Bab 531: 531. Birth Control Pill_1

Before Elly Campbell could refuse, he buried his chin in the hollow of her shoulder and muttered, "Just take it as a psychological comfort to me, I promise I won't touch you."

"Then I'll take a step back. You take the master bedroom, and I'll sleep on the couch."

Adam Jones being so agreeable was rather unexpected for Elly.

Why wasn't he being pushy?
