Chapter 997: 997, does Daddy not like William Campbell anymore?
After chatting with Uncle Li in the study for less than ten minutes, Uncle Li left the Campbell family’s home.
Elly Campbell, on the other hand, took the file that Uncle Li had given her and returned to her own bedroom.
After taking out the several sheets of paper and photographs from the document bag and looking at them seriously, her gaze froze on a particular spot in one of the photographs.
She stared at that part of the photo for a long time, as if trying hard to recall something. After a while, her gaze gradually cooled down.
Stuffing the papers and photos back into the file bag, she then went to the study connected to her bedroom.
Turning on the computer, she began planning her next steps.
Sophie Baker, Lily Bankston...
Elly Campbell leaned back in her chair, still pondering the matter of Adam Jones’s memory loss.
To grasp the true mastermind behind the scenes, it might be much easier to start with Sophie Baker than with Lily Bankston.
She fiddled around in the study for quite a while before she went downstairs for dinner.
"Mommy!"
William Campbell was very happy to see Elly Campbell. He jumped down from his great-grandfather’s side and ran towards Elly.
Elly’s other child who had also come to the Campbell Family home with mommy and his brother, excitedly wagged his fluffy tail and followed William toward Elly.
William, knowing that there was a little sister in mommy’s belly, dared not rush too fiercely. When he reached her, he stopped.
His sibling, on the other hand, did not hesitate and clambered onto Elly’s shoulder in an instant, making William cry out in alarm.
"Be careful, you have to be careful. Mommy has a baby in her belly. If you hurt your little sister, I’m going to tell Chubs!"
Elly was amused by the way her son commanded with a mixture of tenderness and sternness.
Seeing him tilt his little head back, his beautiful and delicate nose slightly wrinkled as he looked up at his sibling perched on Elly’s shoulder, he loudly declared:
"You’d better come down, or I’ll call Chubs, I’ll tell Chubs that you’re bullying his wife."
Elly: "..."
It seemed that the sibling understood what William was saying. After being reprimanded, it hesitated for a few seconds before jumping down from Elly’s shoulder.
Twisting its chubby little behind, it walked over and sat down obediently next to William.
Its pink little paw pads gently patted William’s leg as if to appease him and stop the scolding.
Elly watched the two brothers in front of her, their soft and cute appearance softening her gaze.
William was a good brother. After the younger one obediently jumped down from mommy’s shoulder, he stopped scolding it.
He reached out his chubby hands to hold his sibling in his arms and looked up at Elly.
"Mommy, I haven’t seen daddy for such a long time. Does daddy not like William anymore, so he doesn’t come to see William?"
Looking at the unease hidden in her son’s eyes, Elly’s heart tightened.
Since Adam’s accident, she had been preoccupied with reorganizing the Jones enterprise. Because she couldn’t be distracted, and also because the Old Lady was not well, she had always left William with his grandfather, letting him and his aunt take care of the boy.
Latterly, after Adam returned, she had been focused on uncovering the true culprits behind the scenes, which also meant she didn’t pay much attention to her son.
Now, as Elly saw the uncertain gaze in her son’s eyes whenever he mentioned Adam, her heart twinged with pain.
Before, without a daddy by his side, she thought he didn’t care whether he had a father or not. Only later did she realize how much the child longed for his father’s company.
Finally, when he had his daddy’s company, the little guy hadn’t had the chance to enjoy it for long before daddy disappeared again.
