Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1227. Not afraid of thunder at all

But she didn’t want to give up just like that; she had feelings for Cam Green, and she had pinned her hopes for the rest of her life on him. She didn’t want him to end up in prison at all.

"Adam, think of this as Mom asking you for help, just this once, would you please..."

She even knelt down in front of Adam Jones. "Mom is kneeling to beg you, okay?"

For a mother to kneel before her son, to outsiders, it was utterly shocking.

Shu Yi Qin felt that since she had knelt down to beg Adam, he would surely soften his heart.

But alas, Adam was entirely unafraid of divine retribution; when she knelt, he felt perfectly justified in accepting it.

After all, in his eyes, this woman was less than a stranger, so where was the divine retribution?

Otherwise, back then on Jones Island, he wouldn’t have made her kneel and apologize.

Adam still showed no emotion; she knelt, and he just let her kneel, without any intention of asking her to get up.

Shu Yi Qin was stunned, realizing she couldn’t get a read on her son, Adam.

Even feeling completely powerless.

Seeing herself kneeling, and Adam remaining utterly indifferent, Shu Yi Qin didn’t know what else she could do.

She wanted to persist and not leave, but she also feared truly angering him, fearing he might indeed let Cam Green spend a lifetime in prison, so she dared not push too far.

Just when she thought all hope was lost, Adam suddenly spoke:

"There’s something I want to know."

Shu Yi Qin’s eyes lit up, thinking there was a chance to turn things around, and she quickly responded:

"What is it, you ask."

"How did you manage to get into my father’s bed back then and end up pregnant with me?"

Upon hearing this, Shu Yi Qin’s face stiffened slightly, and her gaze unintentionally avoided Adam’s.

"Your father and I were truly in love, which is why I got pregnant with you..."

Before she could finish, seeing Adam tapping the table impatiently with his pen, he cut her off.

"I want the truth. If your answer satisfies me, perhaps I’ll consider letting Cam go. Think carefully about it."

Clearly, Adam’s words had successfully captured Shu Yi Qin’s attention.

Shu Yi Qin hesitated for a moment, and after thinking it through—since Henry Jones and Lily Bankston were already dead, revealing this wouldn’t make much of a difference—she started to speak:

"Back then... your uncle... my brother Joseph Thompson, he was the one who asked me to find an opportunity to get close to your father..."

As she talked about the past, a rare look of shame appeared on Shu Yi Qin’s face.

"The Thompson Family was once one of the four great families in Boston, and had its days of glory..."

Recalling her family’s past splendor, a hint of pride emerged on Shu Yi Qin’s face.

"But by your uncle’s generation, the Thompson Family had declined, a hollow shell that was crumbling on the inside. Those familiar with the Thompson Family knew this, and many avoided us. Only the President and your father were willing to befriend your uncle and support us..." freēnovelkiss.com

"Back then, the Wilson Clan was in politics, the Jones Family was in business, supporting each other, and only our Thompson Family was the pitied and helped one..."

Shu Yi Qin’s face showed some resentment as she spoke.

"Despite all being great families, my brother still had to ingratiate himself with Tony Wilson and Henry Jones. He couldn’t bear it, nor did he want Henry Jones to become Tony Wilson’s support, so he..."

Shu Yi Qin didn’t finish her sentence, but Adam understood it all.
