Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1019. The Old Master had an accident

Adam Jones averted his gaze from her affectionate eyes, curled his lips slightly, and said,

"Work hard. Although I’ve secured these resources for you, if you don’t perform well, the audience won’t be forgiving."

Sophie Baker was of course aware of this. If her acting was subpar, it would not only reflect poorly on her but also on Adam.

With such a high starting point, many could guess that Adam was the one providing her with these resources.

If she performed poorly, it would be like tarnishing Adam’s reputation.

What if he became so infuriated that he started to detest her?

"Adam, rest assured, I will perform well," she promised.

Elly Campbell was watched with sympathy by the Jones employees as she left the Jones Corporation building.

Now that she finally had a lead on how Adam’s memory had been erased, the gloom that had shrouded her heart began to lift.

Just then, her phone rang—it was a call from Elly.

"Auntie, what’s happened?"

The next second, her complexion changed, "I’ll be right there."

Elly Campbell’s face drained of color so fast she didn’t even know how she managed to drive out of the Jones building.

When Elly Campbell arrived at the emergency room of First Hospital, there were already several people standing outside. freēwēbnovel.com

Besides Elly, there was James Campbell, Melody Baker, and... Ivy Lentz.

Seeing Ivy Lentz, Elly couldn’t help but frown.

But at the moment, she had no time to concern herself with these details and approached Elly, asking,

"Auntie, how is Grandpa doing?"

"The doctor said the Old Master fell from upstairs, and the impact was too great, especially since he hit the back of his head. Now..."

Elly’s lips paled, tears filled her eyes, and she couldn’t continue her words.

Elly Campbell felt her body trembling slightly as she stared at the doors of the emergency room, unable to calm her racing heart.

"Grandpa was fine, how could he have fallen from upstairs?"

The Old Master was eighty but had always been in good health, rarely suffering from even minor ailments.

The only time he was hospitalized was due to the stress caused by James Campbell and Melody Baker, and he was fine after being discharged.

How could he have suffered a fall down the stairs?

"I don’t know either. I wasn’t home at the time. It was Ivy who called me, and that’s how I found out."

Elly Campbell’s gaze shifted to Ivy Lentz, who at that moment was pale, tears welling up in her eyes, sobbing uncontrollably.

"I went to find Mom. When I arrived, the servants were all working in the yard, so I went in by myself. Mom wasn’t home, so I stayed a while chatting with Grandpa.

Latter, Grandpa said he was tired, so I didn’t want to bother him anymore. Mom still hadn’t returned, and I was about to leave. Just as I reached the door, I heard the sound of someone falling down the stairs behind me."

As she spoke, Ivy Lentz grew even paler.

She bit her lower lip hard, struggling to calm herself from the panic of the moment, and continued,

"I saw Grandpa rolling down from the top of the stairs, crashing into the wall on the first floor..."

After hearing this, Elly Campbell fell silent, no longer saying a word.

The expressions on everyone’s faces were somber, and at that moment, no one was in the mood to speak.

The only one possibly in good spirits was Melody Baker.

Indeed, karma had finally caught up with the old man. She just prayed he wouldn’t be saved.

But she dared not show such schadenfreude on her face, even though inside she was overjoyed.
