Chapter 313: 313. Give Sophie Baker to Christopher Moore_1

Sophie Baker at this moment, realized this point profoundly.

Ever since she entered, Adam Jones’s gaze at Elly Campbell had been gentle and doting, not saying a single word nor even frowning at her blatant provocation toward Lily Jones.

"Are you done? If so, get out."

Adam Jones’s voice, devoid of any pity, reverberated afterward; he had not once looked at Sophie Baker, yet his intention to dismiss her was not concealed in the slightest.

Sophie Baker snapped back from the previous blow, took a deep breath, and managed to suppress the heart-piercing jealousy, walking up to Adam Jones.

"Adam, don’t blame Lily, blame me. I saw you were injured this morning and was a bit worried, so I mentioned it to Lily, not expecting her to be so worried about you that she rushed over here in such a hurry."

Sophie Baker had intended to convey to Adam Jones how anxious she was about him, and how her heart ached for his injuries, in the hope of softening his heart, but saw Adam Jones simply sneer dismissively upon hearing this.

"You really are quite meddlesome."

His words were laden with overt disdain and annoyance.

Sophie Baker had not expected her good intentions to be dismissed as meddling in Adam Jones’s eyes, and her complexion turned even paler in an instant.

Her eyes reddened as she looked at Adam Jones, filled with grievance and sorrow.

She bit her lower lip, as if only by doing so could she control her urge to cry.

"I’m... I’m sorry, I was being nosy."

She pursed her lips and walked over to Lily Jones, and in a hoarse voice said, "Lily, I should leave first."

"What are you leaving for? If anyone should leave, it’s that little bitch Elly Campbell!"

Lily Jones grabbed Sophie Baker, and seeing her look so aggrieved made Lily wish she could tear Elly Campbell to pieces.

"Lily Jones!"

Adam Jones’s face was incredibly dark and intimidating at that moment, as if he might throw Lily straight off the top floor if she said one more word.

"Since you feel so much pity for Miss Baker, why not have Christopher Moore take good care of her?"

Sophie Baker quickly turned her gaze to Adam Jones, her body reeling from the blow.

What did Adam Jones mean by that?

In his eyes, was Sophie Baker only suitable to be a disposable mistress, kicked around at will?

Was she not worthy to be a legitimate wife, a true lady of high society?

No matter how inferior Sophie Baker might be, she was still the legitimate second daughter of the Campbell family, many times more noble than that wretched Elly Campbell. How could he just kick her to someone else?

And Lily Jones was in disbelief, her eyes widening with fury, "Brother, what are you talking about? Christopher Moore is my husband, what terrible idea are you suggesting!"

"Oh? You can’t bear to offer your husband to someone else, so you set your sights on someone else’s husband?"

Adam Jones’s lips curled up, the coldness in his eyes becoming increasingly evident, "The principle of not imposing on others what you yourself do not desire, do I need to teach you that as your brother?"

As his words fell, the dark pupils slightly contracted, and the warning in his eyes caused Lily Jones to shudder uncontrollably.

It seemed that if she continued to persist, he would indeed resort to methods to have Sophie climb into Christopher Moore’s bed.

What a joke!

Lily Jones was both anxious and angry, but frustratingly, she had no way of dealing with her own brother.

She knew that if she continued to stay, she would only humiliate herself further; there was nothing her inhumane brother was incapable of doing.
