Chapter 186: 186. San Er visited_1 Chapter 186: 186. San Er visited_1 If the child’s mother were just an ordinary girl and Adam was just playing around, even if he had an illegitimate child, they could accept that. After all, in their circles of the wealthy elite, having a child out of wedlock was not such an unusual thing.
But if the child’s mother was from the Campbell family, with Old Master and the Campbell Corporation behind her, it would not be so easy for them to contend with a Campbell family mistress.
In their hearts, many people began to give up their plans.
Elly was not far from these people, so their discussions naturally reached her ears. Their words were no different from those online; most presud that William was Adam’s illegitimate son.
Her expression darkened slightly as she coldly glanced at Adam. At that mont, he also looked over to her, and their eyes t, each with a different expression.
Today was Old Master’s birthday, and Elly did not want to ruin Old Master’s mood, so after exchanging a look with Adam, she moved her gaze away.
Guests continued to arrive to celebrate Old Master’s birthday, yet the eldest son of Old Master, Jas Campbell, was nowhere to be seen.
People whispered about Jas, noting that as Old Master’s eldest son, he should have been the host, yet he arrived later than so guests. Such an undignified behavior could only be expected from a fool like Jas.
But upon further thought, it seed hardly surprising, considering that Jas had flaunted his illegitimate daughter around, what unreliable thing wouldn’t he do?
Just then, Jas’s black Lincoln slowly drove in, and all eyes turned to the vehicle.
When the car stopped and the two won followed Jas out of the back seat, the guests imdiately understood.
They had long known about the divorce of Jas from his forr wife. He had made the affair well-known when it happened, and now the two won he brought with him: one seen previously at gatherings was his illegitimate daughter, and the other was likely his mistress.
Bringing a mistress and an illegitimate daughter to Old Master’s birthday feast… Jas’s actions were truly indecent.
The crowd glanced toward Jenna Clark, who stood not far off with the Clark Family elders, their expressions subtly mixed with a hint of sympathy.
But Jenna herself seed completely indifferent, chatting and laughing with the other guests.
As for Sophie and her daughter, faced with the scrutinizing eyes of the crowd, they were instantly filled with a sense of vanity from being the center of attention.
Sophie, thinking about soon becoming an official mber of the Campbell family, a true lady of the upper class, while Elly beca an outcast due to her parents’ divorce, could not contain her excitent.
Her gaze fell on the elegant ladies of wealthy families, thinking that she would soon be one of these high-society won, and the idea of people fawning over her filled her with delight.
With that thought, Sophie couldn’t help but straighten her back, her chin tilting up slightly in pride.
Her semblance of nobility was a joke in the eyes of the true upper-class won present.
Old Master, who had been speaking with several military and political leaders, had also received the news, his expression imdiately grew serious, and soon after, he saw Jas approaching with Sophie and her daughter.
“Dad, happy birthday, wishing you happiness and good health.”
