Chapter 84
Become the Richest Woman After Divorce
Chapter 84: The Secret of the Car Accident Sophiaâs expression faltered slightly.
This was the second time she had seen the two of them appear together.
Last time at the hospital, Emelia lost her temper, Pamela was also there, although at the time Pamela acted like a bystander.
But they would knowâ¦
A thought flashed through Sophiaâs mind, but she didnât catch it in time.
Pamela wà s Nolanâs woman, and Emelia always had a good relationship with Nolan.
So, it was normal that Pamela and Emelia knew each other.
But Pamelaâs identity was not revealed, how could Nolan possibly introduce her to his friends rashly?
She always felt that something seemed off.
Derick looked at her blankly, waving his hand:
âSophia, what happened?â
Sophia withdrew her gaze and laughed:
âNothing much, just saw someone I know.â
Derick: âShould we go say hello?â
âNo need, not very familiar.â
Sophia laughed a bit, the two of them chatted about other things, and Derick got up to answer a phone call.
Sophia went to the bathroom.
On the way back, I happened to pass by the table of Emelia and Pamela.
Was just listening to their conversation.
Emeliaâs tone was somewhat angry:
âTen million? You really dare to dream, asking for the moon, arenât you? Are you worth ten million, or is it your dad whoâs worth ten million?â
Although Pamela appeared young and naive, her response was calm.
She took a sip of her coffee, her head bowed, before speaking with a hint of a cold smirk at the corner of her mouth:
The secret I knew was valuable!
My father became a vegetable in a car accident while working for you. Initially, you dismissed our entire family with half a million, and condescendingly said it was out of pity for us.
My mother passed away two years ago from exhaustion, as she had to pay for medical bills and my education.
âHow could our family have fallen apart if it werenât for you?â
Emeliaâs face darkened with anger, she sneered coldly, glaring at her intently:
Chad The Bacres of the Cat Aristare âYour dad messed things up even when he was handling things with money. It was already generous of me to offer five hundred thousand. Donât push your luck.â
Your dad is now in a vegetative state, which is already quite good. If he woke up, he would have to go to jail!
Did you dare to reveal my matters?
âDid Nolan know you were the daughter of the person who killed him, after all those years you spent together?â
Pamelaâs complexion had subtly changed, her eyes carrying a hint of gloom.
Emelia twirled her hair around her finger smugly, tilted her head to size her up, and began to speak with a smile:
âIf he knew, he would hate you to death! And you still want to threaten me?â
âPamela, you still need to stay grounded. Even if you want to take shortcuts, you should find value in a man. Youâre always threatening me, and thatâs not a good habit.â
She stood up, looking at the little girl she completely disregarded with a forced smile.
âI remember that after the car accident, your dad became a vegetative state because the treatment was delayed. Do you know why it was late?â
Emelia looked at her faintly, speaking word by word:
âIt was Nolan who ordered not to make full efforts to save him, so your father was left unattended at the door of the emergency room all night.â
Chapter 2 The Secret of the Car Nesent She couldnât help but laugh out loud, admiring the sudden change of color on Pamelaâs face. She shook her head, then swaggered away from there.
Pamelaâs innocent features were completely rigid and cold, her whole body tense, as if she had suffered a heavy blow, lost and panicked.
Sophia stood in the corridor, watching Emelia leave and Pamela sit there motionless.
She herself was incredibly shocked.
A car accident, a vegetative state, and Nolan?
She felt momentarily unable to digest it all, as if she had unexpectedly learned a huge secret and didnât know what to do.
Derick sent her a message, asking if she needed help.
She quickly replied, âNo need, Iâll be back soon.â
She gathered her thoughts and had just stepped out when she saw Pamela, who had stood up and was planning to leave.
The moment the two people made eye contact, Pamelaâs face changed.
She knew Sophia had heard everything just now.
Sophia wanted to walk past as if nothing had happened, but ended up being caught by the arm by Pamela. Her calm demeanor betrayed a hint of tension, her gaze flickering uncertainly.
âMs. Cruise, what did you hear?â
Sophia was just about to speak when she saw Derick coming out from inside.
Pharia Re Watching the two people momentarily stunned, they then gently turned their gaze towards Sophins âI was worried that you might have rum into trouble, thankfully youâre okay.â
Sophia, with her elegant and subtle demeanor, naturally began to speak with a smile:
âI ran into someone I knew on the road and gol delayed after chatting for a while.â
Derick glanced down at his watch, his movements calm and indifferent:
âIs it about time? Shall I take you home?â
Sophia nodded.
Pamela, who was standing aside, wanted to say something, but Sophia didnât give her the chance. She directly walked away with Derick, one in front of the other.
She was not interested in the secret between Pamela and Emelia, and naturally, she would not interact with them.
At a young age, Pamela had become Nolanâs canary and even had a child, indicating that this personâs character was actually not very good.
She still kept her distance!
Fortunately, on the way back, Derick didnât ask much. They naturally joked around and discussed the project, and soon arrived at the bottom of the Eagle Entertainment building.
Derick opened the car door for her, Sophia got out of the car, waving him off \
But as soon as she entered the company, she saw Camille standing at the reception desk, looking at her with a mournful gaze.
Sophia chuckled and walked over:
âCamille, when did you come over? Did you need something from me?â
Camille, with a sullen expression, was clearly unhappy and spoke bluntly:
âSisterâinâlaw, why did you go out alone with Derick? Didnât you know you should avoid suspicion?â
âWhy did he open the car door for you? People might misunderstand if you keep coming and going together. Are you being fair to my brother?â
Sophiaâs laughter subsided, she quietly watched her, her attitude somewhat distant:
âIâve said it many times, I divorced him a long time ago, I owe him nothing no matter who Iâm with!â
Her initial impression of Camille was that of warmth and innocence, but now it seemed as if the innocence had gone too far, becoming somewhat inappropriate.
However, she didnât need to coax and yield to the Miss of the Clement family. It would be nice to be friends, but it wouldnât be a big deal if they couldnât.
Camilleâs face turned pale, her expression resembling the shame, anger, and pain of betrayal.
Chapter 4: The Secret of the Car Acckterit âSisterâinâlaw, how could you say such a thing? My brother was still deeply in love with you, yet you were with the man I had my eyes on. You truly disappointed me!â
The receptionist couldnât help but speak up for Sophia:
âMr. Woodward has been pursuing our Ms. Cruise ever since he returned to the country. Theyâve known each other for a long time. Itâs just that our Ms. Cruise didnât agree. Why are you making it sound like our Ms. Cruise interfered with your relationship?â
Camilleâs expression stiffened slightly, she bit her lower lip, on the verge of crying out in grievance. With tearâfilled eyes, she looked at Sophia, waiting for her to come over and comfort her with kind words.
However, Sophia merely glanced at her indifferently, then gently turned her attention to the receptionist:
âI had another meeting, so I escorted Ms. Clement out.â
âYes.â
Seeing her about to leave, Camille panicked and quickly chased after her, saying:
âSisterâinâlaw, could you promise me, donât meet with Derick anymore in the future, I feel thereâs something off about the way he looks at you, he canât really like you, youâd better stay away from himâ¦..â
