Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Wow, Charles Churchill, you really are capable. Your own daughter is being bullied, and you don't defend her but hit your wife instead, you're just useless!" With a dark face, Charles Churchill still wanted to hit her, but was stopped by the people around him.
And Jasmine Churchill, who has been wholeheartedly defended by her own mother, didn't stop him even as she saw her mom getting hit by her dad, she just kept shedding tears.
Even the onlookers nearby were finding it hard to watch.
"This Miss Churchill is really something, first claiming she was bullied by Mrs. Jones, but wouldn't clarify it when asked, just knows how to cry." "As the daughter of a prominent family, her behavior is a little too petty." "Can't you see? This is a professional white lotus performance. Although Mrs. Churchill's actions are embarrassing, she is still her mother. She didn't even stop him when she saw her mother getting hit, just continues crying instead." "Tsk tsk..." Although Jasmine Churchill was crying, she was also very attuned to the attitudes of the people around her; she was trying to decide what to say next based on their opinions about the situation to best benefit herself. Because she could hear the murmurings of these ladies, although quiet, were quite clear to her as she focused specifically on listening.
She instantly felt a chill in her heart.
Realizing that the situation was not in her favor, and that crying no matter how heartbreakingly would not help win sympathy or dominate public opinion, to these astute high-society ladies, it simply appeared as an act of being a white lotus.
She also realized she had overplayed her hand, causing these people to already have a bad impression of her.
If she went on to say anything about Elly Campbell being disloyal, it would only be interpreted by these people as a deliberate scheme.
With this thought, she quickly composed herself, and just as Grace Gresia was about to charge at Charles Churchill, Jasmine rapidly stepped forward to stop her.
"Mom, please don't be like this, my cousin really didn't bully me, you misunderstood." Grace Gresia wasn't willing to listen, at this moment, she was like a furious lioness looking at Jasmine Churchill with tear-filled eyes, saying: "Then why are you crying?" She simply didn't believe Jasmine Churchill's words, thinking her daughter was too meek to have possibly upset Elly Campbell, it must be Elly Campbell who wronged her.
"Jasmine, don't be afraid, if your dad won't stand up for you, mom will. I will never let anyone bully you."
Watching Grace Gresia's shrew-like figure yet her protective stance m towards Jasmine Churchill, Elly Campbell actually started to appreciate her a bit. It made her think of Thompson.
Like Grace Gresia, who protects Jasmine Churchill like a small chick, although unreasonable and prone to making a scene, crass in speech and mean-spirited. But undeniably, her intention to protect her child is genuine.
But Thompson? Her child's father had just died, and she ran off with the money and a lover.
Not caring for over twenty years was bad enough, but she even schemed to harm her own son for his Rher inheritance; that woman's heart must have been eaten by a dog.
