Chapter 183: 183. Really don’t care about Elly Campbell anymore_1
Especially this young man who has been dragging his feet on getting a divorce, what is he really thinking? Doesn’t he understand?
Only then did Adam Jones lift his eyes to give him a faint glance, his somber face revealing a touch of sarcastic amusement, "Does it affect me whether she agrees or not?"
As he spoke, the gloomy look in his eyes deepened.
Harry Hall had no idea what had transpired between Adam Jones and Elly Campbell in Alaska this time, to make this domineering CEO, who had been resisting divorce, not only decide to divorce but also plan to fight for custody of the son. What on earth had provoked him?
"Do you really not care about Elly Campbell anymore?"
Harry asked with a smile, seeing Adam’s complexion change slightly, sinking a bit, he remained silent.
Adam has always been a decisive and cold-hearted person. The hesitance he showed in response to such a question was enough evidence that it wasn’t that easy for him to let go of Elly Campbell from his heart.
Harry chose not to say more. He stood up in front of Adam and said, "Think it over carefully, and find me when you have made up your mind."
Having said that, he got up and left the office.
Frowning, Adam gazed at the document in front of him with a sullen face, unable to focus on a single word.
The day when Elly Campbell told him word by word that she had never cared about him, that the past three years had been nothing but a facade, he was both angry and disappointed. The incident from eight years ago invaded his mind once again, jabbing at every nerve in his heart and stirring up the hatred that had settled there.
In half a month’s time, it would be the eightieth birthday of Old Master Campbell. Besides his eldest son, James Campbell, he had two daughters settled in Canada and a younger son settled in the United States.
For this grand birthday celebration, those three families had all rushed back too.
Having enjoyed considerable prestige in the military before his retirement, Old Master Campbell had many important military and political figures coming to offer birthday wishes. In addition to them, there were business professionals close to the Campbell family’s children.
Meanwhile, an elongated Bentley car slowly drove into the Campbell family’s mansion. Getting out of the car were two people: the Jones Family’s Old Lady and the current head of the Jones family, Adam Jones.
As soon as Adam arrived, he easily drew the attention of everyone present. Putting aside the military figures, who in the political and business circles didn’t want to form connections with Adam?
Therefore, as soon as he got out of the car, many people were eager to approach him for a conversation.
The impression Adam gave was still one of distant aloofness. While he wasn’t so cold as to keep people at bay, he was still generally not easy to approach.
He escorted Lady Jones, step by step, and nodded in greeting to the people nearby before going to find Old Master Campbell.
"Old Master Campbell, I’ve come to congratulate you on your birthday."
"Oh! Lady Jones has arrived, such an honor, such an honor."
Old Master Campbell had a good relationship with Lady Jones since they were young, so their interaction was more intimate than with others.
"Grandfather, happy birthday."
Adam was not a man of sweet talk, nor could he speak words that touched the heart. He merely presented the Old Master with a set of chess carved from white jade and said no more. His gaze, however, unconsciously searched the crowd for a certain person’s figure, but still, that person did not appear.
"Brother-in-law, why have you and the Old Lady come alone, where is my sister?"
An unfamiliar voice came from Adam’s right side, and he looked over to see a person standing with a wine glass, his handsome face bearing a hint of undisguised teasing.
