Chapter 275: 275. Bao Xiaosan exudes a sense of superiority_1 Chapter 275: 275. Bao Xiaosan exudes a sense of superiority_1 Adam Jones, this man, although he was Jas Campbell’s junior, every ti faced him, Jas always felt as if he were slightly shorter in comparison. With each encounter, that oppressive feeling intensified.
lody Baker and Sophie Baker, originally thinking they had the backing of Jas Campbell to deal with Elly Campbell, never expected Elly to be together with Adam Jones.
Especially since they could distinctly feel that Adam Jones arrived with a barely concealed displeasure.
“What a coincidence, CEO Campbell?”
Adam Jones’s eyebrows moved slightly as he looked toward Jas Campbell, while the Baker mother and daughter were outright ignored by him.
Jas Campbell’s expression was awkward, his gaze inadvertently sweeping over to Elly’s face and noticing her disdain, which imdiately provoked his anger.
Seeking to recover his dignity from being overshadowed by Adam Jones, he looked to gain ground through Elly, even though he really didn’t have much confidence deep down.
“Adam, you wouldn’t know, but Elly truly broke my heart.”
The originally furious Jas Campbell suddenly adopted a deanor that suggested disappointnt and sorrow toward his offspring, which looked quite ridiculous.
Elly’s gaze held a touch of doubt as she studied Jas, guessing he was there to avenge the Baker mother and daughter, yet curious about how exactly he intended to do it.
The attitude they showed upon entering the door seed as if they were trying to draw everyone’s attention, as if being a mistress or associated with one had beco a source of pride for them.
Adam Jones moved his eyebrows slightly, but didn’t pick up on what Jas Campbell said.
Visibly embarrassed, Jas saw that Adam was silent and then turned his eyes to Elly, saying, “Elly, what do you want Dad to do to make you happy?”
If Elly did not know the kind of man Jas Campbell was, she might have been deceived by his seemingly earnest concern.
It was surprising to see Jas Campbell’s acting skills; it would be a sha not to take them to the stage.
“Dad, what are you talking about?”
Upon hearing Elly call him “Dad,” Jas Campbell couldn’t help but shudder.
Unless she was manipulating him, Elly wouldn’t address him that way. He rembered the last ti she called him “Dad,” and the mory… wasn’t pleasant.
Jas looked at Elly, whose scorn had vanished, replaced with an innocent look, and he imdiately beca wary.
Adam Jones also turned his gaze toward her at that mont.
Jas Campbell stared cautiously at Elly’s innocent face for a while, careful with his words, he said:
“Dad knows you don’t like your Auntie Susan, but your mom and I have already been divorced for over half a year. Why can’t you accept it? Previously, you verbally insulted Auntie Susan. She considered you as acting out like a childish person and didn’t hold it against you, but this ti you’ve gone too far. How could you break soone’s fingers with your own hands?”
Jas Campbell’s tone wasn’t harsh; though he posed a question, it carried a slight tint of grievance.
Looking at lody Baker, after hearing what Jas Campbell said, her eyes cooperated by reddening as if she’d indeed faced a trendous injustice.
She also “perfectly” stepped forward to tug at Jas Campbell’s arm, her eyes filled with forbearance and sorrow, choking out, “Let’s just go, brother Jas. I’m alright. Let’s leave.”
As she spoke, her eyes grew redder, giving the impression of a poor stepmother who had been long oppressed by an ill-behaved stepdaughter.
“lody, don’t indulge her too much. This ti she broke your fingers, next ti who knows if she might outright break your leg.”
