Chapter 729: 729. Even the reverse sticker is so ugly_1

Before she left, she still wore a look of deep reluctance, her eyes flickering toward Adam Jones with unspoken words, her gaze filled with grievance and heartache, as if the accusation of her eloping with another man had been a slanderous fabrication by others.

"Adam, then I’ll be leaving first, I..."

Daisy Thompson tried to say something more, but noticed that Adam Jones was no longer looking at her. Instead, he turned and draped an arm over Elly Campbell’s shoulder, taking her into the house without looking back.

Watching the couple’s retreating backs, both Daisy Thompson and Sophia Green gritted their teeth in hatred, but even more so, they felt a profound sense of injustice.

Sophia Green was merely green with envy towards Elly Campbell, but it was Daisy Thompson who truly felt aggrieved.

In her eyes, that outstanding, wealthy, and powerful man was her own flesh and blood; without her giving birth to him, there would be no Adam Jones today.

How could he be so kind to an outsider, yet treat his own mother as if she were an enemy?

At this moment, Daisy Thompson felt no shame about having abandoned her children and taken away her late husband’s money while his body was still warm.

Leaving the villa where Adam Jones lived and returning to the villa arranged by Douglas Turnbaugh, the gentle facade that Sophia Green had maintained all along was instantly replaced by an icy coldness.

Her gaze toward Daisy Thompson no longer bore the previous affection of a filial daughter.

"Utterly useless. Not only did you fail to handle your son, but you’ve even let your daughter-in-law trample over you. Such a fool you are to have given birth to a son like Adam Jones, it’s imaginable how strong Henry Jones’ genes must be."

Daisy Thompson, humiliated and berated by the stepdaughter she had tried so hard to please, suddenly turned several shades paler.

Yet, facing Sophia Green, she didn’t even have the courage to voice the accusations she had toward Adam, instead, she looked at Sophia with a wounded expression, her eyes reddening as she said:

"Sophia, how can you say that? I’ve always treated you like my own daughter, never mistreating you, not even... not even when you pushed me hard just now, I didn’t expose your scheme to frame Elly Campbell in front of my son."

Previously, Daisy had been so agitated by Elly Campbell’s words that she impulsively pushed her.

But in the next second, Sophia Green had shoved her to the ground.

If she hadn’t reacted in time, she might have actually sprained her ankle.

It would have been a serious accusation to levy against Elly Campbell if she had really sprained it.

Sophia Green was amused by her words, "So you think you have the right to complain, being as foolish as you are? If I hadn’t pushed you then, do you really think that with you pushing Elly Campbell in that situation, your son would have let you off?"

Seeing Daisy Thompson’s face grow pale again, Sophia continued:

"Honestly, if I were Adam Jones, I wouldn’t want to acknowledge you either. Infidelity is one thing, but taking your dead husband’s money and shamelessly throwing yourself at another man right after his death, and doing it in such an ugly manner, how could Adam Jones possibly recognize someone like you as his mother."

Sophia Green thought that Daisy Thompson was the epitome of someone born lacking in self-respect.

Claiming to admire her father’s talents, she had no qualms about her infidelity.

Leaving her son behind to take care of her, she did look after Sophia meticulously, but did she think that Sophia would be grateful to her?

Aspire to be her mother, Sophia Green? With Daisy Thompson’s character?

Rebuffed by Sophia Green’s tirade, Daisy Thompson was left speechless, not because she believed Sophia’s accusations were justified, but because she didn’t dare show any defiance to Sophia.
