CHAPTER 1678: 1678. ELLY CAMPBELL, HAVE YOU EVER CARED ABOUT ME?

Adam Jones stared intently at her face, the smile on his own had already vanished.

Even though Elly Campbell hadn’t spoken yet, he could guess Leo Hall’s conditions, afraid they were difficult to agree to.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t look at him with words unspoken, unable to say it.

Could these conditions be related to him?

"Leo Hall wants me."

The next moment, he saw Elly Campbell almost mustering all her courage to say those words to him.

Adam Jones’s expression instantly froze, a hint of coldness in his eyes, "Wants you? What do you mean? What does he want from you?"

Adam Jones’s gaze grew increasingly sharp, his voice colder with each word, as if layered with ice, piercing directly to Elly Campbell’s heart.

"He didn’t say what he wanted me to do. Anyway... anyway, if I agree to his condition, he’ll help Helen Melendy with the antidote."

She didn’t dare to look directly into Adam Jones’s eyes, only lowered her gaze, her voice growing quieter, "Whatever he wants me to do, as long as he can provide the antidote for Helen..."

Perhaps, Leo Hall wanted to use her as a live experimental subject.

Since Chloe Turner used that drug on her, who knows what her future holds. It’s better to exchange herself for Helen’s legs.

As long as she can stand, the guilt she feels toward her will lessen.

Adam Jones quietly listened to her finish speaking, remained silent for a long time, then said coldly:

"You agreed?"

Elly Campbell wanted to say she hadn’t agreed. At that moment, the matter with the pneumonia virus diverted her attention.

Now, facing Adam Jones’s deep and stern gaze, she dryly said, "Not yet."

Adam Jones’s expression didn’t ease because of this, still looking at her coldly with a mocking smile:

"So, you’re still planning to agree, aren’t you?"

Elly Campbell opened her mouth but couldn’t speak, her eyes avoiding Adam Jones.

After a long time, she finally said, "He can make Helen stand."

"Ha!"

Adam Jones laughed, but there was no warmth in his eyes, he even felt there was no need to be angry.

"He can make Helen Melendy stand, so you’re planning to abandon your husband and child and leave with him?"

His voice was not loud, but every word was filled with a resounding accusation, hammering down onto Elly Campbell’s heart.

Yet Elly Campbell knew, she had no right to defend herself.

In this matter, no matter whom she chooses, she’s destined to wrong the other.

Adam Jones saw she didn’t even argue back, knowing she had already made a choice.

She chose to let Helen Melendy stand rather than abandon him and their two sons.

Adam Jones’s lips curled with a sarcastic smile, looking at her somewhat pale face, suppressing the warmth in his eyes, his heart aching.

A long time passed before he heard his own hoarse voice say, "Elly..."

Elly Campbell’s heart suddenly tightened, as if stabbed fiercely, the pain almost suffocating her.

Since the two began anew, he hadn’t addressed her by her full name like this.

She knew, at this moment, Adam Jones was most certainly disappointed and pained by her.

But now Helen has a chance to stand, can she just give up on that?

Even if she gives up, she doesn’t know if the poison in her can be cured, how long she can stay by her husband and sons?

She raised her tearful eyes to look at Adam Jones, seeing his deep gaze on her, his eyes dark and obscure, his eyes faintly red.

"If Leo Hall wants you to die for Helen Melendy to stand, would you be willing to do it too?"
