Chapter 278: 278. Give him a thumbs up_1

Someone recognized Adam Jones and couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, and some people had even begun sneakily taking photos with their phones.

"President Jones and Miss Campbell are not closely related, so he definitely wouldn’t falsely accuse her of being a mistress without reason, which means that woman is indeed a bona fide mistress!"

"Right, that mistress’s daughter is only two months younger than the Miss. Damn!!! CEO Campbell is truly a disgrace among men, his wife was only two months pregnant and he already cheated with a mistress, and for twenty-six years, holy shit!!"

"What a disgusting pair of dogs, I spit!"

"Bringing his illegitimate daughter and the vicious mistress to lecture his legitimate daughter, CEO Campbell is really something."

"The mistress and illegitimate daughter’s behavior is also too unsightly."

"..."

The curses around them were more cutting with each word, by comparison, the accusations against Elly Campbell earlier seemed like nothing.

Elly Campbell hadn’t expected things to turn so quickly just because of Adam Jones’s few seemingly inconsequential but very "to the point" words.

She looked at Adam Jones with a slightly stunned expression, just in time to see him glance at her and secretly wink at her when she looked his way.

Elly Campbell: "..."

Although she found Adam Jones very annoying, she still felt like giving him a thumbs up for his actions just now.

When James Campbell and the two women came here, how could they have expected such a sudden turn of events? Weren’t they pointing fingers at Elly Campbell and scolding her in the beginning?

Just because of Adam’s few words, everything changed?

The Baker mother and daughter, hearing the increasingly offensive curses around them, felt so disgraced they wished they could just burrow into the ground.

Why would Adam Jones help Elly Campbell? Weren’t they divorced?

At this moment, the waiter came over, approached Adam Jones, and asked in a low voice if they should start serving the dishes. Seeing Adam Jones nod, the waiter then looked towards James Campbell and the two women and said:

"CEO Campbell, if there’s nothing else, please leave now, we still need to eat."

Adam’s words reminded James Campbell of what Elly had said earlier on the phone about "not wanting to lose her appetite," making his face turn even more ashen.

How did he end up fathering such a beast? All this time, no matter the situation, she never gave him any face.

But now, with all the accusing voices around him, staying and saying more seemed unlikely to salvage the situation, especially with Adam Jones there supporting Elly Campbell.

James Campbell thought it over and could only lead the Baker mother and daughter away, while angry and under the condemning stares of the onlookers.

Their escape with tails between their legs was quite a laughable sight.

Amidst the condemning and spitting gazes of the people, the three left the restaurant in a sorry state.

"Dad, are we just going to let Mom getting hurt by Elly Campbell go like this?"

Sophie Baker couldn’t help feeling resentful. Thinking of Elly Campbell’s triumphant demeanor and the powerful Adam Jones standing by her side protecting her, Sophie’s feelings of resentment grew even stronger.

Jealousy raged within her like a fire-breathing dragon.

Why, no matter what the circumstances were, could that bitch Elly Campbell always come out on top?

Earlier, outside the restaurant when they saw Elly Campbell, they had already calculated to shame Elly, and she didn’t even get to enjoy a few seconds of happiness at the sound of people scolding Elly before Adam Jones’s few words brought her back down to earth; how could she accept that?

Now, it wasn’t merely that they hadn’t gained any advantage over Elly, but they also got caught by the busybody onlookers getting called mistresses and illegitimate daughters, uttering curses. If she didn’t make Elly see some color, she wouldn’t be able to accept it.
