Chapter 1235: 1235. Husbands are there to be cherished.
Her brows suddenly furrowed. “What did he co looking for you for?”
“Just the troubles that Campbell has been facing recently.”
Elly answered sowhat casually. As she spoke, she paused for a mont and then let out a cold laugh, saying,
“It seems my tactics have been too gentle lately, allowing him the leisure to co here and threaten .”
Adam had heard about the recent troubles at Campbell and knew that it was all Elly’s doing.
Since he had previously promised Elly that he wouldn’t interfere, he had been watching from the sidelines.
Now hearing that Jas Campbell had the nerve to show his face at the Jones Family and shalessly trouble his wife, a wave of displeasure swept through Adam.
He pulled Elly onto his lap, wrapped his arms around her waist, and buried his chin in the crook of her shoulder, whispering low,
“Wife.”
“Hm?”
Elly was sowhat perplexed by Adam’s sudden move.
“What is a husband for?”
Thinking her island lord was once again being playful with her, Elly smiled, looked up at him, and cooperatively responded,
“Of course, to be loved.”
Adam wasn’t expecting his wife to “spoil” him so. His face first registered surprise for half a second, then broke into a girlish sweetness, and he pursed his lips, feigning modesty with a light cough—
“Smooth talker.”
Elly raised an eyebrow. Could it be she had misunderstood the island lord’s intentions?
She cupped his cheeks with her hands, her gaze intent as she looked at him, “Don’t you like being a smooth talker?”
Adam leaned in and pecked lightly on her lips, “I like it.”
Elly humd twice, ready to slide off his lap, but found Adam instead tightened the grip around her waist and said,
“However, what I ant was another matter.”
“Hm? What matter?”
“Besides being there to be loved, a husband is also there to serve and support.”
“Serve and support?”
“Yes, serve and support.”
Adam continued to rest his chin in the crook of her shoulder, saying,
“Dealing with soone like Jas Campbell should be left to . Why would you bother doing it yourself? I don’t want you to waste your ti on such people.”
Hearing him say this, Elly couldn’t help but laugh.
She joked with him, “Aren’t you already managing the huge Jones Corp for ? Handling soone like Jas Campbell is a small matter; I should take care of it myself. Besides, I’m pretty free lately.”
“Very free?”
Adam narrowed his eyes, and the way he looked at Elly instantly changed.
Elly, not catching on, nodded in response to his question, “Yeah, very free. So I’m looking for sothing to do to pass the ti.”
Adam chuckled softly, his gaze on Elly growing increasingly intense.
The strength winding around her waist was also tightening bit by bit.
“Even to pass the ti, you should find sothing aningful to do.”
Feeling the strength around her waist, hearing the warmth in Adam’s voice, and seeing his gaze becoming hotter, deeper, Elly instantly grasped his aning.
“Like what?”
“Like doting on your husband.”
As soon as he finished speaking, all the sound was buried in the kiss that Adam unexpectedly placed on her.
While loving her husband was aningful, for Elly, treating Jas Campbell like a foolish mouse and playing with him like a toy was also quite an interesting thing to do.
