Chapter 816: 816. Top-notch Gathering Chapter 816: 816. Top-notch Gathering “Grandpa, Aunt.”
Elly Campbell hurried forward to greet them, and Adam Jones imdiately followed, greeting them as well.
“Great-grandfather, Second Aunt.”
The sweet voice of little William Campbell made Old Master Campbell laugh out loud.
Soon, Old Master Campbell was personally escorted inside by Master Clark.
To Elly’s disbelief, not long after Old Master Campbell entered the house, Jas Campbell also arrived, and he even brought lody Baker, his mistress.
The reason lody Baker was referred to as a mistress was that Jas had always wanted to marry lody, but various issues kept cropping up, leaving Jas frazzled and repeatedly delaying the wedding.
Seeing Jas bringing lody to Master Clark’s grand birthday celebration, many who knew him pointed and whispered.
Jas really lacked integrity, bringing his mistress to celebrate his forr father-in-law’s birthday—was this intended to embarrass his forr father-in-law or his ex-wife?
Indeed, he just kept humiliating himself wherever he went.
Upon seeing Jas and lody, Elly’s originally smiling face instantly turned cold.
This Jas truly never learned from his mistakes. Had she been too lax with him, letting him idle about again, and now he stirred up such an embarrassnt at her grandfather’s grand birthday?
Elly also noticed Jas and lody, her eyes narrowing inconspicuously as she leaned in and whispered into Old Master Campbell’s ear:
“Dad, big brother is here.”
From Elly’s exasperated expression, Old Master Campbell imdiately knew that the disgraceful one had done sothing embarrassing again.
Indeed, following Elly’s gaze, he saw Jas and lody, hand in hand as they entered. Old Master Campbell’s face darkened instantly.
“This worthless scoundrel! He really dares to bring anyone out.”
His face darkened, but he was stopped by Master Clark standing nearby.
When Jas entered with his mistress, Master Clark had already noticed, choosing not to intervene partly because today was his grand birthday with guests around, and he couldn’t allow the scene to beco too unsightly.
Moreover, his daughter had long divorced Jas. Regardless of whom he brought, as a forr father-in-law, Master Clark had no right to chastise him.
Otherwise, it would only make Jas think that his daughter was still not over him, clinging to him even after divorce.
“Brother, let them be. Jenna has divorced him, he can bring whoever he likes; after all, they’ve co to celebrate my birthday.”
“That’s easy for you to say, but it’s still irritating to see.”
Old Master Campbell could hardly stand it, reflecting that he should never have let Jenna marry such a wretch and suffer.
The more Old Master Campbell thought about it, the more he felt he had wronged Master Clark; and seeing that wretch flaunting himself carelessly, he felt deeply embarrassed before Old Master Campbell.
After so calming words from Master Clark, Old Master Campbell managed to quell his anger, but his gaze remained fixedly on Jas and lody.
As for Elly, although initially irritated at the sight of Jas and lody, she soon reconsidered—her mother had already divorced Jas, and to fuss over this would suggest her mother hadn’t moved on, inadvertently giving Jas so absurd sense of superiority.
She decided it was better out of sight, out of mind, and withdrew her gaze.
Just then, mbers of the Green Clan also appeared, with Thompson Shuyi linking arms with Cam Green, dressed elegantly and majestically.
