Chapter 71

Sophia's voice was cold and clear, yet like an ice axe, she chiseled every word heavily into his heart.

Pierce was liberated, but Sophia was not.

She might have to immerse herself in this indescribable sorrow. forever.

The child he had easily given up on back then, she had initially counted this life on him and Emelia.

He could say indifferently that it was all in the past.

But she couldn't..

That was truly an angel that had appeared in her life! Chapter 71

At that time, he had saved her life.

They settled their accounts.

Sophia had spoken.

Pierce was shocked, standing still, his body rigid.

The color of the face gradually turned ashen and ugly.

The ward was silent for a long time.

Just heard Pierce's rough, low voice rise again:

So that's what you thought."

She still hated him, even though he had saved her life.

That child was the insurmountable barrier between them.

For the first time, he felt completely powerless, realizing that even if he gave his all, he could not make up for everything he had missed.

That kind of panic flashed through his heart, his fists clenched tighter and tighter, but he could never grasp what he wanted.

She was clear about her grievances, and she didn't pester relentlessly. She was just calmly and rationally expressing her feelings. She rejected his offer to start anew, and also refused to erase the past.

Sophia was looking out the window when she suddenly felt a

warm liquid falling from the corner of her eye. Before she could wipe it away, she saw Pierce striding towards her and he swep her into his arms.

His chin rested on the top of her head, she had once been so fond of his embrace, in an instant it was as if she had returned to the past.

But in the past, he had never held her so earnestly and strongly, he was always perfunctory.

Sophia's nose tingled, the overwhelming sadness instantly engulfed her. Her heart felt as if it was being tightly strangled by a thin thread, causing a pain so intense that even breathing felt difficult. She struggled to push away, but Pierce tightly gripped her wrist.

Pierce wiped away her tears for her, his voice deep and rough: Chapter 21

"I knew you wouldn't forgive me so quickly, and I also knew yo couldn't let me go from your heart. I hoped you would take ca of yourself, I was always waiting for you to come back."

He lowered his eyelids, his eyes deep and profound.

"Come to me if you need anything, don't look for a substitute."

The tone of his last sentence was slightly cold.

Sophia squinted her eyes, the gloom in her heart suddenly dissipated, replaced by a touch of faint anger and ridicule. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Pierce's phone ring. He didn't avoid it, picked it up and looked, the name "Emelia" was displayed on it.

Her emotions collapsed in an instant, and she took the opportunity to step back indifferently, creating a distance and Chapter 21

returning to her usual cold aloofness.

He had true love by his side, how could he have the nerve to s he wanted to reconcile with himself?

Pierce's brows were tightly knitted as he glanced at her, hesitated for a second, then heard Sophia speak in a mocking

tone:

"The act you just put on, I almost thought you were serious. Yo should propose to the one you love, she would be the one to gratefully go along with you, shedding tears of joy."

It had been three years, did he still think that a few sweet words could easily deceive her?

Sophia had long since stopped being love-struck. She felt it was beneath her to compete with other women for men.

Only when she no longer loved him, could she face his pleas

with a calm heart.

Pierce gave her a complex look, speaking in a heavy tone:

"She was not the one I loved, everything I just said was seriou

It seemed as if to prove his point, he answered Emelia's call right in front of Sophia.

Before I could even open my mouth, Emelia's gentle and sweet voice came through.

"Pierce, when were you coming back for dinner? Joshua missec his dad. Let's have a family meal when Joshua gets home. Oh, by the way, you promised to marry me in front of Joshua last time..." Before Emelia could finish her words, Sophia had already let out a cold laugh. She lifted her eyes, her clear pupils filled with mockery as she looked at Pierce

Pierce's face had turned green, his brows furrowed as he hastil hung up the phone.

"Joshua was my elder brother's son, just brought back from abroad. He couldn't speak and didn't know that my elder brothe had passed away. I was just trying to comfort him when I..." "Pierce, you don't have to explain anything to me, I'm not interested in your affairs. And please, stop pretending to be so deeply moved in the future, it's utterly hypocritical!"

After speaking in a cold voice, Sophia just stared at the door.

"I needed to rest, so I left."

She didn't even want to take another look.

Pierce's brows were furrowed, his face tense. He pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but he felt that she was too

angry to believe anything he said at the moment.

"Take a good rest, call me if anything comes up."

He finished speaking, paused for a moment, then turned and left.

Calling him might have made things worse!

Sophia sneered, calming down, her gaze slightly heavy as she picked up the phone:

"Sandra, it was me."

Sandra received a phone call and rushed to the hospital excitedly.

Sophia changed her clothes, her expression serene:

"It's okay, it was just a false alarm anyway. I'm glad you're fine."

"Have you really decided?"

Sandra watched her swiftly change into her clothes, a hint of cold determination in her eyes and brows, "Why not let someone else do it?"

"No, my own vengeance, I must take it myself."

Sandra nodded, "Alright, call me if you need anything."

Emelia received a call from a director, saying that an actor had fallen ill and couldn't make it, and asked if she was willing to go

now.

Emelia couldn't even replace a job now, the troupe wouldn't want her anymore, and her public image wasn't great either. Yet, she was reluctant to do anything else.

So when I heard about this opportunity, I was extremely excited and immediately agreed to it.

Just after hanging up the phone, a sense of unease settled in my heart, so I called Nolan to inquire about the background of this director.

Upon hearing the name, Nolan immediately said:

"This director had left from Eagle Entertainment, having a very unpleasant fallout with Eagle Entertainment."

Hearing this, Emelia was finally able to relax.

She packed her things and went to the suburban shooting shed. mentioned by the director.

The crew was already gone. She looked at the empty, abandoned shooting stage, angrily called the director, but couldn't get through.

She was just about to turn around and leave, when suddenly the door in front of her was locked from the outside.

Emelia's face changed instantly, she ran over quickly, frantically knocking on the door:

"Who is it, do you know who I am? Pierce is my fiance, I am the future mistress of the Clement family, who dares to provoke me so recklessly." There was no sound outside the door.

An idea struck Emelia, and she took out her phone:

""Pierce saved me..."

Very quickly.

Someone had thrown a lighter through the only ventilation opening...
