At this moment, thinking back to her mother and James Campbell's past, Elly Campbell felt some regret but also some relief that she hadn't thrown herself headlong into trying to matchmake Professor Ford with her mother.
The buoyant mood she had originally felt now instantly deflated.
Resting her face against the front of Adam Jones's body, she sighed deeply and said, "I was too anxious, whether the choice is right or wrong, it should be up to Mom to decide."
Adam Jones felt his wife's spirits plummet in an instant, knowing she was associating it with some past events related to James Campbell; he naturally thought back to the first time he saw her as a child and couldn't help feeling a twinge of heartache.
He reached out to hold her tightly in his arms and softly comforted her,
"Don't worry too much, look, your mom is also having a fulfilling life by herself. If Professor Ford is truly her fate, they will eventually come together, but if not, we can't force it, can we?"
