Chapter 468: 468. Hit until relieved _1

Although they were wealthy and had some connections in Alaska, compared to someone like Adam Jones, the Jones Family was the true epitome of a powerful and wealthy household in Greece.

Their son becoming schoolmates with Adam Jones’s son meant a limitless future ahead.

The couple was enthusiastic about the idea and looked at William Campbell, whom Adam held, with extra "affection."

How could Adam fail to see through the couple’s intentions? He sneered inwardly.

Talking behind his wife’s back, their son having hit his son, and they still expected to get off easily?

Did they think Adam Jones was dead?

His cold gaze slightly drooped as he looked at the child standing in front of him with a bruised face. His eyes narrowed, scaring the child into shivering subconsciously.

"You’ve already hit someone, how could it be nothing?"

The corners of Adam’s lips curled into a mocking smile, his gaze turning to his beloved son, who was glaring at the bully, his voice softened.

"Did you hit this child?"

William glanced at his daddy, uncertain whether his daddy was angry because of the fight. He felt uneasy.

He lowered his head and nodded gently, "Yes, I hit him."

Seeing that William promptly admitted it, the parents of the bully were satisfied, but they quickly said to Mr. Jones:

"Mr. Jones, don’t mind it. They are just kids, getting into fights is normal, you shouldn’t take it to heart."

It was the bully’s father speaking, trying to ingratiate himself with Adam Jones to the point of almost kneeling down and calling him dad, treating William as if he were his own brother, making everyone around him scoff.

Adam looked at him with a cold eye, his face showing clear disdain, "Am I speaking to you?"

The bully’s father’s face stiffened, not expecting Adam’s response to be so blunt, feeling slightly annoyed inside. However, he dared not show the slightest displeasure and instead said sheepishly:

"Sorry... my apologies, Mr. Jones."

Adam paid him no mind and turned his attention to the bully hiding behind his parents, asking, "Why did William hit you?"

No sooner had Adam asked this question than the bully’s parents’ scalps tightened. It was already too late to cover their son’s mouth when they heard the bully blurt out:

"William’s mom is a mistress, and he is a bastard. They are all bad people..."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Watching Adam’s expression grow increasingly frosty, the bully’s father raised his hand and slapped the child, then turned to Adam, consecutively apologizing:

"Mr. Jones, I’m really sorry. The child is ignorant and talks nonsense. He has offended Mrs. Jones and the Young Master, and we are deeply sorry..."

They thought that after such an apology and even slapping their son, Adam would let the matter go. Yet, they saw the chill on Adam’s face not only remain but intensify.

His lips curled into a sinister arc as he looked at the now-crying bully, saying, "Such ignorance indeed deserves a slap!"

The bully’s parents’ faces grew even uglier upon hearing Adam’s words.

Noting that Adam completely ignored the bully’s parents and instead turned to William, he inquired, "Do you feel better now? If you haven’t gotten it out of your system, you can continue hitting him until you’re satisfied."

Adam’s unreasonably harsh words made the onlookers uncomfortable, thinking he was too heavy-handed.

It was only a childish remark between kids, was all this necessary?

Besides, when your wife is so beautiful, it’s normal for people to mistake her for a mistress.
