My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1700

Chapter 1700 Has She Agreed to See You Already?

But why would such a thing happen the first day they met? Could it be that they shouldn’t have met

again after all?

It wasn’t until the car had set off for quite a while that Eva finally looked up in Louie’s arms and studied

his face by the moonlight outside the window. The light was dim, but his features were still as dashingly

handsome as ever. As she stared at his face, she noticed that he was about to kiss her on the

forehead, to which she reacted by instantly turning her head away to avoid him.

Louie had no choice but to press his thin lips to her hair while continuing to pat her gently on the back.

“Are you still scared?”

Eva wanted to ignore him, but her hands were still tightly clutching his shirt. To her frustration, she

realized that it was this guy who could really give her a sense of absolute security when she was

frightened.

After Louie’s car made its way back to the hotel’s underground parking lot, Eva got out of it, holding

onto the car door for support; her face was still quite pale from the scare. Her assistant Linda came

over to assist her, but she waved her hand and walked toward the elevator on her own.

He immediately caught up to her. The elevator spotlight illuminated her features, making her look

ghastly pale. “Are you alright?” he asked with concern in a baritone voice.

“That’s none of your concern,” Eva replied emotionlessly.

As soon as the elevator arrived, she stepped into it, followed by Louie and Linda. The elevator took

them up to the floor where her room was. After Linda swiped the room key and pushed the door open,

she entered the room, and so did Linda. Just when Louie was about to enter as well, however, she

looked up and stopped him, saying, “You’re not coming in.”

Louie breathed a quiet sigh. “Just come to me if there’s anything. I’m staying in the room next door.”

Sitting on the sofa, Eva said to Linda, “Turn on all the lights.”

Linda immediately turned on all the lights that could be turned on. Now the whole room was brightly lit,

with Eva quietly sitting on the sofa folding her arms like a beautiful sculpture.

Just when Linda wanted to head downstairs to buy some food, Eva suddenly stopped her and urged,

“Don’t go, Linda. Stay with me.”

After hearing this, Linda immediately came over and took Eva’s hand attentively. “Don’t worry, Eva. I’m

here, and I’m not going anywhere else.”

Eva nodded. “Just stay here with me and don’t go anywhere else tonight, okay?”

Linda reassured her, saying, “Alright, I’m not going anywhere. I’m right in front of you.” What a nasty

fright Eva just had today, she thought to herself.

She had also seen the crushed, dead dog, but she wasn’t frightened by it, nor did it weigh much on her

mind.

While Eva continued to sit there with folded arms, Linda asked another staff member to help buy things

for her. She also had a takeout of Eva’s favorite beef burger ordered for her since she hadn’t eaten

anything this evening.

On the other hand, it was already 10.00PM when Julian returned to the hotel after taking Jessie to

supper. After escorting her back to her room, he came into Louie’s room.

Louie was sitting on the sofa with somberness clouding his features. Even Julian would appear a tad

weaker in front of this man who had the aura of a professional businessman about him. Ever since

taking the helm of the Gilmore Corporation, he had learned a set of methods by which businessmen

dealt with things. Having seen much of human nature, he was lonely but strong, courageous, resolute,

and discreet. As a result, the air he gave off was not only that of a young nobleman but also that of a

steady and cold-hearted person steeled by hardships in the business world.

“Louie, has Eva already agreed to see you?” Julian asked curiously. Louie came all the way here, but

I’m afraid he’ll have no choice but to go back disappointed. As far as I know Eva, she may refuse to

see him even if he comes to her doorstep.

Louie was holding a glass of red wine in his hand, his deep, fathomless eyes concealing his thoughts.

“She came back in my car. Her car ran over a dog while she was on her way back, and she was

frightened by the sight of it.”

“Eva isn’t that faint-hearted, is she?”

“It wasn’t the dog that frightened her. It was the bad memories that it brought to her mind.”

Julian frowned. “You mean that ex of hers who died in a car accident?”

Louie shot a glance at him. “There’s something that I’ve never told her about, and I’m wondering

whether to tell her about it.”
