Chapter 328: 328. She is a person that even Adam Jones doesn’t dare to provoke_1

Even if Elly Campbell treated him however she pleased, he would still volunteer to stand up for her, only to shove her into the mire and let her flounder in disgrace.

She clenched her teeth, unwilling to accept the situation and looked at Robert Green with a bitter smile, "Why does Adam have to treat me this way? I never wronged him."

Her unwillingness was palpable, her low voice tinged with bitterness and pity.

Robert Green glanced at her pitiful look, his expression unchanging, and said, "But you provoked someone whom even President Jones dares not provoke, and that’s where you went wrong."

From beginning to end, Robert Green spoke with a gentle tone and expression, but his words were more piercing than the last.

What does it mean to provoke someone even Adam Jones wouldn’t dare to provoke? Elly Campbell must really be capable.

Yet Adam Jones protects Elly Campbell so, making Sophie Baker even more unwilling to swallow her pride, "How can he be so heartless? Back then, for his sake, I nearly lost my life, and this is how he repays me?"

Hearing this, Robert Green’s originally perfect expression couldn’t help but twitch, and he couldn’t help but roll his eyes internally at Sophie Baker.

Yet his face still wore a smile as he looked at Sophie Baker and said, "Miss Baker, don’t always bring up the past. What you’ve obtained from President Jones’s hands is enough to repay the favor from back then. Moreover..."

At that, he suddenly smiled sinisterly, "As for what really happened back then, it still remains unclear. Back then, the President was so frustrated by his wife that he missed the best time to investigate. You better pray that after eight years, the President finds nothing, otherwise..."

Robert Green did not finish his sentence but glanced at the barely alive James Baker and got into the car.

He had delivered all of President Jones’s warnings, which was his last act of mercy toward them. If this mother and daughter dared to step on President Jones’s bottom line again, they would truly be done for.

The black Maserati drove away from the Baker Family villa, and the mother-daughter duo collapsed onto the ground, their backs already drenched in cold sweat.

Everything they did back then was so clandestine; they even sacrificed Sophie Baker herself to gain Adam Jones’s trust. They thought that after eight years, the past would remain in the past, but Robert Green’s words...

Had Adam Jones become suspicious?

No, no!

Sophie Baker panicked, clumsily trying to stand up against the wall, "Mom, we can’t let Adam Jones find out about the past, or we’re finished."

"I... I know, I’ll tell Uncle Forest to be careful."

Melody Baker was also frightened, recalling the look Robert Green gave James Baker just before leaving, which was clearly a warning to them.

Just for teaching Elly Campbell a lesson using a few thugs, Adam Jones was able to cripple her own brother’s legs. If the events of the past were uncovered, Adam Jones might well ensure they died without a sound.

The thought alone made Melody Baker and Sophie Baker shudder. After a long while, they remembered to take James Baker to the hospital.

As for Elly Campbell, after leaving the Jones Corporation building, she went straight back to the hotel.

Once she entered the room, she collapsed onto the bed, utterly deflated.

Yet the moment she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with Adam Jones’s look of longing when he spoke of remarriage, and his bewilderment and loss when she flatly refused him.

It hadn’t seemed like much at the time, but now with her eyes closed, that image of him became ever clearer.
