Chapter 51: 051. The Wife is Naughty Again_1

He wasn’t someone who hadn’t seen beautiful women before, and there were plenty who were more beautiful than Elly Campbell, but Elly’s beauty was combined with a shrewdness and competency that was difficult to find in other women.

No wonder even someone as sparing with praise as Thomas Churchill had been generous with his compliments towards her.

Adam Jones grew increasingly displeased, as if a treasure he had hidden deeply had suddenly been spied upon by the entire world for its beauty.

“President Jones, this…”

Adam’s words obviously stunned both Mr. and Mrs. Churchill, and even James hadn’t expected this turn of events.

“President Jones, you say Elly, she…”

Elly hadn’t expected that her well-intentioned help for James would be exposed so quickly, and by her husband, who never wished to acknowledge her identity in public.

Facing the incredulous expressions of Mr. and Mrs. Churchill, Elly wore a look of apology on her face.

“Sorry, Manager Churchill, Lady Churchill, my wife is being naughty again. When she’s angry with me, she likes to flirt around outside to provoke me, but how could I ever be mad? Right, honey?”

The corners of Adam’s lips held a harmless smile, but only Elly knew that the more harmless the smile appeared, the more lethal it was.

The hand resting on her waist wasn’t as relaxed as his expression but instead gripped her hard enough to hurt.

At that moment, Elly didn’t know how to explain herself to Mr. and Mrs. Churchill. She knew that James was definitely in for trouble.

“Uncle, Aunt, I’m sorry, I…”

“Manager Churchill, Lady Churchill, sorry, I have to take my wife away for a moment.”

Without giving Elly a chance to apologize, Adam wrapped his arm around Elly’s waist and forcefully led her away.

“Honey, you’d better give me a good explanation about this affair of openly giving me a green hat.”

Adam’s voice remained light and breezy, without a hint of anger, but his smile was obviously not reaching his eyes, so frosty it could freeze someone to death.

Watching his parents leave with anger and disappointment, James chuckled awkwardly, “Dad, Mom, this… I can explain…”

“We’ll settle this when we get home!”

Thomas’s face turned steely with anger as he coldly cut off James and stormed away with his drink.

“You really are a handful!”

Compared to Thomas, Julian was less willing to blame her precious son.

James managed a smile as he saw his parents off, but as soon as they turned around, the smile faded.

His gaze shifted towards the direction of Adam and Elly, dimming in the next second.

Elly was actually Adam’s wife. He had never anticipated this; no wonder Adam had looked at him with such hostility when he came looking for Elly in the morning.

All along, he had thought that he was determined to have Elly, even after four years, this determination hadn’t changed. Only, unexpectedly…

A sense of bitterness inevitably arose in James’s heart.

“Adam, what exactly do you want to do? Weren’t my words clear enough this morning?”

After being led to a secluded corner by Adam, Elly impatiently shook off his hand from her waist.

At this moment, Adam had already put away his earlier smile, and his face was covered in a layer of frost.

“What do I want to do? Isn’t that a question I should be asking you?”

His pupils shrank slightly with anger as he locked Elly’s face within his dark gaze.
