Listening to Adam Jones's words, she couldn't help but think of his reaction when he returned after driving Lynn Clark home that day.
He was just as jittery as he is now, asking her if she thought he was meddling too much, asking if her lack of jealousy over Lynn Clark meant she didn't care about him.
So, had he really been thinking this way all along?
With that thought in mind, a twinge of heartache faintly stirred in Elly Campbell's heart.
Her hand, which had been hanging by her side, slowly lifted and wrapped around his waist, her voice low as she said, "Why..."
Adam Jones's body tensed for a moment.
Elly continued to ask, "Why would you think that? We... We're getting remarried, aren't we? How could you think I... I wouldn't want you?"
She had never imagined that Adam Jones would harbor such insecurity.
The question from Elly left Adam Jones stiff for a moment.
