She never expected Adam Jones to react this way; his indulging attitude was simply incurable.
Seeing Elly Campbell smugly shaking her head as if boasting about a bargain, she said:
"Unsatisfying, he’s too weak, no fun at all."
The expressions on Sophia Green and Douglas Turnbaugh’s faces instantly cracked.
After being disgusted by Sophia Green and Douglas Turnbaugh, Elly Campbell didn’t want to stay any longer and proposed to leave.
As soon as Adam saw Douglas’s hand on Elly’s waist, he barely controlled his urge to completely destroy that hand.
But with so many people around, even if he wanted to teach Douglas a lesson, he didn’t want his wife to be watched by everyone, so he pushed down the fire in his heart and nodded in agreement.
Teaching Douglas a lesson, he had plenty of means and opportunities, whether the Turnbaugh family could endure it or not.
But while Elly was willing to let it go, Douglas was not content.
Being humiliated in public by a woman was utterly unacceptable for someone who had grown up in a sense of superiority.
Seeing Adam ready to leave with Elly, Douglas approached resentfully and accused:
"President Jones, your woman hit someone, and you’re just going to let it slide?"
Adam’s cold gaze swept over him, the warmth in his eyes for his wife replaced by eternal snow in an instant.
"You’re overthinking, it won’t just be left as it is."
Douglas was frightened by the silent warning in Adam’s eyes.
He always felt that Adam’s words were not directed at his wife, but at himself.
"Then... then what do you plan to do?"
He wanted to ask Adam how he intended to deal with his wife, but he had no confidence when he asked the question.
Seeing Adam look down at Elly by his side, he said, "You tell me, how do you want to deal with it to be satisfied?"
Elly frowned, not hiding the disgust on her face, and said, "I don’t want to see them at all right now."
"Good, then let them leave the island."
Adam’s matter-of-fact tone made Douglas laugh out of anger, while Sophia’s face turned pale instantaneously, her face crawling with jealousy and unwillingness.
Seeing Adam casting a disdainful glance at Douglas and Sophia, he said:
"Will you leave on your own, or shall I have the security escort you out?"
The island’s visitors were all rich people from home and abroad, many of whom knew each other in this circle.
Douglas’s father was a construction magnate, known by many, and consequently, Douglas, as the son of a construction magnate, was also well-known.
If people found out that the son of a construction magnate was chased away from the island, how would he ever mix in the circle of rich young masters again?
His face showed a trace of anger, but he dared not provoke Adam too much, simply saying:
"President Jones, you’re being unreasonable. Clearly, your woman hit someone, and you don’t make her apologize; instead, you wildly claim to kick us out. That’s a joke."
He hadn’t laughed at him yet for his wildly unreasonable eviction.
This island of over a million hectares wasn’t owned by Adam Jones—what was he, to casually drive the tourists away?
The Jones family might be powerful, and Adam might be rich, but it was impossible for him to buy such an island. Although he didn’t know the exact market price, he was aware that the island and its facilities would cost at least tens of billions at the very least.
