Chapter 1056: 1056. Assus everyone is as foolish as she is. Chapter 1056: 1056. Assus everyone is as foolish as she is. She lowered her voice and said, “This is the Presidential Palace, please bear with it.”
Though lody Baker was legally married to Jas Campbell, having risen from the ranks of lover to spouse, these rich ladies from powerful families—both her own and her husband’s—were not to be trifed with lightly.
With this lack of confidence, lody Baker dared not let her daughter make a scene at such an event.
If they were expelled by the staff of the Presidential Palace, it would indeed beco a joke.
It was then that Sophie Baker reluctantly cald down, glaring viciously at Elly Campbell and the few rich ladies, her heart filled with resentnt.
“Elly Campbell, you just wait.”
Sophie Baker thought bitterly to herself, her eyes growing more feral as she glared at Elly Campbell.
Elly Campbell raised an eyebrow, knowing exactly what Sophie Baker was thinking just from the look in her eyes.
Thinks she can use as a stepping stone without even asking if I’m willing.
Sophie Baker simply couldn’t stand the way Elly Campbell seed fearless at all tis.
Why!
Why could she, even on the brink of being discarded, still do as she pleased, while she, even with Adam Jones backing her, still found herself restrained by her?
Sophie Baker’s resentnt and indignation intensified.
She hoped that Adam Jones would say sothing on her behalf, even just defending her a little would have been enough, but… there was nothing.
A hint of disappointnt was inevitable in Sophie Baker’s eyes.
Just then, the Lady Marquess patted the arm of a rich lady beside her and pointed into the distance, saying,
“Sherry is here.”
Elly Campbell naturally looked up to see the woman dressed in a white gown, with distinct facial features and her hair elegantly coiled into a simple bun, walking alongside a middle-aged man.
Elly Campbell didn’t recognize the woman, but she imdiately recognized the middle-aged man she was arm in arm with.
It was indeed Jas Grant, cousin of President Tony Wilson and the very person they were here primarily to et.
The rich ladies had already pulled Elly Campbell over to greet him, seemingly assimilating her into their little clique and outright ignoring the Baker mother and daughter.
Adam Jones watched his wife being led away, feeling rather displeased.
He had finally been able to openly display affection for his wife, and here were these Gresias ssing it up.
Seeing Elly Campbell, a discarded woman, receiving such a warm welco while she herself was being mocked and ostracized filled Sophie Baker with rage.
How blind these foolish won were; didn’t they know who they should really be trying to please?
She caught sight of Adam Jones still standing in place, his gaze darkly fixed on Elly Campbell, thinking it was due to the recent troubles caused by Elly Campbell that had upset him, and an idea struck her.
She stepped closer to Adam Jones without saying a word, attempting to create an illusion that she was indeed Mrs. Jones.
Even if it was just for a brief mont, it would satisfy her petty vanity.
“Adam, I didn’t expect my sister to tear us apart in front of all those people, or to be mocked and ridiculed by those ladies…”
She deliberately turned the ladies’ mocking her into mocking both her and Adam Jones.
The purpose, of course, was to fla Adam’s anger towards Elly Campbell.
A proud man like Adam Jones, how could he endure being mocked by a few nonsensical old won?
Sophie Baker was truly foolish, foolish enough to think that everyone else in the world was as foolish as her, able to detect her blatant attempts at sowing discord.
