Chapter 121: Feeling Distressed
Sophia was startled.
The people around had all looked over.
Sophia couldn’t even lift her foot to leave, let alone dance. Would it be hard to pretend to care?
She paused, only to turn back:
“Pierce, were you okay?”
She reached out to help him up, but Pierce sat down on the sofa without letting go of Sophia’s arm,
instead pulling it tightly.
Sophia couldn’t draw it back even if she wanted to.
Did he see a ghost, or was he just pretending?
Pierce furrowed his brow, his voice low and hoarse:
“I felt bad.”
Lydia came over when she heard the noise, paused for a moment when she saw the scene, then went
over to look at Pierce’s appearance.
“He was allergic to alcohol and had to be taken to the hospital.”
Sophia was taken aback for a moment, “How could he possibly be allergic to alcohol?”
Lydia: “He wouldn’t be allergic to a single type of alcohol. He must have drunk a mix of several strong
liquors. This happened when he was a child too. Why wasn’t he more careful today?”

She furrowed her brows and checked the time:
“Ms. Cruise, could you please take him to the hospital? I’m tied up with something here and I’m afraid I
can’t spare anyone.”
Sophia opened her mouth, “Isn’t this inappropriate?”
“What’s the big deal? Cooperation is imminent, we can’t let rumors of your discord spread. It’s better for
everyone this way.”
After Lydia finished speaking in a low voice, she helped Pierce up with a smile.
“Get to the hospital quickly, if you delay any longer, he would have suffocated.”
Sophia: “……”
She was about to leave, but got entangled in trouble.
In front of so many people, she could only grit her teeth, help Pierce up, and loudly respond to Lydia:
“Don’t worry, Ms. Ayesa, I will fulfill your trust. I’ll inform you after I take Mr. Clement to the hospital!”
She certainly didn’t want people to think that she willingly took someone to the hospital.
Lydia twitched the corner of her mouth, watching Sophia reluctantly drag Pierce away.
Pierce did obey, but he was leaning half of his body on Sophia, as if he couldn’t stand on his own.
Sophia helped him into the car and directly instructed the driver:

“Went to the hospital.”
The driver didn’t dare to delay and left directly.
Pierce leaned against her, filled with her sweet scent, feeling that all the discomfort he was
experiencing was worth it.
Sophia pushed him away, too forcefully, and his head suddenly hit the glass next to him.
It hurt just to listen.
There was a hint of pain and weariness in his eyes and brows. He pulled his collar open a bit, and in
the light, she could see that his neck was already covered in small red spots.
“Sophia, I felt awful.”
His voice was hoarse and pained, seemingly with a hint of restrained dependence.
Sophia realized that he might actually suffocate to death.
“Hurry up.”
Don’t let him die in his own car.
Pierce stared at her rosy lips, delicate eyebrows and eyes, watching her anxiously worrying for him, his
heart turned into a soft mess.
Suddenly, he gripped her waist, leaning in, and the red lips he had fantasized about all night were
indeed sweet and delicious.
But the next second.
The intense pain on his lips hit him, and he immediately tasted the spreading metallic taste of blood.

He drew in a sharp breath, looking at her with deep yet bewildered eyes.
“Sophia…”
In the darkness.
Sophia’s expression was extremely cold, carrying a hint of aloofness that seemed to push people
thousands of miles away. She spoke softly:
“Pierce, don’t force me to slap you.”
Pierce lowered his head and looked at her for a few seconds, then slowly sat back down.
Suddenly, he reached out and held her palm, making a gesture of interlocking fingers.
“Sophia, come home with me, let’s not fight anymore. Didn’t you want to go on vacation to Paradise
Island? When your birthday comes next week, I’ll go with you, okay?”
Pierce’s voice was warm and deep, his consciousness seemed somewhat unclear.
He forgot that they had already divorced, and had been separated for a long time.
He was still immersed in the incident before the divorce, when Sophia excitedly told him that she
wanted to go on vacation to Paradise Island, but he disliked it for being too far away and didn’t want to
go.
Sophia couldn’t pull her hand back, watching his profile immersed in the dark shadows. The bitterness
in her heart, which had been forcefully suppressed, was easily reopened by him, like a wound.

chasing.
It was ridiculous.
Pierce, who was next to her, was still babbling on about something, but Sophia couldn’t take in a single
word.
This journey was truly torturous to the extreme.
Arrived at the hospital.
Sophia had called in advance, and the doctor had already prepared for the emergency.
But Pierce stubbornly refused to let go of Sophia’s hand, mumbling:
“Sophia, I felt awful.”
The doctor nearby hurriedly approached and asked:
“Mr. Clement, where did you feel uncomfortable?”
Pierce held Sophia’s hand, placing it on his chest, and said in a delirious state:
“I felt upset, Sophia, a kiss from you would have made me feel better.”
He was covered in rashes, especially noticeable on his neck, yet there was a hint of mockery in his
eyes.
He was actually just focused on flirting?
Everyone looked at Sophia in silence.
Everyone was originally serious, but ended up being fed a mouthful of dog food.
Sophia couldn’t free her hand, infuriated to death.

Hearing Pierce’s nonsense, he immediately became even more furious.
She directly pinched Pierce’s injured hand, causing him to break out in a cold sweat from the pain.
He widened his eyes abruptly, his whole body shuddering.
Sophia took the opportunity to pull back her hand, and also kicked him from behind.
The doctor ahead was stunned, stepping forward to catch the “fragile” Pierce.
Sophia’s complexion remained unchanged, she brushed her hair lightly, and calmly smiled at them:
“He might have had an allergic reaction from mixing several types of alcohol. I apologize for the
inconvenience. He will handle the expenses when he wakes up. I have to go now, goodbye.”
She waved her hand, didn’t even enter the hospital gate, and directly turned around and left.
Everyone: ”
Before Sophia left, she took a photo of them and sent it to Lydia.
And added a postscript: “Task completed, Ms. Ayesa, remember to notify his family.”
Lydia:
Two hours later.
Kasen arrived at the hospital.
Watching the miserable Pierce, Kasen had been sighing continuously.

The next day.
Pierce had finally woken up.
His allergy symptoms had all subsided.
He still remembered that it was Sophia who brought him here last night. She couldn’t bear her own
discomfort and specifically took him to the hospital.
Her care and love for him made him feel warm inside.
But when I opened my eyes, I didn’t see the person I imagined, instead, I saw Kasen with a scruffy
beard.
Pierce’s face fell:
“How were you here?”
His voice was low and hoarse, his mood not elevated.
Kasen was startled awake, rubbing his eyes:
“Mr. Clement, you’re awake, that’s great!”
“Where was I asking for Sophia?”
Pierce glanced around, there were no signs that anyone else had stayed in the suite.
This made him somewhat disappointed.
Kasen paused, “Oh, Ms. Cruise left last night, she had other things to do!”
Pierce frowned, feeling that the hand he had injured, which was almost healed, was, somehow more
painful than before.

As soon as he got out of bed, he suddenly felt something was wrong with his foot, a kind of sharp pain.
He looked down and saw that the top of his right foot was swollen…
He furrowed his brows slightly, looking at Kasen with dissatisfaction:
“Did you hit me last night while I was drunk?”
Kasen, being extremely wronged, immediately waved his hand:
“It wasn’t me, it really wasn’t me, how could I possibly do such a thing!”
Pierce felt a tightness in his chest. When he woke up, his old injury had flared up again and he had
new ones. He felt incredibly unlucky.
It definitely wasn’t Sophia.
She didn’t even have time to love herself!
