Lily Bankston heard his words and showed a trace of surprise on her face. Looking at Adam Jones, she said, "Didn’t you forget everything? Why do you still have such a clear impression of this matter?"
Adam Jones narrowed his eyes and immediately seized on the three most crucial words, "What matter is Aunt Lily referring to?"
Lily Bankston looked at him, sighed, and said, "Five years ago, we met as usual. That time I noticed you had lost a lot of weight, so I asked you what had happened. You told me that you and Elly Campbell had divorced, saying that she did some... um... not very nice things to annul your engagement."
Lily Bankston spoke in a rather vague manner, which was obviously difficult for her to articulate, at least, for someone like Adam Jones.
"Was it Elly Campbell who had me caught in bed with another man and wanted to take our photos to disgrace me?"
Adam Jones spoke to Lily Bankston about one of the only two fragments he remembered from his memory.
Lily Bankston hesitated for a few seconds before nodding.
"Yes, but she didn’t succeed. You said that a girl saved you while those people were away. The attempt was unsuccessful, and that girl was almost beaten to death."
Adam Jones frowned, "Sophie Baker?"
The surprise in Lily Bankston’s eyes deepened, and she looked at Adam Jones with some disbelief.
"Didn’t you forget everyone? Why do you remember this Sophie Baker so clearly?"
Seeing Adam Jones’s gaze suddenly turn cold, his already sharp features, made more severe by his weight loss, appeared even more imposing at that moment.
"Probably because the memory is too deep-seated in my heart."
Lily Bankston looked at him and comforting patted his shoulder, saying:
"I heard the whole thing from you. Now you are still with Elly Campbell, maybe there has been some misunderstanding. You are most susceptible to memory confusion given your current memory loss, so it’s best not to think about anything."
"Adam, Aunt Lily has always treated you as her own son. Now that you have returned safely, nothing is more important than that. For the other issues, don’t rush to figure them out. Take your time."
Seeing that Adam Jones still wore a stern expression, Lily Bankston let out a light chuckle with a hint of the helpless affection a mother shows to her son, and said:
"All right, all right, if you really think there’s something wrong with Elly Campbell, just be wary of her when you go back. After all, she is your wife, and she’s pregnant with your child. Don’t go overboard before you clear up the truth."
Adam Jones clearly didn’t take Lily Bankston’s words to heart, and upon hearing her say this, he let out a disregarding snort and said:
"What else is there to doubt? If the impression wasn’t so deep, how could I remember it so clearly? I didn’t even forget it despite the amnesia!"
He was so angry that he stood up from his seat in front of Lily Bankston
"Aunt Lily, I’ll take your advice and will be on guard against her for now without overdoing anything. But if one day I find evidence that proves Elly Campbell was scheming against me, I will absolutely not let her off."
He had an inherently cold demeanor, and now that he had lost weight, his facial features were even more prominent and more intimidating.
Especially now, as he spoke in a furiously angry manner, those close to him would definitely be frightened by the chill in his eyes.
