Chapter 226: 226. Beat her to death_1 Chapter 226: 226. Beat her to death_1 However, at this critical mont, the scandal of stealing soone else’s patent erged, which definitely affects the company’s listing.
She was determined to gain the ability to compete with Adam Jones so she could win back William’s custody, but now…
Helen lendy furrowed her brows and cast a glance at Adam Jones, tinged with a hint of sarcasm, “President Jones must be thrilled now, right? Elly has run into major trouble, and it will be even harder for her to fight you for William in the future.”
Adam Jones knew he couldn’t keep Brayman’s matter a secret from Elly Campbell, so from the beginning, he had no intention of hiding it from her. Although the current trouble wasn’t minor, it was also not insurmountable, and he was ready to help Elly resolve it without much difficulty.
What bothered him, though, was that what Helen lendy was saying now was probably what Elly was thinking.
A sense of regret for shooting himself in the foot suddenly filled his heart.
“It’s none of your business.”
Though he felt so regret, he wasn’t going to waste too many words explaining himself to an insignificant woman.
Helen lendy rolled her eyes at him. Of course, she wouldn’t argue with such a person, to avoid causing trouble for her friend Elly.
But Lily Jones by her side started creating trouble again, hearing Helen’s words, she sneered, “That’s funny, what do you an Elly and my brother are fighting over William? William was originally a child of the Jones Family, and custody has now been granted to my brother; what does Elly have to do with that?”
She pursed her lips, “With a person like Elly, my nephew would only be taught badly by her. Luckily, my brother fought to get custody back.”
As she spoke, she looked excitedly at Adam Jones, seemingly having completely forgotten the warning Adam had given her earlier, saying, “Brother, when are you going to bring William back? Elly has such a terrible character; William shouldn’t stay with her for too long. Once you and Sophie are married, let Sophie raise William. Sophie is so kind, she will surely bring William up well, and then…”
“Lily Jones!”
Before Lily Jones could finish speaking, Elly Campbell’s voice, cold enough to chill bones, accompanied by a roar of terrifying anger, suddenly rang out.
Imdiately afterward, Lily Jones felt a blur before her eyes as a figure approached her, and heard a “slap―” as a slap landed on her face without the slightest bit of strength held back.
Lily Jones was stunned by the sudden slap, while Adam Jones slightly furrowed his brows.
Not because of the slap Elly had given Lily, but because he could clearly sense that Elly had completely lost control of her emotions because of Lily’s previous remarks.
It took Lily Jones a few seconds to recover, and her face, now marked by five finger prints, instantly twisted with rage, “Elly Campbell, you bitch, you actually hit !”
She scread and raised her hand to slap Elly’s face, but her movents weren’t as fast as Elly’s, nor was her strength as great.
The hand that hadn’t yet co down was seized by Elly, rendering it immobile, “Let go of , Elly!”
“Lily Jones, since when is my son’s future sothing for you to arrange?”
Elly’s face was so cold it seed she could spit out a layer of ice, and the strength in her grip increased due to her anger, causing Lily Jones to cry out in pain and look toward Adam Jones for rescue, “Brother, pull Elly off …”
anwhile, Helen lendy imdiately reached into her bag and grabbed her self-defense spray, ready to attack the mont Adam Jones dared to lay a hand on Elly; she wouldn’t hesitate to spray it right into the bastard’s eyes.
