Chapter 38 Chad’s Advice 

The next evening. 

Derick went to pick Sophia up early. 

Sophia came downstairs in a simple suit. She looked brisk and yet attractive. With her elaborate make–up, she became even more enthralled. No one could look away from her clear, luminous eyes. 

The restaurant they were headed to would only entertain specific customers. It was situated in a remote but excellent situation. 

It was an excellent place for a date. 

When Derick handed Sophia the roses he had prepared in advance, the latter gave a smile and took them. 

She said, “Mr. Woodward, you don’t need to…” 

“Thank you for dinner, Ms. Cruise. It would be my pleasure to send you roses.” 

Sophia didn’t know what to answer. 

Fortunately, Derick was talkative. She didn’t need to worry about being awkward during the meal. 

As he and Sophia chatted, the atmosphere gradually relaxed between them. 

However, for someone else, the scene was unpleasant to see. 

Sitting by the window on the second floor, Pierce fixed his eyes on

Chapter 38 Chad’s Advice 

Sophia and Derick, his face extremely gloomy. 

A mass of flowers surrounded the table where Sophia and Derek sat. They appeared to be sitting on a swing with wooden vines on it wrapped in greenery and flowers. 

As the light was dim, others could only see their faint outlines. A vague romantic air emanated from around them. 

Sophia and Derick sat opposite each other. The light reflected and glistened in their eyes. 

The two were steeped in a sweet atmosphere. 

Chad, who sat opposite Pierce, couldn’t help letting out a sigh of admiration. 

“How beautiful Sophia is! She and that man seem like a real match.” 

Chad could be considered a fan of Sophia and thought that she was great in many ways. 

Pierce, who sat opposite him, shot daggers at him. 

Then, Pierce gave a snort through his gritted teeth. 

“She dates a man who looks like me. Isn’t it because she still loves 

me?” 

Pierce was sure that Sophia was still in love with him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t date such a substitute. 

She clearly couldn’t forget him and move on. 

Chad frowned and stuck his head out to get a closer look at Derick. 

“Do you look alike? That man seems much gentler than you!”

As soon as he finished his words, Pierce looked sullen. 

“Do you think so?” 

Chad noticed Pierce’s anger. 

He corrected himself, “That man is nothing like you. Pierce, you and Sophia have divorced, haven’t you? Why do you care about who she dates?” 

Pierce replied with a serious face, “She is mine. I of course need to care about that.” 

Chad found his words strange. 

With his brows knotted, he asked, “I saw the scandal… Well, I saw something on the Internet about you and Emelia. I thought you were with her now. Looks like I was wrong. Do you regret divorcing Sophia?” 

Pierce fell silent. 

Was he regretful? 

He was probably a little regretful. However, guilt over her and their unborn baby overwhelmed his remorse. 

What he wanted to do the most was to make it up to her. 

Chad, in his excitement, began to give him advice on how to be together with Sophia again. 

“Pierce, why don’t you go after her? You should be gentle and say more sweet things to her. No woman can resist.” 

With his brows knitted, Pierce sank in thought.

Should he be gentle? 

Should he sweet–talk her? 

Wasn’t that what a man to play around would do? 

He didn’t think what Chad had said was a good idea. 

Chad cast a glance at Pierce, whose face grew gloomier and gloomier as he glared downstairs at Sophia and Derick. 

It looked like Pierce had tried his best to stifle his anger. 

Chad wondered if he had underestimated Pierce’s affection for Sophia. 

He cleared his throat. 

Then, he tried to soothe Pierce. “Calm down. Sophia is just on a date. Besides, you have divorced her, haven’t you? Don’t get angry so easily… 

Before he could finish speaking, Pierce stood up, his face darkening. 

He said coldly, “You know nothing about our relationship. Can’t you see how much the guy she’s dating looks like me? I’m sure she still loves me. Don’t say that again!” 

With that, Pierce turned around and went downstairs in a domineering 

manner. 

When Sophia mentioned Eagle Entertainment’s projects, Derick seemed interested. 

The surrounding lights were orange and shiny, bringing out the beautiful sight of Sophia and Derek sitting together. 

Pierce, leaning against the wall nearby, squinted for a few seconds.

Chapter 39 Pierce’s Warning 

Pierce cast a glance at Derick and Sophia. Derick wore a serious face, and no one could tell his inner thoughts. 

Unlike Derick, Sophia was obviously shocked by Pierce’s sudden 

appearance. However, she soon put on a grim face and looked away from Pierce. 

Pierce’s heart sank at her reaction. He took a deep breath, bent his fingers slightly, and drew out the chair by their table. 

He asked politely, “Do you mind if I sit with you?” 

Derick and Sophia replied at the same time, “Can you sit somewhere else?” 

There was a deadly silence for an instant. 

Pierce squinted. With sharper eyes, he sat on the chair between Derick and Sophia in an imperious air. The smell on him, which was faint mint smoke, greeted Derick and Sophia. 

His sudden intervention spoiled the atmosphere. 

