Chapter 61: Did You Want It?
Sophia’s smile faltered as she walked over. Pierce, holding a document from his side, handed it to her:
“This was Sparkle’s contract, didn’t you always want it? Get in the car.”
He came prepared.
Sophia stood in front of the car door without moving, just hooking the corner of her lips.
Just as Pierce was about to get out of the car to open the door for her, Sophia swiftly pushed the slightly ajar door he had opened and shut it heavily again.
In less than three seconds, Pierce was looking at her with dark eyes.
Sophia leaned on the car window with one hand, her body slightly leaning forward. Her bright and delicate features instantly came close to him, he could even smell the faint perfume from her body.
Their closeness was intimate and ambiguous.
This posture seemed more like she was about to lean over… to kiss him.
Pierce’s expression tightened, his face taut, his Adam’s apple moved slightly.
In that instant, he felt his heart pounding intensely.
But the next second.
Sophia’s cold voice reached my ears:

Chapter 61 Dirt You Want
“Your collaboration was the one I sabotaged, the contract was the one I disdained to accept. And you actually had the audacity to negotiate terms with me using a worthless contract?”
“Pierce, did you think everyone else was a fool?”
If it hadn’t been for Matthew’s lover presenting crucial evidence, which led to flaws in the project, how could Pierce possibly have given up the collaboration that was already within his grasp?
Taking over a project that had already been abandoned, which made her feel grateful, Pierce’s scheme was really brilliant!
Unfortunately, she figured it out.
Pierce’s gaze silently lingered on her for a few seconds, his thin lips pursed, his chest rising and falling as if suppressing his emotions, his teeth almost grinding to a point.
“Take a look at the contract, I had already made changes to the content!”
A hint of moisture seemed to have flashed across his narrow eyes.
Sophia still thought that he had cried out of grievance.
Hehe, he must have been angry!
Sophia didn’t even bother to reach out and take it. She just glanced at him nonchalantly, turned her face away, and spoke with a hint of impatience:
“Get moving, stop being an eyesore here!”
She casually brushed her hair, then turned and left elegantly as if nothing had happened.
Chapter 61: Did You Want?
Pierce sat in the car, without even a chance to get out, clutching the contract tightly in his hand, his whole body tense.
The collaboration fell through. He knew from the start that it was her doing, and he had been cooperating all along, even adjusting the project. Yet, she didn’t even care about the collaboration that was handed to her on a silver platter!
So infuriating! After the divorce, Sophia always managed to easily stir up her own emotions!
But he was utterly defenseless!
Pierce was so angry that he didn’t say a word.
The atmosphere inside the car was chillingly tense.
The driver in front glanced at his phone several times, unable to resist speaking up:
“Mr. Clement, Ms. Wilson called several times looking for you, perhaps you should go to the hospital to see her?”
Pierce lifted his eyelids, his pupils dark and indifferent, revealing a hint of coldness.
The driver instantly shut up.
The car finally left, heading to the Clement Group.
Nolan was waiting in the office, as if he knew he would return empty- handed.
“Pierce, that woman is just ungrateful, she’s manipulating you right now. She clearly messed up your cooperation, why on earth are you so eager to approach her?”
Chapter &1 Did You Want it?
Pierce’s face was cold and indifferent, he glanced dismissively at the talkative Nolan, ignoring him.
Nolan paused, touching his nose:
“Alright, I’ve meddled again. I’ve done everything you asked me to do. I’m leaving now.”
Pierce took out a contract from the drawer and threw it on the table:
“That piece of land up north, didn’t the Morrison family always want it?”
He would not owe others.
Nolan’s eyes lit up, Hector had an accident, this scandal was a blow to the Morrison family.
In addition, Pierce had been indifferent to the Morrison family for some time, and many people felt that the Morrison family was losing power, adding insult to injury by being opportunistic.
The Morrison family began to face various crises.
Fortunately, a few days ago, Pierce suddenly had someone contact him on behalf of Nolan, and bought the Sparkle Project from Matthew at a low price, reshuffling the deck.
He reconnected with Pierce, an opportunity that was rare.
So, seeing the “reward” that Pierce had taken out, Nolan suddenly felt a bit emotional.
The feeling of being marginalized in this circle was really uncomfortable!
“Thanks.”
At Did You Want t
He didn’t stand on ceremony either, having long since put Sophia out of his mind, he left with the contract.
Sophia gave up on the Sparkle Project, but unexpectedly got another project through Derick.
Before the project signing cocktail party, Sophia rarely went shopping with Sandra.
The bodyguards who were shopping couldn’t handle it anymore, they put the stuff into the car, and the two of them went to the brand design
center.
The designer recognized Sophia and immediately approached her:
“Ms. Cruise, the gown you ordered last time has been air shipped from Fineland. Would you like to try it on?”
Sophia raised an eyebrow, nodding:
“Alright then.”
Sandra also enthusiastically went to pick out clothes, while waiting for Sophia to come out.
Because it was custom–made, hand–sewn by a master craftsman abroad, the size was exceptionally fitting.
She wore a long dress that faded to purple, just reaching her ankles. The pearlescent sheen on the hem of her dress was particularly dazzling as she moved, like dewdrops falling, outlining her slender and graceful waist, exceptionally stunning.
As soon as Sophia came out, everyone’s gaze focused on her.
It had to be said, her body proportions tended towards perfection, and her face was even more brightly beautiful and delicately generous.
Sandra touched her chin in admiration, nodding incessantly:
“Sophia, you were so beautiful. If you had worn this to the party, those men’s eyeballs would have dropped to the floor!”
Sophia couldn’t help but glare at her.
Before he could speak, a cold laugh came from behind,
Ava walked over with a sarcastic tone:
“Sure enough, some people wear clothes just to attract men, I really don’t know where their confidence comes from?”
Emelia, with a hint of mockery in her eyes, was arm in arm with Ava, stirring up trouble.
“Auntie, the clothes she was wearing would suit you better. Why don’t you take that one?”
Ava smirked, sitting there high and mighty, pointing at the designer:
“Have her take it off, I want that piece of clothing.”
The designer paused, speaking hesitantly:
“That piece of clothing was a private custom design, specifically designed for Ms. Cruise. Perhaps, madam, you could look at other designs, there are many that would suit you…”
Ava’s face fell, looking very unpleasant.-
The nearby Emelia couldn’t help but speak up:
“Did you think we couldn’t afford it? The lady of the Clement Group couldn’t afford a piece of clothing?”
“She was just putting on airs. Her pockets were empty, yet she was

here pretending to be something she’s not, making a fool of herself.”
Sandra, who was standing aside, couldn’t bear it anymore and looked over, snorting coldly:
“I wondered whose mouth was so foul, turns out it’s a professional mistress with low morals. What, wasn’t stealing men enough for you, now you’re stealing clothes too?”
Emelia’s face was ashen, she gritted her teeth and glared at Sandra, aggrievedly clutching Ava’s arm.
“Auntie, what did I say wrong? That dress clearly suits you better. I just thought that Ms. Cruise shouldn’t be so petty over a piece of clothing with her elders.”
