Chapter 403: 403. Why take the generous offer of others for granted_1 Chapter 403: 403. Why take the generous offer of others for granted_1 “What’s the use of seeking out Elly, only to humiliate yourself? The illegitimate daughter has broken the law, and now you co begging the legitimate daughter for rcy? You really have so nerve.”
Elly, sitting on the sofa, lazily lifted her eyelids and cast a contemptuous glance at Jas Campbell, giving him a look that said “you’re an idiot” as he prepared to go upstairs.
“Elly, shut your mouth!”
Jas Campbell clenched his teeth, forcibly suppressing the urge to strangle Elly in his rage.
Seeing Elly shrug her shoulders helplessly and spread her hands—
“Since you’re hell-bent on humiliating yourself, what can I say? Of course, I wish you a peaceful rest in your grave.”
“Elly!”
“Jas!”
lody Baker, afraid of complications, quickly stepped forward to calm her down.
She now suspected that Elly was deliberately provoking Jas just to prevent him from having the opportunity to beg that vile woman Elly for rcy.
Jas Campbell glared at Elly fiercely before going upstairs in a fury.
Elly had just finished applying dicine to her cheek when she heard Jas Campbell standing at the door, calling her, “Elly, open the door, I need to talk to you.”
His tone was much softer than before.
Pretty flexible, after all.
Elly raised an eyebrow and chose to ignore him.
She went to take a leisurely bath, applied a face mask, and as she applied her skincare products, the spot where the coffee mug had hit still hurt enough to make her frown.
She wondered how Jas Campbell still had the face to co looking for her.
After changing into ho clothes and leaving her room, the sight of the man and woman standing outside her door startled her.
She had to admire the love Jas Campbell had for his daughter Sophie; he was really willing to grovel before the daughter he loathed for Sophie’s sake.
If it had been her younger self, she might have been so jealous of Sophie that she would have wanted to destroy her.
After waiting outside for so long, Jas finally saw Elly co out, forcefully suppressing the anger in his heart, daring not to let it show.
“I have sothing to tell you.”
Jas approached, his tone much gentler.
“I have nothing to say to you.”
Elly sidestepped him and headed downstairs.
“Elly!”
Jas wanted to reach out and grab her, but Elly dodged him with ease.
Knowing that Jas was determined to use her connections, Elly beca increasingly impatient.
“What exactly are you trying to do?”
This ti, it was not Jas who spoke first, but lody Baker; with reddened eyes, she stepped forward, bowed her head, and pleaded:
“Miss Campbell, it’s all my fault, and I don’t mind if you hate or bla , or even if you target , but Sophie is your sister by the sa father. I’m begging you, please plead with President Jones on her behalf, forgive her just this once, will you?”
“Sophie betrayed Jones Corporation’s secrets. What’s the point of asking ? I’m just Adam’s ex-wife after all. Why should I show rcy for soone else’s sake? Besides, don’t try to pull that bloodline argunt on ; it only makes more eager to crush Sophie!”
lody Baker listened to Elly’s arrogant tone, feeling incensed inside, but she knew that appealing to Elly was the only hope now.
At the sa ti, she knew that Elly, hard-hearted as she was, wouldn’t be easily swayed by a pitiful act. Looking at Elly, she said through gritted teeth:
“So what exactly do we need to do for Adam to let Sophie off the hook?”
These words from lody Baker actually made Elly laugh.
“Are you confused about sothing? The matter with Sophie is Adam’s business. Whether or not he wants to forgive her is up to him. What’s the point in begging ? Also…”
