After much thought, she decided that she needed to inform her island owner so he could take precautions.
Even though Daisy Thompson was insignificant in front of Adam Jones, Elly Campbell knew that troublemakers could be difficult to handle.
History had seen many powerful figures meet their downfall over seemingly minor details.
There would always be times when the undeserving triumph.
Just like Elly Campbell had thought, Daisy Thompson and her stepdaughter showing up on the island at the same time was, in his view, no mere coincidence.
His eyes, cold and icy, slowly narrowed, and a dangerous aura began to seep out from their depths.
After a moment, Adam Jones spoke, "What does she want to do?"
Elly Campbell recalled the words Daisy Thompson had said at the hospital entrance but chose not to repeat them to Adam Jones.
That kind of view that upended all values disgusted her once, which was enough; she didn’t need to disgust her island owner again.
"I don’t know, she told me to deliver a message to you, saying she has something to talk to you about."
She lay on Adam’s chest, her eyes gleaming with a touch of gossip.
Adam Jones noticed the gleam of curiosity in his beloved wife’s eyes and chuckled, "Why are you so kind to even deliver her message?"
Given his wife’s prickly nature, someone had come to bully her, and she was already doing well not to strike back, let alone lend a hand.
Even though his wife hadn’t detailed exactly what Daisy Thompson had said to her at the hospital entrance, with that woman’s shameless audacity, it’s possible she said something to upset his wife.
Sure enough, upon hearing his words, Elly Campbell’s eyebrows lifted slightly.
She shifted closer to him and rubbed against him, "I didn’t want to pass on the message at first, but she wouldn’t tell me what it was, and I couldn’t help being curious."
Her fingers traced circles on Adam’s chest, her movements deliberately teasing, "Why don’t you go and listen, then come back and tell me about it?"
Adam’s Adam’s apple involuntarily moved as he grasped her restless hand and pressed it onto his body; his voice grew huskier—
"If you keep moving, don’t blame me for being impolite."
Elly Campbell had only been teasing him, but hearing his voice grow hoarse so quickly, she immediately stopped.
Adam Jones looked down at the woman in his arms, her eyes restless, and hummed lightly, "You really want me to meet that woman just because you’re curious?"
His spouse had hit the nail on the head, but Elly Campbell wasn’t ashamed, replying directly,
"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be in peril."
She looked at Adam Jones’s enchantingly handsome face, "I’m not sure about anything else, but one thing I’m certain of is that she wants to set you up with Miss Green."
When she had said this in front of Daisy Thompson before, the expression on her face was too obvious to ignore, even if she wanted to pretend she hadn’t seen it.
As soon as Elly Campbell said this, she felt a light smack on her bottom from Adam, "Are you looking for a spanking?"
Elly Campbell swatted away his hand that was on her bottom and looked at Adam Jones earnestly, "A shameless woman dares to try to push other women at my husband, and I shouldn’t be on guard?"
As she spoke, she squinted her eyes, a hint of danger surfacing within them.
"Or are you saying you want to go with the flow and just agree to it... ow!"
Her bottom received another spank from her island owner.
