Adam Jones’s physical indicators had recovered very well, in fact, over the past month, he had almost been completely treated.
So when he woke up today, aside from the memory issues, there were no other major problems.
He sat on the hospital bed, surprisingly finding his mind full of Elly Campbell.
While he was in a coma, his mind was filled with the name Sophie Baker; however, upon waking, other than being curious about that blurry memory and Sophie Baker’s role in it, he could hardly muster any interest in her.
In contrast, even though Elly Campbell had done such unforgivable things to him, he still found himself hoping to see her.
Seeing her maintaining a stern face made him anxious, and he even had an intuition that if he misspoke, he could accidentally drive her away.
Especially when he thought of the cold look in her eyes as she looked at him, he felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.
But the moment he saw her, he couldn’t help but think of that fragment in his mind, that voice bent on ruining him.
Such contradictory feelings tormented him for an entire morning, and he waited an entire afternoon, but Elly Campbell never appeared.
This caused a trace of irritation to rise in Adam Jones’s heart without reason.
Elly Campbell showed up in his hospital room that evening.
Seeing her, Adam Jones’s eyes subtly lit up for a second, but the next second, he took on a stern face and said, "Where have you been? Aren’t you my wife? Have you left me hanging here all day?"
Listening to the faint complaint in his tone, Elly Campbell raised an eyebrow.
Even though she knew he was the victim, she still wanted to be "unreasonable" with this man. She snorted lightly and said,
"Don’t you only remember Sophie Baker? Won’t I be an eyesore here for you?"
Why did he feel that this woman was intentionally here to pick a fight with him?
Hmph! She really was a bad woman.
Adam Jones arrogantly hmphed in his mind but couldn’t resist glancing at her.
It was then that he noticed Elly Campbell holding a thermos, now walking toward the dining table set up in the ward, pouring out its contents.
"I spent the whole afternoon preparing this for you."
She turned back to look at Adam Jones and said, not too pleasantly,
"How about it, President Jones? Do you need me, a stranger, to serve it to you?"
Definitely a bad woman.
But looking at the steaming meal on the table, Adam Jones felt an indescribable sense of happiness.
He got out of bed on his own and sat down at the dining table, glancing at Elly Campbell and asked,
The good mood he felt dropped a notch instantly.
"If you ate something made by me, you might not only lose your memory, you could also lose your mind."
He looked at Elly Campbell with a somewhat scrutinizing gaze, and said,
"Why do I feel like you have a problem with me?"
Elly Campbell hummed softly and said,
"You don’t remember me, but you remember a woman I really dislike. Shouldn’t I have a problem with you?"
Although he didn’t know why he remembered Sophie Baker, or what Sophie Baker’s existence meant to him, he was now without memory, completely unaware of how to defend himself.
Moreover, this woman still had suspicions of plotting against him.
