Chapter 1570: 1570. Do things without leaving any handle
Back when Gabriel Stevenson injured Helen, she suspected Clarke Ainley, but in the middle of the investigation, many clues went cold.
The reason these clues went cold was because William Hall intervened.
Additionally, with William Hall sending people to the hospital to kill Helen Melendy, naturally, Elly Campbell turned her investigation towards him.
And Clarke Ainley’s actions during Helen Melendy’s coma were, just like an elegant green tea, other than trying to happen upon Harry Hall at the hospital, hoping for a relationship to bloom from long interactions, there was nothing else she found out.
Also, with her security staff at the hospital watching closely, neither Clarke Ainley nor her people had any chance to get close to Helen Melendy, which allowed Elly Campbell to relax.
It was only after Director Montgomery told her that Helen Melendy had been poisoned for over half a year that she began to reinvestigate Clarke Ainley.
Either Clarke Ainley’s power was too strong, or she herself was too clever, leaving no traces of her actions; up until now, she hadn’t found any clues linking Clarke Ainley to the poisoning.
As for others...
The families of those other girls were not as influential as the Ainley Clan, making them easier to investigate.
But time and again, there was nothing suspicious.
Now, Nathan Linstad tells her that the woman who ordered him to poison Helen had a San Francisco accent.
Elly Campbell looked at the person in front of her, who understood and turned to leave.
At this moment, only Elly Campbell and Adam Jones were left in the study.
Adam Jones watched her staring blankly at the floor, feeling both helpless and heartbroken, he said:
"Don’t think too much, and don’t put too much pressure on yourself."
He held Elly Campbell’s hand and said seriously:
"I’ll go to Germany in a couple of days, okay?"
Elly Campbell was eager for Helen Melendy to get better, naturally hoping that Adam Jones would immediately bring back the miracle drug to cure Helen Melendy.
Now hearing Adam Jones say he was going to Germany, she naturally wouldn’t refuse.
Seeing the worry in his eyes, she thought of how she had made him worry time and again, and felt a sense of guilt welling up inside.
Resting her face against Adam Jones’s chest, she wrapped her hands tightly around his waist, whispering:
"I’m sorry for always causing you trouble."
As the words left her mouth, she saw Adam Jones frown and sternly say:
"What’s this talk about causing trouble between us?"
He feigned displeasure as he looked at her and said:
"No matter what you do, you must always remember you are Mrs. Jones, and any trouble you encounter, you should come to me for, without saying things like thank you or sorry."
He pulled her into his embrace, softening his voice, "I hope for you to be independent, yet also need me, allowing me to fulfill my role as your husband. I want to give you support and rely on, and this is not to gain your thank yous, but to see you happy and joyful."
Whenever he said these words to Elly Campbell, it was always with deep affection.
She wasn’t one to seek sweet talk, but listening to his sincere and plain confession warmed her heart and eyes, filling her with a sense of stability.
At this moment, back at the hospital.
Harry Hall silently watched as Helen Melendy displayed a determined look, his heart slowly sinking.
He said nothing, crouching in front of Helen’s wheelchair, locking eyes with her.
The corners of his lips forced into a smile, but it slowly faded as he couldn’t hold it.
Helen Melendy couldn’t stand to see him like this, as if she had destroyed her idol whom she admired and yearned for.
