Chapter 190: 190. Go home to inherit a huge family fortune_1

Sophie Baker’s face darkened, and she called out again in a suppressed voice, "Sister, do you really dislike seeing me that much?"

Elly Campbell turned off the email on her phone, picked up her mobile, and made a call to Greenhill Ainley, "Mr. Ainley, you can make decisions regarding company affairs, there’s no need to inform me anymore... Of course, I trust your capabilities."

Sophie Baker watched Elly Campbell speak on the phone with a beaming smile, while completely ignoring her, and instantly felt her anger with nowhere to vent.

Yet she was too stubborn to just walk away, so she bit her lip and waited there, thinking: So you’re pretending not to see me? I will definitely not leave.

When Elly Campbell hung up, Sophie went forward with a glass of wine and a smile, ready to speak, but someone beat her to it, "Elly."

Elly Campbell turned to look and saw James Churchill in a suit, holding a wine glass and approaching her.

"Doctor Matt, long time no see."

Elly Campbell lifted her eyebrows in greeting.

"You have the nerve to say that, resigning from the hospital without even telling me, I only found out from the director."

James Churchill stood before her, his handsome face tinged with dissatisfaction.

Elly Campbell smiled wryly and shrugged, "I had no choice, my mother has only me for a daughter, I have to go back and inherit her vast estate," she said.

James Churchill had heard about Elly Campbell’s move to Alaska, and with the network of the Churchill Family, finding out her whereabouts wasn’t difficult, so naturally, James Churchill knew what Elly Campbell was doing in Alaska.

"How can your words sound so punchable?"

"The feeling is mutual. If Second Young Master Churchill no longer wishes to be a doctor, he’d also have to go back and inherit the family fortune worth hundreds of billions. My little estate can’t compare to yours."

James Churchill then began to laugh. His presence emanated a smart yet rogue charm, quite opposite to Adam Jones’s cold demeanor, especially when he laughed, easily attracting the gaze of those around them.

Sophie Baker observed the interaction between Elly Campbell and James Churchill. She wasn’t very familiar with James Churchill, but from their conversation, she could tell that his family background was anything but ordinary.

She couldn’t understand why all the outstanding men seemed to gravitate towards Elly Campbell. What was so good about her? Was it just because she was the daughter of the Campbell Family?

Now that Dad had divorced that plain Jane, what was Elly Campbell anyway? Sooner or later she’d be swept out by Dad. What was there to be proud of?

Feeling ignored by Elly Campbell and the other, Sophie Baker felt aggrieved and finally couldn’t help interrupting, "Sister, we’re going to be family soon. Why don’t you introduce me to your friend?"

The smirk on James Churchill’s face, which had been there before, vanished in an instant. When he didn’t smile, his cold aura was on par with Adam Jones’s.

"Elly, who is this? They don’t even understand basic manners. When others are speaking, how can one just rudely interrupt?"

James Churchill looked at Sophie Baker with undisguised disdain.

Sophie Baker’s face changed, and she glared at James Churchill with a venomous look in her eyes.

What did this Churchill mean by that? He had clearly seen her in the hospital before, and just a moment ago Dad had introduced her to so many guests. Did he not recognize her?

Was he deliberately trying to humiliate her?

Elly Campbell sipped the wine in her glass, glanced at Sophie Baker, and said, "That’s James Campbell’s illegitimate daughter from outside, oh, and by the way, the mistress is about to be legitimized."

James Churchill’s eyes shifted towards Sophie Baker with an ambiguous meaning and he laughed, "No wonder. Since she’s about to be legitimized, this lady should learn some basic etiquette. In the future, such impertinent interruptions should be avoided; it would be a shame to embarrass Uncle Campbell."
