Chapter 48: Struck Without Hesitation

Pierce’s eyes deepened a bit, with a slight glint, his thin lips tightly pursed.

He looked at Sophia, her face was unresponsive, indifferent and distant.

Sandra left with her.

Watching Derick persistently chase after it, Pierce was relieved.

His eyes were piercing as he stared at Derick, his voice chillingly intimidating:

“Mr. Woodward, stop coveting other people’s wives, otherwise, there will be a price to pay.”

Derick chuckled, fearlessly rebutting him:

“Ex–wife.”

The aura of the two was evenly matched, making it difficult to determine a winner.

Pierce dangerously narrowed his eyes, then slowly hooked up the corner of his lips:

“My ex–wife was also mine, you were just given a second glance by her because you bear some resemblance to me, haha, a stand–in.”

He raised his eyebrows, revealing undisguised disdain.

Derick squinted his eyes for a moment.

A chill suddenly appeared.

He came here with serious matters to discuss, people were still waiting for him in the upstairs box. Someone came down to invite him, and without hesitation, Derick turned around and left.

Pierce loosened his collar, sat where Sophia had just been sitting, his face dark and devoid of any joy of victory.

Chad, who had been hiding in the corner, finally dared to come out.

“Bro, you were really brave, you said you would fight and you did!”

He quietly raised his thumb.

Even he hadn’t expected that a video he secretly filmed could elicit such a strong reaction from Pierce!

The scene just now, I thought he was going to eat someone!

Pierce took a sip from his wine glass, the spicy liquid flowing down his throat, he found it very bitter.

The scene he had just witnessed, every time he thought of it, he would inexplicably become angry.

He felt a sense of helpless frustration towards Sophia.

He wanted to make it up to her, but she didn’t give him any chance.

She could dance with Derick, be intimate together.

But even if he touched/her hand, she was repulsed.

She clearly wasn’t like this before.

She used to touch him delicately, would delight in his caresses towards her, and respond to him fervently.
