Chapter 868: 868. She is too thick-skinned. Chapter 868: 868. She is too thick-skinned. When lody Baker saw that Jas Campbell’s gaze was constantly on Jenna Clark, she finally couldn’t hold back and said:
“Jas, what are you looking at?”
Hearing lody’s voice, Jas seed a bit guilty and quickly shifted his gaze away from Jenna, saying:
“Nothing, just don’t know what that woman wants to talk to Dad about.”
The disdain deliberately shown in his words seed intended for lody to see, which particularly disgusted Elly Campbell when she overheard it.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw lody suddenly cover her lips and chuckle aningfully twice, saying:
“Mrs. Clark really appeals to all ages, doesn’t she? If I had Mrs. Clark’s skills, I wouldn’t be bullied like this.”
Her words were clearly intended for Elly to hear, especially since Jamuna Ford was standing not far away, his gaze drifting towards Jenna now and then. Even a blind man could see that Jamuna was interested in Jenna.
That once-divorced woman, dumped by Jas, why should such an outstanding man like her?
Compared to Jamuna, lody actually sowhat despised Jas.
So, seeing Jenna being favored by a man a hundred tis better than Jas after Jas had left her, it was inevitable that lody felt so imbalance in her heart.
Besides disgusting Elly with her words, she intended to annoy Jamuna.
Moreover, she dared to speak in this manner not only because Jas was by her side but also because Jamuna was there; she didn’t believe Elly would completely disregard her own image to do anything to her.
Unfortunately, that fool would never be able to clearly understand her own situation and status and always foolishly thought too highly of herself.
Being foolish was one thing; her thoughts were so low and dirty.
She always overestimated Elly’s tolerance for her, especially when she saw Elly’s chilling yet calm gaze towards her, lody’s eyes flickered with even more smugness.
Seeing Jamuna suddenly frown, lody was convinced that her words had successfully irritated him, and a subtly triumphant smile appeared in her eyes.
But before she could enjoy her triumph, the next mont, a loud slap resounded, stunning her completely.
Disbelieving, she covered her cheek, looking at Elly, whose face was coldly determined, “You… you hit again!”
“The stuff in your brain is just as shaless and vile as you are. You always assu others are as low as you are. Now, I really see what you are all about,” Elly snapped.
Elly’s voice was devoid of any warmth, each word forcefully articulated, making lody shiver at the icy look in her eyes.
lody had been hit by Elly before, even had her fingers broken, not knowing whether it was because Elly hadn’t been around her for a while causing her to forget her lessons, or whether she genuinely thought she would soday beco Mrs. Campbell and strut around, foolishly provoking her.
After being slapped by Elly, lody was both fearful and furious. She rushed up to retaliate, but Elly backhanded her again with a slap even more forceful and resonant than the first.
This slap, much harder and louder, showed the strength with which Elly had retaliated.
The slap left lody’s face swollen.
Seeing her vigorously shake her hand, her eyebrows tightly furrowed, Captain Adam Jones imdiately grabbed her hand anxiously, “What’s wrong?”
“Her face is too thick; it’s made my hand go numb.”
