NovelBookChapter 1470: 1470. Can't bring myself to be cruel in this lifetime
Traveling so far to do these charity activities that are nothing more than the icing on the cake for her—was it
really necessary?
And then there's Leo Hall.
He's only twenty years old and still in college.
It's the start of the semester now, but instead of attending classes, he comes to this place to idle away. Doesn't
he worry about making a fool of himself and people thinking he’s irresponsible, just relying on his dad?
"It's about tto wrap things up."
Adam Jones held Elly Campbell's hand as they walked up the mountain.
Though the area is impoverished, the environment is stunning. Standing at a high vantage point, the view
stretches endlessly, broad and beautiful.
"If Harry Hall gets control of the Hall Clan, what do you think he would do to Leo Hall?"
Elly Campbell turned to look at Adam Jones and asked.
Adam Jones heard the faint worry in Elly’s voice and felt a twinge of displeasure. He raised an eyebrow and said:
"You're worried about him?"
That jealous tone couldn't be more obvious.

"Can you stop getting jealous over nothing? Even that Leo Hall—a twenty-something kid—you’re sour enough to
drink a whole vat of vinegar over him."
Adam Jones felt a bit aggrieved by his wife’s complaint.
He raised his hand to touch his bruised mouth, which still hurt from Ethan White's punch. He winced lightly and
dismissed her words.
"That boy, Leo Hall, has his own bag of tricks. Do you really think calling you sister-in-law’ means he truly sees
you as his sister-in-law?"
Elly Campbell certainly knew Leo Hall had ulterior motives, but she didn’t think he'd be attracted to her—a
woman seven years older than him.
"I think you just assevery man in the world is in love with your wife."
Adam Jones snorted, his expression practically saying, "My wife's charm is unmatched."
Elly Campbell was at a loss for words.
Ever since she first met Adam Jones, she’d never imagined that her husband—this man she’d known for so many
years—would turn out to be such a jealous, clingy person.
The aloof, untouchable aura he presented to others, like that of a Himalayan Snow Lotus, must have been
swallowed whole by a dog.
Elly Campbell looked at him helplessly, rubbed her temples, and said, "Alright, alright. Why worry about what
others feel about me? All you need to know is that | only love you, isn’t that enough?"
She wrapped her arms around Adam Jones's waist, burying her face into his side. Her affectionate gesture
naturally filled Adam with joy, the corners of his lips curving upward in satisfaction.
He lifted his arm to pull Elly into his embrace and suddenly let out a melancholy sigh, "Having such a charming
wife makesfeel so insecure."
His words were half-joking, yet carried a sincere undertone.
Perhaps others might not think much of it, but in his eyes, his wife’s charm was genuinely unrivaled. He saw
every man as a potential rival.
He even worried that one day, if he lost his own appeal, his wife might leave him.
