Get lost Ex-husband novel Chapter 45

Chapter 45 

Substitute? 

Sophia turned to stare at Pierce’s face for a while and then looked away. 

She found his words incredible. 

She didn’t need to date a substitute for Pierce at all. 

She didn’t even want to see Pierce, 

She had to admit that when they first met, she thought Derick was similar 

to Pierce. 

She found, however, after she became acquainted with Derick, that he was a very different man from Pierce. Moreover, she would never see anyone as a substitute for another person. 

She was not a pervert. 

Sophia looked out of the window and uttered a little snort of laughter. She rolled her eyes at Pierce secretly. 

Pierce, however, took her silence as acquiescence. If Sophia had known it, she would certainly have regretted not denying his words at once. 

Pierce believed that what he said was right. 

He couldn’t help curling his lips up and being in a better mood. 

He loosened his collar. 

Then, he spoke in a relaxed voice, “Let bygones be bygones. If you agree, we can be together as before. You don’t need to go to those substitutes

anymore.” 

At that, Sophia lifted her head and landed her gaze on Pierce’s face. 

She could no longer control herself. She leaned forward and suddenly moved closer to Pierce, wondering how he could be this shameless. 

The distance between them narrowed. 

With Sophia closer to him, Pierce could see her rosy lips more clearly. It was as if she were seducing him. 

Pierce mistakenly thought that he had convinced Sophia to be together with him again. 

The thought of how soft her waist was made him a little itchy. He could still feel the warmth of her waist against his fingertips. 

He narrowed his eyes and felt his heart beat faster. 

However, what happened the next second shocked him. 

Sophia caught him suddenly by the face and looked into his eyes. indifferently. She curled her lips up a little. 

“Mr. Clement, you’d better go back and look at yourself carefully in the mirror. Derick doesn’t look like you.” 

She shook her fingers in disgust and then resumed her position. 

Sophia ignored Pierce’s gloomy face. 

She added, “I don’t understand why you think I’ll be with you again as long as you want me to do so. I’m not Ms. Wilson. I have my dignity.” 

Sophia’s voice was soft, but her words were heartless.

Did he want to let bygones be bygones? No way! 

She would never forget how Pierce and Emelia had hurt and insulted her. 

Pierce’s face darkened suddenly, and his thin lips pursed into a straight line. He felt uncontrollably heart–wrenching 

He didn’t understand why. 

Sophia tapped on the window and spoke in a flat voice. 

“Stop the car. My car is behind.” 

Once in Pierce’s car, she texted her driver. 

The latter had already followed. 

Without Pierce’s orders, his driver dared not reply to Sophia and could only pretend that he had not heard her. 

With a look of indifference on her face, Sophia cast a glance at Pierce. 

Then, she said coldly, “Stop the car now, or I’ll jump out.” 

She sounded calm, as if she had just said what she wanted for dinner. 

Clearly, she was serious. 

Only then did Pierce realize that she was extremely alert and aloof when she was with him. 

It was unlike when she was with Derick or other men. 

He felt somewhat upset. 

There was a dead silence in the car for a moment. 

“Stop the car,” Pierce said in a hoarse voice.

At that, the driver pulled to the side of the road and stopped. 

When Pierce was about to say something, Sophia opened the car door and jumped off with one foot. 

He frowned and immediately got out of the car. Didn’t she know that she had hurt her foot? 

Sophia’s driver came over as well. He greeted Pierce with a nod and went to help Sophia with his arm. 

Pierce’s face clouded as he went forward to grab her by the arm. 

“Let me help you upstairs.” 

Without waiting for Sophia’s response, Pierce was about to carry her in his embrace. Just then, his driver got out of the car and rushed over with a phone that had just gotten through. 

The driver said hurriedly, “Mr. Clement, someone beside Ms. Wilson called and said she was going to jump off the building…” 

As soon as he finished speaking, it became deadly silent around. 

Sophia shook Pierce’s hand violently away and sneered indifferently. 

“Hurry up and go back. Your beloved woman is going to jump off the building.” 

Pierce narrowed his eyes. 

He replied seriously, “Listen, she has nothing to do with me. I have no affection for her at all.” 

Pierce didn’t want to hear Sophia say that Emelia was his beloved woman again.

He really regretted that he had allowed Sophia to misunderstand his relations with Emelia at that time. That was the reason why things had come to such a pass. 

He wouldn’t make the same mistake again. 

Sophia uttered a chuckle. 

“You exchanged your marriage and child for her. Of course, she is your beloved woman.” 

What she had said sounded so cold. 

As Pierce stood dumbfounded, Sophia turned and walked away. 

She left so soon despite a sprained ankle. 

She completely ignored the man behind her and went straight to her car. 

It was only after she got into the car that she began to feel the pain in her 

foot. 

Sophia could no longer assume a calm expression. She gave a snort. 

What did Pierce mean to do? Did he think she would come back to him and work for the Clement Group just because of what he had said? Did he want to use her in this way to remove the negative impact of his scandal on the company? 

How cunning he was! If she got hooked, everyone would turn to scold her for helping him for money. 

She took a deep breath and couldn’t help feeling chilly all over. 

Was Emelia going to jump off the building? 

All of a sudden, Sophia wanted to know if Emelia would indeed do that.

Thinking of this, she asked the driver to change direction.
