William Campbell was so shocked by the slap Elly Campbell had just delivered to Adam Jones that it took him a while to speak up, "Mommy, it wasn't that uncle who took me away. I went to the airport by myself to find him."
He thought, Mommy must be angry, convinced that the uncle was a child trafficker.
Elly Campbell glanced coldly at Adam, meeting his dark and profound eyes. She said nothing but turned her gaze away and said to William, "We'll talk about it when we get home."
"Can Uncle come home with us?"
"No..."
"Yes."
As Elly Campbell's words were about to leave her lips, Adam's deep voice interjected. He walked towards mother and son as if the slap hadn't landed on his face at all and seemed not to take it to heart. After looking at Elly, he said to William, "Uncle will go home with William."
"Adam Jones..."
"Elly Campbell!"
Adam's voice carried a hint of chill, "Aren't you going to explain your son's situation to me properly?"
