Chapter 885: 885. Stay with him for a lifetime

Adam Jones had been in Boston for two days when he indeed received news that Jacob Clark had been found.

However, by the time they found Jacob, he was already dead in his apartment, foaming at the mouth. By the time he was taken to the hospital, it was too late.

The autopsy showed that he died of a drug overdose.

When Adam got the news, his face turned terrifyingly grim, with a chill in his eyes that seemed to permeate the air.

His people had just found out that Jacob was alive, and the next thing they knew, he was discovered dead from a drug overdose. What a coincidence.

Adam didn’t believe it, and Lily Bankston didn’t either, but with Jacob’s death, the clue Adam had just discovered was lost again.

Seeing the grim look on his face, Lily Bankston tried to console him:

"Take your time, there will definitely be other clues. Whoever could kill your father is no simple character. We’ve waited over twenty years; it doesn’t hurt to wait a little longer. Start with Jacob’s death and investigate slowly."

"I’m more worried about you. If they could kill your father, they’ll surely try to harm you. You must be careful."

Lily Bankston looked at Adam with unequivocal concern in her eyes.

Not wanting Lily to worry too much, Adam nodded reassuringly:

"I’ll be careful, don’t worry about me."

He glanced at his watch and said, "I need to return to my country now. I’ll come to visit you next time."

"Why the rush? Now that you’re here, why not stay a few more days?"

Seeing Adam’s lips curl into a soft, indulgent smile, his eyes even more gentle and affectionate than when facing Lily, and with an unmistakable spoiling tone.

"My wife is waiting for me at home."

Lily was momentarily stunned, then teased with a smile, "That’s true, Aunt Lily isn’t needed now that you have a wife."

Adam didn’t deny it and smiled openly, then listened to Lily say:

"Aunt Lily feels relieved seeing you now, happily married with a wife and a son. Your father would definitely be happy too. When you have time, bring your wife to the United States to visit me."

"I will, take care of yourself."

Adam said, eagerly walking towards the door. After a few steps, he seemed to remember something and stopped. He turned back to Lily and said:

"Dad has been dead for over twenty years. You should seek your own happiness instead of living your life devoted to my father."

Adam was well aware that Lily harbored love for his father, Henry Jones.

When he was young, he didn’t understand, just realizing that this kind aunt took on the role of a mother, caring for him and his sister selflessly, thinking she was a very good person.

As he grew older and half-understood the concept of love, he suddenly realized why this woman was willing to look after him and his sister for so many years.

Because she loved his father.

Lily was taken aback by Adam’s sudden remark, and after a moment, she smiled helplessly.

"I’d like that too, but I haven’t met anyone who attracts me the way your father did, so I can only spend my life devoted to him alone."

She didn’t hide her feelings for Henry Jones in front of Adam, instead she openly admitted it.

Adam wanted to persuade her further, but seeing the resolute look in the depths of her eyes, all his words of persuasion lodged in his throat, unsaid.

Feelings are such that unless you’re the person involved, no one can truly empathize.
