Chapter 929: 929. Don’t let Adam know

Although Sophie Baker really did not seem like someone who would risk her life for the CEO, she was indeed brutally beaten at that time, without any pretense of fakery.

Thinking of this, Robert Green immediately understood the meaning behind Elly Campbell’s words.

"Madam, are you saying that only by using oneself as bait, can one deceive the CEO?"

Elly Campbell nodded, "Your boss isn’t foolish. If Sophie hadn’t risked her life back then, could she have deceived your boss?"

"Although this method is somewhat risky, with the medical team behind Jones, as long as she isn’t beaten to death, the benefits she could get from Adam after being rescued would also make it very worthwhile for her to have taken the risk."

Seeing Robert’s bewildered face, Elly laughed, "I tend to have a darker mindset, so I always think of suspicious people in a darker light."

Upon hearing this, Robert hurriedly shook his head, "No, madam, it’s normal for you to think this way."

Elly Campbell paid no attention to Robert’s thoughts and continued, "Of course, Aunt Lily can’t be compared with Sophie. All of this is just my speculation, but..."

She paused, chose her words carefully, and continued,

"If Adam hadn’t caught her in time, even if she had fallen, there was a water stream below, and it’s likely she wouldn’t have been harmed."

Robert hurriedly shook his head again, "No, madam, it’s normal for you to think that way."

Elly Campbell ignored Robert’s thoughts again and resumed, "Of course, Aunt Lily cannot be compared to Sophie. All of this is merely my speculation, but..."

She paused again, chose her words carefully, and continued,

"If Adam hadn’t caught her in time, even if she had fallen, there was a water stream below, and she probably wouldn’t have been harmed."

Although these words were somewhat unkind, they were indeed true.

After hearing this, Robert fell silent.

After a while, he said, "So what should we do next?"

Although Robert knew how significant Lily Bankston was to the CEO, Madam’s significance to the CEO was no less than that of Lily Bankston.

Moreover, personally, he knew more about Madam than about Lily Bankston.

Just like this time, Madam knew that the CEO had given all his assets to her. She could have just walked away without a second word, without having to clean up the mess at Jones.

Just from this point, he chose to trust Madam a bit more.

"Since we can’t find anything, either we are overthinking, or Lily is more cautious and more profound than we thought. It’s always right to be as cautious as we can."

"Yes, madam."

"Also..."

Elly Campbell paused, her brow suddenly twisted, "Don’t let Adam know about this for now."

Now, their island lord remembers nothing but Sophie and Lily.

Sophie could be set aside. Although he remembers Sophie, there wasn’t any eagerness on his face to see Sophie, but Lily was different.

His attitude toward Lily was very gentle.

So, once he knows she is investigating Lily, who knows if he might reveal any flaws in front of Lily.

After all, he is now just a "child" who is completely unfamiliar with this world.

Robert understood the concern in Elly’s tone and didn’t ask further, merely nodding his head.

Adam Jones’s injuries were basically no problem now; when Elly Campbell went to the hospital again, Adam Jones had just finished the last check of his comprehensive physical examination.
