Chapter 1150: 1150. Jones’ Official Twitter Statement

This was issued through the Jones Official Twitter, so naturally there wouldn’t be any falsehood.

Instantly, the nation was in an uproar, especially among ordinary citizens, who unleashed a torrent of curses, feeling that Ian Foster was playing with them.

Others thought that Ian Foster might not dare to do this, perhaps something unpleasant happened in between, and Adam Jones backed out?

"This is really fucked up! Are we being made monkeys here?"

"I think that so-called Congressman Foster is out of his mind. It’s not like the Jones family’s money came from a flood, why should they help him build buildings?"

"..."

Perhaps because the hope of buying houses had fallen through, the public’s anger at being played grew even deeper, and the abuse Ian Foster received left him completely defenseless.

He never expected that Adam Jones would renege on the day before the election.

Wasn’t this openly humiliating him?

Frustrated, Ian Foster called Lily Bankston, and angrily said:

"What did you exactly say to Adam Jones, why would he suddenly renege? Have you seen what kind of insults I’m getting online?

In the hearts of the public, I have completely lost credibility, even if I run for election next time, no one will vote for me!"

What made Ian Foster even angrier was this, more so than if Adam Jones had refused from the start.

He knew that the housing policy couldn’t be completed without financial support.

And the national treasury’s finances couldn’t possibly bear this burden alone unless a corporation was willing to share the cost of this public housing project with the government.

It was for this reason that no candidate had lightly proposed the public housing policy, and he could only rely on Lily Bankston to woo Adam Jones.

Only after Adam Jones personally agreed, did he dare to announce this plan as a campaign promise.

Who would have thought that Adam Jones would suddenly renege?

When Lily Bankston first heard the news, she was dumbstruck.

She had never expected that Adam Jones would suddenly back out of an agreement that seemed all but settled.

Lily Bankston was annoyed, feeling that Adam Jones reneging on his word was a slap in her face, and even felt played by him.

This gave Lily Bankston, who had always believed that Adam Jones had unconditional trust in her, a profound sense of defeat.

But why would Adam Jones suddenly renege?

Lily Bankston’s face grew cold, "Don’t panic, there’s still a little time before tomorrow’s election, I’ll call and ask."

After saying this, she hung up the phone with a sullen face and dialed Adam Jones’ number in the country.

However, Adam Jones’ phone was always out of service, no matter how many different numbers she tried, all returned with an out-of-service message.

This made Lily Bankston feel somewhat uneasy.

Finally, she directly called the Jones family; the call was answered by Gloria.

"Mrs. Lily? You’re looking for the Young Master? He’s not home right now."

Gloria looked toward Elly Campbell seated on the sofa and said to Lily Bankston over the phone:

"The Young Miss is here, would you like her to take the call?"

Lily Bankston was silent for a moment, as if hesitating.

After a short while, she spoke, "Alright then."

Gloria placed the phone aside, walked over to Elly Campbell, and whispered:

"Young Miss, Mrs. Lily’s call."

Elly Campbell nodded, stood up and walked over to the landline, picking up the phone, "Aunt Lily."

"Elly, where has Adam gone?"

"He took his son out to play, do you need him for something, Aunt Lily?"

Upon hearing Elly Campbell say Adam Jones took his son out to play, Lily Bankston’s heart suddenly sank.

When she hypnotized Adam Jones before, she had added a "little something" to the hypnosis, so that he not only lacked any fatherly love for his son but also was extremely averse to him.
