He didn't lie down on the bed; instead, he drew her body into his arms and asked with lowered eyes, "What's the matter? Why aren't you continuing to be fierce with me? Weren't you going to settle accounts with me later?"
Elly Campbell, who had originally been feeling guilty and blaming herself for not taking Adam Jones's matter seriously enough, couldn't help laughing when she heard his words.
Looking up at him from his arms, she said, "You really have a strange preference, do you only get happy when someone is fierce with you?"
Adam Jones replied with a gentle smile and raised his hand to ruffle her hair, saying, "I don't enjoy others being fierce with me, I only like it when my wife is fierce with me."
Elly originally intended to tease him further, but upon hearing his reply, her eyes suddenly stung, and then her eyes reddened.
Adam had been observing her expression all along, so as soon as her eyes reddened, he noticed immediately, and anxiety surged within him.
