039. Meeting With that Pretentious Woman Again

Elly Campbell was the favored daughter, blessed by everything the world could offer, while Sophie was nothing more than an illegitimate child, unacknowledged by the Campbell family—an ant struggling to crawl on the ground. The deep-seated inferiority that ran through her veins only heightened her fear when faced with Elly.

She feared Elly, but at the same time, she envied her. Both were daughters of James Campbell, so why should Elly's life be so much better than hers?

When Elly saw her, she merely gave Sophie a brief, indifferent glance before ignoring her completely, as if she were a stranger. Elly's gaze stayed fixed ahead as she walked toward the hospital cafeteria.

Sophie Baker's emotions churned within her. She feared Elly, but the cold dismissal stung deeper than anything else. The same blood ran through their veins, and though her mother was a mistress hidden in the shadows, she and Elly were still both daughters of James Campbell.
