Chapter 553: 553. President Jones takes Lynn Clark ho_1 Chapter 553: 553. President Jones takes Lynn Clark ho_1 “Don’t move around, just rest, and let your injury heal.”
“Thank you, Mr. Jones, Mrs. Jones. I’m alright, as long as William is fine, that’s good enough for .”
For so reason, ever since Elly Campbell found out about Lynn Clark’s ulterior motives, she couldn’t help but overthink every word Lynn said.
Take Lynn’s words just now, for example.
From beginning to end, Adam Jones hadn’t uttered a word, but when Lynn expressed her thanks, she always included Adam. Even when she ntioned William, Elly felt it was intentional.
She wondered if she was overthinking it.
Elly didn’t voice these thoughts and said to Lynn, “You just focus on William, we won’t let you down, you rest assured.”
“Thank you, Mr. Jones, Mrs. Jones.”
Elly: “…”
Could she thank her without always bringing Adam into it?
For no reason, Elly felt annoyed, and when she looked at Lynn, she saw her gaze resting on Adam, biting her lower lip softly, another hand covering her injured arm, with slightly furrowed brows, looking very pitiful.
In the anti, Adam left to take a call, and Lynn’s affected deanor… he simply didn’t notice it at all.
Looking at Lynn’s subtly frustrated expression, Elly shook her head inwardly.
“Did the doctor say you need to be hospitalized?”
Upon hearing Elly’s voice, Lynn hurriedly drew back her gaze and said, “No, I can go straight ho, thank you, Madam.”
“Then we should take you ho.”
When Elly said that, Lynn’s heart leaped with joy. Just then Adam returned, Lynn imdiately hid her happiness, shook her head, and said:
“Thank you, Madam, but there’s no need to trouble yourselves, I can take the bus ho.”
“How can that be? You saved my son.”
It was Adam, who had just finished his phone call, who spoke, and upon hearing his words, Elly cast a thoughtful glance at him.
Lynn was secretly pleased, “How could I impose, I wouldn’t want to trouble Mr. Jones.”
Lynn hastily waved her hand, “Ouch~”
She furrowed her brow and bit her lip tightly again, tears brimming in her eyes. Elly, watching Lynn’s behavior, grew more irritable the longer she watched and finally averted her gaze.
“It’s no trouble, it’s the least we can do.”
Adam looked at her, his lips curving, then turned to Elly and said, “You take William ho first, I’ll be right back.”
Elly gave Adam a aningful look, didn’t ask much, just nodded in agreent, “Okay.”
Lynn, seeing that Adam intended to send her ho alone, felt an undercurrent of excitent, but she kept a restrained appearance, not making another sound.
After Elly and her son left, Adam looked at Lynn with a bland tone, “Let’s go.”
“Thank you, Mr. Jones.”
Her voice was soft and tender, enticingly so, making one want to hear it again.
But Adam did not even spare her a glance as he turned and walked out of the hospital, showing no intent to wait for Lynn.
Lynn bit her lip and her eyes darkened slightly, a touch of disappointnt surfacing.
Seeing that Adam had no intention of waiting, Lynn dropped the act and quickly picked up her pace to follow.
But after all, her legs were not as long as Adam’s; even when she tried to catch up, she couldn’t walk side by side with him and was soon left behind.
