Chapter 104: You still have a third option_1 Chapter 104: You still have a third option_1 Fine, it’s none of her business anyway, and all she wanted now was to get this divorce over with Adam Jones as cleanly as possible; to drag it on any longer would only complicate matters should he discover William Campbell’s existence.
Elly Campbell furrowed her brows and stood up to say her goodbyes. Just as she stepped out of the café and was about to head to the parking lot for her car, she saw Adam Jones walking straight towards her.
Elly Campbell furrowed her brows, her instinct was to flee and avoid Adam, but just as she turned to leave, she was stopped by his call, “Elly Campbell!”
Elly Campbell stopped in her tracks, her eyebrows knitting together impatiently, “President Jones, what a coincidence.”
“Not at all, I ca looking for you.”
Adam Jones glanced at the pair sitting side by side inside the café, then turned to Elly Campbell and asked, “Did you receive the court notice?”
“I did, and I have already expressed my wishes to Lawyer Hall. If President Jones has any questions, he should go ask your lawyer Hall.”
“You’re unwilling to diate?”
Just from Elly Campbell’s resolute attitude, he could guess her intentions.
“Of course, I’ve never thought about wasting that kind of ti.”
Elly Campbell’s expression was especially cold; to Adam, it seed she didn’t even want to say one extra word to him.
This involuntary reminder of the incident from eight years ago made him want to confront her, but each ti his words reached the tip of his tongue, upon eting her indifferent gaze, he felt that asking would only be humiliating himself.
Seeing his expression grow dark, as if he had sothing to say but was forcibly holding it back, Elly Campbell felt incredibly irritated.
“Adam, I really don’t understand you. Eight years ago, you called off our engagent, seven years ago, I set aside my dignity to beg you to marry , you neglected for three years, I obediently signed the divorce papers and left. Now, you’re stubbornly dragging your feet and refusing to divorce, what do you really want??”
Eight years ago? She had the nerve to bring up what happened eight years ago?
Adam Jones chuckled out of anger, his eyes growing colder, “Elly Campbell, you rember our engagent, but why don’t you rember the awful things you did eight years ago!”
“Ha!”
Elly Campbell laughed out of exasperation, her voice involuntarily rising, “What awful things have I done? The worst thing I, Elly Campbell, ever did was to exhaust all efforts to marry you after you proposed to call off the engagent, laying my dignity at your feet for you to trample!!”
As she spoke, her emotions beca more agitated, her gaze growing increasingly cold as she looked at Adam Jones, the sarcastic smile in her eyes magnifying—
“So I deserve it; I accept it. Who asked to be shaless? After you hit on the left cheek, I happily reached out my right cheek for you to hit. I deserve it!”
The intense anger Adam Jones initially felt was dampened by Elly Campbell’s words. It seed like he subconsciously caught on to sothing, but he didn’t have a chance to grasp it before being interrupted by her words.
“Adam, you now have two options: one, agree to the divorce and sign the papers cleanly; two, go through a court trial and wait for the judgnt. Stop playing any of these deep, unchanging love gas with ; I find it disgusting.”
The coldness in Elly Campbell’s eyes took Adam Jones by surprise and threw his heart into chaos. As she turned to leave, he quickly raised his arm to block her path.
“What if I choose neither of those options?”
His deep eyes narrowed, firmly eting Elly Campbell’s as he asked.
“Of course, you also have a third option,” she said.
