Chapter 1223: 1223. Such a familiar TV drama line
Sophia Green stood at the entrance of an antique shop called Dragon Pavilion, and in front of the CEO’s wife, demanded that the CEO take her away.
Absolutely shaless, to the point of destroying one’s values.
That Sophia Green was clearly trying to seduce their CEO, thankfully Adam stood firm and wasn’t led astray by her.
Unexpectedly, her stepmother actually ca to them in person, and even acted like she was part of the CEO’s own family.
Pah!
The daughter’s unrequited attempt to seduce soone failed, and now she simply assud she was the CEO’s mother-in-law.
Where were these two from as stepmother and daughter? They were clearly biological, one more oddity than the other.
The receptionist inwardly held Mrs. Thompson’s words and behavior in disdain, but still politely replied,
“The response from the secretarial departnt reflects the CEO’s wishes; if you have an urgent matter and need to see the CEO, please make an appointnt with the secretarial departnt.”
Mrs. Thompson had always felt a sense of superiority over others because she was Adam Jones’s birth mother.
In her subconscious, no matter how strained her relationship with Adam was, they were still mother and son.
The bond between mother and son doesn’t last overnight in anger.
When she ca to Jones Corporation looking for Adam Jones, she should have been soone who could go upstairs anyti, not soone who had to go through a receptionist to apply and then see if the people upstairs were willing to et her.
Hearing the receptionist repeatedly ntion appointnts, Mrs. Thompson beca infuriated.
She felt that it wasn’t that her son didn’t want to see her; it was these unappreciative Jones Corporation employees taking liberties.
Mrs. Thompson simply threw her bag onto the receptionist’s desk and said, “Fine, an appointnt it is, I want to make an appointnt now, tell Adam Jones to see imdiately.”
Receptionist: “…”
Employees of Jones passing by: “…”
Damn, this woman was Cam Green’s step wife, wasn’t she? What gave her the right to throw her weight around at Jones Corporation?
And she wanted their CEO to et her?
Is she crazy or what?
The receptionist, who was supposed to talk to her with a pleasant deanor, ended up feeling a lot more contempt and impatience after seeing her act so nonsensically.
“Sorry, without an appointnt, you can’t see our CEO.”
“You…”
Mrs. Thompson saw the receptionist’s firm attitude and her face darkened imdiately.
At the Jones Family’s house, she was bullied by a servant and several watchdogs; and here, even a lowly receptionist dared to speak to her in this manner.
“Do you know who I am, how dare you speak to like this!”
Receptionist: “…”
Such a familiar line from TV dramas.
Was she also going to claim she was the Empress Dowager of Jones Corporation?
The receptionist smiled faintly, still wearing that standardized formulaic smile, “Yes, I know, you are Mrs. Green.”
Her title of Mrs. Green was normally laden with a hint of sarcasm.
No matter how famous Cam Green was in the cultural circle, these ordinary people really had nothing to do with him.
No matter how impressive Cam Green was, it had no impact on them.
The underlying ssage was, “You are Mrs. Green, and why should I care!”
Mrs. Thompson this ti wasn’t foolish; she clearly heard the mockery in the receptionist’s words, her face contorted with anger.
If she claid that she was their CEO’s birth mother now, would these blind folks dare to treat her with the sa attitude?
Several tis, she felt the impulse.
But she didn’t dare.
She knew all too well the storm of abuse she’d face if she acted on impulse.
Mrs. Thompson held back her anger and with a resentful glare at the receptionist, she unwillingly turned and walked towards the waiting area, planning to wait for Adam Jones to finish work and confront him.
Just then, a surprised male voice ca from behind, “Mrs. Green?”
