Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1241. Like a poor relative begging for help

In other words, James Campbell would soon be knocking on their door again.

Indeed, three days later, James Campbell did come knocking once more.

This time, Elly Campbell didn’t have him stopped but let him in instead.

James Campbell’s visits to the Jones Family weren’t frequent—it was only when he was a child that the Old Master and his late mother would often take him and Elly to drop by the Jones Family.

But that was all decades ago. Though the Jones Family was still there, the interior decoration of the villa had completely changed.

His relationship with his daughter Elly had always been poor; in the years she married Adam Jones, he hadn’t set foot in the Jones Family home.

Now, sitting in the Jones Family living room, James Campbell no longer possessed the sense of superiority of a father-in-law; instead, he seemed particularly ill at ease.

He was like a poor relative showing up to ask for handouts, with not a shred of confidence.

Particularly since he had been sitting in the living room for quite some time and still hadn’t seen Adam and his wife appear.

He drank cup after cup of coffee waiting, until, finally, he grew impatient.

He looked at the servant in the hall and said sternly,

"When will your Young Master and Young Miss come over?"

"Mr. Campbell, please wait a moment, the Young Master and Young Miss are bathing the little grandson and will be here soon."

Hearing this, James Campbell felt his guts wrench once again.

With so many servants in the Jones Family house, since when did the couple need to bathe the child themselves?

Clearly, the couple was deliberately leaving him to stew here.

How preposterous!

James Campbell’s face darkened again and again, his expression shifting unpredictably as he considered lashing out in anger, but in the end, he held back.

This was the Jones Family home, not a place where he had the luxury of losing his temper.

These past few days, he had come to see many people for who they really were.

They used to treat him with great courtesy when they were eager for a partnership with the Campbell, addressing him as a brother, even closer than actual brothers.

But now that the Campbell was in trouble.

Those people avoided him like the plague, making all sorts of excuses to reject his requests, unwilling to help.

Currently, the Campbell had no chance to turn the situation around, and declaring bankruptcy was only a matter of time.

James Campbell knew that if the 55% of shares weren’t given to Elly, they might as well be thrown to the wind.

Giving them to Elly might get some cash in return, but if not, he truly wouldn’t survive.

So, he had come over, cheek in hand.

After patiently waiting a bit longer, Adam Jones and his wife finally appeared.

"You two sure are busy."

Upon meeting them, James Campbell couldn’t help but make a few snide comments, which the Jones couple simply ignored.

Being disregarded in such a fashion, James Campbell had a mountain of frustration with nowhere to vent, and he had to forcibly restrain himself.

"CEO Campbell, do you have business with us this time?"

Elly Campbell sat opposite James Campbell, her tone indifferent, without even the slightest bit of courtesy.

In James Campbell’s eyes, this high-handed attitude was a deliberate way to belittle him.

Bitch!

James Campbell cursed inwardly in rage, yet his outward demeanor was exceptionally conciliatory as he said,

"I’ve given it two days of thought and agree to the transfer proposal you made the other day. I’ll transfer all my shares to Elly Campbell."

He looked towards Adam Jones, starting to speak.

But he saw that Adam Jones did not immediately respond, nor did he even show a hint of joy.

Adam simply sat languidly by Elly’s side, waiting for her to speak, showing an attitude that sought her guidance above all, which made James Campbell’s eyes ache with irritation.

After waiting in vain for Adam Jones to speak, James Campbell turned his gaze back to Elly Campbell.
