrian asked.

John clicked his tongue and said, "We're friends, can't I call to check on you?"

"Thanks, but no thanks," Adrian replied, wanting to hang up the phone.

"Wait," John intercepted him, sensing his intentions. "There are some things I want to talk to you about."

Adrian still had some patience left for his friend. "Go ahead."

"Did you hurt Vivian's feelings again?" John asked. Adrian's eyes flickered with mockery upon hearing this.

"What? Did she run to you for sympathy?" Adrian sneered.

"It wasn't her, it was Jason. He's really worried and asked me to talk to you."

Adrian responded, "John, if you're just idle with nothing to do..."

"Okay, okay," John hurriedly interrupted him. "I'm not just sitting idle, so spare me from doing anything. I came here to advise you and find out what you're thinking."

Having said that, John paused for a moment before continuing, "And you've been in Chicago for quite a long time this time, haven't you? Is it because of work that you haven't finished?" Adrian originally didn't want to tell him, but the memory of Eva's attitude yesterday made him silent for a while before saying, "She's back."

John instinctively asked, "Who?"

Adrian didn't answer him.

After a while, John's tone carried shock as he said, "You don't mean..."

John didn't mention any names, fearing it would hit a nerve.

But Adrian's silence confirmed that the person had indeed returned.

The two of them didn't hang up the phone and remained silent.

Finally, John took the initiative to ask, "What now? What are you going to do?"

Adrian lowered his gaze and said, "I don't know."

John became frustrated and said, "Five years have passed, and you still don't know? You don't know what you want to do?"

Hearing this, Adrian leaned back and closed his dark eyes.

How could he not know what he wanted to do?

For the past five years, day and night, every minute and second, his mind and body had been thinking about her.

"But I have to remind you, it's been five years. In the beginning, she left without hesitation. Who knows, she might have already gotten married and had children," John said. "Shut up."

"I know you can't bear to hear it, but can you say this is an impossible scenario? Five years is not five months."

Upon hearing this, Adrian clenched his jaw. "Didn't I wait patiently for five years?"

"You wait, but she has to wait with you? Don't forget, you have also made others wait in the past."

With that statement, Adrian was left speechless.

As he thought about that day, he realized that the person he had been waiting for never showed up.

She looked much prettier. When she let down her hair, there was an innocent charm mixed with sultriness, something not typically possessed by ordinary girls.

Five years can change many things.

Perhaps he could hire someone to investigate.

But soon, John spoke up, "Are you thinking about finding someone to investigate if she's married? I'm telling you, you better not. You hurt her five years ago, and now you want to hurt her again?" Upon hearing this, Adrian fell silent. "Then what should I do?"

Having known him for many years, this was the first time John detected a hint of confusion in his tone.

He was genuinely seeking his advice.

John sighed, "Can't you find out about her through proper means?"

After hanging up the phone, Adrian fell into deep thought.

Today, Michael personally drove Eva to work.

In the meantime, he also dropped off two kids at school.

On the way to the company, Eva kept looking out the window, seemingly lost in her own thoughts.

Of course, Michael knew what she was thinking.

Since she came back yesterday, she had been lost in contemplation.

Even so, Michael turned off the music in the car and proactively asked.

True enough, initially Eva didn't hear him speaking. It wasn't until Michael said the second sentence that she snapped out of her thoughts.

"Huh? Nothing, I'm just thinking about work."

Michael asked, "How's the company lately? I've been busy recently and haven't asked you. Do you need any help?"

"No, I'm good." Eva shook her head. "I can handle those things."

"If there's anything, don't handle it alone. What have you been busy with lately?"

"Not much, just wanted to expand the company's influence and recruit new people."

Because Eva's thoughts were not on this matter, she wanted to bring up the company's affairs herself to cover up.

But to her surprise, Michael smiled lightly after hearing it. "You should join my company."

Upon hearing this, Eva's expression changed and she hurriedly explained, "That's not what I meant. I didn't say these things to make you..."

"But what can we do?" Michael pushed up his glasses and softly said, "I came back for you, and I started the company for you. If you don't come to me, then who else do you want to find?" Eva remained silent.

She bit her lip, thinking that Michael was quite outstanding.

After a long time, she asked, "Is it because of him?"

Upon hearing this, Michael let out a sigh.

"He has his part in it, but it's also because I don't want to wait anymore. I really like you and the kids, and I want to be with you forever."

"So, have you considered it seriously?"

"I..." Eva looked at Michael, her red lips moved. "You have indeed been very good to me, if you are willing..."

The phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated.

Eva's words were interrupted, and she had to stop and take out her phone.

Michael furrowed his brows, a sense of foreboding creeping in.

"The manager?" Eva didn't expect to receive a call from the manager on her way to work. "What's going on?"

While Eva was focused on the phone call, she didn't notice that Michael in the driver's seat was inhaling lightly, listening intently to her conversation.

"What?" Eva was shocked, then hurriedly asked, "Who?"

A few seconds later, Eva fell silent, her emotions sinking along with her. It wasn't until a long while later that she spoke, "I understand, I'll be there right away." After hanging up the phone, Eva leaned back in her seat without saying a word.

"What's wrong?" Michael pursed his lips.

"The manager just called to tell me that someone has invested in the company."
