At that moment, when he realized it was just a dream, the sharpness in his eyes had already faded away.
Staring at Elly Campbell's face for a long time, he finally spoke up and asked directly,
"Have you ever plotted against me before?"
Upon hearing his words, Elly Campbell's expression suddenly darkened, and she looked at him with cold eyes, asking,
"I've manipulated you countless times, which one are you referring to?"
Adam Jones: "..."
He had simply wanted to ask, with no other implications.
Look at that petulant tone.
It seems that he had indeed spoiled her too much in the past, nurture her temper to be so foul.
"Go on then," he urged.
Seeing that he remained silent, Elly Campbell, with a frosty face, asked again.
Adam Jones saw her temper flare up and gently poked her temple with his finger, "You little scoundrel. I just asked a question, look at that nasty temper of yours!"
This tone carried a hint of an indulgent father's helpless affection for his daughter.
