Chapter 695: 695. Feel better now_1

Sophia Green looked as if she had only just noticed Adam Jones, her face showing a timely hint of surprise. She hurriedly greeted him, then, without making a sound, shot a glance at Elly Campbell, bit her lower lip, and moved aside with a wronged expression.

She wasn’t calling him "Brother Adam" now? So, was that title just meant to provoke her?

Elly Campbell watched Sophia Green and moved her eyebrows slightly.

Adam Jones paid her no mind; he didn’t even let his gaze linger on Sophia Green for half a moment, instead looking down at the woman in his arms who was "arrogantly domineering," and said in a deep voice,

"I just went to fish, and you’re already causing trouble?"

Originally, he had planned to personally catch a few big fish to prepare a grand fish feast for his wife, but not long after he had sat down, he saw that young pretty boy come over and say something to his wife.

Since they were some distance apart, he naturally didn’t know what the two had talked about, but the pretty boy was behaving properly, so he didn’t interfere.

However, just a few minutes later, he saw Alva Turnbaugh’s son daring to lay hands on his wife’s waist, and he couldn’t sit still anymore.

Just as he stood up, he saw Douglas Turnbaugh being kicked to the ground by his wife, which eased his anger somewhat, and he hurried back from Lake Island.

Sophia Green, standing to the side, although not able to detect the anger in Adam Jones’s question, clearly sensed that he was also annoyed that Elly Campbell had caused trouble for him.

Especially since Elly Campbell had hit the son of a construction magnate, and the Turnbaugh and Jones families had always had good relations, she didn’t believe that Adam Jones would let his wife run wild.

Sophia Green lowered her eyes, and no one could see the schadenfreude and eagerness for a spectacle in her gaze.

She was somewhat impatient to see that cheap woman, Elly Campbell, being publicly disciplined by Adam Jones.

"President Jones, you really did marry well, even daring to strike Young Master Turnbaugh. Who knows what other actions detrimental to the Jones Family she might take in the future. If you don’t discipline her properly now, be careful of family misfortune in the future."

Douglas Turnbaugh, seeing Adam Jones’s return, shared the same thoughts as Sophia Green. He was convinced that Adam Jones would surely teach this little cheap woman a lesson, and he was curious to see how she would continue to be arrogant.

But as he finished speaking, he saw Adam’s unfathomably deep gaze turn coldly toward him, the chill and sharpness in his eyes making Douglas’s heart tremble violently, and he quickly averted his gaze from meeting Adam’s.

Although he was acquainted with Adam Jones, this was the first time he had interacted so directly with him, and he had truly been frightened by Adam’s imposing glare.

After giving Douglas Turnbaugh a glance, Adam Jones’s gaze returned to Elly Campbell’s face, and he asked softly, "Did you hit him?"

Hearing Adam Jones’s question, Sophia Green couldn’t help but excitedly await Elly Campbell being taken to task.

Expecting Elly Campbell to at least offer some explanation, she saw that Elly Campbell, without a second word, nodded her head confidently.

Sophia Green looked at Elly Campbell’s demeanor and sneered inside.

She really was overly confident, thinking Douglas Turnbaugh was a nobody and that Adam Jones would allow her to do whatever she pleased? Fool!

Just as Sophia Green was scoffing at Elly Campbell inwardly, she heard Adam Jones ask,

"Do you feel better now?"

Sophia Green, who had been taking delight in Elly Campbell’s anticipated scolding, had her face freeze the moment she heard Adam’s words.

When she suddenly raised her eyes and saw the tenderness welling up in Adam Jones’s, disbelief filled Sophia Green’s eyes.
