<h4>Chapter 786: 786. Mindless shrew_1</h4>


    Sure enough, after Christopher Moore finished speaking, Lily Jones sneered and said:


    "We may not have met often in public, but who can say whether we’ve met in private or how often? In the end, it’s all what you im, isn’t it?"


    "Lily Jones."


    Before Christopher Moore could speak, Elly Campbell interjected nonchntly.


    She had thought she would have increasingly less to do with that idiot Lily Jones in the future, that even if they met, they would probably have nothing to say to each other.


    But she realized that the idiot Lily Jones absolutely had the knack to infuriate people to the point where ignoring her was difficult.


    "Being willful and making a scene for no reason are two different things. In the past, your whims might have been indulged by the people around you, but creating problems out of thin air and making a scene like a shrew will eventuallye back to bite you."


    "Elly Campbell, are you calling me a shrew?!"


    Elly Campbell: "..."


    The onlookers: "..."


    Is there something wrong with Lily Jones’s brain? She can’t even grasp the main point.


    Elly Campbell didn’t want to waste time on idle talk with her. Lily Jones insisted Christopher Moore was involved with her, probably because something had led her to make such an association.


    But for the life of her, Elly could not think of more than a few words she had exchanged with Christopher Moore. Where on earth had these idease from?


    "You keep saying I have a rtionship with Christopher Moore, but what exactly have we done that’s so immoral and hical?"


    If it were anywhere else, Elly truly wouldn’t want to waste half a word on Lily Jones, but with so many people watching, if Lily didn’t rify her statements, both Elly and Christopher could end up smeared by the mud she was flinging.


    "Lily Jones, how your husband has always treated you, you know better than anyone. His unconditional tolerance of your whims is no excuse for you to cause trouble. You can throw dirt on me, and I can understand it’s because you dislike me, but as your husband, Christopher has done nothing to wrong you. Throwing such usations at him, doesn’t your conscience hurt?"


    Elly said all this hoping that Lily Jones would think things through and at least keep the peace in public, so as not to let outsiders mock Christopher.


    But she was wrong. How could she think that Lily Jones would use her brain to think things through? Clearly, she didn’t have one.


    "You’re aware that I dislike you, and you know he’s my husband. Despite knowing I dislike you, he repeatedly speaks on your behalf and lectures me. If that’s not him having feelings for you, then what is it?"


    After Lily Jones said this, Christopher Moore suddenlyughed, but there was not a trace of humor in his eyes—instead, a faint hurt appeared.


    Elly knew that Lily had reached a level of idiocy, so when she came up with such a reason, Elly was not surprised at all.


    She felt regret and indignation on behalf of Christopher, and she couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger as well.


    "Lily Jones, I thought you were just brainless, but it turns out you are not only brainless. Youck basic human decency and heart as well."


    "Christopher’s kindness and tolerance toward you, in your eyes, seem to be taken for granted. As soon as he does something against your wishes, youpletely nullify all the good he has done for you. You are so spiteful and selfish that you don’t care about his dignity at all, pinning on him such a baseless usation."


    "Christopher speaks up for me and respects me, not just because I’m your sister-inw, but more importantly, because I saved your life. In his heart, your life is worth more than anything, and yet, you tar his respect with such an unspeakable usation."
