Chapter 642: 642. Honey, I was wrong_1

The originally distant tone softened a bit, she looked up at him from his embrace, a frown on her face, "Although I believe you, that photo is still annoying to me, I care about it."

Adam Jones’s expression stiffened, first with bewilderment in his eyes, then followed by joy which rendered him somewhat at a loss.

"Elly, I..."

"I waited all day for you to explain the photo, but why didn’t you say anything about it? As soon as you got back, you started with the ambiguous comments. What, you created a scandal, and now I have to comfort you?"

Elly Campbell said with a stern face, but her demeanor was clearly not as distant as it was during the day.

Adam Jones was scolded by his wife, yet far from being irritated, he was actually delighted.

With pursed lips trying to suppress a smile, he wrapped Elly Campbell in his arms, apologizing softly, "I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I wasn’t really blaming you, I was blaming myself. Because of the mistakes I’ve made before, I’m just so scared in front of you that you’ll leave me behind at any moment because of the wrongs I’ve done in the past."

Elly Campbell did not pick up on his apology, just snorted coldly and turned her face away.

Adam Jones reached out again, shamelessly yanked her face back, leaned down to kiss her on the mouth, and then continued to speak in a muffled voice:

"And thinking of you going to buy ’contraceptives’, my heart felt even more uncomfortable..."

"Wait!"

Elly Campbell, with a frown, interrupted him, her eyes narrowing, "Contraceptives?"

Seeing the dangerous gleam in his wife’s eyes, Adam Jones inwardly cursed the situation as bad.

He might have again complicated a simple matter into a tormented love drama in his mind.

"It’s nothing."

Avoiding Elly Campbell’s sharp gaze, he didn’t want to continue the topic.

But Elly Campbell didn’t plan to let him off so easily. Thinking back to the day before yesterday when she came back from buying the enteritis medicine and he was gloomy all day without talking to her, she found it strange at the time, but now, she understood.

"Adam Jones!"

She clenched her back teeth, her gaze icy as she gave him a forceful death stare.

"Wife, I was wrong."

Adam Jones immediately apologized. Seeing Elly Campbell aiming a kick at his knee, he deftly moved out of his embrace and turned to walk towards her coat hung in the closet, and pulled out a small box from it.

In front of Adam Jones’s apprehensive look, she "threw" the box at him, "Take your ’contraceptive’!"

Adam Jones instinctively caught it, and upon inspecting it, found it to be a box of medicine for the digestive system.

His heart leaped with joy at first, but soon, a tense expression appeared on his face. He quickly walked over to her, "Are you having stomach trouble?"

Thinking of the day she had stomach discomfort and took medicine while he neglected her and gave her the cold shoulder for the entire day, Adam Jones wished he could beat himself up.

"It’s already better."

Elly Campbell kept a straight face and pushed him away, but he clung on like a plaster, impossible to shake off.

"Really, is it better now? I’ll accompany you to the hospital to get it checked out."

"No! It’s better."

Elly Campbell pushed him away again, and he came back yet again. After several rounds of this, Elly Campbell burst into laughter out of frustration.

"Get lost! Just get lost! Seeing you just annoys me."

Elly Campbell lifted her foot to kick him, but Adam Jones was quicker and caught her ankle, gently tugging her. Elly’s balance faltered, and she suddenly fell backward.
