Chapter 48
Sophia gave a faint smile, Derick really had gone overboard with his enthusiasm.
I stubbornly waited here until Brycen came home, then invited him to have dinner together. He gladly agreed and only left after finishing the meal.
Brycen gave her a satisfied glance.
It seemed like she could finally open her eyes to see the world!
“Derick was good, just unfamiliar and unknown. Take it slow.”
Sophia’s mouth was stiff from laughing.
“Dad, we were just friends when we first met…”
Derick had said he liked her a few times, and she really believed it to be
true?
Brycen chuckled, didn’t say much, and went upstairs to report the matter to his wife!
After resting at home for a few days, Sophia’s foot injury gradually

improved.
Sandra occasionally called her to share some gossip.
Early morning.
She received a call from Sandra early in the morning and answered it, still half–asleep:
“Miss, you got up so early?”
Sandra chuckled, a hint of impatience in her voice:
“I told you, Pierce has been frantically looking for you recently, he even came to me, almost turned the whole Aberdyfi upside down!”
Sophia fell silent for a few seconds, coming to her senses, her eyes gradually becoming clear and cold.
“Looking for me?”
“Yeah, maybe after being cuckolded and becoming a laughingstock, you still found me obedient and wanted to rekindle the old flame!”
Sandra sneered, “But I won’t tell him. A two–timing bastard, thinking everyone is after him!”
Sophia tugged at the corner of her mouth, her eyelashes slightly drooping:

“Don’t mind him, he ruins the mood.”
Sandra said a few words and then hung up.
The doctor came to check on Sophia’s foot, and only after he said it was completely healed did Brycen allow her to go out.
The sky was clear and bright.
As soon as she stepped out, even her mood started to improve.
Hadn’t arrived at the company yet when I received a call from Bianca.
Her voice sounded off, as if she was very upset.
After a few remarks, he finally got to the point:
“Sophie, you didn’t even tell Grandma about something as big as a divorce. Grandma was truly devastated when she found out.”
Sophia fell silent for a moment, feeling a bitter taste in her heart.
Bianca was indescribably good to her.
“I’m sorry, Grandma…”

“How could it be your fault? Grandma knows, it’s all Pierce’s fault. That woman outside can’t even compare to a single toe of yours, he must be blind.”
“Grandma has been upset these past few days, it’s because she didn’t protect you well…”
Sophia’s heart tightened, she quickly said:
“Don’t be sad, Grandma. Even if the divorce happened, I still consider you as my own grandmother.”
Bianca took a deep breath, “Forget it, let’s not talk about those things. I heard you’re working at Eagle Entertainment. I’m at the coffee shop across from your company. Let’s meet up…
Sophia also thought it was better to talk face–to–face, agreed immediately, and stepped on the gas.
Five minutes later.
Sophia arrived downstairs and parked the car.
Just as she was about to get out of the car, Bianca joyfully waved at the two elderly people across the street.
She smiled, waved, and was just about to walk over.

Bianca was already impatiently pulling Old Master Zhou towards this
way.
At that moment, a dilapidated red car parked by the roadside suddenly started.
Didn’t give anyone any reaction time.
Charged straight towards Bianca and old man Zhou-
Sophia’s face suddenly changed, “Don’t come over…”
She roared in a hoarse voice, but it was already too late.
Old Master Zhou keenly wanted to push Bianca away, but it was already too late.
Due to the tremendous impact, he rolled in the car, and then instantly fell from it.
Bianca, on the other hand, was hit and thrown several meters away, unconscious…
The car hummed for a moment, then didn’t stop, it just left directly.

the black mole on the side of the face were particularly noticeable.
Her face was as white as a sheet, she didn’t have time to hesitate, she ran over in a panic:
“Grandpa and Grandma…”
She took out her phone, dialed the emergency number with trembling hands, and then called the police with a voice that was calm and clear.
But she could feel her palms sweating, the fear spreading to every corner, making her unable to control the sudden surge of sorrow.
Then he called Pierce again.
But no one answered.
She used her connection with the Cruise family to find the best doctor, following all the way to the outside of the emergency room.
She trembled slightly all over, dialed Pierce again, and finally, he answered.
But the person who answered was not Pierce.
Emelia’s voice was charming and melodious:
“Ms. Cruise, how could you be so shameless to still pester Pierce? You’re

divorced, don’t you know to avoid suspicion? You’re not trying to play hard to get, are you?”
Sophia’s heart sank, her tone icy:
“Where was Pierce?”
Emelia chuckled softly, deliberately speaking in a suggestive and ambiguous manner, her voice so seductive it could draw out silk.
“He was taking a shower and didn’t have time to answer your call. If you have any shame, stop pestering us here and interrupting our good time!”
She said, and directly hung up the phone.
Sophia glanced out the window, and a few seconds later, she chuckled. softly.
There was no need to speculate about what had happened between them. Even if Emelia had cheated on him, he would have forgiven her.
Indeed, it was true love!
She steadied herself and directly called Pierce’s assistant, Kasen, telling him all about the car accident and asking him to notify the Clement family to come to the hospital as soon as possible.
Kasen didn’t hesitate and was also very efficient in handling matters.

The other side.
The VIP ward of the hospital.
Pierce came out of the bathroom and saw Emelia holding his phone in her hand.
His brows furrowed. “What were you doing?”
If Luke hadn’t accidentally peed on himself, Pierce wouldn’t have been here cleaning up.
He was a clean freak.
Emelia frantically wanted to delete her call history with Sophia, but she was already a step too late.
The phone was snatched away by Pierce. He glanced at it and his face. immediately turned cold.
“Did you answer the call she made to me?”
Emelia stood there in a panic, her eyes rimmed red, seemingly extremely wronged:
“I was afraid there was some emergency, so I told her you were taking a shower, and she just hung up.”

Pierce, was she still bothering you?
“She was still coveting Mrs. Clement’s position, her divorce from you was just a ruse to make you lower your guard. Don’t fall for it!”
There was a hint of irritation in Pierce’s eyes, his tone cooling by a few degrees:
“You’d better not touch my phone in the future.”
Emelia looked at him with tear–filled eyes, pitiful and helpless, her voice soft and confused:
“I’m sorry, it was my fault. I have depression and I couldn’t find my child, I was really too anxious!”
Otherwise, I would go explain to Ms. Cruise…
Pierce’s vision was pitch black, upon hearing of her illness, his chilliness receded a bit.
“No need, the more you describe, the darker it gets.”
He was speaking when his phone rang again.
He hurried to see, it turned out to be Kasen.
He picked it up, Kasen’s voice was rapid:
Chapter 48
“Mr. Clement, Ms. Cruise said that Grandpa Zhou and the old lady had a car accident, and they are currently being rescued in the hospital…”
Pierce was suddenly startled, his aura instantly turning cold:
“What did you say?”
Without a word, he turned around and walked out.
Was Sophia looking for him about this matter?
Emelia heard the content and couldn’t wait to follow out.
“I haven’t seen my grandparents yet, let me go, I’m also very worried…”
