Chapter 518: 518. Annoyingly Unstoppable Mouth_1

"You can’t bear to part with me? Sweetie, I’ll be back in two or three days," he asked unabashedly.

As he spoke, he raised his hand to ruffle her hair, the smile in his eyes growing a bit deeper.

Elly Campbell’s face darkened in response to his flirtatious question.

Could this guy not turn every single topic into something about her not wanting to part with him, worry about him, or miss him?

She swiped away the mischievous hand resting on her head and said irritably, "Why would I not bear to part with you? I’m just concerned about the trouble that the Jones Corporation is facing."

After explaining, she immediately felt that her explanation wasn’t quite right; the man beside her would definitely take this as an opportunity to show off.

As expected, just as she finished speaking, Adam Jones’ cheerful, light laughter reached her ears, "The Jones Corporation is mine; by caring about it, you’re essentially caring about me."

As he spoke, he gently wrapped his arms around Elly Campbell, pulling her close into his embrace, his voice tinged with a trace of happiness, "Elly, thank you for worrying about me, I’m really pleased."

Elly puckered her lips indifferently inside his hug, her intent to push him away faltering when she heard his low sigh carrying a hint of subtle loneliness.

Coolly, she retorted, "Didn’t you say the Jones Corporation belongs to our son? If anyone should worry, it should be for my son. Why would I worry about you?"

Adam Jones’ lips curled into a smile, his heart warmed by the words "our son."

Remembering how Elly had initially tried to push him away but then stopped, his mood improved even further.

Burying his face in the nape of Elly’s neck like a little puppy seeking attention from its owner, he murmured muffledly,

"Elly, I can’t bear to leave you."

Elly: "..."

This beast is acting out some romance drama.

Just as Elly was about to tell him to cut out the schmaltz, their son’s na\u00EFve voice suddenly rang out, "Daddy, is Mommy going to kick you out?"

Hearing her son’s voice, Elly promptly pushed Adam away from her and, seeing his somewhat aggrieved appearance, glared at him.

Adam Jones looked down at the little brat who’d interfered with his moment, feeling indignant.

He hadn’t even had his fill of hugging his wife, and this damn kid was already cramping his style.

Little William Campbell, oblivious to having just thwarted his own father’s romantic advances, looked at Adam Jones’ frustrated expression with a hint of sympathy, asking again, "Daddy, is Mommy going to kick you out?"

"Nonsense! Why would Mommy kick Daddy out," Adam Jones emphatically denied.

"Then why did you say you couldn’t bear to leave Mommy?"

Adam Jones glanced at Elly Campbell and after flashing her an ambiguous look, he explained to his son:

"Daddy has to go on a business trip in a couple of days, and it’ll be several days before I can return home, of course I can’t bear to leave Mommy."

"So, do you not want to leave me either?"

Ha, as if!

Right now, he’d be happy to send this stinky kid to his mother-in-law’s so he could have a romantic world of two with his beloved wife; how could he possibly not want to part with him?

But he didn’t have the guts to say that in front of the lady herself, so with contrived sincerity, he said:

"Of course, both you and Mommy are Daddy’s treasures; Daddy can’t bear to leave either of you."

Elly Campbell felt goosebumps all over at the word "treasures."

With Adam Jones’ charmingly insincere mouth, what woman couldn’t he hook?

****

After William Campbell had breakfast, the family of three set off for the amusement park.

The Jones Corporation’s driver was already waiting at the entrance of the residential complex, the eye-catching limited-edition Bentley drawing the attention of everyone around.
