Chapter 586: 586. The woman in the magazine_1

Elly Campbell pointed to the page she was flipping through and said, "I’ve noticed that you and Mrs. Green bear a slight resemblance to each other."

She had originally just made a joke, after all, there were many people in the world who looked alike but had no relation.

But then, when Adam Jones caught sight of that magazine page, his expression suddenly turned icy and terrifying.

Elly Campbell was stunned for a moment before, in the next second, Adam Jones had taken the magazine from her hand, "What’s so interesting about these gossip magazines, are they more attractive than your husband?"

Casually tossing the magazine into the trash bin, he turned Elly Campbell’s face toward himself and said:

"If you’re going to look, look at your husband."

Elly Campbell’s gaze quietly rested on Adam Jones’s face, as usual, handsome. The chill that had just crept into his eyes had already vanished, almost convincing Elly Campbell that she had been seeing things.

However, there was no time for Elly Campbell to think more about it, as Adam Jones held her tightly in his embrace, with a bit too much strength.

"Elly, thank you for accompanying me to see Grandma."

Upon hearing this, Elly Campbell’s brow furrowed slightly, feeling that the strength Adam Jones held her with was a bit too tight, but naturally, she didn’t attempt to struggle and let him hold her.

"Lily Jones and I were brought up solely by Grandma since we were young. Besides you and William Campbell, Grandma is the most important person in this world to me, thank you for valuing her as much as I do."

Elly Campbell knew of Adam Jones’s typically aloof nature, which seldom lent itself to expressing such feelings. The fact that he was now articulating his thoughts to her clearly illustrated how much he cared and valued their grandmother.

Listening to the anxiety and heaviness in his tone, Elly Campbell felt a complex emotion in her heart.

Raising her hand, she gently patted his back, but her voice deliberately held a bit of reproach, "Didn’t you say you wanted to remarry me? Once we remarry, I’ll be the Young Miss of the Jones family; it’s only proper for me to visit the Old Lady, what’s there to thank me for?"

Her tone was firm, yet she heard Adam Jones laughing softly.

"You’re right, there’s nothing to be thankful for," he said.

He moved away from her shoulder and bent down to kiss her lips lightly, "But I’m still very happy you could accompany me back."

He put his arm around Elly Campbell’s shoulders, sat back on the sofa, and locked his eyes onto hers, his expression slightly tense:

"Before coming back to the country, I was constantly thinking, by revealing our relationship without your consent, would you blame me, or, by not disclosing our relationship, watching you and William Campbell being slandered online, enduring such grievances without a word from me, would you resent me for that?"

"But, Elly, I don’t regret revealing our relationship at all. As a husband and father, I can’t just watch you and our son suffer such indignities."

As he spoke, the strength of his embrace increased slightly, his deep voice carrying a muffled emotion, "Even if you get angry with me, I had to disclose it."

After listening to all he had to say, Elly Campbell didn’t think about how he had specially registered an account and reposted that tweet, nor about the many thoughts he had before doing so.

After listening to him, she was silent for a while before she finally began to speak slowly:

"There’s nothing worth getting angry about, I don’t want my son to always be criticized under the stigma of being illegitimate."

William Campbell looked carefree on the outside but was actually quite sensitive.

The people at the kindergarten had been intimidated by Adam Jones and dared not say anything further, but what about others.
