Relentless Pursuit After Divorce

Chapter 863: 863. It’s like my brain was kicked by ten thousand donkeys at the same time.

She introduced everyone at the table to Jamuna Ford with a composed expression. When it came to James Campbell, she smiled and said, "This is CEO Campbell, you should already know him."

"I have long heard of CEO Campbell’s great reputation."

Jamuna Ford’s face appeared courteous, but there was a hint of arrogance and contempt in his eyes.

James Campbell felt inexplicably unhappy with Jenna Clark’s cold and distant behavior towards him, especially watching her and Jamuna Ford go from table to table, toasting like a married couple, which made him even more bitter.

As a result, he found Jamuna Ford particularly offensive to look at, disdainful to the point of scorn.

Hearing Jamuna Ford’s insincere words of flattery, he snorted dismissively and made no response.

Such a display of disrespect, especially towards a universally respected scientist, made those sitting at the same table with James Campbell look down on his extremely low-class behavior.

Even if you’re dissatisfied with your ex-wife, there’s no reason to show such disrespect to Professor Ford, who’s accompanying her, right?

Moreover, you’ve kept a mistress for twenty-six years and even had an affair while your wife was pregnant, what right do you have to be dissatisfied with your ex-wife?

People all scoffed at him, but out of consideration for decorum, nobody spoke up.

After a round of toasting was over, Jenna Clark ignored Melody Baker and prepared to leave with Jamuna Ford.

And Melody Baker, who was waiting to see how Jenna Clark would introduce her, became irritated when Jenna Clark simply pretended she didn’t exist and skipped over her.

She had introduced everyone at the table, except for her—what did that mean?

As Jenna turned around, Melody clattered her chopsticks down on the table, and when Jenna turned to look at her, Melody huffed and said:

"Mrs. Clark, your way of treating guests is quite an eye-opener. You introduced everyone to Professor Ford and completely ignored me. Even if you resent me for taking James away, you shouldn’t lack such basic manners."

The people present: "..."

Where did this mistress, who shouldn’t be seen in public, get such a sense of superiority from? It was bizarre enough for her to come to her ex-father-in-law’s birthday celebration with James Campbell, but to cause trouble at the banquet was downright preposterous.

The words she spoke were just as unfit for public as she was.

It was baffling to think if James Campbell’s brain had been kicked by ten thousand donkeys at once, to trade Jenna Clark, this bright pearl, for someone so low.

And Jamuna Ford, who stood beside Jenna Clark, upon hearing Melody Baker’s words, his previously gentle and refined features instantly became covered with a layer of frost.

Before Jenna could speak, he spoke first, "I apologize, but I have no interest in knowing who you are. So, whether my senior sister introduces you or not is not important."

Jamuna Ford’s words were a direct slap in the face. Even though his tone and choice of words were somewhat polite, his brows and eyes held nothing that could be associated with the word "polite."

Emperors also have poor relatives, so many of the family and friends who came to the Clark family to attend Master Clark’s birthday were actually ordinary citizens, from the working class.

Regardless of money, status, or fame, they were all far behind Jamuna Ford.

But when Jenna Clark introduced them one by one, Jamuna Ford greeted each person with great politeness, nodding and saying hello, and even patiently answered a few questions from some elders.

All of this was seen by Melody Baker.

Although she was jealous of Jenna Clark having so many people of status by her side, she, of course, hoped to climb onto the same bandwagon.
