Chapter 521 Looking at the Long Term
"When I get married, it will be to James. Even if they do it for profit, they have to fawn over me, beg me. Sophie Wilson... in the Wilson Clan, she is only fit to carry my shoes." Ophelia Wilson was extremely confident.Chaya Davis heard this and finally felt relieved, letting out a long breath: "That’s good, that’s good. Today really scared me; I thought... hey, look at Sophie and Charles Seymour, the way they’re acting, it’s really... too hateful."
"Sophie’s just jealous," Ophelia Wilson sneered, "She can’t go back to the Wilson Clan, and now that she sees I’m getting engaged to James, she’s just jealous of me."
"Mom, think about it, what skills does she have? What skills does Charles Seymour have? They couldn’t find any other way to outdo us, so they had to stir trouble at this engagement banquet." The more Ophelia thought about it, the more she felt it made sense.
"This time, with so many people invited and such a big scene, it’s probably reached its peak." Ophelia understood this, but she still felt a bit of resentment.
"Old Mr. Seymour really dotes on Charles Seymour. How much money must he have thrown at this?"
Old Mr. Seymour was not so generous with James, let alone throwing money; he didn’t even acknowledge James as a member of the Seymour Family.
Hmm, really an old fool!
Wait until James secures the cooperation with Peace Corporation, let’s see how he regrets it then.
After Ophelia Wilson finished speaking, she instead comforted Chaya Davis: "Mom, don’t overthink it, it’s just an engagement banquet. We need to look at the long term."
"Mm." Chaya Davis looked at Ophelia Wilson affectionately, "I’m fine, I’m just worried you’ll be wronged."
"How could James let me be wronged? He was just fooled by Old Mr. Seymour. But it doesn’t matter because sooner or later, the Seymour Family will belong to James. The Seymour Family doesn’t have anyone capable of taking over the Seymour Corporation, only James has that ability." When talking about James Reed, Ophelia Wilson’s eyes were full of light.
"As long as you know what you’re doing." Chaya Davis nodded, "Ophelia, I don’t have much money, but if you need it, just tell Mom. I can’t compare to Mason Wilson and Clarissa Taylor, but over the years, I’ve saved a little from my salary."
"Mom, how could I take your salary? You’ve suffered all these years; in the future, just follow me and enjoy life." Ophelia Wilson smiled and took Chaya Davis’s hand, speaking with filial concern.
"Ophelia, you’re really my good daughter." Chaya Davis was extremely moved, feeling that her daughter was truly worthy.
After a conversation between the mother and daughter, Chaya Davis returned to her room so as not to disturb Ophelia Wilson’s rest.
Meanwhile, Old Mrs. Wilson finally managed to persuade Emerie Wilson to let Benjamin Walton take her away, then sighed and returned to the room, saying to Old Mrs. Wilson, "Look at this mess, what a disgrace."
During the engagement banquet, there were quite a few friends from their Wilson Clan. It was supposed to be a moment of satisfaction, but instead, they were embarrassed. What a situation!
"That’s also the Seymour Family’s disgrace, nothing to do with us," Old Mrs. Wilson said, completely indifferent.
"Who says it has nothing to do with us?" Old Mrs. Wilson wasn’t so optimistic, "Isn’t Sophie a member of our Wilson Clan?"
Two granddaughters, one stepping on the other, and the one being stepped on is the granddaughter they’ve always stood by, while the one in the spotlight stepping on others is the one they don’t acknowledge from the Wilson Clan.
"Who knows how people outside are laughing at us." Old Mrs. Wilson felt uncomfortable just thinking about it. At her age, this was truly a disgrace beyond compare.
