Chapter 219: 219. Became a Luxury_1

In fact, Elly Campbell didn’t know what Adam Jones was up to at all. How could they, who were getting divorced, share a room in the dead of night without feeling awkward?

Elly thought Adam was a scumbag, deliberately antagonizing her, so much so that even when she was sick, he wouldn’t let her have peace.

Well, if he wanted to stay here, then let him stay.

Elly decided to just ignore him. At this moment, her dizziness had somewhat subsided, but she still felt somewhat unwell.

When she walked to the bed and was about to lift the blanket, she paused, remembering that earlier she had vomited on it and that the bed was a mess. When had the caretaker come to change it?

With that thought, Elly glanced at Adam, then lay down without a word.

With Adam present like an imposing Buddha, Elly was easily affected, but she couldn’t withstand the natural reactions of her body. After the commotion earlier, she felt even more tired.

After lying down for a while, she fell into a deep sleep.

In fact, although Adam didn’t leave the sickroom, he also dared not make any noticeable noise, afraid of disturbing Elly’s rest.

A long time later, hearing Elly’s steady breathing, Adam quietly approached, pulled up the blanket to cover her, and checked her complexion. Seeing that she was sleeping fairly well, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The VIP ward was decorated with a luxurious home style, not only equipped with essential medical facilities but also furnished with an extra two-meter-wide bed for family members or caregivers to sleep on.

But Adam didn’t trust leaving Elly alone; he didn’t go to sleep on that bed but instead pulled over a small recliner from inside the ward and placed it beside Elly’s sickbed.

Squeezing his tall frame into the tight space wasn’t comfortable, but seemingly being closer to Elly made him feel more at ease, so this discomfort didn’t seem to matter much.

He turned on his side, looking at Elly’s sleeping face as if the whole world had narrowed down to just the two of them.

He realized that just watching the person beside him sleep could bring an unprecedented sense of fulfillment.

As he watched, his brow suddenly furrowed, as it struck him that during the three years of their marriage, they had never spent a moment together like this one.

What should have been the most normal kind of interaction between a husband and wife now seemed a luxury to him.

This feeling wasn’t good, far from good.

The deeper he thought, the more Adam felt resentful, feeling like he had missed out on many things he should not have missed.

During those three years of marriage, he could have had a much better time with Elly.

With this thought, Adam’s frown deepened even further.

His hand involuntarily reached out, gently caressing Elly’s face, and his body subconsciously moved closer to her.

"What was I even competing with you for?"

Now he realized, it was truly pointless. In the end, the one who got hurt from all that competition was himself.

He stared at Elly for a long time, finding his wife more beautiful than ever. As he watched, he gradually fell asleep without realizing it.

Adam was accustomed to waking up early. Usually, around six o’clock, he would be running in the gym downstairs in his house. Today, at this time, he naturally woke up.

Plus, the recliner he was lying on was so small that he hadn’t slept well all night.

Getting up, he even felt his muscles ache all over.

His hand pressed against his neck, turning it, and just then, his phone on the side began to vibrate softly.
