Chapter 345: 345. No cure when it gets serious_1

James Churchill looked at Elly Campbell, and suddenly let out a chuckle, "Adam Jones would be upset if he knew how heartless you are, wouldn’t he?"

Hearing this, Elly couldn’t help but furrow her brows and raise her eyes to look at James, "Since when have you cared so much about his feelings?"

James’s face stiffened, and the next second, he couldn’t help but laugh helplessly and rub his forehead. He straightened up and said, "If it weren’t for you, I couldn’t care less if he died."

"I divorced him a long time ago; don’t drag me into this."

Elly frowned, looking somewhat displeased, and it wasn’t clear whether it was because James had guessed her thoughts, making her annoyed, or if she genuinely didn’t want to be associated with Adam Jones.

"I’m going to see my grandfather; let’s stop chatting."

After saying that, just as she was about to leave, she heard a voice tinged with disdain coming from behind her to the right, "Elly Campbell?"

Elly turned around in response and saw Lily Jones and Sophie Baker standing not far away, looking at her with unfriendly eyes.

If Sophie Baker had previously pretended to be respectful in front of her, now that she was probably about to return to the Campbell family, she seemed to have no intention of continuing to lower herself before Elly.

She looked at Elly with hatred in her eyes, as if she wanted to devour Elly whole.

Elly seriously couldn’t be bothered with them and turned to leave.

Lily Jones, however, wasn’t going to let Elly go so easily. Ever since she was driven out by her brother at Jones Corp the last time, she had been holding a grudge, believing that her brother had turned against her because of Elly’s influence.

Now, she loathed Elly even more.

"What’s the hurry? Feeling guilty because I caught you flirting with another man behind my brother’s back?"

Elly looked at Lily with the expression one would give to an imbecile.

"Lily Jones, I’ve realized that not only is your heart in bad shape, but your brain is not faring well either. You better hurry to the psychiatric department before it’s too late to be treated!"

Lily’s face darkened immediately, and she jumped up angrily, "Elly Campbell, what did you say?"

"It appears even your ears aren’t working well."

Elly gave Lily a cold look and couldn’t be less interested in dealing with her. She turned and walked away.

But Lily was relentless and just about to rush up to Elly when James blocked her way.

"Miss Jones, your brother has been hospitalized with a gastric hemorrhage and is lying in a hospital room. Aren’t you going to visit him?"

Lily, who had been looking as if she wanted to tear Elly apart, changed her expression to panic upon hearing that Adam had been hospitalized with a gastric hemorrhage.

"What? My brother has been hospitalized with a gastric hemorrhage?"

"Yes."

"Where is he? I’m going to see him right now."

Sophie Baker, standing to the side, felt displeased to see Lily’s attention so easily diverted. She would have loved nothing more than to see Lily and Elly tear into each other. With Lily as her sister-in-law in between, it wouldn’t be easy for Elly to return to the Jones family.

But now, hearing that Adam had been hospitalized, she too was a bit anxious. Clearly, Lily had no intention of seeking trouble with Elly, and Sophie wasn’t foolish enough to start a confrontation herself.

She immediately stepped forward and took Lily’s arm, "Lily, I’m really worried about Adam. Let’s hurry to see him."

"Yes."

James’s gaze swept across Sophie’s face with an ambiguous meaning, and then he snickered.

He didn’t take Lily to Adam’s ward but called a nurse to lead them there instead.

When they reached the door, Sophie suddenly thought of something and asked the nurse, "Who brought Mr. Jones here?"
