Chapter 1136: 1136. Is that the Lily Bankston we know?
“Yes.”
Cam Green panicked and quickly rushed forward to stop Robert Green, then turned toward Adam Jones, his expression frantic as he said,
“President Jones, I’ve already confessed, why are you still calling the police?”
Adam Jones glanced at him coldly and said,
“Cam Green, I gave you one chance, but you’ve just wasted it.”
He looked at Robert Green, his gaze sharp, “Call the police.”
“Yes.”
Robert Green shook off Cam Green’s hand and began to dial 110.
“President Jones! Please give one more chance, I’ve already confessed honestly this ti.”
Cam Green clutched at Robert Green as he dialed, shouting toward Adam Jones’s retreating back.
Adam Jones ignored him and continued walking upstairs, his steps unwavering.
Cam Green had thought there was still room for negotiation, but seeing Adam Jones’s resolute deanor, he knew his cunning act had angered Adam Jones.
“President Jones! President Jones!”
Cam tried to follow him but was pinned to the ground by two security guards.
As Adam Jones and his wife were about to disappear around the corner, Cam blurted out, “It’s Professor Bankston.”
Finally, Adam Jones’s steps halted, and he turned to look at Cam, feigning ignorance,
“Professor Bankston?”
Cam, forehead beaded with cold sweat, nodded, “Lily Bankston, Professor Bankston.”
He knew she was close to Adam Jones, and Cam worried that revealing this wouldn’t be believed by Adam Jones.
But he saw no shock or even a hint of surprise on his face, as if he had already guessed it was Lily Bankston.
That explained his mory loss, including his recent suspicious behavior.
It was Adam Jones playing a part for those behind the scenes, and he, for his own greed, had so easily exposed himself to Adam Jones.
“It really is her.”
Elly Campbell, standing beside Adam Jones, chuckled softly, her face showing clear mockery.
Lily Jones was completely taken aback.
“Lily Bankston?”
She looked at Adam Jones in disbelief, “The Lily Bankston we know?”
Adam Jones nodded solemnly, unmistakably troubled inside.
Lily Jones was entirely shocked.
Adam Jones might have been sowhat prepared, but she was utterly clueless.
Earlier, she had learned from Robert Green about the kidnapping of her brother nine years ago and the harrowing secret involving Sophie saving him.
And now, she discovered that the person orchestrating it all was Lily Bankston.
This woman, who had replaced their mother during their childhood, had been scheming against her brother so early on?
Or maybe even earlier?
When Adam Jones had amnesia, his feelings for Lily Bankston were based only on a fuzzy recollection in his mind coupled with an instinctual closeness.
But this closeness, in his mory loss, didn’t intensify his feelings for Lily Bankston excessively.
That was how he suspected her from re traces.
As Jas Grant helped him with hypnosis, his mories gradually returned, and his feelings for Lily Bankston grew stronger.
Similarly, thinking about her calculating against him, the initial sadness was no less than what Lily Jones felt now.
But because he had been ntally prepared, he now appeared very calm.
He ca back downstairs and returned to sit in front of the sofa, “Speak.”
