Chapter 611: 611. My lady is my sky_1

Leanne Richards’ attempt at stirring up trouble was clear to him, but he kept a steady expression, simply gazing at Elly Campbell with an indulgent look, and laughed,

"My wife is my sky. If she wants to climb over my head, then let her."

Elly Campbell, who was pondering a friend’s major life decision: "..."

Leanne Richards, whose attempt to sow discord failed: "..."

Shannon Richards, who was hoping for a marital spat: "..."

The onlookers: "..."

This dog food is really tasty.

Woof woof! Woof woof woof! Woof woof woof woof!

"As for Aunt Hall, your own household is in chaos, so please spare yourself the trouble of interfering with my wife."

In Leanne Richards’ view, since she was Adam Jones’ elder, it was somewhat inappropriate for him to talk to her in such a manner.

Her face immediately darkened as she said, "Adam, how can you speak to your elder like this? Harry and you are brothers, and I am your senior. Is this the way you talk to your elders??"

The bystanders couldn’t help but purse their lips in their minds, complaining that she started pressing her senior status because she couldn’t win the argument. Pah!

What President Jones said wasn’t wrong—she couldn’t even manage her household affairs, so what right did she have to intrude into someone else’s home, to the point of bossing around someone else’s wife?

That’s someone else’s wife, and he was perfectly willing to spoil and indulge her himself. What business was it of any outsider?

As soon as Leanne Richards had finished speaking, she saw Adam Jones’ lips curl, and the last bit of warmth in his eyes slowly receded.

The pupils of his dark eyes narrowed slightly, which frightened Leanne so much that her heart gave a violent quiver.

"Aunt Hall, just because I consider Harry my brother doesn’t mean I have to regard you as my own mother."

He extended an arm to wrap around Elly Campbell’s shoulders, his protective stance quite evident.

"You’ve bullied my wife today, and I’ll let it slide in consideration of Harry’s feelings. Next time you come across her, you’d do well to walk around her. If you really want to bully her, then think twice about your own status before you do."

What Adam Jones said was blunt enough.

Especially, this twist of truth and falsehood infuriated Leanne so much she almost spurted blood from her throat.

He accused her of bullying his wife—was he blind?

From start to finish, it was his own sharp-tongued wife who ridiculed and mocked her, yet in Jones’ mouth, it had somehow become her bullying her wife.

Even Elly Campbell felt somewhat awkward upon hearing Adam Jones’ twist of truth and falsehood, and she didn’t dare to meet the eyes of so many people.

Leanne Richards was fuming with pains in her chest, and then, seeing Adam Jones’ self-satisfied demeanor, she sneered,

"Thinking about status? What status? As the lawful wife and Family Matriarch of the Hall Family, do I rank lower than your Young Miss of the Jones Family? Our Hall Clan is certainly no less than the Jones."

Upon hearing this, Adam Jones raised an eyebrow and laughed.

"Whether it’s the Jones Corporation or the Jones Family, it’s my wife who calls the shots, but the Hall Family... Can you do the same?"

With one sentence, he utterly defeated Leanne Richards.

Every word Adam Jones said was a jab at Leanne’s vulnerabilities.

To put it nicely, Leanne was the Hall Family Matriarch, but her only noteworthy accomplishments were being William Hall’s lawful wife and Harry’s mother.

If it weren’t for her son Harry in the Hall Family, her position as Family Matriarch would likely have been snatched away by that piano-playing wench long ago.

At present in the Hall Family, it was William Hall who made the decisions; when did it become her turn?

Adam Jones was simply a devil, his words piercing like daggers, only short of trampling on her face with his foot.
