Relentless Pursuit After Divorce

Chapter 20: 020. Adam Jones’s Love of Heart Chapter 20: 020. Adam Jones’s Love of Heart Editor: Henyee Translations She truly hated him.

Adam Jones… What gave him the right to humiliate her like that!

Elly Campbell clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her palms until they bled, when a gentle voice, as soothing as flowing water, interrupted her thoughts—
“Elly, here you are!”

In the garden, a middle-aged woman, her hair swept into an elegant matron’s chignon and dressed in a light purple cheongsam, was carefully trimming the potted plants.

Her demeanor was refined and kind, exuding both grace and dignity in every word and action.

“Mom.”

She forced a smile at the corner of her mouth and embraced the woman warmly, pushing the sadness back from her eyes.

“Why don’t you go inside and rest? Jenny has made you a lot of delicious food.”

Jenna Clark smiled gently, her expression as calm and comforting as the origin of her name.

A modest beauty stood gracefully at the edge of the city.

Elly Campbell’s mother, Jenna, was a woman of elegance and gentle demeanor, radiating a quiet beauty.

Elly, however, had a temperament quite different from her mother’s, more akin to her grandfather’s. Her presence could be fierce and intimidating, making others hesitate to approach carelessly. But when she softened, her demeanor echoed her mother’s—classic, composed, and quietly charming.

“Alright.”

Elly Campbell took Jenna Clark’s arm and sat with her in the living room.

As Elly gazed at her mother’s face, which showed no signs of aging, she saw only the timeless grace of a high-born lady, like an orchid that had flourished elegantly over the years.

“Mom, have you made up your mind?”

The reason Elly had returned to the country this time was because her mother had confided in her about her plans to divorce James Campbell.

“The Campbell company was built by you, yet it’s registered under James’s name. After the divorce, letting him take half of the assets… I don’t think that’s fair to you.”

Especially when it would benefit that mistress and the love child—Elly knew her mother could never accept that.

Jenna Clark merely smiled faintly, her expression calm and indifferent. “Right now, I only want to rid myself of James Campbell and shed the title of Mrs. Campbell. As for the rest…”

Her gaze drifted peacefully out the window. “They are but worldly possessions, after all.”

She poured a cup of coffee for Elly with her own hands and handed it to her.

“Besides, even if I gave the entire Campbell company to James, do you think he has the ability to take control of it?”

Jenna Clark raised an eyebrow slightly, an action that felt out of character for her, yet somehow it enhanced her charm.

It added a layer of confident wisdom to her otherwise gentle nature.

Elly Campbell, holding the coffee cup, paused for a moment before offering a smile to her mother, her expression unreadable.

Of course, she wouldn’t let James Campbell easily seize control of such a significant portion of the Campbell company. As she had told him earlier, whatever belonged to Elly Campbell—even if it were only to feed dogs—she wouldn’t allow anyone to take advantage of it without resistance.

Taking a sip of her coffee, Elly casually said, “I met James Campbell’s love child today.”

At those words, Jenna Clark simply glanced up at her, her expression unreadable, as if she’d been expecting this.

James Campbell had been quite active lately, particularly focused on introducing his illegitimate daughter into the family. It was only a matter of time before she approached Elly.

“She is Adam Jones’s love of heart.”

The statement caught Jenna Clark off guard, her expression turning incredulous. “Are you sure?”

“Yes.”

If it weren’t for that, she probably wouldn’t have fully come to her senses even now.

At the Jones Family.

After parting ways with Elly Campbell, Adam Jones drove her car back to the Jones residence.
