Rebirth: Clinging to My Possessive Magnate-Chapter 749: Lucky Star
James Reed didn’t say much, and just quietly drove Ophelia Wilson home, but Ophelia could clearly feel James’s affection for her.
After watching James drive away, Ophelia finally entered the house with a joyous mood.
"Ophelia, back already?" Chaya Davis had evidently been waiting for Ophelia and quickly went over to welcome her as soon as she entered.
Old Mrs. Wilson and Old Mrs. Wilson were also waiting in the living room. Naturally, they were more reserved than Chaya Davis and didn’t rush to welcome her, but their expectant eyes showed they cared a lot about this birthday celebration of Old Mr. Seymour.
"How was it? Lively?" Chaya deliberately asked loudly, wanting Old Mrs. Wilson and Old Mrs. Wilson to hear clearly how remarkable her daughter was, that Ophelia was the real Seymour family daughter-in-law in the future.
What is Sophie Wilson anyway?
"Quite a number of people there." Ophelia of course understood the purpose behind Chaya’s question and said with a smile, "Grandpa really liked the painting and calligraphy James gifted, praised his thoughtfulness."
After Ophelia finished speaking, she wasn’t surprised to see Old Mrs. Wilson and Old Mrs. Wilson secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Though their reactions were not very obvious, they couldn’t escape Ophelia’s scrutinizing eyes.
Ophelia sneered inside; those two old folks have always wanted to climb up the Seymour family.
Just that they wanted to climb up through James initially, later shifted to Charles, but alas, neither Sophie Wilson nor Mason Wilson and Clarissa Taylor returned this New Year.
They threw quite a big tantrum during the New Year, probably feeling Charles couldn’t be relied upon anymore and thus pinned their hopes on James.
This time for Old Mr. Seymour’s birthday, they emphasized for quite a while, asking her to represent them in bringing well wishes to Old Mr. Seymour.
Those old schemers truly are shrewd.
Knowing well James’s position in the Seymour family is somewhat awkward, normally he doesn’t even get to see Old Mr. Seymour; on one hand, they want to cozy up to the Seymour family through James, and on the other hand, avoid going themselves to dodge the embarrassment of potentially not being let in.
They want to secure all the benefits without taking a bit of risk, thinking she’s a fool to let them exploit her like this for nothing?
"Mom, I’m heading to my room." Ophelia didn’t want to say much, after all, she was soon getting married to James. Once married, she could move out from here and no longer have to put up with those two disgusting people.
If they want to cozy up to her, she won’t be polite either; she will utilize the Wilson Clan resources whenever she can.
"Alright, alright, you must be tired, go and rest quickly." After Chaya Davis finished speaking, she watched Ophelia head upstairs before seemingly muttering to herself, "My Ophelia is truly a lucky star, look, everything turned joyous as soon as she went to the Seymour family." 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
After saying that, Chaya Davis pretended not to notice the suddenly ugly expression on Old Mrs. Wilson’s face and went upstairs smugly.
"She..." Old Mrs. Wilson was so angry that she pointed towards the direction Chaya departed, and was about to say something when Old Mrs. Wilson stopped her, "Back to the room."
Under the current circumstance, Ophelia should be pleased, who let her have such standing in the Seymour family?
Actually, Sophie Wilson’s value is way higher than Ophelia’s, it’s just... Old Mrs. Wilson thought about Mason Wilson’s stubborn temperament and felt a headache.
How could that kid really take it seriously; they didn’t recognize Sophie immediately back then, wasn’t it all for the Wilson Clan’s considerations?
