“Ms. Cruise, why are you here? You just divorced Pierce. Are you now with Mr. Cruise?”
When she said that, people heard her and looked over in shock.
Emelia’s voice was not very loud but was clear to others.
“Or did you agree to get divorced because of him?”

“If you don’t feel good, I’ll drive her away. Don’t let her spoil your mood.”
He comforted her quietly and led Sophia in another direction.

Sophia didn’t look at Pierce at all and sneered in an indifferent voice.
“Never mind. I don’t want to be entangled with them. It’s embarrassing.”

She didn’t want to attract others‘ attention because of her relationship with Pierce.
Pierce’s face darkened with a gloomy vibe.
Seeing them away, Pierce had sharp and dangerous eyes.
He had feelings beyond description as if his chest would explode.
Emelia grabbed Pierce’s sleeves in fear and bit her lips restlessly.
“Pierce, did I say something wrong? I just feel it’s unfair for you that she met another man so soon!”

The hall quieted down gradually.
Kylan took Sophia to the middle of the crowd, attracting people’s attention.

“Pierce…”
She looked at Pierce nervously. A touch of panic flashed in her eyes.
Pierce pressed his lips and frowned slightly, saying in a cold voice.
“Maybe we should talk about it some other day.”
He didn’t expect Sophia to be the new director of Eagle Entertainment.
It was an important position. How could she get it?
Pierce wondered if it was because of Kylan.
Pierce’s face darkened.

“You suddenly became the new director? Who made you the director?”
Pierce looked at Sophia, who was mild. The anger surged in his heart, but he remained calm.
With a step forward, his tall figure shed a shadow over her. He put the wine glass heavily on the piano and put one hand on the piano with the other on her soft and thin waist.
“It’s reasonable for me to ask since I’m a stakeholder of Eagle Entertainment, right?”
Pierce looked at her, his voice deep and hoarse.
Her waist was so soft and slim. He wondered if Kylan would feel that way
too.

Sophia raised her leg to hit him in his crotch with her knee.
Pierce’s face became pale. The pain made him unable to stand straight. As he bent, he almost put his head on her shoulder. He let go of her and clutched his fists subconsciously. Sweat came out of his forehead.
Sophia stood there, looking down at him expressionlessly with indifference.
She sneered slightly and said in a cold tone.
“Mr. Clement, you only have 3% of the shares. Do you have the right to doubt the decision of shareholders‘ meetings?”
