Chapter 415: 415. Just like a retard_1
Old Lady Jones looked at Lily with a look that one might give to someone with an intellectual disability. It was no wonder that her own grandson had no patience to talk to her anymore, even she, the grandmother who had raised her from childhood, couldn’t bother to waste too much breath on her.
She didn’t want to explain too much to Lily either. After all, the girl’s thinking was so stubbornly linear; even if she did explain, Lily wouldn’t listen.
So, she just looked at Lily and said indifferently, "So? Is that your reason for finding your brother a mistress?"
"Grandma, how can you talk about Sophie like that? No matter what, Sophie saved my life. If it weren’t for her, I would have died long ago and wouldn’t be here talking to you."
Lily felt there was nothing wrong with being grateful and could not understand why even her grandmother would not acknowledge that.
Old Lady Jones looked at her calmly and suddenly let out a cold laugh, "You remember Sophie Baker saving your life, but how come you don’t remember Elly saving both your life and your child’s life?"
She had expected that Lily would at least hesitate before responding to her, but Lily almost subconsciously retorted:
"She’s a doctor, she gets paid by the hospital. Isn’t it her duty to save me?"
Old Lady Jones’s gaze turned visibly disappointed, "Heh! By that logic, Sophie has gotten far more from the Jones family than Elly did for saving both you and your child’s lives. Haven’t you thought about that?"
"Can you even compare the two?"
Lily tried to argue back but saw that the Old Lady had already waved her hand impatiently, "Enough!"
"Lily, you are a mother now. Instead of properly taking care of your child at home, you’re constantly jumping around with that Sophie Baker. If you don’t restrain yourself, you better not come to the Jones family anymore."
Lily’s eyes widened in disbelief, unable to comprehend that even her grandmother could say such a thing.
She knew her grandmother and brother must have been deceived by that bitch Elly Campbell, and there was no use saying anything more. She could only speak with a lowered voice:
"Fine, Grandma, I won’t say any more, but my brother is really going too far this time. How could he let Sophie go to jail?"
She shook Old Lady Jones’s arm, pleading, "Grandma, please talk to my brother; let him let Sophie off. Sophie is such a delicate girl; if she goes to jail, she will definitely be bullied."
Old Lady Jones had become thoroughly annoyed with Lily and impatiently shook off her hand, saying coldly:
"Let her off? Do you know what she’s done to Jones Corporation? She dared to leak Jones Corporation’s commercial secrets, causing untold losses to us, and you still have the nerve to plead for her. Are you a Jones or a Baker?"
Lily knew about the leakage of the starting bid at Butterfly Square; she had heard about it too, and although she felt Sophie leaking her brother’s company’s commercial secrets was wrong,
it was just a minor loss for the Jones Corporation, something they could completely handle.
Could it be that her life and her brother’s, combined, were worth less than the little money lost by the Jones Corporation because of Sophie?
Lily truly couldn’t understand her own brother’s actions and, thinking so, she blurted out her thoughts aloud.
"It’s just one or two billion, it’s nothing to the Jones Corporation, does brother really have to be so ruthless..."
"Lily Jones!!"
The Old Lady’s face darkened instantly upon hearing Lily’s thoughtless words, shocked that her granddaughter, whom she had raised herself, could say something so foolish.
