Chapter 319: 319. The Neglected Young Wife_1 Chapter 319: 319. The Neglected Young Wife_1 Hearing the hint of dissatisfaction in his voice, Elly Campbell looked at him with so surprise before smiling and saying:
“Of course, I didn’t co to Boston to be your assistant.”
Adam Jones’s gaze darkened, and although Elly Campbell was stating the fact, he couldn’t feel happy about it.
Before Lily Jones arrived, although her attitude towards him had not been good, it hadn’t been this distant. Was she taking out her anger on Lily on him?
Adam Jones felt sowhat wronged and asked her, “Are you angry?”
Elly Campbell was taken aback by Adam Jones’s sudden question. “What?”
She then listened as Adam continued, “Lily Jones is an idiot who made you angry, but you shouldn’t take it out on ; that’s not fair to .”
Adam’s eyes were filled with a small complaint, and his words made Elly pause again, her eyes clouded with confusion.
“When did I ever take out my anger on you because of Lily Jones?”
She put down the docunt in her hand, looked into Adam’s aggrieved eyes, and laughed, “You said it yourself, she’s an idiot. I wouldn’t stoop to the level of an idiot, and she’s certainly not worth wasting my ti over.”
Adam Jones watched her and truly believed she didn’t care about Lily Jones’s drama from before.
But if that was the case, why had she suddenly beco so cold?
Although she wasn’t overly explicit about it, his defenses were up, and he could feel even the slightest bit of her coldness.
Elly Campbell saw that Adam Jones didn’t answer and didn’t care, shifting her gaze back to the docunt in front of her.
“If it’s not because of Lily Jones, why have you suddenly beco cold?”
Adam’s voice, laced with a hint of complaint, once again interrupted Elly Campbell’s work, his expression similar to that of a wife neglected by her husband.
Elly Campbell frowned slightly, looking at him with a bit of confusion, “What?”
She asked softly, not understanding why Adam Jones would suddenly co out with such a remark.
She had suddenly beco cold?
When had she ever been warm to him?
Hadn’t it always been like this?
Adam Jones looked into the blankness of her eyes, feeling quite displeased inside.
There was always the feeling that he was being overly sentintal.
After another glance at Elly Campbell’s puzzled look, he said, “Keep busy, I’ll be out for a bit.”
Elly Campbell didn’t know what exactly was bothering him. Watching him leave the office, she turned her attention back to the docunt.
Yet her mind kept replaying Adam Jones’s earlier comnt.
Cold?
Elly Campbell knitted her brows in so bewildernt. Was that so?
Her gaze involuntarily fell on the drawer where Adam had thrown the picture fra; her eyes inadvertently dimd and then she withdrew her gaze lightly.
Adam Jones stepped out of the office, feeling unreasonably irritable.
He adjusted his necktie and strode towards the exit of the company building. Before long, everyone saw him return with a big bag of food.
Through the receptionist, everyone knew that the woman who had co up with the president was the president’s wife, and now, seeing the president bring up such a big bag of stuff, it was clearly for his wife.
They’d never seen the president get close to any woman besides Miss Jones, and had even wondered about the president’s orientation, only to discover he had a wife all along.
But why didn’t the president ever bring his wife out?
