In the simplest terms, a woman's beauty can sometimes be an original sin, and Elly Campbell's beauty had become an unforgivable great sin.
Now, seeing her get out of Adam Jones's car, those who didn't recognize Adam were fine, but those who did felt even worse.
Even if she were a mistress, she would be Adam Jones's mistress.
Just this point alone was enough to make people feel sour.
Everyone watching the scene was stunned, but it was William Campbell's class teacher who first came to her senses, feeling a sudden panic upon learning that William's father was indeed Adam Jones.
Elly Campbell recognized William's homeroom teacher and walked straight towards her.
"Miss Davis."
Shaken from her initial shock, Miss Davis nodded to Elly and then looked at Adam, who was holding William, and said with forced composure,
"Mr. Jones never came to the kindergarten before; I had no idea you were William's father."
Hearing this, the cool look on Adam Jones's face sank down a notch.
