Chapter 80: Hurting Each Other
The nurse pointed in the direction of Derick and Sophia.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
But when the child in Derick’s arms saw Emelia, he immediately turned his head away, clinging tightly
to Derick’s neck and refusing to
let go.
As soon as Emelia saw her son, she forgot about everything else.
Immediately ran over there.
As soon as I approached, I saw Sophia and Derick, and my face changed instantly.
“Ms. Cruise, did you kidnap my son?”
Sophia laughed softly, speechless, “Does it say on your son’s face that he is your son?”
She felt somewhat uncomfortable deep down.
Just now, she was so fond of this mute child, who turned out to be Emelia’s son.
Fate was playing a joke on her, just like that.
Even when Emelia was bad, everything still went smoothly for her, even her children were very Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
adorable.
But even keeping her own child was a luxury for her.
It was so unfair!

Chapter 50: Hurting Each Other
Hearing Sophia’s rude words, Emelia’s gaze instantly turned sharp, glaring at her.
Then she looked at Derick with a smile, her face changing slightly.
Then, a fake smile instantly returned to his face.
“Give me the child, please?”
She was mistaken, there was even a moment when she felt this person was so familiar.
Derick’s aura and demeanor were not those of an ordinary person, so she naturally didn’t dare to
offend him.
Joshua didn’t want to let go, but Emelia forcefully pulled his hand
away.
The child’s eyes were brimming with tears, but he couldn’t cry out loud, just sobbing silently, which was
heartbreaking to watch.
Emelia finally lost her patience and looked back at the servant:
“Hurry up and come over to carry the young master down!”
The servant hurried over in fear.
Joshua, on the other hand, was not so repulsed by the servant, obediently getting off from Derick’s
body.
Emelia patted Joshua’s head contentedly.
Her face changed as she looked at Sophia, her attitude condescending, her tone far from polite:
“Ms. Cruise, I know you were jealous because I had a son. We settled our past issues, wasn’t there
any need for you to target me anymore?”

Chapter 80 Hurting Each Other
“Joshua was the bloodline of the Clement family, a fact that no one could deny, no matter how much
you tried to manipulate it, it was useless.”
She was referring to the incident where Sophia caused a commotion at Luke’s party last time by using
a paternity test.
Sophia lowered her eyes slightly, letting out a mocking laugh:
“Ms. Wilson, since you have given birth to the bloodline of the Clement family, how come you still can’t
get in the door?”
In other words, the Clement family didn’t even want to acknowledge their own bloodline, let alone you!”
Her words were simply rubbing salt in Emelia’s wounds!
Emelia’s face turned a few shades paler, gritting her teeth in anger.
Derick cast a cold glance at Emelia, then turned his attention to Sophia:
“Shall we go?”
Sophia raised an eyebrow, looking at Emelia, feeling a bit soft–hearted deep down. She glanced at
Luke, who was standing there alone and shrinking back.
“Luke wasn’t your biological son, did you have to treat him like that?”
“Did you know that child abuse is a crime?”
“I disciplined my own child, do I need you to butt in? What, do you think you’re the Virgin Mary?”
Emelia was furious, why on earth was Sophia meddling in her business!

Sophia pursed her lips. a chill emanating from her eyes:
“I was just reminding you, Luke was also a three–year–old child.”
Luke and Joshua were about the same age, but the difference in the way the two children were treated
was evident at first glance.
Joshua was raised in the lap of luxury, with everything being the best.
Luke’s treatment plummeted.
After Sophia finished speaking, she turned to leave, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw a familiar
face.
The female student who was with Nolan, Pamela?
How could she be here?
However, she didn’t show anything and left the hospital directly with Derick.
Whether Emelia went crazy was her own business, and it had nothing to do with Sophia whether Pierce
cared or not.
Sophia naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to meddle in their affairs.
Derick also had a somewhat gloomy and complex expression, his brows and eyes imbued with a
coldness.
Sophia said goodbye to him, then drove back to the company by herself.
Derick stood on the side of the street for a few minutes, then made a
call to Mautiland.
“Mom, was it you who released the information that Pierce found MOMO?”

A calm and elegant woman’s voice came through the phone.
“It was me, you couldn’t keep hiding that child forever. Pierce’s strength is not to be underestimated,
constantly hiding would arouse his suspicion.”
Hung up the phone.
Derick’s expression had returned to its usual cold and profound state.
In the afternoon.
Sophia didn’t know if Emelia had gone to Pierce to complain about Sophia “stealing” the child, but she
received a call from Pierce’s assistant, Kasen.
Because they had previously intersected in business matters, Sophia had kept his phone number.
She saw it was Kasen, so she picked up.
The voice that came through was Pierce’s.
“Sophia, did you run into Emelia at the hospital at noon? She didn’t do anything to you, did she?”
Sophia chuckled lightly, about to hang up the phone, when she thought of the timid Luke.
“Did you come to confront me on her behalf? Or did she say I bullied her again, and you want to stand
up for her?”
Pierce was silent for a few seconds, his tone gentle:
“You knew I didn’t mean that, of course I trusted you, I was just worried that you would feel bad when
you met her.”
Chapter 80 Hurting Each Other
His bad mood would affect him, this was what Pierce was most worried about!
After Chad found out about that one billion thing last time, he looked at him speechlessly for a full five
minutes before shaking his head and saying four words:
“You were beyond help!”
Afterwards, Chad gave him some advice, telling him not to frequently appear in front of Sophia and
annoy her.
“Absence makes the heart grow fonder,” there is truth in this saying.
These past few days, he had been holding back, not showing himself, and desperately trying to take
the opportunity to diminish the thoughts of her deep in his heart.
During this period, his nearly uncontrollable desire to attract a
woman’s attention was simply unbelievable.
Although he felt it was out of a desire to make amends.
But strangely enough, the less I wanted to think about it, the more it preoccupied my mind.
He felt as if he was being controlled by someone with a string, he had no say in how to control it.
It was truly a struggle and a contradiction.
Couldn’t help but make a call using Kasen’s phone.
She blocked herself, yet surprisingly left her assistant Kasen’s unblocked.
Wasn’t it just leaving him a chance!
Chapter Bu Hurting Each Other
Pierce had a faint sense of anticipation deep down in his heart.
During the time when he was not present, was she also struggling with the same contradictions as him,
missing him but too embarrassed to Say it?
Sophia’s voice was faint, distant, and polite:
“Pierce, control your dog. If it bites randomly again the next time I see it, I’m really going to take action.”
Pierce fell silent, his voice deep:
“Were you angry?”
Could it be said, from a side perspective, that she was still jealous?
Sophia chuckled lightly.
He didn’t know who Emelia was.
Dared to even ask!
Sophia, too lazy to respond, spoke up coldly:
“Pierce, you’d better educate Emelia on the law, child abuse is a crime,”
She finished speaking and immediately hung up the phone.
The words were spoken so clearly, if he couldn’t understand, he would be an idiot.
Her feelings for Luke were complicated.
His appearance back then shattered her dreams and left her utterly humiliated.

But she knew, the child was innocent, what did he understand?
It was Pierce who started it all.
