Chapter 36 Emotional Rollercoaster
Ava couldn’t help but swing an arm at Emelia.
She slapped Emelia with all her might.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
“Shameless bitch! You seduced other men and got fire. How dare you say that bastard son of yours is
a Clement?
“I’m telling you. We’ll never take him in!”
After Ava finished her sentence, she stuck her chest out and sashayed
away.
She never wanted to acknowledge Luke. Now that she read the articles online, she was even more
determined.
Kamden’s leaving indicated that he wouldn’t go soft on her again.
Emelia trembled while reading the news online. Everyone present threw a judgmental glance at her.
Emelia’s face was devoid of any color. Her eyes were anxiously searching for Pierce in the crowd.
When Pierce knew this, he fixed his cold and sharp eyes on Emelia.
“That’s not his child, right?”
His tone was harsh and deliberately subdued. His eyes flashed with
anger.
Emelia was the Wingley Arts dancer’s side piece for three years. She

got pregnant before meeting Darion.
Pierce kept a poker face and looked away.
Emelia shook her head with tears streaming down her cheeks. He looked pitiful and nervous.
“No. The kid has Clement’s family’s bloodline. Someone bribed Wingley Arts and set me up. I was
wronged. I wasn’t a homewrecker!”
Emelia looked around and saw a person who was watching from the sidelines. She instantly became
serious.
Her blood was seething with anger. Her head was screaming.
Emelia clutched the phone tightly. From the false alarm to the leaked scandal, she was on the nuttiest
emotional rollercoaster today!
She didn’t believe this was just a coincidence.
Someone must be adding fuel to the fire.
And this person was most likely to be Sophia!Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Emelia glared at Sophia, who seemed to be amused to watch her lose everything.
Then she grabbed the glass by her hand and charged at Sophia.
The crowd quickly broke up while Sophia stood in the same spot with a smile.
Emelia knew Sophia was trying to “?
“Sophia, you set me up. Go to hell!”
provoke her.
Emelia raised the glass and threw it.
Sophia.

But, before the glass parted her hand, Kylan, who was standing beside her, kicked her on her calf.
Emelia went down on her knees, face pale, and let out a bitter groan.
The other people saw it and all took a step back.
No one went to help Emelia up.
Emelia was once the Clement family’s oldest grandson’s mother whom everyone envied and was now
reduced to the homewrecker that everyone hated.
This transformation happened in less than half an hour.
Sophia slowly walked to Emelia. Her lips curled into a faint smile.
She crouched down and mocked, “Ms. Wilson, your scandal was brought to light. Why are you mad at
me?
“Do you regret that you can’t become Mrs. Clement?”
Sophia showed no compassion to Emelia.
Emelia glared at Sophia, her eyes full of hatred and fear.
“You bribed Wingley Arts. It was you!”
Sophia stood up with the corner of her lip lifted. Her eyes were full of unconcealed contempt.
“Do you think the famous dance group would take my bribe? It’s you who wanted to ride on their
coattails, and they thought you were disgusting!”
She didn’t lower her voice on purpose. Instead, she wanted everyone to hear what she said,

Chapter 36 Emotional Rollercoaster
Emelia was ashamed. Her bloodshot eyes bulged. She pounced at Sophia, but Sophia reacted fast.
Composed, Sophia took a step back. Emelia fell to the ground again, looking like a clown.
While being watched by everyone, Pierce walked up to Emelia and yanked her up.
He rudely tossed her to the security guards at the side.
“Take her away.”
There was no trace of patience in his voice.
When Pierce noticed Sophia’s careless expression, his heart lurched.
He didn’t know where to vent his anger. The veins on his forehead twitched.
He didn’t expect Emelia to have such a promiscuous lifestyle.
For her, he got a divorce and lost his child. But if Luke wasn’t Darion’s son, he would become
everyone’s butt of joke.
Waves of remorse washed over him!
The guests were sensible and started exiting the room.
Sophia held Kylan’s arm, turned around, and walked away.
At the door, Kylan, who was in a good mood, chatted with the guests and bid goodbye to them.
Sophia waited patiently.
Pierce chased them up. He stared at Sophia, pursed his lips, and tried his best to control his temper.

“You did the paternity test, didn’t you?”
Sophia raised an eyebrow, neither admitting, nor denying it.
“Do you have any proof, Mr. Clement?”
Knowing that Sophia didn’t deny it, Pierce simmered down.
He said lightly, “You hate me, but you still have feelings for me.”
Pierce thought for a moment and decided to explain some things away.
“Luke isn’t my son. I had an agreement with a man and said I would take care of Emelia and her son. I
had to keep this a secret. Now that you know the truth, do you feel better now?”
Pierce suddenly felt relieved.
Once the truth came to light, the misunderstandings would be cleared.
He was in a relationship with Emelia. Luke wasn’t his son. He figured Sophia would stop being mad at
him.
Sophia cast an indifferent and distant look at him and curled her lip into a sneer.
“Mr. Clement, I’m not interested in your secret, but I’m impressed that you’re such a magnanimous man
who will take care of another man’s wife and kid.
“But if you truly love her, you won’t care who is her kid’s father.
“Ms. Wilson has ruined so many families to come back to you. You’re so compatible. You should stay
with each other forever.”
Sophia gave a cold, genuine, and perfunctory smile.
Her tone was sarcastic.

Sophia planned to leave.
Pierce seized her wrist and scrutinized her face.
“I have nothing to do with her. The truth has come to light. Are you not going to come back to me?”
Sophia shook away his hand and met his eyes.
“It’s none of my business. We’re divorced. I don’t care about your mistress and her kid. If you want to
play the good Samaritan, suit yourself.”
Her voice was filled with impatience and annoyance.
Come back to him?
She didn’t lose her mind.
Pierce completely ruined her good mood now.
Pierce’s eyes turned sad. He remained silent and watched Sophia sit in the car and drive away.
Pierce felt pain in his chest. He suddenly realized that she was still blaming him.
It might take some time for her to digest the truth, after all, it caught her off guard!
Kasen, his assistant, sidled up to Pierce.
She said gingerly, “Mr Clement, they all left. Do you want to block the news?”
It was full of expected twists and turns at the banquet.
Pierce lowered his eyes.

“No. Truth will always prevail!”
Kasen paused.
“The president took Luke to the hospital. They probably went to do a paternity test.”
