<strong>Chapter 1413: 1413. Unpredictable</strong>


    Elly Campbell didn’t particrly care, she was done eating anyway. As long as Jasmine Churchill didn’t pull any antics in front of her, Elly was toozy to bother with her.


    Before Adam Jones could speak, Elly Campbell said: “There’s plenty of space here, you can sit down and eat.”


    “Thank you, cousin-inw.”


    Jasmine Churchill’s face brightened as she carried her te to sit across from Adam Jones.


    Her gaze casually flitted towards him a few times, but Adam Jones, who was wiping his hands with a hot towel on the table, didn’t spare her even a nce.


    Feeling a tinge of disappointment, she had yet to think of how to start a conversation when she saw Adam Jones and Elly Campbell rising from their seats, preparing to leave.


    “Cousin.”


    Jasmine Churchill couldn’t help but call out to Adam Jones, and when he gave her an impatient look, she trembled slightly and said:


    “You’re not eating anymore?”


    “Yeah.”


    Adam Jones replied impatiently, clearly not interested in further conversation, then took Elly Campbell’s hand and left the dining room.


    Jasmine Churchill pressed her lips together; herplexion paled, and the expression in her eyes shifted unpredictably, making her hard to read.


    Through the light brown transparent ss, Jasmine Churchill watched Adam Jones walk out of the dining room, his arm around Elly Campbell’s shoulders, the coupleughing and talking, a shadow of gloom shed once again in her eyes.


    William Hall owned a multi-billion dor Half Mountain Vi on the east side of Boston, a property he purchased specifically for his mistress, Mia Brown.


    Although the Hall Family was a wealthy and prominent household, William Hall favored living there, where he and Mia Brown, along with her son, felt more like a real family.


    As for Leanne Richards and Harry Hall, they were more like a paramour and an illegitimate son, and William Hall hardly paid them much attention.


    Mia Brown was a very considerate person who also understood William Hall well. She was smart and beautiful. She could always guess what William Hall was thinking and satisfied him with her words and deeds.


    Thus, even after more than twenty years, William Hall was far from tired of her; in fact, he grew to like her even more.


    He liked her so much that, due to her status as the mother, he nearly wished to hand over the entire Hall n to Leo Hall, his illegitimate son, indifferent to any gossip behind his back.


    “I heard that sister always makes rke Ainley guard outside Helen Melendy’s sickroom. What’s the purpose of that?”


    The “sister” Mia Brown referred to was Leanne Richards, and though the term sounded respectful, it was more like mockery.


    After saying this, Mia Brownughed out loud indeed.


    William Hall took the red wine she handed him, and when she mentioned that woman, Leanne Richards, he couldn’t help but feel a wave of annoyance.


    “She’s just a fool, thinking that by having rke Ainley flounce about in front of Harry, he would fall in love with her or something.”


    In William Hall’s tone, there was no concealment of the disdain and rejection in his eyes.


    Although he wasn’t close to his son Harry Hall, that was still his own flesh and blood. As the son excelled, naturally, the father felt pride.


    “If only Harry hadn’t been taught by the old man, if he had not been raised by that fool Leanne Richards, it wouldn’t be so difficult to take the entire Hall n from his hands.”


    This was an indirect acknowledgment of Harry Hall’s capabilities.


    Although Mia Brown knew William Hall had little affection for his son Harry Hall, hearing him sincerely praise Harry left her feeling somewhat displeased.


    Her own son was only twenty, not yet a university graduate, while his brother had long since be a well-known figure throughout Boston and even the entire country.


    Not just in the legal field, but his reputation in the business world was also significant.
