Chapter 100
Ava’s face gradually stiffened, she couldn’t hold herself together anymore.
How could this bitch Sophia act even more wronged and better than her!
She originally wanted to build up a good mother–in–law image for herself, but she ended up ruining it!
Ava’s face turned pale with anger, she gritted her teeth and glared at Sophia, then walked over to Annie and gave a hypocritical smile.
“If it were you, you would definitely get along well with my aunt. You come from a good family and have great abilities. With you at home, Pierce would be able to devote himself to his career with peace of mind.”
“When you guys were married in the future…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Pierce’s cold voice suddenly rang out from behind, carrying a suppressed anger:
“Who was getting married?”
Ava paused, turning her head to look at him:
“Pierce, this is Ms. Stapleton, the pianist I mentioned to you. She won
Chapter 100
countless awards at a young age.”
“Didn’t you pick her up last time? You two should have gotten along well…”
Pierce impatiently interrupted her:
“The person who picked her up last time was the driver, I was very busy and didn’t have time to go.”
Ava’s face changed color.
Was just about to get angry.
Annie immediately laughed and said, “The main thing is what matters, who picks up the person is not important, there is always a chance to meet.”
She looked at Pierce with a smile, a certain unusual emotion subtly flowing in her eyes:
“Pierce, do you still remember me? I’m Annie, we were high school classmates.”
Pierce’s eyes darkened, his tone icy:
“I couldn’t remember.”

After he finished speaking, he turned around directly, looking at Sophia who hadn’t yet come out of the play.
Especially her reddened eyes, Pierce’s heart tightened abruptly.
He used to grab her wrist directly, his eyes gloomily fixed on Ava.
“I had said it before, who I marry is my business, I don’t want others to
interfere.”
Saying so, she took Sophia and left.
Ava was so angry that she couldn’t even hold her wine glass steady.
Annie’s face, however, had a moment of embarrassed gloom.
The people nearby all looked at each other in dismay.
“That Sophia really was talented!”
“Exactly, they both got divorced and hooked up, quite impressive huh!”
“Annie, you wouldn’t lose to her!”
Annie tugged at the corner of her mouth, watching their retreating figures. She didn’t say a word, but a surge of jealousy quietly grew in her
heart.
Chapter 100
He divorced Sophia, parted ways with Emelia, and his illegitimate child also disappeared. Wasn’t it the best time for him now?
She raised her eyebrows, looking at the crowd and said:
“Excuse me.”
Pierce took Sophia away, the quiet corridor lights shimmering.
He thought she had been bullied to tears by a group of people, so he was burning with anger.
Turning his head, he saw her looking at him with cold, clear eyes, her brows furrowed.
Pierce pinched the soft wrist in his hand, but before he could do anything else, she pulled away and went to wash her hands in the nearby women’s
restroom.
Pierce’s heart sank:
At that moment, the noise from the front suddenly erupted.
Camille shouted loudly, “Bro, that bitch Emelia is here!”
Pierce’s eyebrows furrowed and he immediately went ahead.
Sophia heard the noise and followed to see what was happening.

Chapter 100
He just watched as Emelia tore at Annie’s clothes, like a madwoman.
Annie was slender and frail, not a match for her at all.
The next second.
Emelia forcefully pushed her onto the pyramid–shaped stack of wine glasses beside them. In an instant, the stack of glasses fell to the ground, spilling wine and scattering shards of glass everywhere.
And Annie, pale–faced, fell into the glass, her skirt and arms all covered in blood.
It was shocking to the core.
The birthday feast was suddenly interrupted, everyone looked on in shock.
Ava, shocked, covered her mouth and was unable to speak from the side.
Emelia revealed a triumphant smirk, pointing at Annie’s nose and cursing:
“You thought I didn’t know what you were up to?”
Who were you dressing so provocatively for?
“You just wanted to seduce him, I’ve seen these tricks many times, you
Chapter 100
wretch!”
She cursed satisfyingly, casually picking up a wine bottle and intending to throw it at Annic.
But the next second, her hand was seized by someone, and the glass fell to the ground.
Emelia turned around, looking shocked at the grim–faced Pierce.
“Pierce……”
Her voice suddenly softened, her lips trembling as she was about to say something, when Pierce slapped her.
With a “pop“, Emelia covered her face in shock.
“How could you hit me for that wretch? She just tried to drug your drink to seduce you, and I caught her!”
Annie seemed as if she hadn’t yet recovered from the shock, her face pale as she slowly lifted her head, her eyes brimming with tears.
That kind of reaction, as if she was wronged, didn’t require a single word. Everyone would unconditionally believe in her innocence.
Pierce’s face looked extremely unpleasant as he glanced at the bodyguard
next to him:
Chapter 100
“Take the person away!”
The bodyguard immediately stepped in, restraining Emelia, who began to cry as if she had gone mad:
“Pierce, it was all my mom’s doing, those things had nothing to do with me. How could I hurt you when I love you so much!”
Pierce’s brow slightly furrowed, his face tense as he turned to look down at Annie, who was softly sobbing.
He bent down and scooped up the person in his arms, “To the hospital.”
Sophia stood there watching, unaware of when Derick had arrived behind her.
He served her a glass of juice, the corner of his mouth unconsciously curling up.
“Mr. Clement’s peach blossoms have always been thriving!”
Sophia tugged at the corner of her lips:
“Emelia wouldn’t back down, the evidence wasn’t enough to prove that she had orchestrated her mother’s murder.”
Derick chuckled lightly, “The key is whether Mr. Clement would believe
Chapter 100
it.”
Even with evidence, it was only an attempt, Emelia could get away with it by finding a lawyer.
Sophia raised an eyebrow, didn’t say anything.
Derick suddenly grabbed her hand, pulling her towards where the music was playing.
“Let’s go, let’s dance.”
“I couldn’t.”
“I didn’t believe.”
He glanced at her teasingly.
Sophia was speechless.
The two people chuckled and then entered the dance floor.
In order to put the recent unpleasantness behind, Kamden and Ava were also involved.
Watching Derick and Sophia, this pair, come in, everyone seemed a bit shocked.
Chapter 100
Derick was the person in power at the Woodward Group, with countless. assets, yet he was close to Sophia, who had been divorced.
Many people were secretly envious.
Sophia was initially a bit reserved, but Derick followed her lead, completely giving her the initiative. Therefore, she gradually relaxed and danced exceptionally smoothly.
Derick looked down at her with gentle eyes, the two of them appearing quite intimate from an outsider’s perspective.
And below, Camille, having witnessed this scene, had her eyes welling up with tears.
The elegant lady in the black skirt next to me couldn’t help but speak up:
“How nice you were to her, always addressing her respectfully as ‘sister- in–law. Yet, she was secretly seducing the man you liked behind your back. How could you still be so polite to such a person?”
“If it were me, I would have splashed wine in her face and kicked her out. Let’s see who she flirts with then!”
Camille’s face turned pale, she bit her lower lip:
“She was my sister–in–law, she donated her bone marrow to me, she was a good person, she wouldn’t treat me like that.”
Chapter 100
As she spoke, she ran off with tears welling up in her eyes.
The speaker sneered:
“What a fool, who doesn’t know that she donated bone marrow to you for your brother, she’s not kind at all!”
