Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1054. The Difference in Upbringing

This was a dinner at the Presidential mansion, not just some ordinary commercial charity event.

Even if she was Adam Jones’s true love, she should have known better than to show up in front of him at this time, especially when he was there with his lawful wife.

Was this deliberately meant to upset the lawful wife?

"Hah! After all, background and upbringing make a difference. Although both are CEO Campbell’s daughters, there’s a clear distinction in how they behave and handle social interactions."

The rich lady who had earlier praised Elly Campbell’s dress now said this directly in front of Sophie Baker,

It was as if she had slapped Sophie Baker in the face, saying she lacked upbringing and did not know how to behave.

Sophie Baker was already jealous and resentful because Adam Jones had personally designed a dress for Elly Campbell, and many rich ladies were flattering Elly.

The direct accusation of her lack of manners now made her face sink immediately.

She was about to retort against the comment when she heard Adam Jones’s deep voice, filled with obvious dissatisfaction and warning:

"Mind the occasion. Do you know where you are?"

Sophie Baker was about to retort, but the words from Adam Jones made her stiffen completely.

She then remembered that this was the Presidential mansion, and this dinner was not just any dinner.

Even if she was favored by Adam Jones, she couldn’t completely ignore the etiquette of the occasion.

Seeing Adam Jones’s deep and dissatisfied look made her somewhat panicky. She quickly spoke out to explain:

"I... I was just happy to see my sister here and came over to greet her without thinking about the occasion. I meant nothing else by it."

Her face turned pale, and she looked like she had been wronged.

James Campbell hadn’t expected Sophie Baker to blatantly go up to Adam Jones and Elly Campbell to make her presence felt. His face immediately darkened.

If it had been any other time, he might have let her act recklessly, but now they were at the Presidential mansion, where even if she had a good relationship with Adam Jones, she should at least consider the occasion.

She was currently a target of universal condemnation on Twitter as a homewrecker. Here, surrounded by high-born rich ladies, she should have known to hold back instead of going up so recklessly.

James Campbell recognized the lady who had said Elly Campbell and Sophie Baker were raised differently as a fashion guru with over a hundred million followers on Twitter.

Her other identity was that of a Lady Marquess, who was very particular about rules and status.

For Sophie Baker, an illegitimate daughter and homewrecker, to act so inconsiderately was exactly what the Lady Marquess subtly mocked in terms of upbringing, implying he hadn’t taught his daughter well.

"Sophie."

His face darkened as he went up wanting to salvage some dignity.

He approached Sophie Baker and said in a slightly reproachful tone: fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

"Dad knows you’re happy to see your sister and wanted to come over and greet her, but your sister was chatting with the ladies, and it was very rude of you to just interrupt like that. Now apologize to the ladies immediately."

James Campbell’s approach this time was very clever, casting Sophie Baker’s act of mindless jealousy as merely excessive joy at seeing her sister, disregarding the occasion.

Elly Campbell sneered inwardly.

Since when did she and Sophie Baker, the illegitimate sister, share such a deep sisterly bond?

Was she supposed to pretend she didn’t have "a grudge over stolen husband" and act like they were close sisters catching up?
