Chapter 370: She heard everything _1

This was also why Elly Campbell said she was going to buy breakfast for Adam Jones, thinking she was looking for an excuse to leave.

But at this moment, watching the breakfast Elly Campbell had bought for him from outside, his mood was uncontrollably joyful, and the corners of his lips curved upwards, unable to be suppressed.

"Why did you make a special trip to buy me breakfast, when the hospital has food?"

Though he said this, that playful smile was particularly obvious.

Elly Campbell gave him a glance but did not respond.

The reason she went out to buy it was because he was a picky eater who was not used to the hospital food, right?

She remembered one year after they got married, he was hospitalized with acute gastritis as well, and he adamantly refused to eat the special nutritional meals the dietitians had prepared for him.

No amount of persuasion from anyone worked.

In the end, it was only after she had argued herself hoarse that he reluctantly forced himself to eat one bowl, and then he told her with a straight face that he never wanted to eat that kind of ’pig feed’ for the rest of his life.

Watching Adam Jones take a small spoonful of porridge and put it in his mouth, his eyebrows immediately furrowed, and his face showed undisguised disgust.

But quickly, that trace of distaste vanished as if the scene she had just witnessed was an illusion.

Even so, Elly Campbell still saw that Adam Jones’ manner of eating was somewhat forced, looking just like the time he ate those nutritional meals years ago.

After all, having loved such a person for so many years, she knew some of his quirks.

He may look as unapproachable as a flower on a high cliff, but his picky eating was just like that of a three-year-old child, leaving everyone at a loss for what to do with him.

So, seeing him now obviously disliking the taste but still eating it bite by bite, Elly Campbell was a bit surprised.

Finally, after he finished the porridge in front of him, Adam Jones seemed like a convict whose execution was over, and he visibly sighed with relief.

Disgusting!

He complained in his mind, but there was no expression of dislike on his face. Looking at Elly Campbell, he smiled in a flattering way, "It’s delicious, thank you, Elly."

Elly Campbell: "..."

She didn’t respond to his comment, reaching out to collect the bowls and chopsticks on the table. Remembering what she had heard Robert Green say while standing outside the door earlier, she said casually, "I heard what Robert Green said a moment ago."

"I didn’t doubt you!"

As soon as Elly Campbell finished speaking, Adam Jones immediately denied it, fearing that she would misunderstand him.

This time, Elly Campbell wasn’t concerned about that. Leaking such business secrets as a bidding baseline wasn’t hard to investigate, and even if Adam Jones suspected her, she wasn’t worried about it.

The innocent are clear of conscience!

She was just taken aback by how anxiously Adam Jones was denying it, her expression revealing slight surprise.

Seeing her silent, Adam became even more anxious, "Elly, you have to believe me, I really didn’t doubt you. I will have someone look into this matter thoroughly!"

Elly Campbell looked at him, her expression calm, "I know."

Adam Jones didn’t know whether Elly Campbell truly believed what he said because of the mistake he made eight years ago, he always felt uneasy around her.

Just then, Elly Campbell’s phone rang, a call from James Campbell.

Seeing the name flashing on her phone, Elly Campbell raised an eyebrow as if she had expected this outcome, and she answered the call, "How is it? CEO Campbell, is the money ready?"

Adam Jones heard Elly Campbell’s question and glanced at her, seeing her lips curved up mischievously and her beautiful eyes filled with a hint of cunning.
