Chapter 778: 778. Can’t control my legs_1
She instinctively raised her hand to touch the area under her nose, which was dry, and there was no sign of a nosebleed. She quietly let out a sigh of relief.
Her clearly intentional movement finally made Adam burst into laughter.
He leaned down and pecked Elly’s lips quickly. "Wife, I’ve found that you’re becoming cuter by the day."
Blushing even redder at his teasing, Elly looked at the smile that suddenly appeared on Adam’s face and, with a bit of annoyance, curved her lips into a tender smile as she slowly approached him.
For a moment, Adam was so enchanted by his wife’s smile that he was slightly dazed. The next second, a sharp pain shot through the top of his foot; his wife was stepping on it with absolutely no mercy.
"Wife..."
"Husband, I’ve found that you’re getting cuter by the day as well."
"..."
Once the Easter holiday was over, Elly and the others set off to leave Jones Island, especially since Adam had injuries and it wasn’t good for him to stay out for too long.
They began their journey on the third day after the holiday.
On Jones Island, there was a large area specifically set aside for visitors to park their private planes. As the Jones Family was boarding their plane, Alva Turnbaugh’s plane just happened to land on the tarmac at the same time.
Douglas’s father, Alva Turnbaugh, and mother, Lily Lewis, hurried down from their plane, and the two parties ran into each other head-on.
At this moment, when Alva Turnbaugh saw Adam, his expression darkened instantly, clearly very dissatisfied and angry about Adam’s act of castrating his son.
Even though he didn’t care about that son, everyone knew that Douglas was his only child.
As a construction magnate, everyone would usually show him some respect, but this young man, who commanded attention from everyone despite his age, had been in cooperation with him for over a decade. Yet, without any consideration for their relationship, he had castrated his son.
He wasn’t short of sons, so even if this son had been disabled by Adam, he didn’t care, but what he did care about was his reputation.
Adam’s disregard when dealing with his son was clearly a slap in his face.
But just as Adam had said before, Alva Turnbaugh didn’t care about Douglas, and he wouldn’t openly oppose the Jones Corporation for the sake of Douglas. It was an ungrateful task that Alva Turnbaugh wouldn’t undertake, let alone for a worthless son like Douglas.
So, even though he was resentful, he merely walked up to Adam with a cold face and said:
"President Jones has quite the heavy hand—is this your way of ensuring that our Turnbaugh family is left without an heir?"
Hearing this, Adam chuckled lightly. "If the Young Master can’t control his own legs, as a matter of respect for Mr. Turnbaugh, I naturally had to lend a hand."
His calm demeanor remained untouched by Alva’s sarcastic words.
On the other hand, Lily Lewis, who was by his side and already had red, tearful eyes from her son’s fate, looked at the Jones couple with such resentment that she seemed like she wanted to tear them to pieces.
