"Look, even her grandparents don’t acknowledge her. Her fiancé is also soone her father disapproves of... Speaking of which, my Ophelia’s fiancé is also soone from the Seymour Family."
"But unlike your son-in-law, my daughter’s fiancé is favored by Ethan Seymour." Chaya Davis deliberately emphasized the last few words, showing off in front of Clarissa.
It felt amazing to have this mont of pride.
Clarissa snorted, "It’s just a pity that Ophelia Wilson’s fiancé is surnad Reed! The son most favored by Ethan Seymour is surnad Reed, quite unique!"
Chaya’s face instantly changed color.
Sophie Wilson looked at her mother in surprise, she was too shocked that her mom would use sarcasm like this.
Chaya trembled with anger, almost losing her temper and shouting insults, but Ophelia tily interrupted her: "Mom, you forgot, it’s because Uncle Seymour cares so much about Jas’s mom that he let Jas take her surna."
Hearing this, Chaya’s anger dissipated imdiately, and although she spoke to Ophelia, her proud gaze kept shooting toward Clarissa: "Oh, I nearly forgot how much your Uncle Seymour spoils Jas, almost believing so petty people’s nonsense."
Clarissa wasn’t angry either, and just snorted: "As long as you’re happy."
She wondered, when Jas Reed fails to secure a partnership with Peace Group, will he still maintain his composure in front of Ethan Seymour.
Why should she engage in an argunt with Chaya Davis here?
A waste of ti.
On the other side, the jewelry Clarissa and Sophie Wilson bought was already packed, and Sophie simply took out a card to pay.
Chaya Davis finally seized an opportunity to belittle Clarissa and vent her long-repressed frustration, there’s no way she’d let it go so easily.
"Clarissa, isn’t it bad for you to spend your daughter’s money like this? Have you beco so strapped for cash?" Chaya couldn’t be happier, as long as Clarissa wasn’t doing well, she was relieved.
"Isn’t it only natural for a daughter to spend money on her mother?" Sophie Wilson sneered, "Are you here spending your own money to buy things? Is Ophelia unfilial, or did you get a large compensation from my uncle when the family was divided?"
"You..." Chaya seethed with hatred, why did Sophie Wilson always jump in when she talked to Clarissa?
"Mom, don’t be angry." Ophelia advised Chaya, then softly smiled at Sophie, "Sophie, I know you’re unhappy with Grandpa and Grandma’s decision and harbor resentnt toward us. I understand if you have grievances."
"But, when I buy things for my mom, it’s my way of showing appreciation, especially since it’s jewelry my mom needs to wear at my engagent banquet, so it’s naturally my responsibility." Ophelia said with a smile.
"But... Sophie, you seem to be doing quite well, does your decoration company really earn this much? If you spend it all on jewelry here, will your company really run smoothly?" Although Ophelia seed concerned for Sophie, she was clearly mocking her for putting on airs.
"I have a fiancé, why should I spend my own money?" Sophie looked curiously at Ophelia.
Ophelia was taken aback before bursting into laughter: "Sophie, you’re using your fiancé’s money, that’s not really good, is it..."
"What’s so bad about it? He’s willing to give money to spend." Sophie looked at Ophelia, puzzled.
