Chapter 1173 - 1169: The Accident... Happened (Part 1)
"Young Madam, you can’t go out!" A group of maids blocked the doorway."I’m bored staying at home, can’t I just go out to get some fresh air?"
The maids shook their heads, and finally, the butler came over, "Young Madam, please wait a moment, I’ll go and ask Second Young Master for permission."
Ask for permission, ask for permission, just to go out and I have to ask for permission!
Soon, the butler brought Luke Land over.
"Where are you going?" he asked in a deep voice.
"A crew gathering." Last night, the director called her; the new drama she filmed before her pregnancy was about to air, and the director gathered the main crew members for a celebratory banquet at a five-star hotel.
"I’ll go with you."
"No." Eva Miller pouted, "I don’t want to go with you."
"Then I’ll have a maid go with you."
"No, thanks."
"You have two options: either I go with you, or a maid accompanies you."
Seriously.
"Alright, alright, you..." Eva Miller pointed randomly at a maid, "You, come with me."
Luke Land wasn’t comfortable letting her go out alone, but since she didn’t want him to accompany her, he had no choice but to instruct the maid a little before letting them leave.
When Eva Miller arrived at the hotel as planned, she glanced around at the people seated in the private room; everyone was already there except for her.
"Sorry, Director, I’m late." Eva Miller sat down and apologized to the director.
"Oh, what are you saying? Where’s the Second Young Master? Didn’t he come along?" The director and everyone at the table looked behind her, disappointed to not see Luke Land.
"Oh, he’s busy with work, couldn’t make it," Eva Miller casually brushed off.
"I see..." The disappointment was evident on the director’s face.
While everyone chatted animatedly, Eva Miller didn’t feel much like participating. At some point, Emma Hughes from the same crew approached her.
"Miss Miller, I never imagined you’d find such a good husband."
Looking at her, Emma Hughes couldn’t hide her envy, her...jealousy.
Emma Hughes was the second female lead in Eva Miller’s drama, but they weren’t from the same company, and Eva only exchanged a few words with her occasionally when in the crew, so she used the formal address ’Miss Miller.’
"What a good husband..." Eva Miller shook her head helplessly.
Seeing her dismissive expression, Emma Hughes felt a bit uncomfortable inside.
Truly blind to her blessings, her husband is the Second Young Master of the Golden Era Consortium, after all.
Emma Hughes pursed her lips, saying no more.
With so many people at the table, the atmosphere turned chaotic. Remembering she was pregnant, Eva Miller couldn’t handle the setting and decided to escape to the restroom.
But within minutes, an accident...happened.
When Eva Miller went to the restroom, she happened to walk in as the cleaning crew was working, the floor covered in soapy water and a bit slippery. Her foot slipped, and she fell heavily to the ground...
"Ah!" Eva Miller clutched her stomach, tears of pain streaming down her face, feeling a warm liquid flowing down. The fall was truly severe.
The director and a few others rushed over upon hearing the news, immediately calling for an ambulance.
"How could you be so careless? I’m going to file a complaint! How can you clean during such a busy time?" The director was nearly frantic, how would they explain to Luke Land if something happened to the baby in Eva Miller’s stomach?
