Chapter 254: 254. Forgot about custody_1

When she got home, her gaze unconsciously drifted over to the door opposite hers. Nathan Stewart’s words kept swirling in her mind, followed by Adam Jones’s look from last night, which only added to her irritation.

Upon entering, William Campbell was playing with Lynn Clark. Seeing her return, Lynn got up to make dinner, and Elly Campbell went over to play with William for a while.

"Mommy, did you see Daddy today?"

After a while, William suddenly looked up and asked her. Elly Campbell was taken aback, then shook her head, "No, why?"

"William didn’t see him either. I wanted to find Daddy to play with when I got home from school, but he never came back."

The little guy’s tone carried a hint of disappointment.

Elly Campbell felt a bit of chaos in her heart and sat beside William in a daze until he tugged at her clothes again and said, "Mommy, can you call Daddy and ask him when he will come back?"

Elly Campbell was startled again, met with her son’s expectant gaze, and after a long while, she still refused, "He has a lot of work to do. He will come to find you once he’s finished."

William’s custody was already in Adam Jones’s hands; he was bound to come and take him away sooner or later.

Thinking of this, the bit of gratitude Elly Campbell felt for Adam Jones’s recent help was forcefully dissipated.

In the several days that followed, Adam Jones did not appear again. William seemed to have forgotten about Adam Jones and did not mention him again.

Elly Campbell breathed a sigh of relief. Since Adam Jones hadn’t come to take William away, she naturally would not be foolish enough to proactively send William to him. It would be even better if he forgot about this matter.

The dispute with Glory Group came to an end, and the collaboration with Vicini Group gradually got on the right track.

With Adam Jones, Elly Campbell deliberately avoided thinking about him. It was as if she had set up a barrier in her heart, keeping Adam Jones outside. If she didn’t touch it, she wouldn’t feel the pain.

So she threw herself entirely into the endless work.

In her view, nothing was more important than regaining custody of her son. The first thing she had to do was catch up to Adam Jones.

To catch up to Adam Jones, she had to put in far more effort than others.

In the blink of an eye, another month passed, and she never took the initiative to send William to Adam Jones’s side. What surprised her even more was that Adam Jones did not come to take William away.

It was as if he had completely forgotten about the custody issue.

She had no idea that Adam Jones, who fought for custody out of spite, never actually planned to take his son away from her.

So, when she thought Adam Jones had forgotten about their son, she naturally wouldn’t foolishly remind Adam Jones about it.

But, of course, while Elly Campbell didn’t mention it, someone else couldn’t wait to bring it up in front of Adam Jones.

"Brother, didn’t you take the custody of my nephew from Elly Campbell’s hands? Why haven’t you brought him back yet?"

Lily Jones stood in front of Adam Jones, anxious.

She was still seething from the slap Elly Campbell had given her in the hospital last time, and it took her several days to get over it. She couldn’t imagine what kind of difficult and terrible temper her nephew would develop if left in Elly Campbell’s care.

Elly Campbell was simply too dreadful, too malicious.

It would be better to take William back sooner, cutting off the child’s contact with Elly Campbell. Furthermore, letting Sophie get closer to William would also benefit her future marriage to Brother.
