Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 94 - 0. Little Baby Calling_1

Glancing up at Adam Jones’ eyes, which were clearly devoid of any real emotion despite his attempt to feign deep affection, she said, "President Jones, aren’t you misunderstanding something about yourself?"

"What?"

Intuitively sensing that Elly Campbell wouldn’t say anything nice, Adam Jones subconsciously furrowed his brow. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Seeing Elly suddenly curl her lips, a hint of a sly smile flashing in her eyes, she suddenly reached out and scraped the tip of his nose. In the midst of Adam’s astonishment, she said, "This kind of affectionate gesture between a couple doesn’t suit President Jones at all. Doing it doesn’t make people blush or skip a beat; instead, it comes across as pretentious and disgusting."

Adam Jones: "..."

His face darkened as he ground his teeth, glaring at the woman in front of him who was mercilessly criticizing him.

"Furthermore, if President Jones hadn’t inexplicably leaned towards me just now, I wouldn’t have been startled and stepped backward, thus I wouldn’t have been struck by that car. If you hadn’t caught me, you would have been the culprit. You should be glad that you caught me in time, rather than expecting my gratitude."

Adam Jones: "..."

This damned woman spoke so confidently, and he... actually found her arguments quite persuasive.

After saying this, Elly Campbell subtly rolled her eyes and extricated herself from Adam’s embrace, sprinting towards the bus that had just arrived at the stop in the pouring rain.

"Has the lady reconciled with the president?"

The driver, who had just parked the car to pick up the president and his wife, happened to see the lady scrape a finger across her boss’ nose, a gesture that seemed like a boyfriend doting on his girlfriend.

Uh? That seems backward.

With a dark expression, Adam Jones watched as Elly Campbell squeezed onto the bus, his face’s once softened lines tightening once again.

He must have been crazy to come back after leaving, just to listen to her mockery.

Thinking of the gesture she had performed earlier, Adam Jones felt a sudden throbbing in his heart.

The soft touch on the tip of his nose seemed to linger, and though her finger had only grazed it, it felt as though she had swept across his heart, tantalizing and tickling it.

Thinking back on the mischievous glint in her eyes as she spoke, he suddenly let out a light chuckle, "So you’ve learned to be cheeky."

The corners of his lips couldn’t help but curve upwards, his tone carrying a slight hint of affection.

Elly Campbell had no idea where this bus was headed; she just wanted to get away from Adam Jones and boarded the first bus she saw. Once she saw the bus route, she realized it was going in a completely different direction from her destination.

Pulling out some coins from her pocket, she paid the fare and only got off after the bus had passed two more stops. By then, the rain had ceased, and there were fewer people hailing cabs. Before long, she managed to catch a ride and hurried home.

After Elly Campbell left, Adam Jones didn’t go back to the hospital to see Lily Jones but decided to head home first.

Midway through the drive, the cellphone in the car suddenly rang.

He instinctively reached out to answer the call, only to find out that it wasn’t his phone ringing.

It was then that his gaze caught the corner of the seat, where a phone screen was flickering on and off.

Elly Campbell’s phone?

Picking the phone up, the words that danced on the screen caused Adam Jones’ eyes to instantly darken.

"My Dearest Baby?"

He gritted his teeth as he read the words aloud, a chill enveloping him instantly.

He had heard Elly Campbell mention "baby" several times and was no stranger to this person; however, he hadn’t expected to bump into them like this.
