Chapter 926: 926. Don’t trust people easily.

The hospital room was spacious, measuring over a hundred square meters, so even when Lily Bankston entered pushing a wheelchair, it didn’t seem cramped at all.

"How are you feeling? Any better? Have you remembered anyone yet?"

Since Elly Campbell was suspicious of Lily Bankston, she took the chance when Bankston couldn’t see her to discreetly scrutinize her, trying to detect something unusual in her facial expressions.

But throughout it all, Bankston maintained the image of a mother deeply caring for Adam Jones.

It wasn’t that Campbell was overly suspicious; rather, it was that Bankston’s acting was too convincing, so flawless that it left no signs of deceit.

Adam Jones looked at Lily Bankston, and unlike the strange and cold yet strangely familiar feeling he had towards Sophie Baker, he truly felt closeness and respect for Aunt Lily.

When Lily Bankston asked this, he shook his head and sighed heavily, admitting, "No."

As he spoke, his gaze unintentionally drifted towards Elly Campbell, as if afraid that his response would upset or disappoint her, bringing a subtle unease to his heart.

At that moment, Campbell was solely focused on examining Lily Bankston and did not expect Adam Jones, who was conversing with Bankston, to suddenly look her way. Her suspicious expression towards Bankston was fully caught by Jones.

Elly Campbell was momentarily startled, and so was Adam Jones.

Because he definitely saw Campbell’s doubtful eyes directed at Bankston just then.

She... was suspecting Aunt Lily?

Adam Jones’s brow subtly furrowed, his feelings indescribable.

He didn’t know why he only remembered Sophie Baker and Aunt Lily. While he felt nothing special towards Baker, Aunt Lily was different – she felt familiar and gave him a sense of security.

It was like a child who has suddenly become lost and feels utterly helpless, and then an adult appears promising to protect them, to take them home, restoring all their sense of security.

And now, the feeling that Lily Bankston gave him was similar to that protective adult promising to take him home.

As for Elly Campbell...

He felt extremely unfamiliar with her; yet, strangely, despite knowing nothing about this woman, he felt she was the closest to him and the least likely to be doubted.

Thus, seeing her eyeing Aunt Lily with such a look made his feelings quite complex.

After holding eye contact with Elly Campbell for two seconds, he averted his gaze and told Lily Bankston,

"Maybe I’ll remember in a while. Don’t worry about me; just focus on recovering from your injury."

Lily Bankston nodded, then sighed,

"It’s just that being unable to remember anything is inconvenient for daily life. It’s okay if it’s just us familiar people around, but what if a villain appears, speaks nonsense, and deceives you? How would you know what’s true and what’s false? What would we do then?"

Adam Jones’s expression revealed a trace of bewilderment; he felt there was an underlying message in Lily Bankston’s words.

And Elly Campbell, already harboring doubts about Lily Bankston, naturally perked up even more at these implications, casting a faint glance over Bankston.

Then, he saw Adam Jones chuckle, "Is Aunt Lily worried that some swindler will take advantage of my memory loss to claim I owe them millions?"

Lily Bankston was momentarily taken aback, then chuckled softly, waving her hand, "I mentioned it off the cuff. You’ve only lost your memory, not your mind. You’re not devoid of the basic ability to judge."
