Rebirth: Clinging to My Possessive Magnate-Chapter 730: Not a Good Thing
Double standards, huh? Got no shame?
She just directly asked him if he had any shame!
Julian stared dumbly at Sophie Wilson, his mind blank except for one thought swirling around, little Aunt... she’s fierce!
Seeing Sophie defend Charles Seymour like that, Old Mr. and Mrs. Seymour exchanged a satisfied glance, this granddaughter-in-law is great, truly great!
Ethan Seymour had no intention of praising Sophie; he was utterly furious, to the point of trembling lips, unable to utter a single word.
Ophelia Wilson frowned deeply, glancing at the embarrassed James Reed beside her, suppressing her anger and speaking pitifully, "Sophie, everyone came to celebrate grandfather’s birthday, it’s supposed to be a happy occasion..."
"Yes, and you all ruined it," Sophie directly cut Ophelia off.
That remark nearly choked Ophelia with her own saliva, almost cracking her poor little facade.
Luckily, Ophelia’s acting skills were top-notch; she couldn’t speak but could pretend to be bullied and heartbroken. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
So Ophelia lowered her gaze, adopting a pitiful look that seemed particularly fragile, easily eliciting sympathy.
However, those attending Old Mr. Seymour’s birthday were either directors of the Seymour Corporation or business partners of the corporation. They’ve seen it all.
Even their wives weren’t naive, and wouldn’t be swayed by Ophelia’s fragile little lotus act.
Moreover, some wives felt even angrier seeing Ophelia’s performance, recalling how their husbands had been ensnared by similarly pretending-to-be-weak vixens. If their tactics hadn’t been strong enough, their homes would have been destroyed by such temptresses.
Having such experiences, they were even angrier seeing Ophelia like this.
How did James manage to find such a creature?
Hmph, Ophelia is nothing good, and James, who found Ophelia, is even worse!
Wretched woman with a scumbag!
Charles Seymour of course saw all the reactions around him, the corners of his lips curled into a faint smile. His Sophie was impressive; with just a few words, she destroyed Ophelia’s image and caused everyone’s opinion of James to plummet.
As for why he would expend extra effort on those around him... he must keep watch in case anyone bullies Sophie.
Of course, his main focus was still on his Sophie.
"Sophie Wilson, talking about these things is really pointless." Hayley Cole, who had fumed for quite some time, finally regained her composure, especially seeing Ophelia left speechless by Sophie, she felt it was time for her to step up and protect James.
Subconsciously, there was a thought even she hadn’t realized, she wanted to overshadow Ophelia.
"Since we’re celebrating Old Mr. Seymour’s birthday, where are your gifts?" Hayley Cole asked, "If it’s from the heart, then let’s see how heartfelt they are."
Clarissa Taylor furrowed her brow, looking nervously at Sophie Wilson; she truly didn’t know what Sophie had prepared for Old Mr. Seymour’s birthday.
Given Charles Seymour’s capability, it should be something decent, but precisely because of his status, even gifts similar to James’s might be deemed insufficiently classy.
"Miss Cole is quite concerned about our gifts, huh." Sophie Wilson looked at Hayley Cole amusedly, one hand in her pocket, casually staring at her.
