When Mian narrowed her eyes, Gavin chuckled, "I was just kidding, don't be so serious. The only pregnant woman in this room is Adriana and that baby is my niece or nephew, I can't kill it. Well, I would if Dr. Mian hadn't come here."
Pausing for a while, he inquired, "Apart from Adriana, no one else is pregnant right? What about you Dr Mian, are you pregnant yet?" When she did not say anything, he chuckled, "Well, Mr Li needs to work hard and fill your uterus."
"Let us go Gavin, please," Adriana requested. After Gavin sent her a photograph of Nathan in a parking lot, talking to someone over the phone along with a picture of himself inside a car holding a gun followed by a video in which he explained how he could easily target Nathan from the direction he was seeing him. Knowing how he had harmed Nathan in the past, she did not think twice before agreeing with him. She then asked the guards to take her to the supermarket where according to Gavin, someone would be waiting to bring her to him.
"Let you go?" Rubbing his chin, he pretended to think for a while and chuckled, "No, I don't think I am ready to let you go right now."
Looking at Mian, he added, "Dr. Mian, do you know that I had a thing for Adriana in the past?" Shrugging his shoulders, he sighed, "Well, I do still feel for her but too bad she is my sister-in-law now."
Walking towards them, he sat down on the chair again. "I met Adriana in a supermarket, she was wearing this cute peach colour dress and she was buying gum. I was standing right behind her in the queue—" Taking a deep breath, he sighed, "I still remember the sweet smell off her hair and her skin had turned a little red because it was too hot that day."
Pausing for a while, he frowned, "But after that day I never saw her again no matter how hard I tried to look for her until six months later. Nathan brought her home and introduced her to everyone as his girlfriend." Cupping his own cheeks, he sighed, "Now you tell me Mian, how is this fair? I saw her first but all of a sudden she came back into my life as my sister-in-law. My love story ended before it could even potentially start."
Taking a sip from the glass again, he took a deep breath, "Years later, I met another woman during a medical conference. She was wearing a simple blue top and jeans but she was still the most beautiful woman in the entire conference room. But later I found out that she had a childhood sweetheart too."
Looking at the clueless expression on Mian's face, he chuckled, "You don't remember bumping into me that day, right Dr. Mian?" Without waiting for her reply, he added, "I still have the handkerchief that you had dropped that day."
Keeping quiet for quite some time, he helplessly shook his head, "Both of you rejected my love even before I could make a move, it's sad that you did not get a chance to experience hoe beautiful Gagin��s love is."
"Since you don't want to harm the baby or any of us, what do you want?" Mian inquired, she couldn't understand what he exactly wanted to do.
"Why did I call you both here? Why? Hold on, let me think." Pretending to think for a while , he chuckled, "No specific reason, I just thought it would be fun."
Just then several footsteps were heard in the hallway.
Getting up, Gavin made his way towards the door and locked it, "Just when I was thinking why aren't your beloved partners here yet." Looking at Mian, he chuckled, 'I knew that you would never come here without taking any kind of precautions, you did not disappoint me Dr. Mian."
Taking a gun out of the drawer, he sighed, "I didn't want to resort to any more violence but you people left me with no other choice."
Keeping the gun on the table, he added, "But I guess we still have time, I mean they will enter the house and examine all the rooms. Then they will find Josh and his wife, question them and then they will finally come here. We still have ten to fifteen minutes."
Gulping in nervousness, Adriana quickly grabbed the gun from the table and pointed it towards Gavin. Getting up, she snapped, "Don't try to move."
Crossing his legs, Gavin scratched his forehead. "Hmm didn't see that coming."
"Mian go open the door and you, don't move," she remarked.
Without wasting any time, Mian rushed towards the door and tried to open it but unfortunately, the door was jammed. Tying to pull it harder, she groaned, "It's not opening."
Gulping in nervousness, Adriana instructed, "Try harder Mian." Before tightening her grip around the gun. She had gathered all her guts to grab the gun from the table and point it towards Gavin.
"Give me the gun Adriana, it's loaded and not good for the baby." Getting up, Gavin sighed, "Be good and give me the gun."
Taking a step back, she stuttered, "D-Don't move, stay right there."
Left with no other choice, Mian started banging the door. "Help, we are here."
Pushing the table aside, Gavin slowly made his way towards Adriana. "Are you sure you wanna do this? Are you willing to stake your baby's life for getting me caught? Think about all the struggles that you had to go through for having this baby. Despite all the consequences, this baby is like a miracle and I think there is a high chance that you are carrying twins. So are you willing you give away everything, your babies for someone like me? Think about it Adriana, I know how badly you want this baby."
Just then, Gavin grabbed the gun from her hand and wrapped his arm around her neck. At the point of the gun on the side of her forehead, he chuckled, "Now this is fun."
