PopularNovelChapter 1146: The fox's tail is gradually revealed.
She opened the door and walked out, seemingly having heard scommotion upstairs, the voices of two people arguing, which then stopped.
"Aunt Lily." "Aunt Lily." Both their faces looked rather unpleasant.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLily Bankston was looking forward to such a scene, smiling as she cdownstairs.
"As soon as I opened the door, I heard you arguing. What's going on?" While she spoke, Lily Bankston looked at Adam Jones, adopting the tone of an elder to rebuke him, "Adam, you too, a grown man should be more considerate to his wife." Adam Jones, face ashen, didn't speak, but walked over to Lily Bankston and changed the subject, "Aunt Lily, Gloria toldyou were looking for me?" If it had been a normal marital relationship, Adam Jones would have said he heard it from Elly Campbell, not from Gloria.
So, just from Adam's words, Lily Bankston could infer that the couple's relationship had indeed hit rock bottom.
She thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes, there is something I need to discuss with you." "Alright, let's go to the cafe then." "Mm." Lily Bankston nodded her head but didn't call Elly Campbell along, as if deliberately ignoring her.
Seeing Elly Campbell's complexion worsening, the hidden smile in Lily Bankston's eyes grew a bit deeper.
Adam Jones also didn't call Elly Campbell to join them, knowing that whatever Aunt Lily wanted to discuss with him, she probably preferred Elly Campbell not to be present.
Elly Campbell didn't follow them, and after Adam Jones and Lily Bankston left, she sat down huffily on the couch. Once they reached the cafe, Lily Bankston casually started the conversation, "What were you two fighting about?" "Nothing much, just about the presidential election next month. She askedabout sponsoring a candidate." Adam Jones replied indifferently, but Lily's expression becserious.
Still, she seemingly unconcernedly said, "All this quarreling over that? Can't you just indulge her?" "She said that before I lost my memory, I always supported the current President, Tony Wilson." Adam Jones did not conceal anything from Lily Bankston, as he began to prepare coffee at the cafe table.
"That day, Elly Campbell had Tony Wilson send James Grant to hypnotizeto recover my memory. I was a bit cautious at the time, worried she might be playing sother angle." Hearing this, Lily Bankston seemed to understand, "So, during that hypnosis session, you didn't cooperate with James Grant?" "Mm, Elly Campbell has schemed againstseveral times. How could I possibly trust someone she introduces without reservation?" Adam Jones chuckled.
Lily Bankston nodded, "No wonder." "No wonder what?" "No wonder James Grant couldn't help you recover your memories. I thought that after years in business, he had neglected his profession." Hearing this, Adam Jones looked at Lily Bankston curiously, smiling, "From what you're saying, Aunt Lily, you're quite familiar with this James Grant?" "We were at the sschool when we were younger." Lily Bankston replied nonchalantly.
Adam Jones did not inquire further about their relationship, instead, he asked, "Do you think it's worthwhile forto support the President?" He poured a cup of coffee for Lily Bankston and continued,
"Elly Campbell had him introduce James Grant to me, which suggests she's quite close to the President. I'm not too comfortable with this person." Lily Bankston took the coffee, sipping thoughtfully before smiling, "Is this what you were just arguing about?"
Adam Jones nodded, "I told her I don't remember Tony Wilson Even if Tony Wilsond I I were to support him, I'd want to observe him for a while longer." "That's a reasonable thought, especially since you don't really know anyone right now."
"But Elly Campbell insists that I've always been a supporter of Tonyn Wilson. The more anxious she gets, the more suspicious I find it."
