"Listen, listen to what she’s saying!" Cassandra Lee was so furious that her graying hair was trembling, and she turned to glare angrily at Stephen Wilson, "Is this the kind of good daughter you raised?"
"Grandma, don’t be angry, don’t be angry!" Grace Wilson was terrified, afraid that Cassandra might be overly upset, and kept patting her back to help her calm down.
"Mom, quick, have some water." Lily Warren naturally didn’t have anything to say against her mother-in-law and took care of her attentively.
After handing Cassandra the water, Lily Warren turned and cast a reproachful look at Stephen Wilson: "Stephen, are you just going to stand by and say nothing while our mom gets this upset?"
Sophie Wilson laughed inwardly with ridicule, thinking Lily Warren was really good at rallying allies.
Who didn’t know that Stephen Wilson was very filial?
Even though he could be considered successful these days—not on par with major corporations, but among his peers, his filial piety was well known.
Before he made his fortune, Stephen was already filial, and now he still treats his mother with consistent devotion.
Unfortunately, that’s just how outsiders see it.
In Sophie’s eyes, Stephen’s so-called filial piety was probably just using Cassandra Lee as a shield.
If he was truly so filial, would he have made a mess with Lily Warren and still run off outside?
Shouldn’t he have registered their marriage by now?
And after bringing her back from outside, he married Lily Warren under the guise of being filial to Cassandra Lee.
Oh, but it was just in form, he never registered the marriage with Lily Warren.
This Stephen Wilson, so piously filial, only used his so-called filial piety to mask his selfishness and shamelessness.
Having lived through it all, she naturally saw it clearly.
As for Cassandra Lee and Lily Warren... they were still in the dark.
"Sophie, that’s your grandmother." Stephen Wilson looked at Sophie Wilson in reproach, earnestly reminding her, "You’re grown up now, why don’t you understand manners?"
"My grandmother?" Sophie looked surprisedly at Cassandra Lee, then shifted her gaze to Stephen, laughing as she said, "If you hadn’t reminded me, I would have really forgotten."
"Listen! Is this humanly possible to say?" Cassandra Lee was so angry that she pounded her chest, her breath coming in weak gasps as if to pressure Stephen to give Sophie a proper lesson.
If not for Sophie’s shameless mother seducing her son back then, how would Lily have had to suffer so much, accepting a Sophie of unknown origin?
Had Sophie been sensible, it might have been fine.
But now, not only was she not sensible, she was stirring up trouble, and if not disciplined, wouldn’t she turn everything upside down?
"Sophie Wilson!" Even the ever-filial Stephen Wilson was angered by Sophie’s unruliness, shouting angrily and glaring at her with discontent, "Is that how you speak to your grandmother?"
"I’m just speaking the truth." Sophie said with amusement, "If she’s really my grandmother, knowing I almost got sold off to pay a debt, she could still act like nothing happened? I think only a step-grandmother would do something like that."
Grace Wilson’s face changed, nervously giving a tight squeeze on Cassandra Lee, causing her a slight pain.
Cassandra felt the pain but didn’t intend to blame Grace, instead feeling full of heartache.
Look at what a cautious child Grace is, scared to the point of turning into this.
That Sophie Wilson really is a troublemaker!
