Elly Campbell couldn’t help but frown at the side, yet she heard William Campbell say, "Since I was a child, there’s only been one woman, right? Is it Aunt Sophie Baker? Then you should cherish her even more. I can’t let my mommy be your mistress."
He really wanted to strangle that little brat.
Elly Campbell looked at Adam Jones with his face turning livid with anger, and her mood joyfully lifted as she curved her lips, bearing the expression of a bystander enjoying a drama.
Adam Jones inadvertently glanced at her, and caught the remnant of her smile, filled with schadenfreude. She seemed even more deserving of a beating than the little brat before him.
When Elly Campbell saw Adam Jones’s gaze turn her way, the smile on her lips suddenly froze.
Adam Jones stood up in front of William Campbell, his tall figure blocking in front of Elly Campbell, his indifferent eyes narrowed slightly.
"CEO Campbell seems to be in a good mood today??"
Elly Campbell didn’t know what Adam Jones meant by that, so she casually responded, "Not bad."
"How about we have a proper talk about the matter I wanted to discuss with you that day?"
Elly Campbell obviously knew what Adam Jones was referring to, and her face suddenly changed, "There’s nothing to talk about, William is not your son."
She struggled desperately, but the words she uttered lacked any conviction.
"Right, I’m not your son."
William, on the side, chimed in very cooperatively. His good-looking eyebrows knitted together as he said, "Uncle, I told you before, I don’t want my mommy to be a mistress. You can’t become my stepfather, so stop saying I’m your son."
Little William quite liked this uncle who looked a lot like him, but the thought of his mommy becoming a mistress made him reject the idea without a second thought.
Adam Jones was furious, grinding his teeth and saying, "I’m not your stepfather, I’m your biological father!"
Little William looked at Adam Jones, a bit confused. Biological father is the same as one’s real dad, so Uncle Jones is his real dad?
William didn’t quite understand the concept of a biological father and stepfather, but as long as it was his dad, it was fine. As for that blood relationship, he didn’t care much.
"You are saying I was born to you and mommy?"
Adam Jones’s cold eyes swept over the stunned face of Elly Campbell, and he said to William, "Do you think your mommy could have given birth to you all by herself?"
Just then, the elevator reached the first floor. As the elevator doors opened and the three of them stepped out, they heard William cover his mouth in shock, looking at Elly Campbell, "Then Mommy really did become a mistress! And I became an illegitimate child!"
Usually, when she watched TV with Aunt Clark, the shows always portrayed mistresses who had illegitimate children and then took them to the child’s father’s house, driving out the father’s wife and children. Aunt Clark would always curse the mistress, saying mistresses were bad, and the illegitimate child was a bad person too and deserved to die.
Wuu~ William didn’t want to be a bad person, nor did he want his mommy to be one.
Elly Campbell and Adam Jones on the side: "..."
The son knows so much.
Looking at her son’s downcast face, Elly Campbell felt helpless. The child hadn’t been spared exposure to those kinds of family dramas often watched with Lynn Clark. She decided to let him watch less of that from now on; what was all this about?
Bending down to pick up her son, she said, "Didn’t we agree to go to the amusement park? Let’s not talk about these unimportant things."
After speaking, she glared fiercely at Adam Jones, who was also speechless beside her, and walked toward her car spot.
