Chapter 447: 447. Clingy_1
Elly Campbell was choked by his words, and her complexion darkened a few shades, "I heard wrong!"
"Then I’ll ask again."
Adam Jones walked behind her, leaned into her ear, and whispered.
His deep voice, deliberately seductive and magnetic, accompanied by the moist warmth of his breath, lingered in Elly Campbell’s ear, making her involuntary shiver.
"No need to ask again. You hurry back."
Elly Campbell’s voice, heightened by nervousness, caused William Campbell, who was playing happily with his uncle, to look up at her.
"Daddy isn’t living here?"
The excitement in William Campbell’s eyes dimmed noticeably.
Adam Jones and Elly Campbell’s hearts suddenly tightened. Adam Jones was thinking about how to reassure his son when he heard Elly Campbell say:
"No, Daddy is going to his own house to get his pajamas, and he’ll be back later."
Adam Jones cast a quiet glance at Elly Campbell’s face, and although this was the result he very much desired, he couldn’t help but feel amused and exasperated inside.
If it weren’t for his son, his pursuit of his wife would have been even harder.
"Are you guys lying to me?"
"No."
Elly Campbell’s lips forced out a bright smile, looking at Adam Jones, "You ask Daddy."
Adam Jones was taken aback by Elly Campbell’s sudden smile towards him, staring at her blankly for a long while before coming back to his senses and saying to William Campbell, "That’s right, Daddy promised William he would always be with him."
When William Campbell heard both his parents saying this, he finally relaxed. The worried expression on his face was instantly replaced by joy.
Yet despite such moments, both Elly Campbell felt deeply pained inside.
Especially Elly Campbell, who realized only now that the treasure she often spoke about actually felt so insecure.
"I’ll have someone merge our houses tomorrow."
Adam Jones leaned into her ear and spoke, half-joking yet seemingly earnest. Elly Campbell gave him a look of disdain, an "idiot" in her gaze, but didn’t take what Adam Jones said to heart.
"Quick, go pack up your things."
She urged him with a stern face.
She couldn’t remember when it started, but facing Adam Jones now, she could no longer maintain the calm she had in the beginning.
"Alright, as you wish."
Adam Jones suppressed the smile in his eyes and whispered softly.
He didn’t return to the house opposite, but instead, carrying his suitcase, went straight upstairs.
"Adam Jones!"
Elly Campbell saw him heading upstairs and quickly got up to follow, "Where are you going?"
"Didn’t you just urge me to pack?"
His smile carried a faint innocence.
Elly Campbell pursed her lips tightly, frowning, "Didn’t I tell you to go back to your own place?"
"Since I have to come back anyway, why bother with the hassle."
"You..."
Thinking about her son’s gloomy gaze earlier, and the words she had spoken, she swallowed back her words. "Go to the guest room."
"Okay."
Seeing Elly Campbell agree, the joy in Adam Jones’ eyes deepened a bit, and he agreed very straightforwardly.
For Elly Campbell, every small concession she made was already progress. Adam Jones didn’t dare push too much in her presence.
Adam Jones didn’t have many belongings, so he packed them quickly and came downstairs.
He glanced at his watch; it was already past five in the afternoon. At this time of year, it was already dark, and dinner time was approaching.
He knew Elly Campbell didn’t cook; usually, it was the hired nanny who did the cooking.
Thinking of the nanny, Adam Jones frowned slightly, feeling that he needed to remind Elly about her.
