676. Who annoyed you_1

"The goad doesn't work on me, Miss Green. Adam's tastes are quite selective; he doesn't fancy just anyone who throws themselves at him."

She implied meaning with a scornful glance at Sophia Green from head to toe, imitating the way Sophia had looked at her at the beginning.

Ignoring the poise and grace that had collapsed in an instant, she continued:

"And while you're at it, pass a message to Mrs. Green for me. I don't care what she's up to coming to see Adam now, but I advise her to rein it in. I'm not one for preaching filial piety, and if she crosses me, I won't show her the pity a man might."

In Sophia's mind, Elly Campbell should be humble and ingratiating towards her own mother-in-law, not contemptuous and disdainful as she was being now.

What gives this woman the right to be so bold?

Does she really think Adam won't recognize his own mother?

Sophia looked at Elly's indifferent face and suddenly broke into laughter.
