Chapter 25
Become the Richest Woman After Divorce
Chapter 25 His Intention Emeliaâs face turned pale, her chest heaving with anger.
But she did not dare to be so cross with Sophia. With the current public opinion, it was no good for her to make a scene.
The director was still in shock, but Sophia had already left.
But she didnât leave. Instead, she went to the producerâs office.
Things turned out to be exactly as she had expected.
Plenty of people were having a heated discussion in the office, even including the head of the station.
âI know youâre pissed and donât want Emelia on the show. But Mr. Clement has just invested in our show, and how can we make him look bad?â
The producer gritted his teeth and said.
âThat woman harbors evil intentions, and it almost cost me my career last time. It was a relief for me that Eagle Entertainment fired her directly.
âBut you⦠You even asked her to be one of the judges!
âAre you deliberately giving me a hard time?
âThereâs no way I would ever work with someone like that!â
The head of the station heaved a sigh and said helplessly.
âThis time, Nolan asked me to get Emelia in our show, and heâs still in 0.00%
Intention my office now, so how can I say no? Next time, if Pierce shows up in person, am I supposed to say no too?â
They couldnât afford to offend a big shot like Pierce.
The producer was too furious to say anything.
Sophia paused, turned, and went downstairs to leave.
She had just arrived downstairs when she saw Nolan standing there in his white shirt, talking to Emelia.
Emelia was standing there with a bright smile and it was clear she was in a good mood.
âThank you for your help, Nolan. Thank you for standing beside Pierce and me. We will treat you to dinner someday.â
Nolan loosened his neckline, and his cold eyes softened a little.
âYouâre welcome. Youâre just too kind, and that was why youâve been bullied all the time. You donât have to be afraid of Sophia. If she keeps picking on you, you just need to knock out all her interns.â
Hearing what Nolan said, Sophia snorted and walked slowly down the last step.
Nolan and Emelia were stunned.
Emelia immediately calmed down and gave Nolan a flustered look. Then she shook her head, hinting at him to lower his voice.
An arrogant playboy from a wealthy family like Nolan didnât feel apologetic or flustered at all.
He arranged his clothes slowly, glanced sideways at Sophia, and spoke in a bad tone.
Chapter 25 Mis Intention âWhat are you afraid of? If it wasnât for Pierce, she wouldnât be able to still stay in this circle.
âSome people just think too much of themselves!â
Of course, Sophia sensed his plain mockery of her.
From the time she married Pierce, Nolan was the most hostile to her, and she didnât even know why.
But after thinking for a moment, she felt she had no reason to pretend that she didnât hear anything.
So she turned around, with a cool and indifferent look on her face and her eyes shining brightly. Then she said lightly with a smile.
âAre you talking about me?â
âYes!â
To stand up for Emelia, he retorted.
Sophia folded her arms, lowered her head, and grinned.
âDonât you think you are just too meddlesome?
âI think you may just mind your own business!â
Nolan was so furious that he wanted to go argue with her. However, Emelia quickly stopped him.
âForget about it! Nolan, donât be mad. What if others see it?â
âDo you think she cares? How could you still think of her after being bullied by her like this? Why doesnât someone like her get the punishment she deserves yet?â
Nolan said in a bad tone.

Chapter 25 His intention Sophiaâs smile faded, and she looked at him with a straight face.
âYes! Retribution is a matter of time, but we never know whoâs gonna get it.â
She glanced at Emelia, who was standing next to him, and then turned to leave.
That glance made Emelia panic.
Sophia turned to leave while he flew in a rage.
âThis woman is so arrogant! Donât worry, Emelia. Iâve already talked with the guys in the TV station, she wonât dare to bully you.â
Although Warren, Nolanâs father, was only a director, he had won numerous awards and was very famous.
Warren had a very high position in the circle.
Emelia smiled and nodded.
As soon as Sophia left the station, she called the producer.
He answered it immediately and was too angry to talk normally.
âMs. Cruise, I was just about to call you. I have something to tell youâ¦â
âI know all about it. Emeliaâs on the judging panel.â
She interrupted him and said in a soft, calm voice.
âDonât worry. Just let her be! If others find out she doesnât deserve it, sheâs gonna be in bigger trouble.â
The producer was stunned and silent for a moment.
Chapter 25 Ms intention âOK.â
He owed Sophia a huge favor. Thanks to the proof she provided, he could clear his name.
At noon.
Sophia got a call from the hospital.
âNo paternityâ¦â
Those words stuck in her ears. She felt like a dream, and she just could not believe it or understand it.
âLuke isnât Pierceâs son?
Thereâs no way Pierce doesnât know that.
So, he just loves Emelia so much that he treats her son like his own?
He gave all his love and tolerance to her, so he didnât care about me or our unborn child.
He just said he would make up for me, and thatâs all!â
Tears welled up in her eyes and she felt heartâbroken.
The sun was burning.
She suddenly felt very tired and seemed to have been drained of all her strength in an instant..
She didnât know why.
Perhaps this incident made her feel really ridiculous and pathetic to herself.
She thought, âI didnât lose to a bastard.
Chapter 25 His intention âBut to the great love between Pierce and Emelia?â
She was lost in grief.
And after a long time, she finally came back to her senses.
She did not go to the company but directly went back to the Cruiseâs place, lying in her room.
Everything quieted down, and she finally felt a sense of security.
She took a light sleep.
The phone rang suddenly.
It was a strange number. She felt familiar, but she couldnât remember where she had seen it.
She picked up the phone. The voice of the man on the other side of the line was clear.
âHello, Ms. Cruise.â
Sophia slightly pursed her lips. âDerick?â
âYes, itâs me. Did you get the result, Ms. Cruise?â
He spoke with confidence as if he knew everything.
She felt resistant in her heart, suspecting he had someone following her everywhere.
She couldnât figure out what he was up to.
So she just kept silent.
He laughed and explained in a low and hoarse voice.
Chapter 25 His intention âI went to Eagle Entertainment at noon today, and they told me you did not go to work this afternoon, so I guess you may know the result now. Are you in a bad mood?â
She breathed a sigh of relief and her voice softened.
âYes, I got the result, and it surprised me. You wanted to see me, Mr. Woodward?â
His voice deepened a little.
âArenât you curious, Ms. Cruise? Pierce knew Luke wasnât his son, but why would he keep it from everyone?â
His voice was mellow and he seemed to be explaining to her in detail.
âIf you want to know the answer, you may take advantage of Pierceâs mother to find it for you.â
Sophia slightly frowned. âWhy are you telling me this?â
She always felt that Derick was very mysterious, and it seemed as if he deliberately approached her with some purpose.
Derick sighed lightly.
âBecause I donât want to see you sad or live in hateâ¦â
She hung up before he could finish his words.
âHow gross!â She thought.
He chuckled and shook his head.
Then the smile on his face was replaced by a vicious and cold expression.
Derick thought, âPierce, I canât wait to watch a good show!â
