Chapter 784: 784. There’s no bottom line for stupidity_1

Elly Campbell’s smile instantly froze, and Helen Melendy’s expression darkened alongside her. It wasn’t just Elly who thought that Elly was acting like she had some sort of mental illness, biting at anyone regardless of the situation.

Just as Helen was about to say something, Elly stopped her.

Under different circumstances, Elly would have already dealt with Lily Jones, but now, for the sake of Christopher Moore, she preferred not to make a scene since they were in a public place with many people around.

Even if Lily didn’t care about saving face for herself, Elly still wanted to save some for Christopher.

Ignoring Lily, she turned to Christopher and said, "We’ll be leaving first, have a nice time shopping."

"Sure, take care, sister-in-law," Christopher replied.

Christopher Moore made way for Elly and her companion.

After Lily’s outburst, Elly and her companion lost any appetite they might have had for dessert.

And yet, like a mad dog, Lily clung to her aggression; just as Elly was about to step away, she heard Lily say:

"Why the rush to leave?"

Elly stopped in her tracks and looked at Lily, offering a faint smile, and said, "Do you want to invite me to lunch?"

"I won’t invite you, but our Christopher might, he is quite fond of you, his sister-in-law."

Lily’s sarcastic tone was one thing, but what was she implying with that last comment?

Elly’s expression instantly darkened, and her smile quickly vanished.

Before she could speak, Christopher, who was standing by her side, spoke up first, "Lily Jones, when will you stop this nonsense?"

His voice was not loud, audible perhaps only to the four of them, but it clearly conveyed his suppressed anger.

Even if Lily had always been impulsive, she used to have some limits, but now Elly realized that Lily’s foolishness had no boundaries—it was only limited by the lack of imagination, not by Lily’s capability to act out.

Initially, Elly felt sympathy for Lily having Daisy Thompson as a mother, who abandoned her as a baby to look after another’s daughter.

Now, however, she only found Lily ridiculous. It was not enough to be abandoned by her own mother, she also inherited her mother’s foolishness, even to a greater extent.

She looked at Christopher, whose face clearly showed his exhaustion. Obviously, during their absence, something else must have happened between the two.

Otherwise, considering Christopher’s unconditional tolerance for Lily, he would never use such a tone with her.

In the past, Elly felt pity for Lily at the thought of losing Christopher, but now, she couldn’t help but feel that Adam Jones’s previous suggestion to Christopher was very appropriate—Lily, with her foolishness, should not plague such a good boy like Christopher.

Lily seemed to have been holding back a storm of rage, which was unleashed by Christopher’s shout, erupting instantly.

Without caring for the setting, she shouted back at Christopher:

"What? Christopher Moore, did I hit a nerve? Are you feeling guilty?"

With Lily’s yell, attention from all around was quickly drawn to them.

As the General Manager Moore, often featured in magazines and financial newspapers, his handsome face was memorable to anyone who saw it.

As for Lily, being the daughter of the Jones Family, Adam’s sister, and for various other reasons frequently in the public eye, the moment the two started quarreling, many people stopped to watch, whispering and pointing at them.
