Finally, after much persuasion, Elly Campbell successfully convinced Adam Jones to go back to work at the company.
Although working from home was the same as working at the office, it still caused some unnecessary trouble for the company’s department leaders and affected efficiency.
Although Adam agreed to Elly not to work from home, he still proposed various conditions.
For instance, he must have someone accompany him whenever he went out, and if he were to go shopping, he either had to bring a servant or call her to join him.
In the end, Elly was exasperated but still nodded in agreement, and only then was Adam satisfied, dutifully carrying the stack of documents Robert Green had sent over to the company.
Since his wife was expecting their second child, CEO Jones worked even harder, insisting that only by working hard to earn money could he provide a good life for his wife and children.
Even though his current wealth could support a football team’s worth of children for several generations, he still made sure to come home on time every day to be with his wife and children.
Compared to Elly, the pregnant mother, Adam, the father, was even more attentive.
Every day, in addition to coming home on time, he would read a book titled "How to be a Qualified Pregnant Mom" whenever he had the chance, almost devouring the book completely.
Watching this, Elly’s mouth twitched uncontrollably, almost making her wonder if it was Island Master Jones who was pregnant, not her.
That day, just as Adam had finished his work and was preparing to leave the office to accompany his wife and children, Robert Green knocked on the door and entered, looking rather urgent.
"President, this is the report sent back by those we dispatched to search for Mr. Jones’ co-pilot from that year."
The "Mr. Jones" Robert Green referred to was Adam’s father, Henry Jones.
Years ago, Henry’s plane was flying back from Southeast Asia and suddenly changed course to Australia, only to crash in the Pacific Ocean.
After Adam took control of Jones Corporation, he began to re-investigate the incident from that year and subsequently uncovered some suspicions.
For example, the crash of Henry’s plane was not an accident, but rather a result of sabotage.
At that time, the black box of the plane, along with the pilot, could not be found.
Over the years, Adam had never given up investigating the matter, and during this time, they had been receiving some information, but there wasn’t much that could be followed up on.
Seeing Robert Green’s expression, Adam frowned, "What did you find?"
After handing him the materials, Robert Green said:
"These are the findings from a recent investigation into Jacob Clark’s family. Please take a look."
Adam opened the file and scanned through it quickly, his expression suddenly darkened, "Jacob Clark’s son isn’t his biological child?"
Jacob Clark was the co-pilot on the plane with Henry Jones that year. At the time of the crash, two bodies were recovered from the scene. One was identified as Henry’s, and the other was beyond recognition; one couldn’t tell who it was just by looking at the face.
Later, after comparing the DNA of the body with Jacob Clark’s son, it was confirmed that the corpse was the co-pilot, Jacob Clark.
But if Jacob Clark’s son was not his biological child, then the DNA results from that time meant nothing, and the direction of their investigation over the years was entirely wrong.
Adam’s face grew visibly grim.
Robert Green glanced at him cautiously and nodded.
