He put down the fishing rod and stood up, his gaze sharply fixed on Elly Campbell, his voice cold and low, "What exactly have you been hiding from me?"
Seeing that his plastic brother dared to be fierce with his wife, Adam Jones suddenly became angry, pulling Elly Campbell to his side, he said:
"Why are you yelling at my wife? If you have the guts, go ask Helen Melendy. Sulking here, lamenting the spring, who cares about you."
Adam Jones lowered his voice, his eyes clearly issuing an unhappy warning, "If Helen Melendy doesn’t want to tell you, that’s between you two. Why should my wife have to tell you?"
The tone of his voice, protecting Elly Campbell in every possible way, made her couldn’t help but purse her lips and steal a laugh, while Harry Hall, who had been scolded by him, didn’t know whether to be angry or anxious, as his complexion became even more terrifying than before.
Adam Jones didn’t even want to deal with him, people who were fierce to his wife deserved to die!
He draped his arm over Elly Campbell’s shoulder, picked up the fishing bucket and rod beside him, and walked to another spot, "Wife, let’s ignore him."
Why did she feel like their island master recently had the potential to be heading in the direction of a kindergarten kid?
And he had even learned to isolate people.
Her lips twitched involuntarily, just about to say something when she saw Harry Hall’s gaze, intently staring at the opposite shore, his face growing more and more unsightly.
Following his gaze, she saw Benjamin Thompson standing by Helen Melendy’s lounge chair, a warm, spring-time smile on his face as he talked to her, and also handed her a glass of juice.
Watching Benjamin Thompson’s attentive behavior, Elly Campbell subtly furrowed her eyebrows.
Although she didn’t know much about Benjamin Thompson, she always felt that there was something odd about him, to put it bluntly, he had no good intentions.
Just as she was about to take some action, Harry Hall moved even faster than her, tossing aside his fishing rod and jumping onto the flatboat at the edge, paddling towards the beach.
Elly Campbell watched Harry Hall’s retreating back and then looked at Benjamin Thompson, who was clearly cozying up to Helen Melendy, her eyes narrowed thoughtfully.
She had no intention of interfering with Helen Melendy’s friendships, but this Benjamin Thompson...
Perhaps because he came with Sophia Green, she instinctively categorized him as someone not to be associated with closely.
Her hand was taken by a broad, powerful palm beside her and brought to the shore, where she heard Adam Jones say:
"Don’t worry about them. Let’s fish, and tonight, I’ll make you a whole fish feast."
Elly Campbell sat down next to his seat and picked up the fishing rod that was set aside, starting to fish.
After it quieted down, Elly Campbell thought about Daisy Thompson and Sophia Green coming here, and after some thought, she said:
"Seeing Sophia Green, do you have any thoughts?"
Adam Jones had just baited the hook and placed it in the water when he heard his wife suddenly mention such an obviously feminine name, a hint of guard instantly appeared in his eyes.
Why is my wife bringing up a woman’s name out of the blue?
And who is Sophia Green?
Confused in his mind, Adam Jones naturally asked aloud, "Who is Sophia Green? Why should I have any thoughts?"
Is my wife testing me?
Adam Jones narrowed his eyes, and his dark pupils immediately exuded a few traces of displeasure.
She was rendered speechless by her island master’s question.
Not because he was feigning ignorance, but judging by the confusion in his eyes, he genuinely didn’t know who Sophia Green was?
Apart from seeing her once on William Hall’s yacht before, ten minutes ago he was about to tell someone to leave, and now he’s forgotten her?
