<h4>Chapter 701: 701. stic Brotherly Love_1</h4>
Even though deep down she still hoped that she could be with Harry Hall, she respected Helen’s wishes even more.
"Then you take a good rest; I’ll be right back."
"Go, go."
She waved her hand indifferently, sending Elly Campbell and her husband on their way.
As she watched the two of them walking away, the smile at the corner of Helen Melendy’s mouth finally softly faded.
Adam Jones was right; she was afraid to face Harry. The feeling of guilt that emanated from the depths of her heart was something she herself couldn’t exin.
She repeatedly said she hadn’t done anything to wrong Harry, but the moment their eyes met and she saw the disappointment and heartache swirling in his, her whole heart became a mess.
There weren’t many people fishing on Lake Ind at that time; mostcked the patience. After Adam went to pick up Elly, only Harry was left on the ind.
"I can sense that Helen doesn’t want to have anything to do with Harry anymore. I won’t do anything to force her again," Elly said to Adam as they boarded the small boat docked by the shore.
She knew that from Adam’s perspective, naturally, he wanted Harry to be happy; she wished the same for Helen.
The husband and wife had different standpoints, but she didn’t want this to affect her rtionship with Adam.
Hearing her say this, Adam looked down and nced at her, seeing the mncholy flowing in her eyes and guessing what she was thinking.
He reached out and put his arm around her shoulder, increased his strength, and said solemnly,
"Then let’s not meddle in their affairs."
He leaned down and kissed Elly on the lips, saying, "Compared to my brother, I’d hate to see my wife unhappy, so, as for brotherhood, to hell with it."
Elly was stunned by Adam’s words, but thenughed out loud and gently pinched his cheek.
"You’re so disloyal."
"Loyalty? I only know that making my wife happy is what’s most important."
At this moment, Harry Hall, who was fishing all alone on Lake Ind, had no idea that he had just been abandoned by a heartless, disloyal "stic" brother.
At this moment, while he was fishing, his attention was still on Helen Melendy.
When he saw Dous Turnbaugh arguing with Elly, all he could think about was what if Helen got hurt because of Dous.
Even though a certain husband eager to intervene had already left, Harry’s heart couldn’t let go.
He even wished he could immediately follow and personally bring her back; only then would he feel at ease.
But, in the end, he repressed the impulse, forcing himself not to interfere.
If that woman emphasized breaking up with him time and time again, why should he keep humiliating himself by chasing after her?
He had a heart, and his heart could ache, get injured. Why should it be so worthless, to offer it to be trampled just because she didn’t care for it?
So, he forced himself to endure time and time again.
Seeing her leave safely, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Seeing that she didn’t apany Elly and her husband, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of loss.
Staring at the calm surface of theke, Harry Hall tugged at the corner of his mouth with self-mockery. Indeed, he was masochistic.
Not seeing here along actually made him feel disappointed.
It was unlike that woman; she was so free and easy about breaking up—when it was over, it was truly over.
In his eyes, a faint trace of self-mockery appeared, and his gaze rested on the seemingly cid surface of theke.
