Chapter 949: 949. Almost died for love

She had wanted to scold him fiercely, just like before, but when she saw the deep affection and indulgence in his eyes, identical to what she had seen before he lost his memory, Elly Campbell couldn’t bring herself to do it.

The sourness she had managed to conceal in the depths of her eyes welled up uncontrollably; her lips quivered, and then, like a little girl who had been wronged, she hooked her arms around his neck, burying her face in his embrace.

"I missed you so much! I nearly died of a broken heart."

She didn’t tell anyone that, although she had upheld the belief in Adam Jones’s survival in front of others, as days passed without any word from him, her despair was magnified infinitely every night.

It grew to the point where she felt she could not go on and wanted to follow him in death.

No one knew that, one night, she was on the verge of taking action when Gloria frantically knocked on her door because the Old Lady had suddenly collapsed during the night, and it was only then that she abruptly came to her senses.

If she died, her suffering would end, and she would have to bear no more pain.

But if she were to die, the pain her loved ones would have to endure would be far greater than her own.

What about William Campbell?

What about those family members who loved her deeply, and what about the Old Lady?

And the child in her womb, was it supposed to die with her?

Especially the Old Lady, who had lost her son and grandson; if she too left her behind, would the Old Lady still have the will to live?

At that moment, Elly Campbell realized how horrendous and selfish the thought of ending her own life was.

It was since that day that, whenever the depth of night made her miss him to the point of breaking, she would think of all the people around her, clench her teeth, and somehow make it through.

Feeling the warmth of the embrace before her, Elly Campbell was exceedingly grateful that she had persevered, and even more so that he had come back.

Therefore, no matter how difficult the road ahead, she would not easily leave Adam Jones’s side.

When Adam Jones heard the words "died of a broken heart," his heart clenched violently. Even though she was speaking lightly now, he could still feel the current of her inner emotions.

He could imagine how much pain she must have been through, and how tough it must have been for her to grit her teeth and get through that period.

"I’m sorry, it won’t happen again."

The news of Adam Jones’s accidental disappearance at sea had shocked both domestic and foreign media. Therefore, since his disappearance, many journalists had been staking out at the Jones Corporation and the Jones Family residence.

They originally held a futile hope, that if Adam Jones really did return, they could secure an exclusive scoop.

But due to stringent security and privacy systems at the Jones residence, the media couldn’t obtain much of use.

At the same time, with Adam having been missing for over a month, it seemed likely that if he were found, it would most likely be his dead body.

So, while some reporters hung around the Jones Corporation entrance initially hoping for luck, most had left, leaving only a few, mostly insignificant interns from various newspapers.

Despite this, when the Jones Family car appeared at the entrance of the Jones Corporation building, the young reporters who expected to leave empty-handed were overcome with emotion when they saw the tall and erect man stepping out of the car.

After being missing for more than a month, the head of the Jones conglomerate made a powerful return, and it was these insignificant "small fry" reporters who managed to capture it. Excitedly taking photos, their hands shook.
