Chapter 670: 670. That woman’s past_1 Chapter 670: 670. That woman’s past_1 Embarrassnt and shock were written all over Sophia Green’s face at this mont.
Daisy Thompson, who had just suffered a blow, saw Adam Jones treat Sophia Green this way, a clear displeasure appeared on her face as she said,
“Adam, what is this attitude? Sophia just wanted to have a word with you, how can you…”
“Get out!”
Impatience had already erged on the originally cold and indifferent face of Adam Jones.
Elly Campbell, who had been standing silently beside Adam, watching Daisy Thompson display this baffling sense of superiority towards a son who had not contacted her for over twenty years, found it particularly repelling.
Seeing Daisy Thompson’s deanor, Elly found even glancing at her annoying. Without caring what Daisy wanted to say, she only said to Adam,
“It’s a bit cold outside, let’s go in.”
“Okay.”
The chill in his eyes dissipating, his gaze softened noticeably when he looked at Elly.
The two of them ignored Daisy Thompson and Sophia Green, leaving the deck and entering the cabin.
Perhaps because she had been standing outside for too long, Elly felt her waist ache and found a place to sit down.
Seeing her tired expression, Adam stepped aside and made a phone call, “Arrange for a yacht to co over.”
After hanging up the phone, Adam prepared to return to Elly but was stopped by Sophia Green, who had re-entered the cabin.
“President Jones, I know I may be presumptuous, but my mother has been missing you a lot, she wants to talk to you, please…”
“What are you?”
Adam interrupted her impatiently, disregarding Sophia’s pale face, and walked past her towards Elly.
Watching Adam’s indifferent back, Sophia bit her lower lip hard, her eyes filling with a distinct hint of moisture.
When Elly turned her head, she saw Sophia Green intercept Adam and say sothing, only to be coldly interrupted by him.
Elly, watching Sophia bite her lip with a look of aggrievent, felt an inexplicable aversion.
Her gaze did not linger on Sophia’s face for long before she withdrew it.
By this ti, Adam had already returned.
He sat down beside her and said, “We’ll go back after sitting for a bit longer.”
Elly could hear Adam’s voice straining to contain his emotions and simply nodded in agreent without asking further.
When the small yacht arranged by Adam arrived, he greeted William Hall and then left with Elly.
When the yacht reached the shore, the Jones family’s driver was already waiting at the dock.
“Sir, madam.”
The driver opened the car door, and after the two got in, he slowly drove away from the dock.
Elly sensed that Adam’s mood was off, but she didn’t want to ask him about it at this mont, so she just quietly leaned on his shoulder.
Adam lifted his arm, drawing her into his embrace, and gently kissed the top of her head without a word.
After a silence of more than ten minutes, Adam finally said,
“Aren’t you curious about that woman’s affairs?”
There was a faint mockery in his deep voice, and a struggle to contain certain emotions.
Elly lifted her head from his embrace and looked at the man who had been without parents since the age of six, suddenly understanding why he was so reclusive, with only Harry Hall as a friend by his side.
At six years old, he probably lost the childhood he should have had, bearing burdens at that age that were not ant for him.
A mother who lived in the sa city and had never cared about him for over twenty years.
