Why bother going to such trouble for himself.
Thinking this, he started to laugh.
His clear eyes curved into a crescent moon, the sa clean and pure young man that Elly Campbell had t before, and he said:
"I was just kidding, I’m willing to save my sister-in-law without expecting anything in return."
Adam Jones’ smiling face, upon hearing these ambiguous words, darkened.
Looking at the guileless expression on Leo Hall’s face, Adam sneered:
"Since you’re not looking for a reward, then we won’t be polite."
After saying this, in the astonished gaze of Leo Hall, he left with Elly Campbell.
As the two disappeared from sight, the obedient smile on Leo Hall’s lips had faded, a dazzling light flickering in his eyes, and then he seed lost in thought.
Soon after, whatever it was that he thought of made his eyes gleam with amused interest, and he walked towards the direction of the hospital building.
The elevator stopped on the floor where Helen lendy was staying, guarded by three towering bodyguards.
This floor had been cleared out by Harry Hall for Helen lendy’s use, and there were no other patients besides her.
As Leo Hall approached, the bodyguards looked at him warily.
Even if the young man appeared innocent and harmless, they didn’t let their guard down at all.
All of them had been through life and death situations, seen all sorts of people, witnessed every kind of disguise, and would not take this harmless-looking face for granted.
When Leo Hall was three or four ters away from Helen’s room, a bodyguard stopped him.
"Who are you looking for?"
Leo Hall stood before them; his height of 1.85 ters was not at an advantage compared to these bodyguards averaging 1.90 ters.
He didn’t try to force his way in but just kept his hands in his pockets, slightly tilted his head up, and looked at the few guards eyeing him with hostility. With a nod towards the direction of the ward, he said:
"The person lying in there is my sister-in-law."
The bodyguards didn’t care whether he was telling the truth; the lady had instructed them repeatedly that unless it was Mr. Hall or the Jones couple, they were not to let anyone else in.
So even if the person inside was his real sister, the bodyguards wouldn’t let him in.
"Sorry, except for President Jones and his wife and Mr. Hall, no one else can visit the patient alone."
Leo Hall seed surprised by the bodyguard’s response, "Is this an order from my brother?"
Seeing that he wasn’t trying to burst in and his attitude was relatively mild, the bodyguard didn’t ignore his question and replied:
"It’s an order from our lady. If you want to visit Miss lendy, you should co with your brother next ti."
In any case, they had no intention of letting anyone in.
After hearing this, Leo Hall wasn’t angry but instead raised his eyebrows with interest.
That woman Elly Campbell really thought of everything.
Since that’s the case, he wouldn’t bother any further.
Before leaving, he looked at the bodyguards and said with a beaming smile:
"Keep a close watch on my sister-in-law. It would be big trouble for you if she got into any accident through carelessness."
The statent sounded like a warning, but also a reminder.
The leading bodyguard frowned slightly as Leo Hall turned and walked away after saying those words.
After a mont, he said to soone nearby, "Call the lady."
