Chapter 520 Miss Bad Breath

Elise tried to recall in her mind but she didn’t remember meeting this person before. “I’m sorry, but there were just way too many people who attended the ancestral recognition ceremony. I don’t have a good memory either, so I can’t quite recall things. May I know your name?”

Since she had addressed Elise as Miss Anderson, they must have met each other at the Anderson Residence. The girl heard her words and revealed a deep smile. Then, she flicked her long hair, which had fallen to the front of her chest, to the back while revealing the precious jewelry she wore on her hands and her neck.

“My name is Sophie Bowen. I’m Alexander’s cousin and we’ve met a few times before at the Griffith Residence.” She placed a hand on her chest with a smug expression and seemed to be intentionally trying to show off the jade ring on her hand.

Then, Elise nodded with a thoughtful look. Cousin? She must be some random distant relative then. Looks like she’s here to find fault with me.

 

“Your ring looks beautiful.” She smiled subtly before complimenting the girl.

As soon as she finished her sentence, she heard Sophie mentioning in an ambiguous tone, “It’s important for one to know their position. Some people have already known that they have an ill-fated life, yet they refused to stay in the countryside. Well, they still insisted on coming out and causing trouble for others. The Griffith Family had such a legendary background, but she managed to cause the downfall of both the family and its members. Look at her now; she has subsequently sunk her claws into Kenneth Bailey and seduced him with her wily moves. In actual fact, she’s just a joke in the eyes of others.”

The smile on Elise’s face gradually disappeared before it was replaced by a cold glint that flashed across her eyes. “Miss Sophie, you were merely an insignificant being previously, but today, I reckon you’ll leave a long-lasting impression on me forever because of the overpowering stench originating from your foul words, Miss Bad Breath.”

Meanwhile, Sophie was angered to the point where her face flushed red. “Shut up! Who are you calling foul?! I don’t even have bad breath!”

At the same time, her companions spoke up for her too.

“It’s hard for these country bumpkins to learn manners. Look at how she easily comes up with such hurtful words.”

“That’s right. This is too much! The chess match is about to start. If you don’t wish to be utterly humiliated, you should quickly get lost!”
