Chapter 530: 530. Tonight you sleep with me_1

Ignored, Adam Jones felt gloomy inside. He moved forward to sit at her desk and said in a muffled voice, "I have to go on a business trip tomorrow, can’t you spend some time with me?"

Elly Campbell paused her typing, glanced sideways at him, and replied casually, "Won’t you be back in a couple of days?"

Adam Jones, with a "I won’t take no for an answer" look on his face, pulled over a chair to sit next to Elly, stretched out his long arm, and pulled Elly and her chair towards him.

"What are you doing?"

Elly raised her eyebrows and looked at the man sitting in front of her with a plaintive expression, listening as he said, "Haven’t you heard the phrase ’day like a year’?"

Elly: "..."

"For me, it’s not ’day like a year,’ it’s ’second like a year.’ Calculate it: 48 hours in two days, 60 minutes in an hour, 60 seconds in a minute. I’ll be 172,800 seconds without seeing you, and if one second equals one year, then that’s 172,800 years without seeing you. Do you know what that feels like?"

Elly: "..."

He was lost in his own world again.

His mental arithmetic was impressively good, though.

As she looked at the man opposite her with an aggrieved expression, Elly’s eye twitched fiercely.

This guy must be an impostor pretending to be Adam Jones’s twin brother.

Her hand was grasped in the palm of Adam Jones’s hand, "Spend a little time with me, please."

Even though Elly knew he was pretending, faced with his pitiable eyes, she surprisingly didn’t have the heart to refuse him.

After pondering for a moment, Elly said, "Let’s talk after I finish this email."

Upon hearing this, Adam Jones’s face lit up with joy, and a sly triumphant smile quickly flitted across his eyes as he looked down.

Having finished with the documents in hand, Elly turned to look at him and met his deep, intense gaze.

Elly’s heart felt scalded, quivering slightly, then she calmly avoided Adam Jones’s gaze.

"What would you like to talk about?"

Elly was the first to speak, breaking the awkwardly amorous tension between them.

Adam Jones stood up from his chair and pulled Elly to her feet. In her slightly annoyed gaze, he said in a hoarse voice, "While I’m away these next two days, will you miss me?"

His voice, tinged with a hint of hoarseness, low and soft, and his warm breath, felt like a feather lightly brushing over Elly’s heart.

She dodged Adam Jones’s heated gaze, not answering.

Feeling a light pinch around her waist from Adam Jones, followed by a gentle prod as if to punish her, he got the reaction he expected—Elly instinctively tried to move away.

Adam Jones didn’t intend to let her go, persistently asking, "You haven’t answered me, will you miss me if we don’t see each other for two days?"

"I won’t!"

Elly responded through clenched teeth.

"That answer is not good, try another one."

Elly: "..."

Looking up at Adam Jones’s domineering yet somewhat childish demeanor, Elly felt both annoyed and amused.

What had turned this aloof and domineering CEO into such a swaggering figure?

She struggled to free herself from his hands wrapped around her waist and began walking out of the study.

"Since you have to go on a business trip tomorrow, go to bed early tonight."

Adam Jones followed her as she walked out of the study.

The master bedroom was connected to the study; leaving the study took them straight to the master bedroom.

At that moment, little William Campbell was sound asleep on the bed.

Elly was preparing to go to the bathroom to wash up, not wanting to deal with the childish pest beside her. Yet, just a few steps away, she was pulled back by Adam Jones.

"Our son is sleeping soundly, so how about you sleep with me tonight, is that okay?"