However, he didn’t seem apologetic at all. Instead, he curled his lips 

1. up. 

His face turned gloomier as he glanced at the roses on the table. He then stared at Sophia. 

He asked, “I have more details about the Brightmarble Project to negotiate with you. How about we go somewhere else?”

Chapter 39 Pierce’s Waming 

Pierce sounded cold, but he had actually tried his best to be gentle. 

Sophia pursed her lips and looked up at him. 

She said flatly, “I’m not available today. Let’s take a rain check.” 

She sipped from her glass and tried to hide her fractious mood. 

She wondered, “What happened to Pierce? Why did he come before me so often after our divorce? Can’t he just stay away from me like he used to?” 

Pierce could barely keep his composure after being rejected again. 

His chest no longer heaved violently after his efforts to compose himself. 

After that, he chuckled and said, “Well, your offer is good. After all, someone else is here now. Let’s talk alone another day.” 

He waved his hand in a casual way to a waiter. 

“We need another knife and fork here.” 

Pierce thought, “Sophia, you want me to leave you and that man here alone? 

“No way!” 

Sophia stared at him with her eyes wide open. She didn’t expect him to be this cheeky. 

She had no way but to stand up and decided to leave. 

She smiled at Derick, “Mr. Woodward, let’s call it a day. I’m a little tired and want to go home now.”

Derick rose with a smile. 

He replied, “So do I. How about I drive you home?” 

“I’ll drive you home.” 

Coincidentally, Pierce said almost the same words in a deep voice at the same time. 

Not a sound was heard for an instant. 

Pierce shot daggers at Derick. 

Ignoring him, Sophia took up her bag and said to Derick with a calm. face. 

“Mr. Woodward, sorry to trouble you. Can you drive me home?” 

The latter nodded with a smile. 

“It’s my pleasure.” 

As Sophia descended the stairs, she failed to notice a protruding piece of wood at her feet. She had no sooner stepped on it than she slipped, and a sharp pain shot through her ankle. 

Before she could regain her balance, she was supported from behind at the waist. She banged against a man’s hard chest, and the faint smell of tobacco greeted her. 

“Ms. Cruise, does your food hurt?” 

When there was still some distance between Derick and Sophia, he noticed Pierce crouching in front of her and examining her ankle injury. 

Derick’s face clouded.

Sophia felt uneasy when Pierce, who was crouching in front of her, touched her ankle. She wanted to withdraw her ankle. Yet when she moved it, a sharp pain hit her. 

Pierce clutched her ankle and looked up at her. Even in such a position, he still looked commanding. 

“You have sprained your ankle and need to see a doctor.” 

Sophia frowned and stepped back in pain. 

“No need. I can apply some medicine when I get home.” 

To her surprise, Pierce overlooked her refusal. He threw his arm around her waist and picked her up directly. 

Sophia’s struggles were of no avail, as Pierce took her in his arms tightly and strode out. 

“Pierce, put me down…” 

Pierce said in a serious voice. 

“Don’t move.” 

There was a hint of warning in his voice. After putting her in his car, he slammed the door shut. 

When he turned to Derick, he no longer concealed his true feelings. He wore an indifferent expression and had hostility in his eyes. 

He said, “Mr. Woodward, I will take her to the hospital.” 

Derick, too, ceased his affectation of politeness. 

He squinted at Pierce. “I brought her here. I should take her home.”

Neither wanted to back down. They looked fiercely at each other. 

Pierce took a step forward to Derick with a severe face. 

“Mr. Woodward, you’d better stay away from Sophia. She’s not someone you can approach. Do you understand? You are not that powerful in this country.” 

Pierce was so arrogant and domineering. He made no secret of his hostility to Derick. 

Derick narrowed his eyes. Just as he was about to say something, Pierce turned around and got into the car. 

He could hardly stay in the same place as Derick for another second. 

His mind was filled with anger. What was worse, an unknown urge came over him uncontrollably. 

Had he continued to talk to Derrick, he would probably have been unable to restrain himself from beating Derrick. 

The car sped away as the driver pressed the accelerator. 

Sophia sat far away from Pierce. Two more people could sit between them. 

Pierce rubbed the center of his forehead in an effort to stifle his anger. 

He ordered the driver, “Go to the hospital.” 

Sophia gave her a cold look. 

Then, she said in a flat voice, “Mr. Clement, thank you for taking me to the hospital, but you won’t have to next time.” 

Her gratitude didn’t sound sincere.

Pierce pursed his lips, the veins bulging on his forehead. 

Why did she estrange him like this? 

He asked, “Do you prefer Derick to do so?” 

“He’s more suitable, isn’t he?” Sophia was straightforward. 

She’d rather ride in Derick’s car than Pierce’s. 

She didn’t want anything to do with Pierce anymore. 

With a gloomy face, Pierce snorted. He had mixed feelings in his eyes and blurted out what he was thinking. 

“Suitable? Not at all! Even if you want to be with another man, you should find someone who doesn’t look like me. 

“Haven’t you noticed how much he looks like me? I know you still love me, so you date such a substitute.”
