194. This is not Elly Campbell_1

"Dad, it's not Elly's fault, I'm fine, let's go."

"Go? What do you mean, go?"

James Campbell shook off Sophie Baker's extended hand and glared at Elly with a harsh tone, "Elly, don't push your luck. How many times have you bullied Sophie? Every time, she has shown nothing but tolerance towards you. Do you still know what it means to be a sister?"

The obvious bias James Campbell showed towards his illegitimate daughter over his legitimate one, commanding with authority, made the bystanders uncomfortable.

Adam Jones furrowed his brows and gazed deeply at James Campbell; he was about to speak when he heard Elly's hoarse voice, softly rising—

"Dad."

Her voice was very low, and at the sound of her calling him 'dad,' James Campbell paused, startled.

Hearing the words "Dad" from Elly's mouth felt incredibly distant to James Campbell, so distant that he could not even remember the last time she called him that.

When Elly lifted her eyes to look at him, her eyes were already red.
