Chapter 349: 349. Can you accompany me for a while_1

But he couldn’t afford to care about that now, as if he was worried that Elly Campbell would misunderstand what she had just seen, he walked towards her with an anxious expression.

"It’s not what you saw."

He was somewhat nervous, with cold sweat starting to form in his palms, and he was also terrified that Elly Campbell might once again misunderstand his relationship with Sophie Baker.

Sophie Baker had not expected that her impulsive action just now would happen to be seen by Elly Campbell, and though she was afraid of Adam Jones, part of her was secretly pleased that Elly had witnessed that scene.

With lowered eyebrows and eyes, she smiled smugly.

Elly Campbell’s gaze passed through Adam Jones and glanced at Sophie Baker, a touch of mockery appearing in her eyes.

Even though she didn’t mind whether Adam Jones and Sophie Baker really had anything between them, did she really think she would fall for such a melodramatic ploy?

Did she think everyone else was as stupid as she was?

Adam Jones was watching Elly Campbell’s face nervously, trying to read something from her expression, but Elly Campbell remained indifferent, which made his heart feel even more panicked.

Elly Campbell didn’t have that much time to waste on the scene she had just witnessed, but seeing the pallor on Adam Jones’s face, she frowned subtly and said:

"Are you tired of living?"

Adam Jones was startled, then thought that Elly Campbell asking this question must be because she was upset about the scene of Sophie Baker hugging him earlier, and he showed a helpless expression again, like a child who had done something wrong, he told Elly Campbell:

"It’s really not what you saw."

Adam Jones had never known he could be this tongue-tied, unable to think of anything else to say except for that line.

While he thought about it, he couldn’t help feeling a bit wronged.

Elly Campbell twisted her brow slightly, not understanding where Adam Jones’s inexplicably wronged look came from, as if she, this witch, had bullied him.

"Don’t you know you’re bleeding from the stomach? Why did you run out here for no reason?"

Her tone was somewhat harsh, although she didn’t want to bother with him, yet seeing the pale, aggrieved look on his face, she actually felt a bit of pity for him.

Adam Jones paused, looking at Elly Campbell’s indifferent demeanor, uncertain whether she believed what he had just said or not, he hesitated before saying, "I came looking for you."

"Looking for me?"

This time it was Elly Campbell’s turn to be stunned, looking at the faint hope in Adam Jones’s eyes, she frowned again, "What for?"

"You brought me to the hospital, then left me there."

Adam Jones grumbled, and Elly Campbell couldn’t resist glancing at him.

For whom was he putting on this aggrieved little wife act?

"What else? Did I make you drink so much that you’re bleeding from the stomach?"

Elly Campbell gave him a cold look and said, "Go back and lie down, have the hospital arrange a caretaker for you."

After saying that, she was ready to leave.

"Elly."

Adam Jones stepped forward and grabbed her hand, the pain in his stomach becoming sharper.

But he endured it without saying a word, just holding tightly to her arm, looking at Elly Campbell with pitiful, puppy-dog eyes, he pursed his lips, "Can you stay with me for a while?"

Even though he was desperately holding back the pain in his stomach, Elly Campbell could clearly hear the weakness in his voice.

After all, she was a doctor, well aware of what a gastric bleed entailed, and seeing Adam Jones standing there, she felt impatient and her heart sank, "Get back to bed quickly, do you want to live or not?"
