Chapter 368: 368. Jones Confidential Leak_1

Adam Jones detected the coldness in her voice and felt his heart sink, fearing he might have angered Elly Campbell again. Reluctantly, he slowly let go of her hand.

His downcast eyes briefly flickered with despondence as he watched Elly Campbell start to walk away, and somewhat frantically, he called out to her, "Where are you going?"

He thought of the way she’d looked last night, seemingly indifferent yet resolute, and his heart clenched with sudden pain.

Yet he knew that persisting would only make Elly Campbell loathe him more and push him further away, but letting go was even more impossible for him.

After missing out for so many years, was he really content to miss out on her for a lifetime?

For the first time, the usually decisive Adam Jones did not know what to do.

As he hesitated, unsure, he heard Elly Campbell say, "I’m going to buy you some breakfast. The doctor said your stomach illness is quite severe, and if you don’t take care of it properly, you’re going to die."

When she reached the last part of her sentence, Elly Campbell’s gaze turned colder, with a hint of an unfriendly warning emerging.

But when Adam Jones saw her like this, a sense of joy rose from the depths of his heart, a happiness that spilled unrestrained from his eyes.
