Chapter 715: 715. This is the misfortune of a family_1

How could he be so inconsiderate of his own mother’s reputation and tell such things to an outsider?

Daisy Thompson held some resentment against Adam Jones in her heart, but thinking that she had something to ask of her son this time, she managed to suppress her anger.

"I’m over the top? You’re the one who’s lost all sense of shame, and you’re afraid of what others will say?"

Elly Campbell snorted coldly, looking at Daisy Thompson, and said, "I don’t care what you’re planning to do by following Adam all the way to the island, but let me tell you, if you think you can manipulate him, don’t even think about it!"

Already infuriated and humiliated by having her affair exposed by her daughter-in-law, Daisy Thompson’s voice suddenly raised a few notches upon hearing Elly Campbell’s words, whether it was because she felt guilty or thought she was being wronged by Elly Campbell—

"Don’t falsely accuse me here. Adam is my flesh and blood; how could I possibly scheme against him? It’s our misfortune in the Jones Family to have a daughter-in-law like you who likes to sow discord."

Perhaps Elly Campbell was provoked too far by Daisy Thompson’s shamelessness, but for some reason, she now found herself laughing.

"I should also thank you for having left early on. The Old Lady having a daughter-in-law like you, that’s the real misfortune for our family."

Elly Campbell used Daisy Thompson’s words to retaliate.

"And moreover, Mrs. Thompson..."

She deliberately changed the address, feeling nauseous at the thought of calling her Mrs. Green any longer.

"I already mentioned it to Miss Green before, and I don’t mind repeating it for you now; I’m naturally rebellious and the worst at taking orders. Not to mention Adam is well past the age of being weaned, even if he really brings you back into the Jones Family, don’t expect to boss me around."

Having said that, and seeing Helen Melendy coming out of the hospital, she wasn’t in the mood for further idle talk with Daisy Thompson and walked directly towards Helen Melendy.

However, Daisy Thompson didn’t stop Elly Campbell just to argue with her; having been rebuked by someone younger, how could she let Elly walk away without saying her piece?

"Wait, I haven’t finished what I had to say."

Daisy Thompson stood with a stern face, extending her arm to block Elly Campbell’s path.

Elly Campbell looked down at the slender arm stretched out in front of her, smiled faintly, and said, "Go ahead, but I don’t have much time to watch you strut around talking nonsense. If you’re not going to get to the point, don’t waste my time."

"You..."

Daisy Thompson had just had a taste of Elly Campbell’s unforgiving tongue and her stubborn nature, knowing she wouldn’t gain any advantage over her and had no desire to engage in a war of words with her.

Stabilizing her emotions, she said, "I want to see Adam, pass a message to him for me."

Her tone softened a bit, but the air of self-importance remained unchanged, unaware of who had given her the confidence to still act high and mighty after being scolded by Elly Campbell.

Even Helen Melendy, who had come closer, couldn’t help but want to laugh, hearing Daisy Thompson’s presumptuous tone.

Adam Jones having a mother like that must be tough.

Then, she subconsciously thought of Harry Hall’s mother, Leanne Richards, and a shadow briefly passed through her eyes.

But quickly, she concealed her sorrow and stepped forward to stand beside Elly Campbell.

Daisy Thompson, upon seeing another stranger at Elly Campbell’s side, someone who seemed to be on good terms with Elly, feared that Elly could not keep her mouth shut and would talk about her past in front of others, could not help but frown.

Her gaze swept over Helen Melendy with a hint of hostility.
