Relentless Pursuit After Divorce

Adam Jones said, suppressing his impatience.

"Elly Campbell" of course did not know that Adam had already seen through her, yet she still attempted to get close to him.

Seeing that he was going to accompany his son, she quickly said:

"I’ll go with you."

A hint of awkwardness appeared on her face, "Although it feels sudden having a son, he’s still my son. I can’t just ignore him." noveldrama

Adam Jones looked at her for two seconds and nodded, "Alright."

A slight smile appeared on her face as she quickly moved forward to take his arm.

Adam Jones sensed her intention and quickly stepped away from her hand and walked towards William Campbell’s room.

Pushing open the door, William Campbell was reading a storybook and immediately showed a delighted expression when he saw them come in.

"Daddy, mommy."

The cold lines on Adam Jones’ face softened when he saw his son’s bright smile.

He stepped forward and sat down in front of him, then his expression froze the next second.

Following him was "Elly Campbell," whose expression also stiffened upon seeing William Campbell’s face.

This was due to the very noticeable bruise from his nose to his chin.

It was caused by her forcefully covering his nose and mouth in the afternoon.

It didn’t show at the time, but after a while, the bruise had developed.

"Elly Campbell" was terrified, especially when she saw Adam’s gaze suddenly turn sharp as he looked at William Campbell’s face, and her heartbeat quickened.

Seeing that Adam quickly hid the coldness on his face, he touched William’s injured mouth and asked:

"How did you hurt your mouth? What happened?"

William Campbell, still a child, couldn’t hide his thoughts very well.

Hearing Adam ask this, his gaze immediately glanced at "Elly Campbell’s" face, and then he covered his mouth with his hand, saying:

"It was an accident."

Seeing that Adam was focusing on the injury on William’s mouth, "Elly Campbell" felt a sudden relief.

William’s response did not arouse Adam’s suspicion. He took the picture book from William’s hand and said:

"It’s late, sleep well. You have school tomorrow."

"Okay."

William obediently lay down, and Adam Jones bent down to cover him with the blanket, his brows and eyes exuding a chill.

He thought this woman wouldn’t dare to go too far under his watch at the Jones family, but it seems she was bolder than he imagined.

She actually dared to hurt his son.

Adam Jones’ gaze deepened.

He now felt somewhat frightened, for underestimating this woman, he almost let his son get hurt.

If this woman hadn’t stopped herself then...

Adam Jones dared not continue the thought.

He was annoyed with himself for being too careless, so focused on finding Elly that he neglected his son’s safety.

After covering him with the blanket, he stood up, turned off the light, and walked out without waiting for "Elly Campbell."

The coldness emanating from him was now distinctly obvious, causing the breath that "Elly Campbell" had just relaxed to tighten up again.

She even started to worry, wondering if Adam hadn’t shown any reaction just now because he truly hadn’t noticed anything, or if he was just not showing it to avoid worrying his son.
