Chapter 139: 139.Faintly Expecting_1

In the washroom, William Campbell’s classmate, also dressed in the costume of Wing Dragon, gave Elly Campbell a reason to switch children with the classmate’s mother. That was close, fortunately, Adam Jones had no suspicion.

"President."

"President Jones, have you taken care of your matters?"

General Storm kindly asked from across the way.

"Yes, it’s been handled. Thank you for your concern, General Storm."

Adam Jones nodded politely yet distantly, "Regarding the project, General Storm can send someone to get in touch with our company’s personnel at any time. I won’t impose on your time today."

Adam Jones’s words were polite, but General Storm, being a veteran in business, could hear Jones was hinting for him to leave. He gave up on the idea of inviting Jones to dine and said, "Then I’ll take my leave. Please, President Jones, stay a few more days here so that I can fulfill the duties of a host."

"You are too kind, General Storm."

After seeing off General Storm, Adam Jones’s expression turned cold once more, inscrutable.

"President?"

"Pull up all the surveillance footage from the shopping mall."

After saying that, he left with a cold expression, not in a hurry to find Elly Campbell.

There must be something Elly Campbell has hidden from him about the child; he didn’t want to pressure her just yet.

Just now, Elly Campbell’s behavior was clearly that of someone hiding something, fearful of him finding out, so he decided to indulge her wishes for the time being.

Not long after Adam Jones returned to his hotel, Robert Green, who was ordered to retrieve the mall’s surveillance, quickly came back.

"President, I’ve inquired, and there was a problem with the mall’s surveillance control system. It has been under maintenance for the past couple of days, and the cameras were not activated today."

The news Robert Green brought made Adam Jones’s brow furrow tightly, his thin lips pressed firmly together.

"Not a single camera was on?"

Adam Jones pressed, not willing to let it go.

"That’s right, none of the mall’s cameras were on."

Robert Green glanced at Adam Jones, who had suddenly asked for the mall’s security footage, surely due to some important matter he had encountered.

It was quite possibly related to his wife.

Adam Jones fell silent for a moment, then said, "Investigate Elly Campbell’s son; I need to know everything."

"President?"

There was a look of surprise on Robert Green’s face. It hadn’t been long since he was told to cease the investigation on Mrs. Jones, and now, the decision had changed?

Adam Jones knew what Robert Green was thinking, but he had no desire to explain. With a stern face, he said, "Be careful in your investigation, and don’t let Elly Campbell notice."

"Understood, President."

Robert Green turned and left. The look in Adam Jones’s eyes darkened—the child...

Around three years of age, if he wasn’t mistaken, that child could very well be his son.

Four years ago, that one time...

Could it be such a coincidence?

Adam Jones couldn’t explain what he was feeling at that moment, but deep down, he harbored some expectation, hoping that the findings from Robert Green’s investigation would match his suspicions.

Elly Campbell had been feeling anxious these past few days, ever since she saw Adam Jones in the mall, her heart constantly on edge as if something was about to happen.

Because William resembled Adam Jones, from the moment she returned to the country, she never hoped to keep it a secret from Adam Jones indefinitely.

Once Adam Jones started to doubt William, a simple investigation would reveal William to be his son.

Even though she was mentally prepared for all possibilities, Elly Campbell still didn’t wish for Adam Jones to find out so soon.

"CEO Campbell?"

Seeing Elly Campbell lost in thought and not responding, the secretary called out softly.

"Hmm? What did you say?"
