Chapter 534: 534. Pretending to sleep won’t work anymore_1

Having stood in the same spot for a long time, Elly finally moved her gaze away from the door of the study and rose to lie down on the bed.

She didn’t want to recall the desolate expression on Adam’s face, but the moment she closed her eyes, her mind was flooded with the disappointed and sorrowful look he had given her and the faint redness in the corners of his eyes, causing her heart to become severely unsettled.

Lying on the bed, Elly felt no sleepiness; when she thought of Adam asking earlier if she would miss him, she thought she probably would.
