Chapter 105: 105. You didn’t get dumped by him, did you?_1

Elly Campbell sneered as she hooked up the corners of her lips, "I’ll keep the glowing green hat on your head burning bright, come winter it’ll even keep President Jones warm."

"Elly Campbell!"

Adam Jones, grinding his teeth in anger, simply couldn’t reconcile the woman clawing at him in front with the gentle and considerate Elly Campbell from the past.

"You’re welcome."

Without looking back, Elly Campbell shook off Adam Jones’s hand and strode towards the parking lot, but she bumped into someone hurrying over from behind.

"Don’t you have eyes when you walk, you..."

The incoming person started to speak in a unfriendly tone, their voice a bit rushed and shrill, but it stiffened the moment they looked up, "Sis... Miss Campbell, Adam."

Elly Campbell had not expected to see Sophie Baker here; seeing the flash of fear at the bottom of her eyes upon seeing herself, Elly raised an eyebrow.

Whether this illegitimate daughter was truly afraid of her or just pretending to be in front of Adam, her current performance was satisfying to her.

"What a coincidence."

Sophie Baker seemed truly nervous, her hands hanging by her sides, unconsciously curling.

Elly Campbell glanced at her lazily, lifting her chin arrogantly as she looked at Sophie and said, "You weren’t dumped by him, were you?"

While speaking, she glanced at Adam Jones, then let out a cold laugh, "How useless; four years have passed, and you’ve not improved but regressed instead."

Snorting, she didn’t care about the darkening expression on Adam Jones’s face or the look of utter humiliation on Sophie’s ashen face, reminiscent of the evil supporting female characters in novels.

As he watched Elly Campbell’s figure receding further away, Adam Jones’s gaze grew colder, and the anger that had flared up also began to subside bit by bit.

Looking at Sophie Baker, the words that had just been argued with Elly flashed through his mind. Narrowing his eyes, he seemed to ponder something.

Elly Campbell drove out of the parking lot and, as she passed by the entrance to the coffee shop, saw Adam Jones stepping towards Sophie Baker with his eyes downcast, not knowing what he was saying to Sophie. Afterward, the two of them entered the coffee shop together.

Watching the backs of the two people disappear at the entrance of the coffee shop, Elly Campbell hooked the corners of her lips coldly, her eyes filled with sarcasm.

"Adam, is there something you want to ask me?"

Sophie Baker looked at the refined man before her, whose attractiveness effortlessly captured all attention even without showing much expression.

When she heard him initiate an invitation to have coffee together, she felt a joy she couldn’t deny and without thinking followed him inside, forgetting what she was actually there for.

But now, looking at the man’s chilly handsome face and those deep, inscrutable black eyes, she inexplicably felt a sense of panic.

Adam Jones looked up at her, remaining silent, simply watching her quietly, his sharp gaze like a searchlight, scrutinizing her inside out.

This made Sophie Baker even more nervous, "Adam?"

Adam Jones narrowed his eyes slightly before finally asking, "I want to ask you about something from eight years ago."

Sophie Baker’s hand tightened around her coffee cup, yet her expression remained calm as she looked at Adam with confusion, "Eight years ago? What are you referring to?"

"What do you think?"

With a slight frown, Adam Jones’s eyebrows and eyes gathered a chilliness, causing Sophie involuntarily to shiver.

Seeing her subsequently reveal a look of realization, she lowered her voice and said, "Are you talking about what my sister did eight years ago?"
