Sophia responded and then hung up the phone to wait.
Less than two minutes.

Kylan’s car had arrived.
Kylan personally got out of the car, opened the door for her, gently touched her hair with a tender motion, and softly began to speak:
“Let’s go, I’ll take you home first.”
Sophia nodded with a smile, then bent over and climbed into the
car.
And Pierce was watching from not far away as Sophia got into Kylan’s car.
The gaze and actions of the two people were exceptionally affectionate, glaringly so.
Pierce’s face was cold with anger holding a belly full of rage.
If only I had known not to take that one billion!

Very quickly.
The whole context of the matter was clear.
It turned out that Colin and Susie had teamed up to scheme against others, but they ended up provoking someone they shouldn’t have and were struck back.
The ending was, of course, immensely satisfying.
They were thoroughly lambasted online, to the point where they could have drowned in the spit.
Eagle Entertainment also announced the decision to dismiss Susie and Colin at the appropriate time.
Colin and Susie also shirked responsibility for who drugged, making a scene in the police station.
However, everyone never guessed who Colin and Susie were originally planning to scheme against!
The new trend quickly took over, and Leonard’s new work had already overshadowed everything else.
Pierce finally spent a few quiet days at her place.

It stopped.
Sophia breathed a sigh of relief and wholeheartedly threw herself into the new project.
The news from the hospital was that Old Master Zhou was still in a coma, but Bianca would wake up once every other day.
Although the period of consciousness was not long, only a mere ten minutes or so, this was already considered extremely good
news.
Sophia planned to visit Bianca at noon.
As a result, there was an unexpected person standing in front of Bianca’s hospital room window.
She slowly walked over, somewhat puzzled:
“Derick, how were you here?”
Derick paused, his stern and deep eyes softened slightly:
“I came to discuss matters with Dean Jiang, specifically about Mrs. Zhou’s condition. I was wondering if using a newly developed foreign device for stimulation might help her recover faster.”

Sophia nodded in understanding, dispelling the doubts in her
heart.
It turned out to be for business.
She paused, “Would it be better abroad? Have there been any successful cases?”
Derick’s eyes deepened a bit, he lowered his gaze and chuckled lightly:
“Did you care so much about the people of the Clement family?”
Sophia paused, then said calmly:
“Bianca had always been good to me, of course I cared.”
Derick looked meaningfully at the old lady lying inside the glass and sighed:
“Yeah, she was nice to everyone.
Sophia hadn’t fully understood his meaning when she heard Derick continue:
*Foreign instruments had a significant impact on organs. Adults could withstand it, but there might have been risks for the elderly and children.”

Sophia lowered her gaze in disappointment, pursed her lips, feeling somewhat regretful.
Bianca was indeed getting older, and the Clement family would not have taken any risks without complete certainty.
Derick paused for a few seconds, looking at her, he said:
“It’s getting late, I should go. Sophia, are you coming with me?”
Sophia nodded, she hadn’t planned to stay long anyway.
Derick and Sophia got on the elevator. The security on this floor was extremely strict, and there were few people who could
come up.
But as I went further down, there were gradually more people.
It was unknown who had pressed the floor button, but this exclusive elevator had stopped on the third floor.
Afterwards.
They saw a fair and tender little boy.
The little boy’s eyes were bright, he looked under three years old, dressed in a designer denim jumpsuit. He walked into the

elevator with a big smile.
Sophia paused for a moment, looking around, there was no one following behind him.
“Little one, who were you?”
The little boy, however, looked up at Derick with a beaming smile, cheerfully tilting his head back. He then opened his arms wide, asking for a hug.
Derick hesitated for a moment, ultimately unable to keep a cold face. He forced a somewhat gentle smile and reached out to embrace.
“Most likely, it’s a child who ran out. Shall we take him to the guidance desk downstairs?”
Sophia nodded, looking at the soft smile of the little boy, her heart softened a bit as well.
She couldn’t help but pinch his little cheek, then turned to look at Derick:
“Derick, you two look a bit alike, don’t you?”
The little boy waved at her with a beaming smile, indicating his fondness for her.

She didn’t notice the subtle, momentary stiffness on Derick’s face.
However, Sophia quickly noticed that something was off with the child.
“Could this child not speak?”
She discovered that no matter how the little boy opened his mouth, he couldn’t make any sound, not even the slightest bit of noise.
This was not normal.
Derick’s eyes darkened a bit, he held the child tighter, his face slightly stiff:
“Perhaps, maybe they came for a medical check–up?”
Sophia slapped her forehead, “Right, a child who can’t speak coming to the hospital would naturally be here for treatment.”
She looked at the child with a touch of heartache, and with a beaming smile, she gently pinched his chubby, soft little hand:
“Little one, you would definitely get better.”

The little child, with a beaming smile, grasped one of her fingers, his eyes brimming with laughter.
“What a little angel!”
Sophia couldn’t help but exclaim, “If only Kylan had gotten married and had children earlier, wouldn’t she have been able to be an aunt?”
Derick saw that she didn’t mind the child’s inability to speak at all, his eyes flickering slightly:
“Did you like children?”
Sophia suddenly remembered the little life she had lost, her smile faltering.
Then he laughed as if nothing had happened.
“Like it? Who wouldn’t like such a cute baby?”
Derick’s gaze softened.
Very quickly.
The elevator arrived.

All the emotions on Derick’s face converged in an instant.
They had just approached the information desk when they saw a familiar woman standing there, anxiously pointing and yelling at the nurse:
“The child was lost under your watch, why shouldn’t I come to you? Hurry up and find him for me!”
“My son was Luke from the Clement Group. If anything went wrong, you couldn’t afford the consequences even in death!”
Emelia stood there out of control, hysterical, looking very
anxious.
And the servants and bodyguards on the side were also somewhat at a loss.
The servant was somewhat nervous, holding the dazed Luke in his hand.
Luke was not even three years old, but he had suddenly gone from being the center of attention in the Clement family to being an illegitimate child, causing him to be unwelcome in both the Clement family and with Emelia.
The clothes she was wearing were all old ones she had worn before, they didn’t seem to fit well anymore. Her little face had lost its previous glow, she didn’t even dare to look up at Emelia,

constantly hiding behind the maid.
Emelia, in anger, slapped the servant across the face.
“It’s all your fault for not keeping a close eye on the young master. I’ve told you before not to bother with this imposter. Let him go wherever he wants to go.
“You actually left my son behind to go find him, it seems like you don’t want this job anymore. Pack your things and get out!”
Not content with just hitting the servant, she suddenly pushed little Luke, who was hiding next to the servant, away.
Tears immediately welled up in Luke’s eyes, his appearance of wanting to cry but not daring to, made people feel
uncomfortable inside.
“Ah, Luke Zhou found it…”
