Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 331

"I do know her, but we’re not very close," Yvette said.

Sophia wanted to ask her what kind of person Madam Johnson was but did not know how to start. In fact, it would be even more appropriate for her to ask her mother this question. However, her mother’s current situation had made it difficult for her to ask her too much.

Yvette could roughly guess what she was trying to ask her about and took the initiative to say, "Objectively speaking, Madam Johnson is a marriage intruder. Her reputation isn’t very good either as she’s a little vain and small-minded. She, however, is your mom’s college roommate, so she’s very nice to your mother."

"Thanks for telling me that, Aunt Harris," Sophia said.

"You don’t have to be so reserved with me, my child." Yvette took her hand and pointed in Madam Johnson’s direction. "She's over there. Let’s go and meet her."

It would be inappropriate for Charles to go over as there were only women over there, hence he did not go with them.

Madam Johnson, like Shawn, had a pair of fox-like eyes that looked both charming and mean. When she saw Yvette and Sophia walking over, she covered her lips and smiled. "I was always the one who approached you, Madam Harris. It’s really rare to see that you’re actually here to see me today!"

"It’s been a while. We’re just here to say hello," Yvette said with a smile.

Harris and Cox were reputable families. Generally, guests would flock to Yvette. When did she ever take the initiative to approach someone?

Several other guests standing around them gazed at Madam Johnson with immensely envious and curious eyes.

"Your necklace is really gorgeous. How much was it? I want to buy one too." Madam Johnson asked, pointing at the necklace hanging around Sophia's neck.

Sophia smiled but did not answer the question directly. "Not much. It’s not as expensive as the one on your neck. What a large rough diamond. I don't dare think how much it cost."

"You will be surprised at how much it cost. Let me tell you, my husband bought this necklace at an auction—the cost was astronomical." Madam Johnson stroked the necklace around her neck carefully. "I am reluctant to wear it on normal occasions."

Sophia said smoothly and readily, "A precious diamond like that deserves to be cherished."

Yvette was slightly surprised. It had been quite some time since she last met Soph and she realized that she was more honey-tongued now. She looked at the elated-looking Madam Johnson and said, "Actually, Soph’s necklace was also bought at an auction. I’m sure you know who Sterling is, Madam Johnson? He’s Soph’s brother."

"Sterling is her brother?" Madam Johnson’s eyes widened as pointed at Sophia and said, "You… you are Sophia, Soph, Jen’s daughter?"

Sophia nodded. "I always hear my mother talk about her best friend, but I have never met you in person. Now that we’ve met, I realized that my mother forgot to tell me how beautiful you are."

"Oh, this child. You’re such a sweet talker." After learning that Sophia was Jenny's daughter, Madam Johnson took on a completely different attitude. She held her hand and asked her a lot about Jenny.

When Clara and Zachary came over, they happened to see Sophia and Madam Johnson having a pleasant conversation. She pouted with displeasure and walked up to Madam Johnson, greeting her reluctantly.

Madam Johnson was quite cordial toward her. On the contrary, she was not as warm and friendly toward Zachary and even hurled some verbal abuse at him.

"Why are you talking about Zachary like that?" Clara looked fiercely protective as she stood in front of Zachary, growling, "Even if a homewrecker like you have now become the legal wife, you still can't be so arrogant, no?"

Zachary stepped forward to tug at her. His ever-smiling face looked somewhat forlorn. "Stop it."

"No. I’m going to say it!" Clara roared furiously, "Zachary didn’t even say a word about it when you let Shawn take over the company and drove him out! Now that you’ve taken all the advantages and Zachary no longer a threat to you, why are you still attacking him? Do you have no conscience at all?"

Madam Johnson was so mad that her face had turned purple. She did not say anything for a very long time.

With the two of them at each other’s throats, Sophia was at a loss as to which side to take. Moreover, this was somebody else’s family affairs, hence she stood next to Yvette not uttering a word.
