Chapter 982: 982. The concubine is particularly uncultured

And her use of the word "concubine" successfully made Sophie Baker’s face fall.

"Who are you calling a concubine!"

"Constantly rushing to call her ’sister,’ if it’s not to be a concubine, then why call her ’sister’?"

She purposefully didn’t mention that Sophie was an illegitimate daughter; these repeated ’sisters’ were exactly how a concubine would address the lawful wife.

"You... I am her sister!"

"Isn’t it common for a concubine to refer to herself as ’little sister’ in front of the lawful wife?"

Helen Melendy continued to feign ignorance, and infuriated Sophie, whose face was yet to recover, twisted even more.

She sized up Sophie’s obviously surgically altered face and said, "Had plastic surgery?"

Sophie’s eyelids twitched violently, about to deny it, then heard Helen continue,

"No matter how beautiful the surgery makes you, even if you peeled off that skin and replaced it with another, it wouldn’t change the fact that you’re a concubine, you know?"

Elly Campbell, who had been silent all along, just wanted to see how the Baker mother and daughter would make fools of themselves again; hearing her best friend speak up for her without hesitation warmed her heart.

"You..."

"However, Adam Jones really has peculiar tastes in finding mistresses, seems he prefers convicts."

The term ’convict’ twisted Sophie’s already angry features even more.

"You... you slut..."

"The concubine also has a particular lack of culture, using filthy words to curse people as soon as she opens her mouth."

Helen Melendy calmly flung Sophie’s words right back at her with a detached expression.

"Did Adam Jones suffer a head injury that caused brain damage? His taste in women plummeted so rapidly, not even selective anymore?"

As a lawyer, Helen was naturally sharp-tongued, and arguing was certainly not beyond her capabilities.

Especially when dealing with shameless individuals like the Baker mother and daughter, she could utter even more unpleasant words to stomp their discarded faces into the mud.

Sophie felt that these two despicable women truly deserved to be best friends, each more venomous and vile-mouthed than the other, and she simply couldn’t outtalk them.

Melody Baker saw that Elly Campbell had been silent all along, yet her best friend kept coming out against her daughter. She wondered if she was putting up a victim’s facade for outsiders to see, letting others continue to attack Sophie, or if she had some other motive in mind.

After all, this woman was cunning and surely harboring some scheme against Sophie.

Because her own Sophie was such a sweet and innocent girl, hardly a match for Elly Campbell, the scheming vixen.

Thinking of Elly’s current awkward "embarrassing" situation within the Jones Family, Melody Baker smiled softly, approached, looked at Helen, and said,

"You are quite amusing, young lady. Elly hasn’t said a word, yet here you are, fighting her battles. Broadcasting this shrewish behavior on the internet, aren’t you afraid that no man would dare marry you for fear of your temper?"

Saying this, Melody Baker paused, then suddenly put on an expression of sudden realization and said,

"I almost forgot, they say you’ve been eagerly waiting for the Hall Family’s Young Master, but what a pity, your family background is too poor, and Mrs. Hall doesn’t approve of you."

Melody Baker looked Helen up and down with a pair of sympathetic eyes, uttering such harsh words that even Elly, who was in a fairly good mood, suddenly had her face fall.

Seeing that Elly’s already pale complexion darkened further because of her words, Melody felt even more delighted inside.

She knew that attacking her friend would unsettle Elly more than attacking her directly.

So she was pretending to be a victim to have her daughter criticized?

Well, she would not allow her to maintain that innocent façade any longer.
