Ava spoke with a cold and dominant tone:
“Stop, since you’re leaving, take Ms. Stapleton with you. She just said she had an urgent matter!”
Ava gave Annie a signal, and Annie immediately understood, happily walking over.
Pierce furrowed his brow, glancing at his watch:
“There’s no time, let the driver take it!”
Annie immediately stepped forward and spoke:
“Mr. Clement, please drop me off at the entrance of the Clement Group. The place I need to go is nearby.”
Camille also ran over there:
“Brother, I also need to go nearby, take me with you!”
Pierce gave her a blank look:
“Let’s go.”
Annie gratefully glanced at Camille, and Camille blinked.
In just a few interactions, Camille had already felt that Annie was friendlier and more approachable than Sophia.
The driver waited outside, and Pierce got into the back seat.
Camille took the co–pilot seat to create an opportunity for Annie.

The interior of the car was exquisitely and meticulously arranged, its scent similar to that of Pierce.
Annie was a bit nervous, trying to find a topic to talk about with a smile.
“Was Mr. Clement’s injury alright? Aunt knew you were hurt and she was terribly worried. You should have spent more time at home with her!”
Pierce feigned sleep with his eyes closed, his face stern and gloomy, showing no intention of making conversation.
The atmosphere inside the car was deadly cold.
Camille kindly helped her out, saying with a smile:
“No wonder Mom likes Sister Annie and even suggested you become her daughter–in–law. I think you might as well take care of my brother, so he won’t get hurt.”
Teased by her, Annie shyly lowered her head.
Pierce slowly opened his eyes, his deep, cold gaze carrying a hint of warning as he looked at Camille.
Camille couldn’t help but stick out her tongue:
“It was just a joke, don’t be mad, brother!”
Annie clenched her fingers, her eyes twinkling slightly, seemingly casually changing the subject:
Before going to the Clement family, I went to the mall to buy gifts. I happened to see Ms. Cruise, she was having hot pot with Derick. They were talking and laughing, even feeding each other, it seemed like they were more than just ordinary friends.

“Camille, have you been keeping an eye on Derick? Were they dating?”
Camille’s face instantly turned very unpleasant:
“Of course not, they were just business partners.”
Her tone was icy, and anger flashed in her eyes instantly.
Annie smiled gently and began to speak:
“Ms. Cruise seemed to have no sense of propriety when she was with men. Last time she went out to do business with Kylan, she was
practically hanging all over him. Yet, men seemed to fall for it. I really don’t know what kind of magic she has?”
Camille’s face looked even worse, gritting her teeth in displeasure.
Annie looked at Pierce’s expressionless profile, her soft voice seemingly deliberately leading in a certain direction:
“Mr. Clement, you’ve known her for so long, you should have seen through her character a long time ago, right?”
Pierce’s eyes, cold and indifferent, narrowed slightly, like a frigid pool. in winter, chilling enough to make one shiver.
“I didn’t think it was classy of you to set up my wife, stop the car!”
The driver immediately stopped the car.
Pierce’s face was cold and gloomy, his eyes and brows covered with a layer of chilliness:
“Go down.”
He looked at Annie, commanding.

Annie’s face turned pale, her body stiffened for a moment.
“Mr. Clement,” I said, “everything I’ve told you is true. Don’t be deceived by that Sophia, she has ulterior motives towards you…”
“I don’t want to say it a second time, get out!”
Pierce’s aura instantly turned icy, and his voice was incredibly cold.
He didn’t have any extra words, a single “Get out” was enough to strip someone of all their dignity.
Being in the same car with this kind of woman was simply unbearable.
Camille slightly furrowed her brows, wanting to speak up for Annie, but before she could even open her mouth, she heard Pierce warning her:
“If you wanted to roll with me, feel free.”
He would not waver in his decision for anyone.
Camille instantly shut her mouth.
Annie clutched her clothes tightly, her face pale, her pitiful appearance somewhat resembling Emelia.
But Emelia had never been so embarrassed before.
Her face was a mix of white and red, and her eyes were rimmed with red.
“Mr. Clement was angry with me? I didn’t wrong her, you two are divorced, can’t I speak a few truths? If you’re upset, I’ll apologize.”
Being thrown out of the car halfway by the man I liked was utterly embarrassing.

Pierce’s gaze was icy cold, he slightly raised his eyes, his voice was extremely indifferent:
The person you should apologize to is not me, what do you think you are, daring to slander her without knowing the truth?
“You were malicious and of low quality, not even understanding the most basic manners. Don’t go to the Clement family in the future, get out!”
His words undoubtedly shattered Annie’s dream.
Annie looked at him with a shocked gaze, her body stiff.
Didn’t they all say that Sophia had married Pierce with ulterior motives, and that Pierce had long been dissatisfied?
Why did Pierce react so strongly when she revealed the truth!
She couldn’t help but shiver slightly all over.
Pierce shed his warm and calm demeanor, as if tearing off a sinister mask, every word and sentence was merciless, like a burning slap on her face.
The driver sensibly got out of the car to open the door for her.
“Ms. Stapleton, could you please?”
Annie could no longer hold on, covering her face in grievance and anger, she got out of the car and ran away.
The driver got back in the car and started it up again.
Camille was somewhat uneasy:
“Bro, Sister Annie just left like that, she won’t encounter any danger,

will she?”
Pierce’s eyes and eyebrows were dark and cold.
“You were worried that she would go down too, weren’t you!”
Camille pursed her lips, she thought Annie was not wrong either.
Sophia was indeed playing both sides, being ambiguous with Pierce and also getting very close to Derick.
However, she didn’t want to fall out with Pierce because of Annie..
“Bro, I had made plans to go shopping with someone!”
Pierce gave her a silent glance, then continued to feign sleep.
He suddenly remembered that he had been left halfway by Sophia.
It seemed that she was really angry at that time.
Otherwise, how could she be so heartless?
But even so, he did not allow anyone to say a single bad word about her.
Those who didn’t understand Sophia, knew jack shit!
“Dream” Bar.
The band was specifically hired for a residency, and because they were so popular, even those standing in the corners of the bar were
enthusiastically swaying their hips.
As soon as Sophia and Sandra met, they completely forgot their troubles.
Sandra pulled her to dance.

Sophia was initially a bit reserved, but once she got on stage and the music changed, it was as if every cell in her body started to move.
She had only followed Cecilia and learned dance for a few days before, lost interest and gave it up, but the foundation was still there.
She herself had a curvaceous figure, slender and charming, with bright and bold eyes and eyebrows, delicate features, and when she danced, she was even more dazzling and captivating.
She was wearing a dark green sundress, moving like a soft, floating fish in the sea. Her every frown and smile were enchanting and seductive, always giving off a pull that was both pure and desirous.
Under the flickering light of brightness and darkness, it was dazzlingly colorful, with the rhythm fluctuating up and down, and the fervent drumming noise seemed to make it impossible for people to look away.
