Chapter 907: 907. Second Spring
Elly Campbell held the document in her hand; the amount written inside was indeed from the sale of her Campbell shares.
Originally she intended to invest all of this money into Brayman’s technological research and development.
That afternoon, she had considered using the money to secure the Jones corporation first, but she had no idea how to broach the subject.
As a result, her mother took the initiative to approach her, even meticulously preparing the financing plan, so she didn’t need to worry about it anymore.
"Mom."
Her eyes welled up with tears as she buried her face in Jenna Clark’s embrace.
She disliked crying in front of others, not wanting to bring others down with her, yet at this moment, she couldn’t hold back.
Her eyes were instantly rimmed with moisture.
Jenna held her, patting her back in a way that soothed her like a child, saying:
"Mom doesn’t have much money, but this money is yours, and so is Brayman. Use it however you want; Mom won’t interfere. If you need Mom’s help with anything, just ask. Don’t be shy—after all, I only have one daughter. If I don’t help you, who will I help?"
Elly quietly nodded in her embrace, and after a long while, Jenna heard her say:
"I used to think about you remarrying, giving me a brother or sister or something. Now I don’t want that. I just want Mom to be good to me alone."
Jenna was momentarily stunned by her childishly frank words, then playfully reprimanded by patting her on the back.
"Mom is old enough to be a grandmother now. Where would I find you a sibling? Keep teasing Mom, and be careful, or I might not look after you anymore."
Elly still buried her face in her mother’s embrace, gently wiping away the tears from the corner of her eyes, and whispered:
"Mom, what do you think of Professor Ford?"
"Professor Ford? Jamuna Ford?"
Jenna looked at Elly with a puzzled expression, "Why bring him up all of a sudden?"
Elly lifted her head from her mother’s chest, hesitated for a moment, then pursed her lips and spoke softly:
"Haven’t you noticed that Professor Ford has a little something for you?"
As the words fell, her head was poked hard by Jenna, who said:
"It seems you’re not too busy lately, having the time to play matchmaker. Professor Ford is a respectable scientist and many young women wish to marry him. Why would you want your twice-married mother to meddle with him?"
"Young women wanting to marry him is their business, and who Professor Ford wishes to marry is his own affair."
Although that day she had a talk with Adam Jones and felt she shouldn’t meddle in her mother’s and Professor Ford’s affairs too rashly, fearing Professor Ford might be another James Campbell.
But after much thought, Elly felt that it would truly be a pity if they missed out on Professor Ford.
Her mother never considered remarriage, let alone covet a man as outstanding as him, so even if Professor Ford was pining away in unrequited love, her mother might never notice.
She still thought it was merely the reverence of a junior toward a senior.
But she failed to consider why Jamuna Ford, who wasn’t just any senior, did not show such warmth toward others.
Elly didn’t dare to be too explicit, just giving a slight hint; if Jamuna Ford really turned out to be another James Campbell, she would never let her mother marry him.
Jenna truly didn’t take Elly’s words to heart. Moreover, even if she really entertained the thought of remarriage, she wouldn’t dream of aspiring to someone like Jamuna Ford.
