Chapter 598: 598. The Humiliation Filled with the Smell of Money_1

Looking at the ceiling that had been my view for three years, lying on the bed that had held me for the same, the sudden presence of the man I had so longed for brought a sense of wistfulness to my heart.

My body was embraced from behind by Adam Jones, and the faint fragrance of his shower gel filled my nostrils.

This time, he was indeed very well-behaved, and besides holding me, he did nothing else.

Elly Campbell let him hold her, having imagined countless times what it would feel like to be embraced from behind by Adam Jones like this, and it turned out to feel just like this.

A sense of stability and peace that belonged to him alone.

Elly Campbell’s return to Boston naturally involved taking William Campbell to visit the Campbell family and see the Old Master.

The Old Master was overjoyed to see his precious great-grandson.

Through the Old Master, Elly Campbell learned that James Campbell and Melody Baker hadn’t managed to get married, and as for Sophie Baker, because of the "attention" from Jones Corporation, she was directly sentenced to ten years.

During this time, James Campbell was still not giving up and was tirelessly working for Sophie Baker’s case.

Now, Elly Campbell had absolutely no interest in the private affairs of the family of three, and naturally, she didn’t inquire further.

While still at the Campbell family residence, Elly Campbell received a call from Helen Melendy.

Helen Melendy was delighted to know she had returned to Boston and didn’t hesitate to invite her out for a meal.

Elly Campbell happily accepted. With little William Campbell unwilling to leave the private arsenal of the Great-grandfather, Elly Campbell just let him be.

She met with Helen Melendy in a large shopping mall in the city center. Compared to their last meeting, Helen Melendy had lost even more weight.

With her already tall and slim frame, and short hair, it made her look even thinner.

"How did you get so thin? Is the law firm really busy?"

I had heard that the problems at her firm had been resolved recently.

Seeing Helen Melendy subconsciously raise her hand to touch her cheek, which had somewhat caved in, she suppressed the sadness in her eyes with an indifferent wave of her hand and said,

"It’s quite busy, business is good, and besides, I’ve been on a diet recently."

Helen Melendy nonchalantly touched her abdomen as she spoke.

Elly Campbell couldn’t help but frown at her gaunt appearance, "You’re already this thin, why are you still dieting?"

"Haven’t you heard of the beauty of being skinny? As an intellectual woman standing in court every day, I have to maintain my best condition at all times. Being a bit thinner makes me look healthier and more energetic."

Elly Campbell gave her a cold stare, "Healthy? You need to eat more, and quickly."

Seeing Elly Campbell’s stern face, Helen Melendy quickly nodded in agreement, "Alright, alright, that’s why I called you out to treat me to a meal, let’s go."

She linked arms with Elly Campbell, pulling her towards the shopping mall ahead.

Noticing her pale complexion and unhealthy thinness, Elly Campbell expressed her concern,

"Are you really okay? Shouldn’t you get checked out at the hospital?"

At those words, Helen Melendy’s expression shifted slightly, and then she casually replied, "What’s there to check? I’ve lost weight from dieting, I just need to eat more to gain it back."

When Elly Campbell tried to speak, Helen Melendy quickly interrupted her, "I’ll eat, I’ll eat more, I’ll stop dieting, so stop nagging me."

Elly Campbell knew Helen Melendy was brushing her off, so she didn’t say much more. At the restaurant, she ordered a great deal of food for her, which left Helen Melendy somewhat speechless.

"Miss, as a lady of a wealthy family, I know you’re super rich, but could you not use your money to insult me in such a stinky, copper-smelling way?"
