Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1044. Can no longer let Sophie be aggrieved

Seeing the self-reproach and grievance on her biological mother’s face, and the guilt on her biological father’s face, she hooked her lips with a hint of irony.

She thought that it was her mother who had the real skill, capable of making her father feel pity with just a few words.

If she could learn half of her mother’s abilities, maybe she would have been Mrs. Jones years ago, and what would have been Elly Campbell’s relevance then?

Now, even though Adam trusted only her because of his memory loss, Elly Campbell was still the legitimate wife no matter what.

Her days were still more comfortable than hers.

Although she received online condemnation and the Old Master of the Jones Family didn’t accept her,

even Adam always kept her at arm’s length, leaving her uncertain of his true feelings.

The more Sophie thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She had initially planned to put on an act in front of her father to expedite her mother’s official marriage. But now, she felt genuinely wronged.

And such grievance was exactly what James Campbell saw.

Seeing his daughter bear such grievance, James Campbell also felt heartache as a surge of paternal love instantly filled his heart.

"Once the Old Master’s condition stabilizes a bit more, we’ll organize a grand wedding, and let everyone know you’re not a mistress, and Sophie is not an illegitimate daughter."

Hearing this, Melody Baker’s face lit up with joy, and the mother and daughter exchanged a covert glance.

Although they were talking about waiting for the Old Master’s condition to stabilize, given the old man’s current state, stabilization was unlikely; death seemed more probable.

When that time came, once the Old Master died, everything would be settled. They could marry whenever they wished, and it would be up to them whether Sophie would carry the Campbell or Baker surname.

After the Baker mother and daughter cursed the Old Master in their hearts once again, Melody Baker said:

"I’m just worried that once we plan to marry, some other nonsense will turn up."

She didn’t know if someone was doing it on purpose or what but, each time they planned the wedding, something would happen to put it off again and again.

James Campbell was still furious when he brought it up.

He had only learned from Adam Jones after the birthday banquet of the Old Master of the Clark Family that the troubles he had encountered during that time were all orchestrated by Adam Jones.

Just to take revenge for Elly Campbell.

He was now actually grateful that Adam had lost his memory and was no longer against him. Otherwise, he’d spend his entire life under Adam’s thumb.

"Don’t worry, it won’t happen again. If the Old Master’s condition remains unstable for a while longer, our wedding will proceed as planned. We’ll consider it as cleansing for the Old Master," he assured, patting Melody Baker’s shoulder, then turned to Sophie with a look of heartfelt concern, and said:

"No matter what, I can’t let our Sophie suffer anymore."

Sophie felt secretly thrilled and exchanged another glance with Melody Baker. Then, suppressing the joy in her eyes, she looked at James Campbell with a look of gratitude:

"Thank you, Dad."

Seeing the gratitude in his daughter’s eyes and not a hint of resentment for making her an illegitimate daughter, James Campbell’s sense of guilt deepened.

After some hesitation, he continued:

"This weekend there’s a dinner at the Presidential Palace, and I’ve received an invitation. I’ll take you with me; you both could meet more people."

The Campbell Family was a prominent family in Boston, and due to the Old Master, President Tony Wilson was particularly gracious to the Campbells.

Although James Campbell had done many outrageous things since the appearance of the mistress and her daughter, he was still a Campbell and the Chairman of Campbell Industries.
