Chapter 944: 944. This cheap advantage is not at all like a stranger.

The plane landed on the helipad in the Jones family’s backyard in Greece at eight o’clock the next morning.

When Adam Jones stepped off the plane, from a distance, he caught sight of an elderly person being supported by servants, standing at the courtyard entrance waiting for him.

As soon as she saw him coming, she immediately signaled the servants to help her move forward.

Perhaps still recovering from a serious illness, she walked with a faltering step, yet did not slow down, instead shuffling toward him step by step.

Adam Jones had no recollection of this elderly person, but this did not prevent him from discerning that she was indeed his grandmother.

Seeing the Old Lady stagger towards him with more haste than her legs could manage, Adam’s brow furrowed, and he quickly walked over to support her, "Grandma."

The Old Lady had long ago learned from Elly Campbell about her grandson’s memory loss, and although she knew he had only guessed her identity and did not actually remember her, upon hearing Adam calling her "Grandma,"

she couldn’t help but feel her eyes welling up with tears.

Before his return, she had prepared a great deal to say, yet now she found herself unable to utter a single word, simply clutching his hand tightly and patting it a few times to vent her overwhelming emotions.

"It’s good you’re back, good you’re back, you scoundrel, you’ve given Grandma quite the scare with your antics."

Adam Jones looked into the Old Lady’s reddened eyes and felt a kinship and admiration for her as a younger generation should feel towards an elder, which was greater than the respect he felt for Lily Bankston.

This natural feeling, even though his memory had been erased, could not erase the sensation etched in his heart.

It was just like how he had once treated Elly Campbell.

As for Lily, his respect and closeness to her were genuine, and so, even though he often found her suspicious, he hadn’t entirely dismissed her as someone unworthy of trust.

In the past few days, Elly Campbell had told him many things, including his ongoing investigation into the real cause of his father’s death over twenty years ago.

Also, the true intentions behind his biological mother’s repeated attempts to get close to him.

And so on; there were numerous matters he needed to look into, but his recent memory loss had put a delay on everything.

Yes, erased.

He spoke of erasing, not losing, as he began to suspect when he had just woken up not long ago and realized he remembered an insignificant woman.

After hearing about the past from Robert Green, he became even more convinced that his memory had been forcefully erased.

That is also why, before saying goodbye to Lily, he had deliberately acted as if he detested Elly Campbell.

Although he was uncertain of the role Lily played in all this, she was undoubtedly related to his amnesia.

This time, his rush to return to the country was to clear up what had happened, including the possibility that the scheme against him nine years ago might be connected to his current memory loss.

And now, the only clues he could think of were Lily and Sophie Baker.

"Grandma, I’m fine now, you just focus on recovering. I’m back now, and I’ll handle everything else," he said.

As he spoke, he also turned to look at Elly Campbell as she caught up with them, reaching out to drape an arm over her shoulder, and said:

"Elly has also been worn out by these recent events, I’ll take good care of her."

Elly raised an eyebrow on the side, observing how naturally he rested his hand on her shoulder, her gaze taking on a somewhat teasing gleam.

What a charmer, acting like we’re not strangers, huh?

Didn’t he forget their past?

He sure doesn’t seem like a stranger when he takes advantage of the situation.
