Chapter 318: 318. Photo on the Frame_1

The photo frame fell right at Elly Campbell’s feet.

Elly instinctively looked down, the back of the frame facing upwards. She couldn’t see the photo inside, but given that a straight-laced man like Adam Jones had it on his office desk, she could figure out with her toes how important the person in the picture must be.

Just as her curiosity peaked, Adam’s speed surpassed hers. He let go of her, picked up the frame, opened a desk drawer without thinking, and tossed it in.

Confronted with Elly’s curious gaze, a shade of guilt flitted across his eyes. He awkwardly avoided her gaze and said,
