Chapter 513: 513. Resume marriage for the first time

"Is that so?"

William Campbell appeared somewhat skeptical.

And when Elly Campbell heard Adam Jones’s shameless explanation, she wished she could kick him down the stairs.

"Of course."

Adam Jones placed his hand on Elly Campbell’s shoulder, smiling harmlessly, "The more viciously Mommy hits Daddy, the more it proves she loves Daddy."

Although he was speaking to William Campbell, his gaze never left Elly Campbell’s face, the amusement in his eyes slowly growing.

"Right, Elly?"

Elly Campbell clenched her teeth as she looked at the triumphant smile in Adam Jones’s eyes, and after a long moment, the corners of her lips lifted slightly, "It seems you really want to be beaten to death."

Listeing to the way his wife gritted her teeth, a deeper smile appeared in Adam Jones’s eyes, and before she could speak, William Campbell had already reasoned out loud from his daddy’s explanation:

"So if Mommy beats Daddy to death, does it mean Mommy loves Daddy to death?"

Elly Campbell: "..."

Adam Jones: "..."

Hearing his son naively curse him like that, the corners of Adam Jones’s lips twitched subtly.

He wanted to object but realized his son’s argument seemed to make quite a bit of sense.

Seeing Adam Jones caught off guard by their son, Elly Campbell’s mood, which had been full of gritted teeth, relaxed considerably.

This "wild mare" was so unruly that not even a hundred thousand sweat-soaked thoroughbreds could pull him back—it was only their son who could tame the big wild waves a little.

Observing the hidden amusement in Elly Campbell’s eyes, Adam Jones was startled for a moment before he let out a light laugh.

Well, if it made his wife happy for a little while, then being cursed by this little rascal was worth it.

Having resigned himself to this, his arms were suddenly tightly embraced by his beloved son, "Although I hope Mommy loves Daddy very much, I still don’t want Daddy to be beaten to death by Mommy, so maybe Mommy could love Daddy a little less."

The little guy blinked up at Elly Campbell, his large, round, black pupils filled with intense hope.

It left Elly Campbell in a bind, unsure whether to agree or not.

She ignored William Campbell’s statement, rubbed his small head, and said, "Get up and go wash your face and brush your teeth."

"Okay."

Knowing his daddy and mommy were just playing around and not fighting, little William Campbell felt relieved, nodded his head, and turned to head back to his bedroom to wash up.

After William Campbell left, Adam Jones turned to Elly Campbell beside him, his eyes tinted with complicated emotions.

He turned her body to face him directly, a serious expression on his face mixed with nervousness, even his hands resting on Elly Campbell’s shoulders were breaking out in a slight sweat.

"Elly, these past few days, I’ve been thinking about something..."

He looked at Elly Campbell, pursed his lips slightly, his nervousness seeming to intensify.

"What is it?"

Elly Campbell watched him, and seeing his serious expression, she had a vague idea of what he was about to say.

"Let’s remarry."

It was a simple sentence, but it took all the courage Adam Jones had accumulated over his lifetime to say it.

Even though he had long yearned for this, the moment he knew how despicable and foolish he had been in the past, he realized he had no right to propose such a thing.

But he could never let her go in this lifetime; without her, it would only mean loneliness and growing old alone. He wanted her and longed to give her the legitimate status of Mrs. Jones.

He wanted everyone to look up to his woman, his wife, the way they looked up to him, not to subject her to malicious speculation and slander.
