Chapter 131: He Didn’t Recognize Her
Pierce slowly turned his head, his cold, indifferent gaze fixed on her, his face devoid of any expression.
Very quickly.
The bodyguard forcefully dragged Camille and Annie in front of
Pierce.
Camille’s legs had gone weak, she had to drag Annie to prevent herself from falling.
She looked up, the surging sea was dark and deep, the wind brought a salty and fishy cold air.
She was covered in goosebumps and shivered slightly.
Pierce’s dark eyes were cold and his voice was icy:
“Acquainted?”
He stared at Camille’s face, not missing a single expression.
Camille looked at the person on the ground who was swollen like a pig’s head and quickly shook her
head.
She was very flustered.
Annie stepped forward, gently took Camille’s hand, and said with a smile:
“It was the first time Camille had seen something like this, she was terrified. Honestly,, it was really
scary. Who was this person? What had they done?”

She indeed did not know.
Just seeing him in that terrible state for a moment, I was scared into a stress response.
“Bro, I really didn’t know him.”
Pierce’s bodyguard handed over a cigar, which he took with a casual, indifferent gesture, playing with
it.
The night was pitch black.
The lights on the deck shone as bright as daylight, yet they made the darkness in the corners even
more intense.
The light and shadow transitioned from dark to bright, landing on Pierce’s stern face.
Half of his body was shrouded in darkness, making it impossible to see the turbulent, suppressed
emotions in his eyes.
Also stretched his figure long.
He lifted his foot, his aura cold and stern, and walked up to Daniel, squatting down halfway. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
In the moment he approached.
Daniel’s body shuddered violently.
The next second.
Pierce’s large hand had clamped onto Daniel’s neck, giving it a harsh
squeeze.
The light illuminated his cold, hard contours and restrained eyes,

creating a stark contrast.
Daniel’s face turned purple instantly, his eyes bulging with bloodshot.
He knew what way was the simplest, yet the most tormenting.
The surrounding bodyguards remained calm.
But Annie’s complexion subtly changed.
Camille was so scared that her heart trembled, she held her chest and breathed heavily.
Daniel didn’t even have the strength to struggle, he could only shake his head strenuously:
“I didn’t know her, I didn’t know her…”
He pointed at Camille, not daring to lie.
Pierce really could have taken his life.
On this sea, on this cruise ship, his life was worth too little.
Camille’s face turned slightly pale as she looked at Pierce.
He didn’t trust her anymore.
Pierce let go.
Daniel clutched his throat and began to cough violently, curling up in pain on the ground like a helpless
maggot.
Pierce’s eyes were dark and his voice was indifferent:
“And the other one?”
He was referring to Annie.

Annie’s figure stiffened slightly, her face suddenly tensed up.
She was holding Camille’s hand, which was somewhat sweaty.
She stared intently at the person on the ground, her heart sinking.
Before Daniel could speak, Annie took a step forward, opening her mouth with a somewhat displeased
expression:
“Mr. Clement, I didn’t forget the purpose of my visit tonight, to take care of your mother. Even if you
made me feel uncomfortable many times, I endured it.‘
“I didn’t leave my aunt’s side at all tonight, you can ask her.”
Pierce seemed not to hear, lightly touching Daniel’s wound with the cigar in his hand, causing Daniel to
immediately flinch in pain.
“No, I didn’t know, I really didn’t know!”
His voice was filled with tremors and panic.
Pierce gave Annie a meaningful glance.
Annie remained calm.
Camille, however, looked at Annie in surprise.
It seemed like he wanted to say something, but then he held it back.
The rescue boat on the sea surface kept coming back and forth again and again.
Pierce’s agitation was also visibly rising.
The bodyguard came over to report time and time again:
“Mr. Clement, no.‘
Chapter 131 He Didn’t Recognize Mer
“Mr. Clement, it wasn’t found.”
“Mr. Clement, the scope has been expanded, but there’s no sign of any activity.”

The night was already inconvenient, let alone at sea.
They were just gambling on luck.
Perhaps everyone knew in their hearts, Sophia couldn’t survive.
It might have been swept away by the giant undersea waves to a distance of several thousand
kilometers by now.
Could have become the belly contents of some ferocious fish species again.
Pierce was thinking when a sharp pain surged in his chest, causing him to double over, his face turning
pale. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
His jawline was clear and smooth, and at that moment, he felt a movement in his throat, his facial
expression revealing some unbearable pain.
He abruptly stood up and kicked Daniel hard.
Daniel was convulsing in pain.
A hint of crimson tainted Pierce’s eyes as he stared at him intently, seemingly struggling to control his
emotions. His voice was harsh and cold:
“Then who do you say it was, who did it?”

Chapter 131 He Didit Repognize Her
The surveillance was already fixed, she was drugged by you, dragged into the room by you! You tell
me, why would a person disappear, why?”
His last words were almost spoken through gritted teeth.
At that moment, the blood in his body began to flow backwards.
He wished he could have killed Daniel!
He went from ignoring Sophia at first to feeling guilty.
After the divorce, he felt that it was guilt that made him cherish his feelings for Sophia.
But on this night, he sensed danger and unease.
Until the facts were settled, he had lost Sophia.
How could he accept this fact?
That night, he had meticulously prepared a surprise for Sophia, hoping to make up for past regrets.
But his gift was not delivered, she didn’t catch a glimpse of his fireworks.
Once again, it was because of herself that Sophia encountered danger.
Was she very scared when she encountered danger?
When she was alone, did she regret agreeing to let him board the cruise ship?
Why didn’t he take good care of her?
What was she thinking in the last moment?

Chapter 131: He Didn’t Recognize Her
Why hesitate unconsciously due to ridiculous pride?
Every time he thought of these things, it felt as if a knife was stabbing Pierce’s heart, each breath he
took was so painful that he couldn’t speak.
He seemed like a man living in the fog, who had glimpsed a clear light.
That was his own intention.
He clearly fell for Sophia, why wouldn’t he admit it?
Why did he keep guessing about her love for him, instead of loving her unconditionally?
Pain spread throughout his body, for the first time, he felt fear and anxiety.
This pitch–black sea swallowed his soul.
He owed her and hadn’t paid back a bit, but he had no chance anymore!
After yelling, Pierce kicked at Daniel as if he had lost control.
Daniel didn’t even have the strength to scream. He didn’t know how many ribs he had broken. His face
was so pale from the pain and so swollen that his original appearance was unrecognizable.
After a while, it stopped.
Pierce looked at the silent Daniel and let out a cold laugh.
“Throw it down, feed the fish.”
His voice was rough and indifferent.
He was just that kind of person. Without ruthless methods and a strong mentality, how could he have
established himself in Aberdyfi?

Chapter 131: He Didn’t Recognize Her
Sophia was nowhere to be found, yet the person who wouldn’t let her fall into danger had safely
returned to shore.
Drop dead!
The bodyguard beside him didn’t hesitate at all, he walked towards the railing of the deck, carrying
Daniel’s body.
They lifted Daniel’s body high, intending to throw him down directly…
