Chapter 649: 649. It’s just getting a certificate, is it necessary to make such a fuss_1

Dressed by her husband, Elly Campbell enjoyed the treatment befitting a queen with absolute peace of mind, curving the corners of her mouth imperceptibly.

It was not until Adam Jones drove her to the Bureau of Civil Affairs that Elly realized why he got up early in the morning and acted with such eager urgency.

Looking at the still tightly shut doors of the Bureau of Civil Affairs, then glancing at the time displayed as 7:30 in the morning on her watch, she twitched at the eye corner, hard.

Watching someone next to her, who looked usual, with a bit of anticipation and excitement, Elly couldn’t help saying,

"You wake me up early in the morning without sleeping yourself, just to make me wait here for their door to open?"

Facing his wife’s accusatory eyes, Adam touched the tip of his nose guiltily and then brazenly said,

"I just wanted to collect our marriage certificate at the earliest opportunity."

He grabbed Elly’s hand and held it in his palm, feeling the moisture that came from her palm, Elly frowned, "Why are your palms so sweaty?"

"Nervous," he said.

Elly: "..."

Adam turned to face her, holding her hands tight, and repeated, "Wife, I’m a bit nervous."

The corner of Elly’s eyes twitched even more sharply.

It’s just collecting a certificate. It’s not like it’s the first time, what’s there to be nervous about.

"It’s just collecting a certificate, is it worth it?"

"It is worth it," Adam said with a serious face.

"Last night when you agreed to come with me today to collect the certificate, I was so nervous I couldn’t sleep all night, just fearful that after waking up, I’d find it was all a dream."

Elly: "..."

She wanted to laugh, but looking at Adam’s grave expression, she couldn’t, and even felt a pang of sympathy.

She even felt guiltier to admit to him that she didn’t remember agreeing last night to come today to collect the certificate at all; she probably agreed to it in a drowsy haze.

But since they were already there, and they had already agreed to remarry, she wasn’t so fussy as to insist on waiting a few more days to make some sort of psychological preparation before coming.

Hearing him say that he couldn’t sleep all night just because of a casual promise to collect the certificate, Elly’s heart couldn’t help but ache for him.

She stepped forward to hug him and said, "Don’t be nervous, I’ve already agreed to come and collect the certificate, I definitely won’t run away."

"Alright, I won’t be nervous."

Adam Jones’ emotions were still fluctuating wildly, saying he wasn’t nervous was actually an understatement—he was more anxious than a young person getting married for the first time.

But, he could clearly feel his wife’s sympathy for him, and the highly scheming CEO Jones made an effort to appear even more anxious.

"Then, do you want to sleep now? It’s still early for their working hours."

"No need, I’ll call them to open the door."

Elly: "..."

Seeing him pick up the phone, Elly pressed it back down, "Just wait patiently at this time, don’t try to be special."

Adam Jones now adhered to the principle of "listening to his wife’s words" in his daily life, so when Elly told him not to be special, he immediately agreed.

Seeing the shadows under his eyes tinged with a hint of blue and the red bloodshot in his eyes, Elly tugged at his hand with sympathy, "Get in the car and take a nap, your eyes are so red, it won’t look good for the wedding photo later."

Upon hearing this, and seeing there was still plenty of time, Adam agreed decisively, taking his wife back into the car to catch a few winks.

Not having slept all night, he was indeed tired. As soon as he sat in the car and closed his eyes, within seconds Elly felt him leaning on her shoulder, asleep.
