Chapter 38
Emelia raised her head and her face turned pale.
Although Pierce didn’t speak it out, Emelia knew that he meant she couldn’t be compared with Sophia.
She gritted her teeth and thought, “I won’t lose to Sophia.”
After the scandals online, the program got a lot of attention.
Emelia had to leave this program. The producer was so happy and wanted
to celebrate it.
Luke’s birthday banquet was grand.
Even the Cruise Group received the invitation, let alone other celebrities.
Chapter 31
Brycen threw the invitation on the table and said angrily.
“He’s so shameless. He just wants to tell the world that he has an illegitimate child.
“Not long after Sophia divorced him, Pierce took his illegitimate child and his mistress back. Did he want to humiliate Sophia?”
They wanted to bully Sophia. How could Brycen endure it?
The living room was silent. No one dared to speak.
Sophia went in and heard Brycen’s voice. She felt something weird and chuckled.
“Dad, it’s so lively. It’s a pity if I can’t go. I’ll change my clothes and go there with you. Don’t be angry.”
Chapter 38
Looking at her happy back, Brycen covered his chest with his hands. He looked at the butler.
“Does she still like Pierce? Why does she want to attend this banquet?”
The butler thought for a while and said hesitantly.
“Ms. Cruise seems to want to do evil…”
He knew Sophia when she was a child. Every time she would cause trouble, she would be excited, just like her expression just now.

When they arrived at the banquet, it was rainy outside.
The Clement family invited many celebrities to this banquet. They also invited many media to report this.
Sophia wore a simple strapless dress. It showed her good figure and she looked amazed.
As she got out of the car, she held Kylan’s arm and walked ove media took photos of her.
She smiled gently and attracted people’s attention.
As she appeared, everyone’s gaze was focused on her.

Although many people discussed their affairs, Sophia seemed not to be influenced. She was still charming.
One of the reporters couldn’t help but ask.
“Ms. Cruise, as Mr. Clement’s ex–wife, why will you attend the banquet? He holds a banquet for his illegitimate son. Are you going to cause trouble for him?”
Chapter 30
People all stared at her.
Last time, at Luke’s birthday banquet, Sophia asked for a divorce.
She came here again. Would she have another plan today?
Sophia curled b
lips gently and smiled.
“Of course not. I’m here to congratulate them.”
People were obsessed with her charming smile. Soon, Sophia and Kylan entered the hall.
Inside the hall was luxurious. It seemed to be grander than Luke’s birthday banquet.
Pierce was standing there and talking to someone. He immediately noticed Sophia.

He also saw Kylan next to her.
Pierce narrowed his eyes.
He deliberately didn’t invite her, but Sophia still came.
Pierce suddenly felt anxious and uneasy.
He was stunned because of her. But as he saw her, he was shocked.
Pierce couldn’t help but recall what happened at Luke’s birthday banquet and her sadness.
And their unborn child….
If she saw him recognize his other child, would she be sadder?
For a moment, Pierce thought much. He even felt heartbroken, as if someone stabbed his heart.
He walked over step by step and stared at Sophia’s expression.

She must be very sad. However, she pretended well and he didn’t like her smile.
Pierce looked at her with his black eyes, pursed his lips, and asked in a low voice.
“Why are you here?”
He wondered, “Do you want to show me that you’re good?”
Sophia smiled faintly and said sincerely.

“Congratulations! I’m here to witness this important moment.”
Pierce’s jaw was clenched.
He had mixed feelings.
Beside them, Kylan smiled casually and interrupted them.

“It’s really a grand banquet today. I’m afraid that Mr. Clement’s wedding back then couldn’t be compared with this.
“It seems that you’re satisfied that the Clement Group has an inheritor. Maybe I’ll attend Mr. Clement’s wedding again soon.”
Pierce frowned tightly. He glared at Kylan and put on a cold face.
Kylan was telling the truth, but he said it mockingly.
Chapter 38
Pierce turned to look at Sophia. Her expression didn’t change and she even chuckled, as if she didn’t care about this.
“Mr. Clement, I see someone I know. Sorry, I’ll go to greet them.”
Kylan held Sophia’s hand and walked past Pierce in another direction.
Pierce was somewhat regretful. Why did he give her a perfect wedding?
Sophia swept the hall and found the person she wanted to see. She smiled happily.
She let go of Kylan’s hand and said in a low voice.
“Kylan, I want to go to the restroom.”
Kylan nodded.
Sophia turned around and went in another direction. Then, she saw Ava being surrounded by people.
Ava dressed up decently and smiled. When she saw Sophia walking toward her, Ava’s smile froze.
Then, her eyes were filled with disgust and disdain.
It seemed that Ava didn’t want to see Sophia at all.
Sophia kept smiling and walked to the restroom.
When she walked out, she saw Ava standing in the corridor.
Ava put on a long face, rolled her eyes, and screamed.
“How can you come here today, Sophia? Do you still love Pierce and
Chapter 3
want to mess around my grandson’s banquet?
“Let me tell you. Luke is a member of the Clement family and he’ll be the inheritor of the Clement family.
“You don’t even think about having any relationships with the Clement family. Just get out!”
Sophia smiled, stepped forward, and raised her eyebrows.
“Mrs. Clement, I don’t want to stir things up. I’m here to congratulate you that you’ll have an inheritor of the Clement family.”
Sophia looked around and asked casually.
“Where’s Mr. Luke’s mother, Ms. Wilson? I haven’t said congratulations to her today.”
Ava asked Emelia to stay in the breakroom. Ava thought Emelia didn’t

need to show up today.
If it wasn’t that Pierce agreed that Emelia came here today, Ava would not allow her to appear.
Ava snorted, “Humph, you don’t have to pretend. If you know what’s good for you, just leave it here. Don’t you see the guests here today? Who do you think you are? You’re not worthy of being invited.”
Sophia raised her eyebrows with a teasing smile.
“Mrs. Clement, if you are unhappy to see me, I’m glad to be here.”
Then, Sophia ignored Ava’s gloomy expression and walked past her.
In the past three years, Sophia suffered a lot because of Ava. However, in order to keep her marriage, she endured it.
Now, she could resist without hesitation. She would not stand it anymore.
Chapter 38
After she entered the hall, Sophia made a sign to a waiter. No one noticed them.
Not long after, someone sent a file to Ava secretly…
