Chapter 824
Her features were delicate and decent. She looked even more elegant and radiant with heavy makeup. Her face was gorgeous and dazzling as if she had just stepped out of a painting.
Sophia felt more jealous, and she said with a fake smile,” Now I realize that pregnancy before marriage is inheritable . No wonder people always say, like mother, like daughter. Addy, you and your mother really come from the same family,”
Slap!
Halfway through her sentence, a crisp slap rang out on her cheek.
Sophia widened her eyes in disbelief.
“Are you crazy, Adina? How dare you slap me?!”
She was about to rush over with her arms raised, but Richard yelled, “You just came to make a fool of yourself. Why do I have a daughter like you? Ethan, send her back to the Gardner family!”
Ethan quickly went forward. He pressed down Sophia‘s arms and softly said, “Sophia, there are many people here today. Don‘t cause trouble. I‘m sending you home.”
Adina rubbed her slightly numb fingertips and nonchalantly said, “Ethan, let go of her. Let her mess with me. We‘ll see if I‘m more embarrassing or she is.”
Sophia was furious.
This was not Adina‘s first time slapping her. It was fine the last time because it was in the Xavier family‘s mansion, so it was not that embarrassing.
However, countless eyes were watching them in public now. She was Mrs. Gardner, and her own cousin actually slapped her.
“Everyone knows that you hate me, but as a junior, you shouldn‘t talk badly about my mother,” Adina said indifferently.
“I have two bottom lines. The first is my kids, and the second is my mother. Do you remember them clearly?”
Her condescending tone was filled with an implied threat, which enraged Sophia even more.
