Elly Campbell stared at him intently, stunned for several seconds. He had left, hadn't he? How had he come back?

"Elly Campbell!"

His face was cold as he faced her, and she looked back at him expressionlessly. Neither yielded to the other.

Seeing Adam Jones's steps suddenly closing in one step toward her, Elly Campbell was startled by his movement. Reflexively, she stepped back, but missed her footing and fell backward.

Her face turned pale with fright; raising her hand, she instinctively reached to grab something, feeling only a tightening around her waist. The hand on her waist used just a little strength to pull her back.

Elly Campbell hadn't found her footing, and with that pull, she crashed right into Adam's embrace.
