Chapter 117: Loved Me Too Much
Annie was at her wit’s end and had tried to seek Ava multiple times, but was repeatedly turned away.
Last time she asked Ava for help, she had been upset ever since Ava refused.
She seemed to have been abandoned.
Unable to accept it, Annie went directly to the Clement Group.
However, Pierce’s assistant stopped her outside, she waited all morning and didn’t even get a glimpse
of him.
Camille had nothing to do, so she went to the company to gain experience and pass the time.
She was momentarily shocked when she saw Annie:
“Ms. Stapleton?”
Annie saw Camille and smiled with joy:
“Camille, I heard you started working at the company, I knew could do it.”

Camille chuckled, “I did it to prove that I’m not inferior to anyone.”
Derick liked Sophia, wasn’t it her independence that he liked?
She could too!
Annie lowered her gaze and sighed:

“I really envy you, being able to do as you please. Our family has offended Sophia and we’re almost
ruined by her…”
Camille’s eyes widened in shock.
After listening to Annie’s words, she immediately took Annie to Pierce’s office without saying another
word.
Inside the office.
Pierce and the executives were still having a video conference.
Suddenly, someone barged in, his eyes cold and gloomy as he glanced in the direction of the door.
Camille paused for a moment, then quickly spoke:
“Bro. Ms. Stapleton was looking for you, she has been waiting for you for a long time!”
Annie watched him carefully, with a touch of anticipation:
“Mr. Clement.”
“Get out!”
Pierce’s voice was cold and unapologetic.
The two girls stiffened slightly, especially Camille, who was very dissatisfied.
“Bro…”
Pierce’s expression was utterly indifferent:
“I didn’t want to say it a second time.”
At that moment, Pierce’s assistant Kasen hurried over, his face slightly

changing:
“Ms. Clement, Mr. Clement is in a video conference and cannot be disturbed. If you have any business,
please wait outside!”
Camille, due to her status as Pierce’s sister, was usually free to come and go in the company, and no
one dared to stop her.
However, since she started her job, this special treatment was gone, everything had to be done
according to the rules.
She was even inferior to Kasen’s status.
Camille lost face in front of strangers and, in a fit of anger, ran out.
They left Annie there alone.
Kasen also advised her to wait outside, and naturally, Annie wouldn’t stubbornly stand in the office.
She apologized again outside the door, “I’ve caused trouble for Mr. Clement. Ms. Clement is
straightforward and just wanted to help. I’m really sorry.”
Kasen chuckled, his politeness‘ flawless without a hint of negligence.
“Ms. Stapleton, there’s no need to be polite. Mr. Clement simply hated being disturbed when he was in
a meeting.”
Annie stood there, forcing a smile with a pale face.
About an hour later, Pierce came out from inside with people.
While waiting for the elevator, Annie couldn’t wait and ran over:
“Mr. Clement, there was something I needed your help with!”
Pierce looked up, his eyes and brows cold and indifferent.

He didn’t speak, let alone wanting to have any connection with this
woman.
“Ms. Cruise misunderstood our relationship, so she unilaterally ruined the collaboration with my father.
Could you please help, to get my father through this difficult time?”
Pierce remained expressionless, just slightly raising his eyebrows.
Had Sophia misunderstood their relationship?
She got angry, jealous, and felt bitter?
This was exactly what I had been hoping for!
Watching Pierce remain unmoved, Annie bit her lower lip, unable to help but speak: Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“I knew you didn’t want to get engaged to me. As long as you could help, I could go and explain to your
mother, or I could play along with you…”
Pierce’s eyes deepened a bit.
He chuckled lightly, his voice deep as he began to speak:
“Ms. Stapleton remembered what you said.”
After he finished speaking, he went straight into the elevator.
Annie stood there, still not having reacted.
It wasn’t until the elevator slowly closed in front of her that Annie realized, he had agreed!
She was ecstatic.
Inside the elevator.

Kasen, looking at Pierce’s complexion, couldn’t help but ask:
“Did Mr. Clement really want to help?”
Pierce pursed his lips, a slight smirk playing at the corners of his mouth:
“Didn’t
you hear? Sophia was jealous because she loved me too much!”
So he intended to use Annie to completely change Sophia’s mind.
Kasen’s face changed several times, somewhat doubting his own ears.
He didn’t hear at all!
Especially the last sentence!

Sophia had been consistently following up on the progress of SkyVista Enterprises.
Word finally got out from those around Lydia that the competitor of Eagle Entertainment was actually
the Clement Group.
But what was surprising was that the person sent by the Clement Group was actually Camille, who had
just joined the company?
This opportunity was still fought for by Camille herself. She was angry with Pierce last time and insisted
on proving herself, so she took the initiative to apply for this opportunity with the project department
minister.
Originally, this project was of great importance, it wasn’t Camille’s
turn.
However, given Camille’s status and position, and the fact that Lydia
had connections with the Clement family, it seemed that this
collaboration was a done deal. Therefore, it was directly approved for Camille
Pierce didn’t say much when he learned about it, only instructing the project team to keep up.
Lydia had someone invite Sophia to Sky Vista Enterprises to discuss the details of the project.
The two people had a pleasant conversation.
Just before the cooperation was finally confirmed, anything could happen
It was almost noon.
Lydia glanced at the time and said with a smile:
“It’s getting late, let me treat you to a meal, would you like to try the taste of our company’s food?”
Sophia chuckled, “I could only wish.”
The two people had just stood up when a noise came from the door.
Lydia’s face fell slightly, “What’s the matter?”
“It was Ms. Clement who came, she didn’t have an appointment…”
The secretary spoke with difficulty.
Camille, now a competitor of Eagle Entertainment, shouldn’t have run into people from Eagle
Entertainment, which made all three parties feel awkward.
Besides, it was somewhat rude of her to come directly without any

appointment.
Camille pushed the door open directly from outside:
“Auntie, I’m Camille. I came to discuss the project collaboration with you. When are we going to sign
the contract?”
As soon as she entered, she saw Sophia sitting across from Lydia, and her face immediately fell.
She recalled leaving the last dinner party drenched, remembered the man’s indifference and coldness,
and her composure was somewhat disturbed.
“How were you here?”
She bluntly questioned.
Sophia, however, remained calm. She glanced at Lydia, who gave an apologetic smile.
“I apologize for any inconvenience, Ms. Cruise, please wait a moment.” She stood up, looking at
Camille, her face somewhat unpleasant:
“Camille, I had some important matters to attend to at the moment. Could we talk after you schedule a
time with my secretary?”
Camille, refusing to back down, took a deep breath and coquettishly hooked her arm around hers:
“Auntie, it only takes a few minutes to sign. Wasn’t the contract sent over a long time ago? You just
need to sign it directly!”
“It wasn’t that simple…”
something else, but Camille was already

somewhat upset, standing there with a pout.
“Aunt, you wouldn’t want to give this project to a stranger, would you?”
