Chapter 191: 191. This mistress is quite humorous_1 Chapter 191: 191. This mistress is quite humorous_1 Sophie Baker’s face alternated between white and red, her hands clenched into fists as she glared at Elly Campbell and Jas Churchill with venomous eyes, grinding her teeth in fury.
Thinking that she would soon switch identities with Elly Campbell, Sophie felt her spine stiffen instantly, no longer feeling as afraid of her as before.
With a mocking sneer, she looked at Elly and said with an air of petty triumph, “Elly, you still haven’t faced reality, even now. Your mother has divorced dad, and from now on, my mother will be Mrs. Campbell. You have no choice but to please and my mother if you want to continue having good days in the Campbell family, or else…”
After speaking, she sized up Elly’s calm deanor with a few cold laughs.
The corner of Elly’s mouth curved into a faint smile. Her inscrutable gaze rested on Sophie’s arrogantly smug face as if she was looking at soone with a ntal deficiency.
Sophie frowned when she saw that Elly remained undisturbed after her speech.
Elly had nothing left, so why was she still so fearless? Did she think she was still the Campbell family’s young miss?
Jas Churchill burst into laughter, his roguish gaze falling on Elly as he said, “I was wondering why you lacked any sense of humor, but it seems CEO Campbell’s codic genes were all inherited by this illegitimate daughter.”
If other companies needed the Campbell’s goodwill to show respect to Jas Campbell, the Churchill family certainly did not.
Jas Churchill’s father, Thomas Churchill, was also a prominent figure in the business world. Jas didn’t have to flatter anyone; he said whatever he wanted.
All the more so when it ca to Elly daring to provoke him without even understanding what she was—she was seeking her own demise!
Sophie’s expression stiffened. How could she not understand the aning behind Jas’s words?
Was she the one being mocked? Who was the real joke here?
Elly thought that, having separated from the Campbell family, no longer bearing Jas Campbell’s daughter’s identity, she was sothing special.
Sophie sneered at Jas’s fawning behavior toward Elly, her face colored with mockery, “Doctor Matt, what’s the use of fawning over my sister like this? She’s still a married woman. Are you planning on being my sister’s howrecker?”
Elly’s eyes grew colder as she listened to Sophie’s words, her gaze sweeping over Sophie’s presumptuous face. Just as she was about to speak, Jas Churchill cut her off.
Jas Churchill’s laughter was warm and natural, but when his smile faded, the chill that emanated from him was just as intimidating as Adam Jones.
Watching Jas’s smile gradually disappear, Sophie felt a shiver down her spine, her face revealing a trace of fear, her steps subconsciously moving backward.
“Miss Baker overstates my talents. I could never learn the skills you and your mother possess in this lifeti, let alone put them to use,” he said.
“You…”
Sophie turned pale with anger. What she hated most was hearing that her mother was the other woman and that she was an illegitimate child. Even though her mother had beco the official Mrs. Campbell, in the eyes of others, she was still the “other woman turned official,” and no one would truly recognize them as legitimate.
Whereas Elly didn’t have to do anything. Even now, as her mother had divorced dad, she was still the rightful young miss of the Campbell family, not the illegitimate daughter others spoke ill of.
“Elly, all the good things in this world won’t stay with one person forever. Once dad marries my mom, everything about the Campbells will be mine—not just the Campbells, but your man, Adam Jones, will also be mine.”
