"Only something valuable is worthy of you. It's just a bracelet, nothing much. Aren't we good friends? Don't be a stranger."
At this point, it seemed like Sophia had no reason to continue refusing.
This bracelet was a limited edition of the season, a private collection that money couldn't buy.
It was made by inlaying various diamonds from different parts of the world, shining brightly and full of vitality.

She liked it as soon as she saw it, but she forgot about it as soon as she turned her head.

Brycen and the others had received an invitation to the Clement family's banquet.
They hadn't gone there much in the past, mainly because they weren't close enough and couldn't be bothered to go.
Especially Cecilia, she was the least willing to see the hypocritical faces of their family.
However, had she known earlier that Derick was coming to Kamden's birthday party, she would not have come, no matter what.
But when she got to the door and saw Kamden and Ava standing there, she realized she had been careless.

Derick looked at her cold, resistant expression from the side. and coughed apologetically:
"Sophia, you better not run anymore..."
Sophia glared at him, biting her teeth in silence:
"Mr. Woodward, why did I feel like I fell into a pit?"
Kamden and Ava saw Derick and Sophia, their faces instantly changed.
But in such situations, no one had ever come to blows.
Kamden came over with a smile and shook hands with Derick.

Ava watched Sophia, who was holding onto Derick's arm, with an unpredictable expression on her face.
"How did you come here, don't you know your own status? Your presence in our kind of occasion lowers our class and value, you really lack self-awareness." Derick's face stiffened, his eyes darkly fixed on Ava, his voice coldly began:
"Was Mrs. Clement dissatisfied with my female companion, or was she dissatisfied with me?"
"If you were not satisfied with us, then you should not have sent an invitation, to avoid being humiliated for no reason when
visiting."
Derick's voice was cold and stern, his surrounding air of arrogance and indifference instantly intensified.
Ava's face changed color: "I..."

She hadn't expected such a strong reaction from Derick, and she overlooked that this was not the place to be so impulsive.
Meanwhile, Kamden gave Ava a blaming look, his face cold and stern:
"What nonsense, Mr. Woodward has always been the one the group wanted to cooperate with, and Sophia is not an outsider either. Apologize immediately!" Asking Ava to apologize to Sophia in public was simply asking for her life!

Sophia didn't say a word, standing there with a mocking smile on her lips, watching Ava's embarrassment and indignation.
Was at a stalemate.
Camille, dressed in a lively and playful pink dress, ran over, laughing very happily:
"Derick, you came, sister-in-law?"
When she saw Sophia standing next to Derick, her eyes were somewhat lost.
But it wasn't too obvious.
Sophia didn't respond either, her dislike for Camille just
increased a bit more.

Derick's eyebrows didn't move, he reminded Ava in a clear and cold voice:
"Mrs. Clement, you hadn't apologized to us yet."
The scene was momentarily tense.
Camille looked at Ava in shock.
Quite a few people around were looking over here.
Kamden, unable to swallow his pride, warned Ava in a low voice:
"Apologize, or you might as well go back now!"
Ava's complexion changed several times, gritting her teeth in unwillingness:

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left. immediately, fearing that she wouldn't be able to control her emotions and would ruin the situation. Kamden looked at Derick with a smile:
"Mr. Woodward, I had another matter to consult with you, this way please......" Derick glanced at Sophia, Sophia nodded, "I'm going to get something to eat."
In fact, as soon as Derick left, Camille couldn't wait to pull Sophia away. "Sister-in-law, how come you came with him?"

Sophia looked at her coldly, increasingly disliking her lack of boundaries.
"Don't call me sister-in-law anymore, and I don't need to explain to you who I'm with."
Camille sulked, pouting dejectedly.
At that time, a few socialites dressed in expensive luxury walked
over.
"Camille, who were you talking to?"
Camille paused, looking at the newcomer:

"Sister Annie?"

The delicate and elegant demeanor that Annie possessed was truly befitting of a pianist, creating a sense of distance.
The others were also pampered socialites from their families, looking at her with ambiguous smiles on their faces.
Sophia was about to leave when she saw Ava coming in a new outfit. The outfit was so magnificent and luxurious, it seemed as if it was covered in gold flakes, enough to blind anyone.
She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to become the most dazzling woman in the room.
"Sophia, since you're here, eat more..."
Her face seemed to have changed, surprisingly, she smiled kindly, took her hand to look at it, and sighed with a heartache:

"Look at you, you've been away from the Clement family for so long, you've lost weight. As your mother-in-law, I really can't bear it!"
Sophia subconsciously took two steps back.
No good intentions!
Ava sighed to herself, then turned to the others with a gentle and generous smile:
Actually, their divorce was due to a lack of fate, but I always considered Sophia as my own daughter.
"Although Sophia came from a poor background and her lifestyle was different from ours, we still hoped that you could find a boyfriend for her in the future..."
Sophia couldn't help but snort lightly, it was just too ridiculous.

"Pierce's mother was really nice to you. I heard someone say before that this mother-in-law was hard to get along with. That must have been false information you spread!"
"She was clearly so good to you, yet you were ungrateful. You were just pushing your luck and being insatiable!"
Sophia suddenly realized, Ava was playing the role of a good mother-in-law!
How could she possibly let Ava succeed?
Sophia pondered for a moment, then immediately cooperated with her, her eyes red and blinking pitifully.
"Thank you, Aunt, for thinking of me, and also for reminding me every day that I come from a poor background and am not good Chapter 99.

Even the one who had an illegitimate child couldn't get in before, so naturally, I, who had luckily gotten married, couldn't stay happy for long.
"I knew you always wanted to find a well-matched person to be your daughter-in-law, and I divorced as you wished. Can't you just let me go?" She choked up as she was speaking.
The sight of the tea's aroma shocked everyone.
