Chapter 217: 217. Take off clothes_1

"Thank you."

Elly Campbell casually replied and, looking at the lingering filth on the clothes she was wearing, scrunched her brows in disgust and got out of bed.

Seeing this, Adam Jones approached with a darkened face and coldly said, "After all this, are you still not going to behave?"

At the mention of this, Elly Campbell felt a surge of anger. If he hadn’t been so close to her, would she have vomited?

She glared fiercely at Adam Jones and said, "Didn’t you tell me to go ahead and vomit if I could? I did, now can’t you just get lost?"

"Elly Campbell, you... you..."

Adam Jones wanted to scold her, but after searching for the right words, he couldn’t find any suitable to curse her with. In the end, all that was left was "You ungrateful wretch," and with a kick to the trash can by his foot, he stormed out the door.

Elly Campbell didn’t bother with him, intending to go to the washroom from the bed, but as soon as she stood up, another wave of dizziness made it impossible for her to walk even a step.

She could only sit on the bed to rest, but the sticky feeling on her body and the sour stench coming from the filth made it hard for her to bear.

With no other choice, she gritted her teeth and stood up again. The door was pushed open once more, and Elly Campbell thought it was the duty nurse coming over. She was about to ask the nurse for help, but upon looking up, she saw Adam Jones had returned.

Not only had he returned, but he had also come back in a hospital gown.

Elly Campbell: "..."

Adam Jones, wearing a cold expression, walked in and held another set of hospital clothes in his hand.

He tossed the hospital clothes to her side, "Change your clothes."

Elly Campbell paused for a moment, rendered somewhat speechless by Adam Jones’s inexplicable behavior. She listened as he coldly said, "You can’t bear to change out of these smelly clothes, what are you trying to do?"

Elly Campbell: "..."

What did he mean she couldn’t bear to change them? It was just that his inexplicably returning behavior had left her somewhat speechless.

Her body felt sticky and smelt foul; she naturally couldn’t tolerate it and reached for the clothes to head to the washroom. However, as soon as she got up, her body swayed noticeably.

Adam Jones reflexively reached out to support her arm, furrowed his brows, and directly picked up Elly Campbell, heading towards the washroom.

"Adam Jones, what are you trying to do now?"

"Seeing you can’t walk steadily, I’m afraid you’ll fall onto that disgusting stuff and make me nauseous."

"You..."

Elly Campbell had a headache from anger, "Then why did you come back?"

Adam Jones choked for a moment, his face turning a bit red, before muttering, "I felt like it."

Elly Campbell: "..."

The VIP ward’s washroom was spacious enough, equipped not only with complete washing facilities but also a large bathtub with massage functions.

Elly Campbell placed the set of hospital clothes into the wardrobe in the bathroom and saw Adam Jones leaning against the doorframe without any intention of leaving. She couldn’t help but frown.

"Get out."

Adam Jones, leaning on the door, didn’t move but just glanced at the wound on her forehead and said, "You go ahead and wash. I’ll wait here for you."

He stated it as if it were the most natural thing, showing no sign of self-awareness as an ex-husband.

Elly Campbell’s face darkened again, and she said through gritted teeth, "Adam Jones, get out!"

She was irritated by the sour stench on her body, but clearly, Adam Jones had no intention to make things easy for her; not only did he not leave immediately, he even stepped toward her.

He reached for the clothes on her body but was blocked by Elly Campbell’s outstretched hand, "What are you trying to do?"

Her eyes were cold and wary, which made Adam Jones furrow his brows.
