Jones' residence.
In the bathroom, the sound of running water echoed; surrounded by warm white light, white steam filled the air, enveloping a faint silhouette.
"Click—"
The unlocked bathroom door was suddenly pushed open, startling Elly Campbell in the shower.
She quickly grabbed a towel nearby to wrap herself with, turned off the hot water, and as the steam slowly dissipated, the handsome face of the man at the door was revealed.
But on that face, a coldness was gathered, and those eyes, like frozen ice, now rested on her.
"Adam... Adam?"
Seeing the man before her, Elly's face couldn't hide her surprise, obviously not expecting him to return at this time.
Adam Jones closed the door and walked towards her with an icy expression, his usually reserved eyes now carrying a bone-chilling Cold Aura as he stepped closer to Elly.
"Adam..."
Words on the tip of her tongue, her body was then forcefully pulled by Adam, flung against the washstand behind her; her waist hit the marble countertop, causing her to wince in pain.
Her towel was ruthlessly pulled away by Adam, she suddenly looked at him, and her hands instinctively protected her front, "Adam, what are you doing?"
"What do you think I am doing?"
His sharp, thin lips twisted into a bloodthirsty, cruel smile.
His well-defined fingers unbuttoned his shirt; the falling buttons clinked on the ground, each sound echoing against Elly's being.
Adam's gaze was dark and terrifying, Elly had never seen him this ferocious before.
"Adam, let me go!"
Her wrist, gripped and immobilized by Adam's strength, caused more pain as his grip tightened, crinkling Elly's brow even further.
"What? Putting on an act again now that you are before me?"
Act?
Elly's heart was deeply wounded by this word spat out from Adam's mouth.
Three years, three years of marriage, was everything she ever did in Adam's eyes just an act?
"Complaining to grandma so eagerly, tonight I will grant your wish. After tonight, shut your mouth and behave!"
Elly had no idea what she did tonight to anger Adam, but every word he spoke was like countless knives plunging deep into her heart.
She struggled, trying to escape from underneath Adam, but he was like an enraged beast wanting to devour her, and no matter how hard she tried, she was powerless against him.
Just like her feelings for him, now and over the years.
A bitter smile tugged at the corner of her lips, and she ceased to struggle.
Feeling the compliance of the person beneath him, Adam's actions halted slightly in his fury, his gaze shifting to Elly.
The bitterness in her eyes suddenly pricked the deepest part of his heart, an area he never wished to be touched, and his good-looking eyebrows tightened at once.
Yet recalling what she had once done to him, the suppressed anger surged back.
