Chapter 482: 482. Playing gas with her_1 Chapter 482: 482. Playing gas with her_1 Adam Jones’s low voice ca by her ear, “If it hurts, lean on .”
“I’m fine, don’t be so dramatic.”
President Jones, accused of being dramatic by his wife, wore a look of indifference, yet his hand remained around Elly Campbell’s shoulder without loosening its grip.
Elly wasn’t about to make a fuss at this ti, so she simply let him keep his arm around her.
Although the two hadn’t lived together for long, their understanding of each other was impeccable. In no ti at all, they had left the staff from the other groups far behind.
Despite Elly’s effort to bear the severe pain from her knee, her body’s instinctive reactions were quite obvious. Adam clearly felt she was struggling to walk, her movents sowhat sluggish.
When they arrived beside William Campbell, Adam suddenly squatted down and untied the rope that was bound around his and Elly’s feet.
Then he lifted William onto his back. Elly, puzzled by his actions, said, “The competition isn’t over yet, you…”
She had only spoken half a sentence when, in the next second, Adam scooped her up in a horizontal carry.
Elly, startled by his sudden move, let out a cry of alarm and instinctively hooked her arms around Adam’s neck, saying indignantly, “What are you doing?”
“Your leg hurts, and so does my heart.”
After dropping this line, he turned back to William on his back and instructed, “Son, hold on to daddy tightly.”
“Okay.”
William, not quite understanding the rules of the ga, simply thought his daddy was very powerful, bearing him on his back while holding mommy in his arms.
“Go daddy! Go daddy!”
William’s chubby hands clutched tightly onto his daddy’s shoulders, his eyes lighting up with delight as he stared at his daddy carrying mommy at breakneck speed toward the finish line.
Elly was initially stunned by Adam’s response to her earlier statent, then, hearing the astonished and encouraging shouts around them, she realized very clearly that her face had been completely lost by Adam, the sly man, on this day, with no hope of reclaiming it.
Seeing her son’s joyous leap on Adam’s back, she decided to just let go, suppressing the urge to kill Adam, and tightly gripping his neck as he carried her back to the starting point.
After Adam set her down, Elly rembered he had picked her up several tis today and thought of the sutured wound on his arm, her brow furrowing with concern.
“Do you not care about your hand, always picking up like this?”
Adam, taken aback by Elly’s sudden question, soon realized she was worried about the wound on his arm and felt a surge of happiness.
“Seeing how concerned you are about , I don’t feel the pain at all.”
In fact, he had indeed forgotten about the injury on his arm until his wife’s reminder, and only then did he start to feel the throbbing pain in his arm.
His face didn’t show it, as he simply looked at Elly with a smile in his eyes, and his words instantly made Elly’s expression freeze, as she said, “I just don’t want you to bla later.”
Adam watched Elly with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, but remained silent.
His wife’s insincere deanor was adorable, and he thought…
As he thought this, he moved a little closer to her in a rather roguish manner, chuckling softly, “If losing an arm ans I can depend on you, I’ll cut it off as soon as we get ho.”
Elly: “…”
Seeing this man, shaless to the point of utterly abandoning all pretense, Elly glared at him a few tis, but in the end, his brazenness made her laugh despite herself.
