Chapter 465: 465. Do we need to be so high-profile_1

If she hadn’t secretly left back then or if she hadn’t hidden the existence of William from Adam, might the outcome have been different?

At that time, she was convinced that Adam would never allow her to have his child, which is why she panicked and fled; but what if that wasn’t the case?

Elly’s mind was in disarray; she firmly believed that her decision to divorce Adam back then wasn’t wrong, yet, whenever she thought of her son’s lost and bewildered eyes, she felt she had made a tremendous mistake.

"Daddy, Mommy, I’m dressed now, and I’ve washed my face and brushed my teeth; let’s go."

William’s excited voice pulled Elly back from her thoughts.

She quickly stepped away from Adam’s embrace and went over to her son, straightening his clothes a bit, and said,

"All right, let’s go downstairs for breakfast first."

She was very good at controlling her emotions; in just a moment, the loss that had been evident before was invisible now.

William nodded vigorously and hurried out of the room. After taking a few steps, he turned back to look at his parents trailing behind and asked,

"Aunt Clark isn’t here, Mommy, do you know how to cook?"

William thought of the day in the United States when Mommy had personally made breakfast for him and couldn’t help but shudder inwardly.

Seeing the instant terror on her son’s face, coupled with the question he had asked, Elly’s expression instantly turned sour.

Adam, walking beside her, saw her embarrassed look and his son’s insecurity. Understanding the situation, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

As Elly glanced sideways at him, he promptly restrained the smile on his lips, although the amusement in his eyes continued to spread.

Nevertheless, he tenderly patted her shoulder and comforted her, "It’s okay not to know how to cook; from now on, your husband will do it."

In Elly’s slightly disgruntled eyes, he added, "Whatever you want to eat, I’ll make it for you."

For some reason, Elly detected a hint of boasting in Adam’s tone.

Just as she was about to say something, Adam had already walked over to William, squatted down, and patted his little head, saying,

"Don’t worry, Daddy made breakfast, and it’s really tasty."

Hearing that breakfast wasn’t made by Mommy, the worried look on William’s face instantly vanished, and Elly could clearly see the relief on his face.

Elly: "..."

Is this really her son?

As she watched William being led downstairs by Adam, Elly suddenly felt a wave of "sorrow" wash over her as if the whole world had abandoned her.

After William had breakfast, the family of three left the house. Elly had intended to drive herself, but as soon as they reached the lobby of their complex, the Jones family’s chauffeur was already waiting.

"President, Madam, Young Master."

Adam rarely visited Alaska, and so there were few opportunities for the Jones family’s driver to interact with him.

But he was well aware of the place that this lady and child held in the heart of his big boss, so he treated these two distinguished individuals with the respect one might show to their ancestors.

Elly looked at the silver Rolls-Royce in front of her, one of only five in the world, and the only one in the entire country.

Does it have to be this ostentatious!

In Elly’s memory, Adam was a uniquely low-key man among the wealthy, not having bought things like private planes or yachts.

It seems he didn’t buy what he felt was unnecessary.

Yet, looking at this limited edition Rolls-Royce, which not only exuded an aura of wealth but also represented connections and power, Elly began to question her previous notions.
