Chapter 271: 271. Sly little thing_1

Having such a heated moment interrupted could only make Adam Jones’s expression unimaginably ugly.

His face turned to an iron blue as he glared at Elly Campbell’s slightly flushed cheeks, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction, "You woman, are you intentionally making things difficult for me?"

He clenched his molars, his voice hoarse with desire already out of control and carried a slight tremble.

At this moment, Elly Campbell had an unusually calm face, as if she hadn’t almost had a firearm accident with Adam just now.

In the face of Adam’s gritted questioning, she just coolly glanced at him and then calmly got dressed.

Only she knew how fast her heart was beating at this moment, her hands trembling as she put on her clothes.

This intense shock kept striking every nerve in her brain so that if she was slightly careless, it would feel as if her head was exploding.

"President Jones started playing with fire; what does that have to do with me?"

She straightened the wool sweater that she had wrinkled from gripping it, walked around Adam, and headed for the changing room exit. But her waist was tightly clutched by Adam Jones in an instant.

"Adam..."

"Elly, I’m in pain."

His hoarse voice, carrying increasingly hot air, rushed into Elly Campbell’s ears, the heat lingering around her auricles, making her earlobes turn red.

"If you don’t believe it, feel it."

With his hoarse voice tinted with a sense of grievance, he pitifully pulled Elly Campbell’s hand slowly downward, and this sudden movement startled her.

Elly Campbell hadn’t expected Adam to suddenly do this, and out of instinct, she fiercely gave a strong shake.

"Ugh..."

A pained grunt came from Adam’s mouth the next second, his face suddenly turning pale from pain at a specific area, unable to help but take in a cold breath as he glared darkly at the pretended calm Elly Campbell.

"Elly Campbell!"

He looked at Elly Campbell’s flushed face with an ugly expression, wishing he could swallow this woman whole, "Are you trying to make me childless?"

At his question, Elly Campbell thought about the slap she had just given without holding back with her strength, and couldn’t help but feel somewhat guilty.

Facing Adam’s angry and slightly resentful eyes, she held her neck rigidly and stated confidently, "You asked for it, being childless would serve you right!"

She felt the changing room was unbearably stuffy, not sure if it was because the heat was turned up too high, her cheeks growing hotter, like a fire burning.

Ignoring Adam’s furious eyes, she opened the door to the dressing room and hurried out in a fluster.

Adam’s face turned from black to red and red to black. After Elly Campbell left, he took a long time inside to recover from the recent swelling pain.

When he came out of the changing room, he still had a stern face. Seeing Elly Campbell sitting on the sofa as if the matter had nothing to do with her and raising an eyebrow at him when he appeared, "Resolved it?"

Adam clenched his teeth and his gaze turned sharp, "You still dare to ask?"

As the person who almost caused the young master Jones to be childless, Elly Campbell felt no pressure.

She stood up from the sofa and walked over to Adam, her lips curling upwards, "I promised to take President Jones out for a meal. Now that you’ve recovered, let’s go."

Adam’s cold gaze lingered on Elly Campbell’s smiling face, finding it particularly annoying, but the next second, he let out a chuckle and lightly touched her still blushing earlobe.
