Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1022. Going there to attend her final moments was the best thing to do.

Sophie Baker was somewhat flustered by Adam Jones’s questioning and inadvertently overlooked the disgust for her that was evident in his tone.

Before she could even explain, Adam Jones added another comment—

"I rushed down because I saw you about to cry in the office, but it seems like you’re not in such a hurry."

"No, no, no, it’s not that, it’s... it’s because I’m wearing high heels, so I can’t walk fast..."

"Hmm, I know, I was wrong to blame you."

After a beating and then offering a candy, Adam Jones got into the passenger seat of the car.

Following up, Sophie Baker: "..."

She had thought that if Adam was driving, she would sit in the passenger seat, and if the driver was, she could sit in the back with Adam.

She had never expected...

Sophie Baker stood outside the car door, her expression somewhat indescribable.

Adam Jones did not seem to notice anything amiss. Seeing that she hadn’t moved, he asked:

"Aren’t you getting in the car? Aren’t you worried about Grandpa Campbell?"

Sophie Baker dared not admit she was bothered about Adam Jones not sitting with her.

At such a time, focusing on minor issues instead of her grandfather’s condition would certainly damage the image she had created in Adam Jones’s mind.

So she hurriedly opened the car door and got in.

Of course, she did not know that her efforts to craft a perfect image in Adam Jones’s mind were in vain as she held no significant place there.

Even the driver, who had always served Adam Jones, gave Sophie Baker a sympathetic glance.

This was probably the most neglected mistress in history.

When the president was courting his wife, he was incredibly clingy, not to mention sitting in the backseat.

Even if he sat in the passenger seat, the president would stick to the same seat as his wife.

After sympathizing with Sophie Baker in his mind, the driver started the car and headed to the hospital.

Thinking of how Elly Campbell must be suffering right now, Adam Jones’s heart was painfully clenched; he wished he could fly over to console her. freewebnøvel_com

"Drive faster."

He urged the driver continuously along the way.

The driver was in a difficult position, as this was the maximum allowable speed on this road.

Sophie Baker, meanwhile, thought that Adam Jones was urging the driver to go fast because he was worried about her concern for the Old Master, which made her feel secretly pleased.

Of course, she could not tell Adam that she was not at all eager to see that old man.

She would prefer to wait for him to die and then attend his funeral.

But she could not say that. Like her mother, Melody Baker, she had to keep such pleasant thoughts to herself and secretly rejoice.

Upon reaching the hospital, Sophie Baker acted very proactively this time, resembling a grieving younger family member who had lost a respected elder, staggering toward the emergency building.

"Dad, Mom, how is Grandpa?"

Melody Baker wondered why her daughter was showing so much concern for that old man. She raised her head to see Adam Jones, who came with her.

Not wanting Adam Jones to see her schadenfreude, she quickly wiped away nonexistent tears from the corner of her eyes and said with a "choked" voice:

"The doctor is still in there trying to revive Grandpa. We are all out here waiting for news."

With her eyes red, Sophie Baker stood next to James Campbell, acting like a dutiful daughter, clutching James Campbell’s arm and comforting him:

"Dad, don’t worry, Grandpa will be fine."

"Sophie, good girl!"

Although James Campbell was also upset about the Old Master’s favoritism, he was still somewhat downhearted as it was his father, after all.
