BuzzNovelChapter 1465: 1465. He is a jealous person.
Elly Campbell's brow furrowed slightly, her eyes tinged with a hint of irritation.
After a moment, just when Ethan White thought Elly wouldn't respond, she spoke—
“What exactly happened between you and Adam Jones?”
Ethan's expression froze for a moment, yet he didn’t directly answer Elly’s question. Instead, he said:
“So, you still think | approached you with ulterior motives rather than genuinely liking you, don’t you?”
Elly remained silent, clearly affirming Ethan's assumption.
Ethan chuckled faintly, raising his hand slightly as though intending to ruffle her hair, but she avoided him deftly.
His hand hung awkwardly in mid-air for a moment before he quietly withdrew it, letting out a derisive laugh:
“And here you said you weren't naive.”
The huskiness in his tone carried a trace of disappointment and grievance.
The murmured complaint, tinged with sorrow, made Elly’s brows knit even tighter.
“Regardless of your reasons for saying these things, whether sincere or harboring ulterior motives, | think | need
to make one thing clear to you.”
With a serious expression, Elly met his gaze, while the faint smile lingering at the corner of Ethan's lips began to
fade little by little as she finished speaking.
“Alright, speak.”

“I am deeply grateful for the two times you saved my life, but | must ask you to respect me. | really dislike
hearing the remarks you make to disrupt the feelings between my husband and me. | have my own family, and |
deeply love my husband, Adam. So regardless of whether your words are heartfelt or merely a joke, | don’t want
to hear them anymore. Even if | owe you my life, it doesn’t mean I'm willing to tolerate your offensive
comments.”
Ethan silently looked at Elly, his expression a complex mix of amusement and bitterness.
After finishing her words and seeing Ethan remain silent, Elly’s lips pressed into a tight line.
She didn’t want to delve into what Ethan was thinking at this moment.
In truth, she resembled Adam in sways, an inherently aloof person.
Once she gave her feelings to someone, she would never harbor any extras for anyone else.
No matter how much someone showed they cared for her or even claimed to love her, she wouldn't develop
other thoughts.
At this moment, Ethan seemed genuinely affected by her words. His face showed traces of hurt that couldn't be
hidden.
But she wouldn't soften her stance because of that.
She had a vague suspicion that Ethan might not be joking, but rather truly—
If it were true, then even more so she couldn't afford to give Ethan any expectations. Unable to respond, why
prolong his pain?
“I've said what | needed to say. | hope you won't say anything in front of Adam Jones that might lead to a
misunderstanding anymore.”
She paused briefly and added:
“He’s a very jealous man, and once he gets jealous, he’s hard to placate.”
Ethan continued to gaze at her
quietly. Though her words gegmed to

At last, Ethan smiled, nodded slightly at her, and said, “It's my lack of consideration. | apologize; it won't happen
