Chapter 24
Eagle Entertainment’s announcement made it a big deal.
The more “Emelia” there were, and less “Sophia” there would be.
The curses during the day suddenly all disappeared.
People who had felt sorry for Emelia were crying foul for Sophia.
Problems that had been deliberately hidden were exposed.
Office ladies‘ trouble and sadness were shown.
Big celebrities in Eagle Entertainment also made announcements one by
one.
They said that the company protected its employees very well, that they went to parties with companions, and that there were no hidden rules.
It wasn’t a peaceful night.
Emelia had trouble sleeping.
People on the Internet started digging into her past. Emelia panicked.
She called Pierce a thousand times but got no response.
Emelia looked at her kid, who was sleeping soundly on the bed. She gritted her teeth, directly took off Luke’s clothes, and put him on the balcony.
Three o’clock in the morning.
Pierce got a call from the hospital and heard that Luke had a high fever.
Pierce frowned and came with Devan anyway.
He didn’t expect public opinion during the daytime would reverse.
When Sophia was in trouble, Pierce planned to let Emelia explain it to the public when people calmed down. It would take at least two days.
However, Sophia fought back in a perfect way.
Pierce felt complicated. He was both depressed and impressed.
Once again, Sophia surprised him.
But with Emelia, Pierce was very disappointed.
That night, when Emelia called him for help, Pierce actually believed that she was in danger.
But it turned out to be a play made by Emelia.
So, the whole day, Pierce didn’t pick up Emelia’s calls.
The Clement Group held shares in the private hospital. Getting a call at midnight, Pierce came.
Outside the ward.
Pierce saw Emelia. Emelia wore pajamas. Her hair was messy. Because of all the tears, her eyes were red and swollen. Emelia sat in the chair like at hopeless mess, looked sad and sorry, and was sobbing.
Her lonely and pathetic look made her look like a tender mother instead of a bitch.
There was a complicated look in Pierce’s eyes, but Pierce walked over
anyway.

Emelia raised her head. When she saw Pierce, more tears rolled down her face. Emelia reached out to hold Pierce’s waist tight.
It was like she finally had someone to rely on. Emelia couldn’t help but sob.
“Darion asked me to take care of the kid before he died. But I didn’t do it well. I’m so sorry. If anything happens to Luke, how can I live?”
Hearing Darion’s name, Pierce frowned solemnly. He patted Emelia’s shoulder and said in a deep voice.
“Luke will be fine. Don’t worry.”
When Pierce was speaking, the doctor came out.
“Mr. Clement, Mr. Luke got a sudden high fever. He was sent over too late. There are symptoms of inflammation in his lungs now. After the rescue, his condition is still not stable. We need to wait and see if the
fever will be gone tomorrow.”
Pierce looked serious. The doctor sighed.
“The kid suddenly got ill. The physical check a few days ago showed that he was very healthy.
“This is odd. If the fever isn’t gone tomorrow, there may be other symptoms, and both his lungs and brain will be affected. By then, it will be a serious problem.”
Emelia shivered. Then, her body became stiff. Emelia raised her pale face, tears falling down.
“Pierce, save Luke. Please…”
With a worried face, Pierce looked at the doctor.
“Save him at any cost.”

Chapter 24
The doctor knew it was a serious matter. After all, Luke was the Clement family’s first grandkid. The doctor must be careful.
After the doctor left, Devan went to go through the formalities.
Pierce looked at Emelia with his deep eyes.
Emelia pressed her lips, sobbing.
“Luke started to have a high fever in the afternoon. I called you, but you didn’t answer. People online were scolding me. I was afraid that if people saw me with Luke, Luke might get hurt. Thus, I didn’t dare to take him to the hospital.”
The look on Pierce’s face was cool. His voice was deep and aloof.
“Did
you watch the video?”
Hearing that, Emelia knew that Pierce suspected her.
Emelia cried sadly, looking very pathetic.
“You know Sophia hates me a lot. I didn’t want to drink it because I thought they put medicine in it. I was afraid…”
Hearing that, Pierce found it ridiculous.
He knew that Sophia wouldn’t play such a dirty trick against Emelia.
After a while of silence, Pierce frowned and said in a deep voice.
“I told you that I wanted you to go a help you enter Eagle Entertainment?”
Why did you ask my mother to
Emelia paused. Then, she looked at Pierce with red eyes.

“What if I tell you that I don’t want to leave you?”
Pierce squinted his eyes, in which there were mixed emotions. But there was most indifference.
“You should know that I take care of you and Luke because of my brother, Darion.”
Darion was Pierce’s brother. But no one knew that he was a member of the Clement family.
Because Darion was born after Kamden divorced his first wife, Gina Clement.
Gina left with Darion. It was too late when Kamden regretted divorcing her. Luckily, Ava gave birth to Pierce the next year.
Darion and Pierce met at a foreign university and got on well with each other.
Chapter 24
Three years ago, Emelia went abroad and quickly started dating Darion. The next year, Luke was born.
Sadly, Darion died in an explosion accident.
To take care of Emelia and Luke, Pierce brought them back to the country and told people that Luke was his illegitimate son.
He would tell people who Luke really was because Ava wouldn’t agree.
The past flashed through Pierce’s mind. There was a sad look in his eyes.
When Emelia heard what Pierce said, her body was a little stiff. But Emelia forced a smile.
“I was just kidding. I’m used to it when you look after me. I’m afraid of getting into danger abroad.
