Chapter 1099: 1099. Disloyal little thing

"Elly Campbell, what are you going to do?"

His eyes darkened, his expression visibly displeased.

"This old woman always speaks in a way that disgusts me. I don’t want to continue listening to her filth. I’m afraid that if I keep watching her act, it’ll make me lose my appetite and I won’t be able to eat for days and nights."

Mrs. Thompson’s face turned dark, and she bit back:

"Elly Campbell, I am your mother-in-law. Do you think this is the way to talk about your elders?"

"Sorry, but don’t flatter yourself. You’re nowhere near worthy of being my mother-in-law."

Elly Campbell crossed her arms in front of her chest, her eyebrows raised as she looked at Mrs. Thompson with undisguised scorn in her eyes.

Confident in Adam’s unusual response at this moment, Mrs. Thompson wasn’t afraid of Elly, smiling she said:

"Whether I am worthy or not isn’t for you to decide. I am Adam’s mother, and as long as you are Mrs. Jones, I am your mother-in-law."

After Mrs. Thompson finished speaking, Elly laughed, the dismissive smile on her face growing even more profound.

"That’s just perfect because very soon, I will no longer be Mrs. Jones. Let whoever wants to deal with a shameless woman like you be your daughter-in-law."

She gave Mrs. Thompson a once-over, and laughed:

"After all, there are plenty in this world who are willing to work as janitors."

When Mrs. Thompson heard Elly’s words, could her anger be so great that her nose would twist out of shape?

Being her daughter-in-law equated to being a janitor?

What did she mean by that? Was she calling her trash, or was she calling her son trash?

"Adam, listen to her. What does she mean by this? She’s not only insulting me but you as well!"

She turned to complain to Adam, but unfortunately, Adam had no intention of dealing with her, his gaze fiercely fixed on Elly.

Elly, with no intention of dealing with them either, turned to leave but Adam tightly grasped her wrist.

Elly frowned, looked up into Adam’s dissatisfied eyes, and said:

"Adam Jones, what are you doing?"

"So you were just going to leave me here and walk away?"

His voice was low, the tone slightly cold.

"Didn’t I tell you, I don’t want to be so disgusted by that old woman I can’t eat?"

So, you’re letting me stay here to be disgusted by her alone?

You ungrateful little thing.

Elly clearly detected the dissatisfaction hidden in Adam’s eyes. Her lips curved imperceptibly, and she coldly said:

"President Jones, if you like to be disgusted, please leave me out of it."

"Elly Campbell, don’t go too far. No matter what you say, she’s still Adam’s biological mother. How can you be so arrogant?"

This time, Sophia Green spoke up before Adam could.

Not only was Mrs. Thompson aware, but Sophia also sensed something strange was going on.

Why would her father tell such blatant lies in front of Adam, especially when Adam knew Mrs. Thompson had been unfaithful for a while, yet his attitude towards her had improved significantly since then.

Despite feeling this was odd, Sophia did not miss the chance to show off in front of Adam.

Such a great opportunity to make her presence felt, how could she let it pass by.

"What’s it to you what I say to my husband, tag-along?"

Elly played the part of the haughty and domineering bad daughter-in-law to the hilt, lifting her chin arrogantly, the term "tag-along" slipping out.

"You..."

Upon hearing the words "tag-along," Sophia became furious, wanting to claw at Elly’s haughty face that still managed to look so good.

But she held back her temper and didn’t rush forward.

Adam was already tired of Elly; that’s why this worthless woman was acting so recklessly and letting herself go.

But Sophia was different; she needed to figure out how to make Adam like her and couldn’t afford to be as arrogant as Elly was.

Thinking this, she could only bite her lower lip frustratedly, glaring angrily at Elly, she said:

"Why... why are you calling me a tag-along? My mother passed away, do you have to bully people like that?"

Saying this, her eyes began to redden.

"You keep calling Adam ’brother’, but you’re not really Mrs. Thompson’s own daughter, nor my real sister-in-law. To me, you’re nothing but an annoying tag-along! Scram! Stop being an eyesore in front of me!"
