Chapter 194 189: Carrying it for Her
Pierce said, lowering his gaze to Sophia, the chill in his eyes faded, replaced by a hint of warmth:
“Let’s go, I had something to tell you.”
He dragged Sophia by the arm and left, fearing that she might run off again in a fit of caprice.
Sophia didn’t struggle either, after all, her goal had been achieved, and she had left him hanging long enough.
Any more would have seemed pretentious.
Sandra glanced at Gillian and Camille, gave a soft laugh, and walked out.
Gillian’s face was burning, as if she had been slapped by
someone.
She hastily went to see Camille.
Camille wasn’t much better than her either.
Although Pierce had finally left saying she would pay the bill,

those clothes still didn’t end up in her hands.
Camille couldn’t believe that Pierce would be unqualified to win.
The luxury brand gifts that the Clement Group sent to their clients annually were enough to make them the most prestigious members.
It was just that Pierce was unwilling to stand up for her.
Camille shivered inwardly, wondering if Sophia had said something to Pierce.
She panicked for a moment.
Felt impossible again.
If it had really been said, Pierce would have come to question her long ago.
“Camille, how could Sophia be with Pierce again? Is this fair to Annie?”
Gillian was grinding her teeth in anger, not daring to vent in front of Pierce, she could only express her dissatisfaction to Camille.
Camille’s eyes darkened as she thought of Annie, her mood

becoming even worse.
She tugged at the corner of her mouth, glanced at Gillian, and said expressionlessly:
“Mrs. Stapleton, if you feel unsatisfied, go talk to my brother. Talking to me is useless.”
She said, and walked straight out.
Gillian stood there, dazed as if everything around her had come to a standstill.
Sophia and Pierce left, Sandra approached, taking Sophia’s arm:
“What’s going on, something seems off about your relationship?”
Sophia raised an eyebrow, “What’s wrong? There are plenty of people chasing after me.”
Sandra caught a bit of the meaning and laughed.
Arrived at the door.
Watched the shop assistant loading the gift boxes and bags
into the car.

Sophia walked over, took a glance, picked out the one that Camille had worn, and handed the rest to Sandra.
“They’ve all been worn, so don’t keep them. Take the rest and give them away!”
She casually gave it away as if it was a worthless trinket.
Sandra frowned, “What should we do, should I go and order another one?”
Sophia laughed, “You don’t need to worry, I will handle the contact.”
She casually tossed the clothes that Camille had worn next to the roadside trash can.
Whoever was interested could take it at any time.
They couldn’t possibly wear them again, feeling uncomfortable.
“Alright, I’ll leave first then. Look for me after you’re done with your work.”
Sandra said, glancing at Pierce, then walked away with a light laugh.
The gift box was taken away by Sandra, and Pierce didn’t even

bat an eyelid.
He followed behind in dignified silence, listening to their words, his expression calm and indifferent.
The driver opened the car door in front.
Sophia bent down to enter.
Pierce closely followed.
When Camille came out, she saw the clothes she had worn thrown next to the trash can.
In an instant, her face turned extremely unsightly.
Felt an unprecedented sense of shame and anger.
Sophia, if she could die once, why couldn’t she die a second time?
Her body was tense, and in a fit of anger, a sudden sharp pain shot through her chest.
The next second.
The person fainted and fell to the ground, unconscious.

On the bus.
Pierce looked at her with an inscrutable expression, his gaze somewhat oppressive, his voice clear and steady:
“Did Camille offend you?”
It wasn’t that he couldn’t see it, the war of words among women was much more obvious than that among men.
Sophia raised an eyebrow, casually watching the scenery. passing by outside the window:
“Yeah, your sister was a person who seemed soft but was actually ruthless.”
Pierce was silent for a moment.
His hand suddenly grasped Sophia’s soft one, his voice carrying a deliberate gentleness:
“Then I apologize on her behalf. You are magnanimous, don’t hold it against her. Whatever mistakes she made, I’ll take the blame for her.”
After all, Camille was his sister and had been sick for many years, so it was unlikely that she would cause any serious

trouble.
It was nothing more than some minor squabbles and fusses.
Sophia, however, stared at him for a few moments before letting out a cold laugh:
“I’m afraid you couldn’t handle it.
Pierce furrowed his brow, he loosened his collar, lazily leaning back, and reached out to squeeze her hand:
“Oh? Then tell me, how did she offend you?”
His voice was low and hoarse, nonchalant, as if he was just picking a topic at random.
Sophia laughed, but did not continue speaking.
She took the initiative, reaching out to grab his arm, climbing onto his shoulders, and replacing her expression with a radiant and charming smile.
“Why didn’t you come to find me?”
Pierce’s face stiffened slightly, subtly glancing at her.
Chapter 104 109 Carrying it for
A sudden surge of both anger and helplessness entwined around my chest.
“Didn’t I look for you? You blocked me and refused to communicate, how was I supposed to find you?”
If she hadn’t taken the initiative to find him, he would still be sulking in the office trying to find a solution!
Sophia detected his petulance, akin to a sulky child, and suddenly laughed, but immediately feigned an air of indifference:
“That day, I waited in the cold wind for nearly an hour. If you wanted to communicate, you should have also stood under my building and endured the cold wind for an hour. Otherwise, where is your sincerity?”
Pierce gave her a dark, secretive glance.
So simple and childish?
However, a hint of sweetness suddenly touched the heart.
He chuckled, his voice calm and somewhat distracted:
“Alright, I remembered.”
19 MA
When there were no conflicts, dating was just the icing on the cake.
This sweet, coquettish touch, the feeling of mutual exploration, made him feel as if he was basking in the spring breeze.
Two people were dining together in a private kitchen.
It’s the one that Pierce had made plans to go to last time but didn’t.
Inside was an antique quadrangle courtyard. Upon entering, the
or was winding, and under the bluestone eaves hung red
lanterns, exuding a warm and gentle atmosphere.
The shadows of the lamps overlapped, and a subtle fragrance wafted in the air.
The style and tone, had a charm all their own.
Sophia sat at the dining table, listening to the sound of trickling water outside. The atmosphere was peculiar, capable of immersing one in the moment, in the eyes of someone right in front of them.
She felt someone’s deep gaze on her, finally unable to resist looking up at him, her voice gentle and clear:
Chapter 194 189 Carrying it for Her
“Why were you always looking at me?”
Pierce paused slightly, pursing his lips:
“Tell me about your next plan?”
Sophia’s heart sank, her gaze suddenly becoming sharp.
Paused for a moment.
Pierce slightly furrowed his brows, “I know you wouldn’t give up on the Codepath Tech project so easily. What’s your next move? Are you just going to drag it out?”
What he was talking about was the Codepath Tech project.
Sophia slowly let go of a huge stone–like weight in her heart.
She had just lost her composure, thinking that Pierce had figured something out.
The corner of her mouth curled up slightly, and she said mysteriously:
“Of course it won’t take too long, Mr. Clement. Why don’t you tell me, what will it take for you to spill the beans?”
“Given our current relationship, co exception?”
Pierce’s eyes deepened slightly.
He laughed, a hint of roguishness
“Our relationship, was superficial
Not deep enough.
