Chapter 453: 453. Parent-child Sports Day_1

Adam Jones’s eyes sparkled when he spoke about this, as if cooking for them, a mother and son, was an especially honorable thing for this domineering CEO.

Elly Campbell frowned, wanting to say she definitely couldn’t stomach his disastrous cooking, but before she could speak, Adam Jones had already dragged her away.

"Let’s go."

Just at that moment, Elly Campbell’s cellphone rang; it was William Campbell’s kindergarten teacher.

"Miss Davis."

Elly Campbell answered the call, and because of the incident where William had fought with another child, she didn’t have a very good impression of the kindergarten teacher.

"A parent-child sports day?"

Elly Campbell was startled upon hearing Mr. Gresia’s words over the phone.

"That’s right, William’s mom, our kindergarten hosts a parent-child sports day every year. Since William is new to our kindergarten, we hope he can sign up for this event. It would allow him to better integrate with the other children in the class. I’ve asked William several times, but he has been reluctant, so I wanted to discuss it with you..."

Upon hearing this, Elly Campbell’s brows furrowed even more. She glanced over at her son, who was playing with Adam Jones, and her heart surged with waves of pity.

A moment later, Elly Campbell replied through the phone, "Okay, I understand. Tomorrow I’ll bring William over."

Although Adam Jones was playing with William, his attention was on Elly Campbell. After hearing the change in her voice upon receiving that call from Mr. Gresia, his heart sank.

He lifted his hand to ruffle William’s hair, telling him to play with his sibling first, before he himself stood up and walked over to Elly Campbell, asking in a low voice:

"What did William’s teacher say?"

Elly Campbell looked at William, pursed her lips tightly, and repeated Mr. Gresia’s words to Adam Jones.

Adam Jones’s gaze dropped, and he walked over to William, scooping him up in his arms, "Son, your teacher just called mommy to say that the kindergarten has a parent-child sports day tomorrow, and your mommy has signed you up."

Upon hearing this, William didn’t look very excited; instead, he seemed averse to the idea. He furrowed his brow and said in a low voice, "I don’t want to go."

"Why not? As a man, are you afraid of losing?"

William bit his lower lip, not making a sound, but the hurt and sadness quickly filled his eyes.

He didn’t answer Adam Jones’s question, simply saying firmly, "I just don’t want to go."

"If you don’t go, how embarrassing it will be for daddy and mommy to be there without you, we wouldn’t even know whose daddy and mommy we are."

Adam Jones, carrying William, coaxed him as they walked, and as soon as he had spoken, William’s eyes suddenly lit up, "Daddy is going too?"

"Of course, hasn’t daddy promised William? Whatever William wants to do in the future, daddy will be there with you. Not only am I going tomorrow, but I will also make sure William wins the championship, okay?"

"Yay!"

William cheered excitedly, turning back to Elly Campbell who was following behind:

"Mommy, we need to take lots of food and drinks to the sports day to keep our energy up, let’s go to the supermarket to buy some now."

Elly Campbell smiled and nodded, seeing the ecstatic joy on her son’s face made her feel even more guilty and remorseful.

But little did she know, Adam Jones’s heart was in even more turmoil. He was the root cause of all these issues; it was because of him that his son had to endure such distress.
