Chapter 996: 996. The taste in choosing a concubine is not so good

Moreover, Sherry Huang might have other backers that you can’t just offend.

Even Adam Jones would not spoil his relationships for the sake of a woman with the people behind Sherry Huang.

Thus, the mother and daughter very sensibly chose to bite their tongues and endure.

After Sherry’s merciless criticism, Sophie Baker was unwilling to let it go, yet didn’t dare to do anything to Sherry Huang, could only glare at her furiously.

Naturally, they could no longer consider buying clothes from this store, nor did they want to leave humbly, so Sophie said with a fierce expression:

"This lousy store of yours, selling only a few pieces of clothes a year, who would fancy your clothes? Just wait for your store to close, ugh!"

Sophie grabbed Melody Baker’s arm and said, "Let’s go, Mom. We’ll look somewhere else. Adam said I could buy anything I like, much prettier than the clothes in this store."

Before leaving, she didn’t forget to show off in front of others, causing Sherry Huang and her staff to roll their eyes involuntarily.

"Look, sister, you shouldn’t speak like that. Why are you always hoping my store closes? Even if I close, your benefactor isn’t going to give my store to you."

Benefactor...

Sophie Baker’s already strained elegance twisted further.

Was that foreigner alluding to her being a mistress?

She turned around and glared fiercely at Sherry Huang, retorting:

"If I wanted to open a store, Adam would naturally provide the funds for me. I don’t need your pathetic store, you better hold onto your benefactor’s golden thigh tightly, lest you get kicked out one day."

After saying this, Sophie Baker waited eagerly for Sherry Huang to be twisted by her words, only to see her casually shrug and reply:

"Then I wish you get whatever you wish for, big sister."

Upon hearing her speak with an English accent, Sophie couldn’t help but roll her eyes, thinking Sherry Huang was horribly unsophisticated.

No longer wanting to argue with Sherry Huang, she walked out of the store with Melody Baker, "Let’s go, Mom."

"Okay."

As the mother and daughter left, their chins lifted, their eyes sweepingly arrogant, they resembled two noble middle-aged princesses.

As they left, their glance at Sherry Huang seemed to suggest that by not buying in her store, she had lost a business deal worth billions.

Just as they left Sherry Huang’s store, they heard a voice tinged with regret from inside.

"That Mr. Jones’s brother, he chooses wives well, but not concubines."

Sophie’s face darkened once again.

Meanwhile, the store employees watched their boss, an international figure speaking fluent, down-to-earth English, with an expression that was somewhat difficult to describe.

After Helen Melendy returned Elly Campbell to the Campbell Family home and knew there was nothing amiss between her and Adam Jones, she felt relieved.

She didn’t enter the Campbell house and just drove away.

Elly Campbell had an important person to meet and did not ask Helen Melendy to stay.

Upon entering the house, Linstad came forward to greet her:

"Miss Campbell, Liam is in the Old Master’s study waiting for you."

"Alright, I’m going up now."

In the Old Master’s study, Elly Campbell saw the person Linstad mentioned, "Uncle Liam."

"Miss Campbell."

The man in front of her was in his early fifties, and he seemed to have some difficulty walking.

He pointed at a document bag on the table and told Elly Campbell:

"The Old Master instructed me to investigate some matters for you, everything is written in there. If you have any questions, you can contact Charles anytime."

"Thank you, Uncle Liam, for handling this matter."

"It’s a small matter, a task entrusted by the Old Master, I must handle it well."
