Chapter 264: 264. Digging under my foundation has come to me_1
"Madam and the president are the perfect match. The moment I saw you, I felt only you could truly deserve the title of our president’s wife, so I still habitually refer to you as such."
Elly Campbell looked at the smiling face of Robert Green. Those who didn’t know him wouldn’t realize that although he seemed easy to get along with, he was just as tricky to deal with as Adam Jones—a cunning old fox.
Seeing such an old fox smilingly addressing her as "Madam," Elly Campbell couldn’t help feeling creeped out.
"I’ve always known Aide Baker is excellent at his job, but I didn’t expect his bootlicking skills to be even stronger than others’. Since I’m so favored in Aide Baker’s eyes, why not switch employers and come work for me?"
Elly Campbell raised an eyebrow at Robert Green, and just as she finished speaking, the door to the adjacent hospital room opened, and Adam Jones looked over at Robert Green with an expression of unsuspecting surprise.
Finding himself being observed in such a manner by his own boss, Robert Green immediately felt a chill down his spine, along with the vague realization that he may have been set up by the boss’s wife.
Right then, Robert Green pledged his loyalty in front of Adam Jones, "I’m flattered that the madam thinks so highly of me, but President Jones has been good to me, and I will dedicate my life to our president."
Elly Campbell: "..."
This flattery really was something one couldn’t compliment.
Adam Jones glanced at Robert Green and then at Elly Campbell’s speechless expression. He sneered, "Is CEO Campbell’s company short on talent? You’re even trying to poach from my company."
Elly Campbell looked at Adam Jones and thought about how he had just come out of his grandfather’s room. She was somewhat surprised, but her face showed nothing of the sort. She simply glanced at both men and laughed, "You two truly have a deep bond as master and servant."
After saying that, she pushed open the door of the hospital room and walked in.
Robert Green looked at Adam Jones and then at the closed door of the hospital room. He moved closer to Adam Jones and whispered, "President, I think the madam might have misunderstood something about us."
The moment those words were spoken, they successfully earned Robert Green a look of icy contempt from Adam Jones, "You wish."
Robert Green: "!!!"
What did he say wrong!
"President, the Old Master has already been visited. Are we going back now?"
Adam Jones, standing outside the door, hadn’t moved an inch. Only upon hearing Robert Green’s words did he ponder for a moment before saying, "You go back first."
"And you...?"
"Take the car."
Adam Jones added another sentence.
Robert Green immediately showed an "I understand" expression, nodded, and said, "Alright, President, I’ll be leaving first then."
Elly Campbell was inside talking with the Old Master when she saw Adam Jones push the door open and walk in again.
The Old Master’s attitude towards Adam Jones had improved a lot recently. Seeing him go out and come back in again, the Old Master said in surprise, "Adam, why have you come back?"
"Robert just had an emergency at home and took the car."
He then proceeded to sit down in the empty chair next to Elly Campbell, smiled at her, and said, "CEO Campbell, you don’t mind giving me a ride, do you?"
Elly Campbell looked at Adam Jones, her gaze carrying a hint of scrutiny.
After a moment, she laughed, "Aide Baker is bold enough to compete with President Jones for a car. Is he getting arrogant because President Jones spoils him?"
Adam Jones heard the teasing in Elly Campbell’s words but wasn’t angry. He simply said, "I’ve always been lenient with my subordinates. CEO Campbell doesn’t know me at all."
Elly Campbell inwardly scoffed in disdain and remained silent.
The Old Master listened to the two of them bantering in front of him and couldn’t help but laugh.
What ex-husband and ex-wife? In his view, they were clearly a couple delightfully at odds with each other.
