Chapter 227: 227. The Emotionally Uncontrolled Elly Campbell_1

Fortunately, Adam Jones made no move, merely standing quietly to the side, with an air of indifference.

Sophie Baker, seeing Elly Campbell grabbing hold of Lily Jones like a madwoman, refusing to let go, and glaring as if she wanted to devour Lily, was scared out of her wits, but a part of her also felt a dark glee.

It served Adam right to see with his own eyes what that wretched Elly Campbell was capable of doing to his sister, saving her a lot of effort.

With that thought, she walked over to Adam Jones in pretended panic, attempting to grasp his arm, only to have him silently flick her hand away.

Sophie Baker’s eyes darkened, but on her face, she looked almost ready to cry, "Adam, please make your sister let go. Lily has only just started to recover, how can she withstand such treatment from her sister!"

She too, was seething with hatred. Seeing Elly Campbell treat his own sister like this, how could Adam remain so detached.

Adam Jones indeed remained detached, no, more accurately, he was inwardly pleased.

Had it not been for his principle of not hitting women, he would have slapped Lily Jones several times already after that idiotic thing she said.

It was just as well that Elly Campbell was knocking some sense into her foolish brain.

At that moment, Elly Campbell had no idea of the multitude of thoughts running through Adam Jones’s mind. She only knew that if Adam Jones were to give custody of her precious son to Sophie Baker, she would take Lily Jones’s life!

"Had I known how stupid and shameless you were, I should have let you die on the operating table!"

The more Lily Jones struggled, the greater the strength of Elly’s grip became, to the point where Lily felt like her wrist could be crushed by Elly at any moment.

"Elly... you are so cruel, you actually wish me dead!"

Lily Jones’s face turned pale with pain, and at that moment, she somewhat regretted provoking Elly Campbell, this demon.

"Cruel?"

Elly Campbell let out a cold laugh, "I can show you just how cruel I can be. If you so much as think about laying a finger on my son, I can take your life!"

Having said that, she flung Lily Jones away. Unprepared, Lily was sent sprawling to the ground by Elly’s throw.

"Lily!"

Sophie Baker screamed, hurrying forward to help Lily Jones up, "Lily, you look so pale, how are you feeling?"

She intentionally raised her voice, her tone anxious and trembling slightly, still trying to provoke Adam Jones’s dislike and anger towards Elly Campbell, but from beginning to end, Adam Jones maintained his indifferent stance.

Adam Jones saw Elly Campbell having dealt with Lily Jones and then looking back at him, that icy glare cutting to the bone, and it made Adam’s heart suddenly sink, his brows furrowing slightly.

"Adam Jones."

Elly Campbell’s voice was cold to the marrow, her gaze distant yet filled with hatred, "I can give you our son. I don’t care whom you marry, but if you dare hand my son over to someone like her to raise, even in death, I won’t let the Jones Family off easy!"

Her voice shook violently with rage.

She knew she couldn’t provoke Adam Jones now, so for her son’s sake, she tried her best to remain calm and speak to Adam. However, the very thought of William Campbell being taken away by Adam and given to someone like Sophie Baker caused her heart to ache as if it had been trampled by thousands of troops.

If William fell into the hands of Sophie and her daughter, would he still have a good life?

Just thinking of that possibility made her start considering the idea of swallowing up Lily and her brother.

Adam Jones looked at Elly Campbell’s trembling lips, the anger and hatred filling her eyes.
