Chapter 293: 293. Just left me behind like that_1

Elly Campbell’s expression abruptly stiffened, and her consciousness instantly cleared up, with the events of the night gradually intruding into her mind.

She abruptly sat up from Adam Jones’s embrace, reached out to touch his forehead, and seeing that his temperature had returned to normal, she sighed with relief.

Just as she was about to retract her hand, a broad palm covered the back of her hand, pressing it against his forehead.

She unnaturally averted her eyes and, without any change in expression, withdrew her hand from Adam’s palm, and pretended to be calm, "Your fever is gone, we should have the doctor check on you later."
