Yet the footsteps behind her drew closer to the bedside until Adam Jones's voice followed, "Get up and take your medicine."
Elly Campbell's body stiffened for a moment, and as she turned her head, she saw Adam Jones standing at the bedside, holding a glass of water in one hand and two white pills in the other.
There was a slight surprise in her eyes, for the Adam Jones in her memory was not a man of such tenderness, especially towards her.
Thus, when he had left without another word after asking if her head hurt earlier, she didn't think much of it, simply feeling that Adam Jones was naturally a cold person. She hadn't expected him to actually go and get her medicine.
Even though she was repulsed by Adam Jones, she wasn't about to joke with her own health to spite him. She sat up, took the water and pills he handed her, and swallowed them in one gulp. She glanced at him and thanked him.
