Chapter 2 Slander

How ironic.

“Leave her alone.”

Pierce’s indifferent words seemed to have plunged Sophia into a bottomless abyss covered with ice and snow, bringing her silent agony.

He was heartless.

He thought Sophia took advantage of him.

Sophia was sensible enough to ask for a divorce, and Pierce could finally get rid of marital bonds.

She gave a short, derisive laugh with a hint of desperation and decisiveness in her eyes.

Sophia turned around and strode away without the least hesitation.

She admitted that she liked Pierce, but she had her limits.

She wouldn’t let Pierce wound her pride without resisting.

It wasn’t shameful to get a divorce. Instead, Sophia found it shameful if she helped to cover up the truth that Pierce cheated on her and had an illegitimate son. That was ridiculous!

She would regain her sense of dignity herself.

***

Sophia went back home.

The villa was elaborately decorated with fine furniture. She hoped that Pierce could feel warm as soon as he came back.

At that moment, the huge villa was empty.

When Sophia came to think of it, Pierce just stayed for a day last month and hurriedly left.

But she was so surprised by his short visit that she was at a loss.

Pierce might have been with Emelia and their son for the past three years.

This realization made Sophia shiver in disgust.

She went upstairs to pack her things when she heard the servant knock on the door.

“Mrs. Clement, Devan is here.”

Sophia was stunned for a moment and walked out.

Pierce’s assistant, Devan Reed, brought a suitcase with him. It seemed like he had just disembarked from the plane.

He handed over a jewelry box and a bouquet with a smile.

“Mrs. Clement, these are Mr. Clement’s gifts for your third anniversary.”

Dumbfounded, Sophia looked up at Devan.

She suddenly remembered that she received all the anniversary gifts from Devan.

Pierce was celebrating his illegitimate son’s birthday now.
