Chapter 325: 325. Mother-daughter dispute_1

Melody Baker’s face turned pale, and even when Sophie Baker called her stupid, she did not retort.

"I was also overcome with anger yesterday, I couldn’t swallow the humiliation of being bullied by Elly Campbell..."

"Even if you wanted to trouble Elly Campbell, you shouldn’t have involved your uncle. Do you not know that his little ability can’t accomplish anything?"

Sophie Baker bit her lip in anger. She had already lost most of her chances with Adam, and if Lily Jones found out that she had sent someone to beat up Elly Campbell, then any good impression she had in Lily Jones’s eyes would vanish.

Although Lily Jones disliked Elly Campbell, she was not one to be unfair. If she were disappointed in Sophie, then Sophie’s chances of entering the Jones family would become even slimmer.

But the key issue at the moment wasn’t this... it was Adam Jones.

If he found out that it was her mother’s idea, would he let them off easily?

The more Sophie thought about it, the more scared she became. Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "Mom, I don’t care, if uncle gets caught, I won’t help him. You figure it out yourself."

Sophie was extremely vexed at that moment. She was even beginning to suspect that in her past life she must have done something atrocious to end up with a mistress for a mother and a worthless uncle.

With these thoughts, she couldn’t help but feel jealous of Elly Campbell.

The true young lady of the Campbell family, not only did she have the Old Master’s protection, but she also had a capable biological mother.

Not to mention, her maternal grandparents, her uncles—each one was a person of status and position. Yet when it came to her...

Even if Sophie refused to admit it, every person by Elly Campbell’s side was stronger than her.

Thinking of this, she scoffed with jealousy and hate, "If Elly Campbell had a bunch of people holding her back like I do, she wouldn’t be any more glorious than me."

Melody Baker was already scared by Sophie’s earlier warning, so when she heard the undisguised disgust in her daughter’s words, she was first taken aback, then her face showed disbelief.

"Sophie, what do you mean by that? Do you think I’m holding you back?"

"Isn’t it true? If you hadn’t been a mistress, I wouldn’t have become a bastard everyone despises and looks down upon. If you had the capability of Jenna Clark, I wouldn’t need to lick people’s boots for resources or watch others’ faces. Aren’t all these things your doing?"

Every time Sophie recalled the humiliation she suffered in front of Elly Campbell, she would become insanely jealous.

She always thought, if she had switched mothers with Elly Campbell, if she were the true young lady of the Campbell family, then she would surely be as arrogant as Elly Campbell.

Why, oh why, wasn’t her biological mother Jenna Clark, why was she just an illegitimate daughter who couldn’t be presented in society!

The more Sophie thought about it, the more hateful she felt, and the more she found her own mother Melody Baker displeasing.

Melody Baker could never have imagined that her usually obedient daughter would despise her origins, would look down on her like this?

"You look down upon me? Sophie, I am your biological mother."

She stood up from the sofa in anger, "Yes, I became a disgraced mistress, and I might not be much, but I am your mother. Even if I have wronged the whole world, I have not wronged you. Without me, do you think you could have such a wealthy life today?"

"Think about your classmates who wear clothes worth a few tens of dollars. Yes, their mothers are lawful wives, and they walk with their heads high and chests out, but what of it? Are they living better than you? Do they have more resources than you?"
