Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1194. Island Master Jones has always been ruthless and unsentimental.

Elly Campbell curved her lips in undeniable acknowledgment.

"Don’t you like it?"

Adam Jones squinted at Elly, "I’ve learned a lot recently, and I’ve even created quite a few of my own. Do you want to hear them?"

"Yeah, of course."

Elly watched him with a smiling gaze, lowered her voice, and said,

"Let’s go somewhere else. We don’t want Harry Hall to learn our secrets."

Adam nodded, unable to deny her request.

He stood up without another word, promptly lifted Elly into his arms, and made his way to the other end of the cruise ship, toward a private world just for two.

As for Elly, the proverbial third wheel, she was, of course, left behind to be the light bulb for others.

At such times, Island Master Jones was known for his utter disregard for anyone else.

Harry Hall didn’t realize that even though he had been with Helen Melendy for so many years, this was the first time he had said he liked her.

He hadn’t noticed this himself because, in his opinion, actions always spoke louder than words.

But not everyone understands the thoughts of a young girl.

No matter how much you do, sometimes it might not compare to the simple words "I like you" or "I love you."

So, at this moment, when Helen heard Harry say those words, it was as if her emotions, guarded for a millennium, had finally met their reciprocal, making her eyes well up with tears in an instant.

"You... you never said it before, I thought... I thought..."

She couldn’t continue.

It wasn’t just her assumption; everyone who knew them thought that Harry was reluctantly with her.

The humiliation of being the butt of jokes for those years, for her persistent pursuit, now seemed right before her eyes.

The emotions that she had bottled up inside crumbled instantly.

"They all said you couldn’t stand my pestering, that you were just putting up with me..."

Tears welled up against her will, and she didn’t want Harry to see her like this, so she turned her head away.

"I didn’t even know if you truly wanted to be with me or not. During those four years, I always thought that maybe one day you would just tell me you wanted to break up. I tried so hard to keep our relationship going, but I was scared every single day..."

She hadn’t finished her sentence when Harry pulled her into his embrace.

This was the first time Harry realized how hard those four years had been for her.

He thought he had been good enough, but he had still hurt her, letting others mock her behind her back.

"I’m sorry, I didn’t know..."

He held her tight, his strong sense of guilt and sorrow gnawing at his heart.

"You didn’t know, I was really happy when you said you liked me, it’s just... I’m not very good at expressing myself..."

Back then, Harry Hall could only display his eloquence within his field of expertise; in other areas, he was always silent.

"It was you who gradually made me more talkative. I love hearing you speak; I really enjoy and feel happy when I talk with you..."

"I figured, in the future, I’d be responsible for pampering and loving you, and you just need to keep me company and talk..."

"Helen, I’m not someone who’s good at sweet-talking, and I didn’t realize this would make you so unhappy, I’m sorry..."

"..."

At this moment, Helen Melendy’s emotional state had gradually begun to calm down.

She knew that the Harry Hall from their school days was a man of few words.

And she also knew that Hall would always listen patiently to her, no matter how much she talked, he would never interrupt her impatiently.
