Chapter 785: 785. Lily Jones, enough is enough_1

After all, when the eldest daughter of the Jones Family married the eldest son of the Moore Clan, the wedding was quite a sensation.

It was said that the wedding was personally designed by Christopher Moore for Lily Jones. Those who had attended still talk about it with relish, saying that Lily Jones must have accumulated virtue in ten previous lifetimes to not only become Adam Jones’ sister but also to marry Christopher Moore.

At that time, how many people envied Lily Jones, thinking that this woman was truly blessed.

After the wedding, Christopher Moore had never been rumored to be involved with any other woman, and the couple always appeared to be very loving in public.

Who would have thought that this couple, who seemed to be the very image of marital bliss, would actually argue in public, even mentioning feeling guilty?

Could it be that Christopher Moore had been keeping another woman behind Lily Jones’ back?

The crowd’s gaze slowly shifted toward Elly Campbell standing in front of them, their looks carrying a somewhat complex scrutiny.

But soon, some people recognized Elly Campbell. Was this drama a three-person act involving a sister-in-law, a younger sister’s husband, and herself?

Was Adam Jones’ wife involved with her sister’s husband?

This drama just became more interesting.

It was only this morning that Adam Jones was rumored to be involved with a rising movie star, and now, his wife was caught in a dubious entanglement with her brother-in-law. The drama within this wealthy family was indeed plentiful.

This time, Christopher Moore didn’t lose his temper but looked at Lily Jones very calmly, the disappointment in his eyes not too obvious anymore.

A few seconds later, he withdrew his gaze from Lily Jones’ face, rubbed his temples wearily, and then turned to Elly Campbell, apologizing,

"Sister-in-law, I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first. You all can continue shopping at your leisure."

Having said that, he didn’t wait for Lily Jones and walked away.

Lily Jones, seeing that Christopher Moore had no intention of paying her any mind, distorted her face in rage, rushed up to grab Christopher Moore’s arm, and shouted,

"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Is it because she wants to leave, or you want to leave? What is it? Are you feeling guilty that I might discover something about your affair?"

As Lily Jones spoke more and more irrationally, Elly Campbell, who had initially wanted to diffuse the situation, evidently could no longer stand by and listen.

Seeing the forceful restraint of anger in Christopher Moore’s brooding eyes, she approached Lily Jones, her voice lowered with a hint of warning—

"Lily Jones, that’s enough."

"That’s enough?"

Lily Jones looked at Elly Campbell with a cold laugh, not hiding the disdain and hatred in her eyes.

"You feel embarrassed? You’re not ashamed, so why should I be afraid of being embarrassed?"

"Lily Jones!"

Christopher Moore finally could no longer contain his anger, which exploded in that moment.

"If you have a problem with me, come at me directly. Don’t just bite at anyone you can find, okay?"

Although Christopher Moore was very angry, his choice of words was still pretty restrained.

Such was the upbringing of a Young Master of the Moore Clan, but even someone as even-tempered as Christopher Moore was pushed by Lily Jones to argue in public—a testament to just how irrational the things Lily Jones was saying and doing were.

"What do you mean ’biting at anyone’? Christopher Moore, considering we were husband and wife, are you indirectly calling me a dog on behalf of Elly Campbell, the ’Fox Spirit’?"

"What exactly should I do to satisfy you? I haven’t even seen your sister-in-law that many times. Why would you concoct such stories about us out of thin air, for what purpose?"

Christopher Moore was so furious he turned pale, finding it very difficult to maintain composure in front of Elly Campbell.

Elly Campbell realized that Christopher Moore simply did not know how to argue. Faced with Lily Jones’ unreasonable harangue, he had no idea how to respond.
