NovelOnlineChapter 1501: 1501. Not at all unjustifiable
Hearing Sophia Taylor's words, the receptionist couldn't help but snicker. This woman might look decent, but why
is it that the prettier someone seems, the more bizarrely obnoxious they act?
"That was Elly Campbell's sister-in-law just now, Adam Jones’ own younger sister—a member of Campbell's
family. Why would she need an appointment to visit her sister-in-law?"
The receptionist had been maintaining a polite smile out of professionalism, even though she was growing
increasingly impatient with Sophia. But at this moment, she genuinely didn’t care to deal with her anymore.
Sophia's expression shifted upon hearing this, and a flush of embarrassment swept over her, leaving her feeling
utterly humiliated and out of place.
No wonder that woman had seemed so familiar earlier—turns out she was Lily Jones. When the receptionist
addressed her as Miss Jones earlier, Sophia hadn't even connected the dots.
Wasn't Lily Jones the one who used to be at odds with Elly Campbell to the point of mutual destruction? Didn't
her husband almost divorce her back then?
And now, these two sisters-in-law were suddenly getting along so well?
The receptionist had no intention of dealing with her further and continued to focus on her own tasks.
Realizing she had no chance of meeting Elly Campbell after all this back-and-forth, Sophia felt discontent at the
thought of simply leaving, unwilling to just give up like that.
It was her first tvisiting Campbell Corporation, and even the grandeur of the reception hall alone was enough
to leave her awestruck.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe mid-level managers who passed by earlier—each of them walked with such poise and professionalism. If
they worked at an average company, they could easily be at the vice president level.
And as for Campbell's senior executives? Even more untouchable.
Not to mention that with the Jones Corporation backing Elly Campbell, their mid to senior management teams
were incomparable to those at other companies.
As she thought about it, Sophia couldn't help but fantasize: even if she couldn’t continue her teaching
profession, if she could work at a place like Campbell Corporation or Jones Corporation, wouldn't she have a
much better chance of marrying such an elite figure?
Back then, she was fully aware that she couldn't compete with Elly Campbell. She had enough self-awareness
not to even entertain the idea of pursuing Adam Jones.
That day, she had inadvertently overheard a conversation between Ethan White and Willy Willock, the
Windflower Corporation’s vice president, where she learned that the company’s legendary secret owner was
none other than Ethan White.
She pretended not to know about Ethan White's true identity and, knowing he had sconnection to Elly
Campbell, plotted to use Elly to get closer to him.
Who could've guessed? Ethan White was also infatuated with Elly Campbell.
Don’t blher for being jealous—any woman would be. Seeing someone surrounded by so many admirers,
each one so far out of reach for ordinary people, jealousy was inevitable.
Sophia didn’t feel the slightest bit guilty about spreading gossip about Elly Campbell to Grandmother Wood that
day.
Standing in the lobby for a while longer, with no one acknowledging her, Sophia didn’t want to appear pathetic
yet was equally unwilling to leave without achieving anything. So, she went over to the lounge area in the
Campbell Corporation reception hall and sat down.
If worse cto worst, she would wait until Elly Campbell got off work and try to find an opportunity to talk to
her then.
She still firmly believed that while Elly Campbell might not see her as a particularly close friend, she at least
considered her an ordinary one.
As long as Sophia asked for help—a trivial favor at that—Elly would undoubtedly assist her.

While waiting downstairs for a while, she never saw Elly Campbell—but she did see Lily Jones stepping out of the
elevator, her face carrying a distinct expression of anger.
