Chapter 705: 705. She immediately hooked up with another man afterwards_1

As his voice faded, he swiftly spun the fishing line in his hand and a large fish was pulled up from the water.

"This fish is huge!"

Elly Campbell exclaimed excitedly. It was rare for Adam Jones to see Elly exhibit such unguarded joy, and his mood was instantly infected by hers.

With a thought, he wrapped an arm around her shoulder, leaned down to kiss her on the lips, and burst into loud laughter in response to the slight annoyance in Elly’s eyes—

"That’s a reward for the husband."

Elly gave him an eye roll and then pulled the fishing line, removing the fish from the hook.

The overwhelming fishy smell caused a wave of nausea to rise in Elly’s stomach. She furrowed her brows and put the fish into the bucket.

With the fishy smell gone, the bout of nausea was quickly suppressed.

Elly felt a bit off but nothing serious. She didn’t plan to visit the hospital on Lake Island to prevent someone close from making a fuss, and also to avoid dampening the mood of other tourists.

There were many leisure and entertainment facilities on the island. It wasn’t just Elly and another person on this artificial island designed for fishing.

Not far from them, on another artificial island, quite a few people were fishing or feeding the fish. Among the crowd, a pair of eyes filled with jealousy and envy was intently fixed on the man and woman playfully teasing each other on Lake Island.

Underneath the jealousy, they seethed with bitterness.

Elly Campbell had no idea that at this moment, someone was watching her and her husband intently. After fishing a few more fish with Adam Jones, they headed back to shore.

"Wow, Helen Melendy, you really move fast. You just broke up with me and now you’re already hooking up with another man."

Helen Melendy had just been about to brush off Benjamin Thompson when she saw Harry Hall approaching her with a dark face.

She was wondering why Harry had suddenly soured when he came up to her and blurted out such a remark.

"We’re broken up, it’s none of your business who I hook up with or how many men I see. What are you to me that you feel you can ask?"

Helen Melendy raised her eyebrows, defiant in the face of the coldness seeping from Harry Hall’s eyes, though a hint of fear subtly crept into her heart.

"Helen Melendy!"

Harry Hall, with a dark expression, stepped forward and yanked Helen to his side, his gaze sharply sweeping over to Benjamin Thompson, who was showing signs of distress, and said:

"You can leave now."

Benjamin Thompson had some status in the entertainment industry, but he was almost speechless before the real elites.

To say nothing of the young master of the Hall Family, even someone like Douglas Turnbaugh would have needed to give way, let alone dare to object in front of Harry Hall.

It just never occurred to him that the girl who caught his eye would have a connection with a person like Harry Hall.

Helen Melendy had been about to send Benjamin Thompson away, but Harry Hall’s presumptuous behavior in dismissing him on her behalf angered her.

Struggling fiercely against the grip Harry Hall had on her hand, Helen realized she couldn’t break free. Seeing Benjamin Thompson about to leave, she said:

"Why are you leaving? I’m not very close with this person. He tells you to go, and you go?"

Benjamin Thompson was somewhat at a loss for words. His decision to leave had nothing to do with how well she knew Harry Hall.

He simply didn’t want to provoke someone he shouldn’t.

Benjamin Thompson’s gaze meaningfully shifted to Harry Hall’s face.
