Chapter 34 His Child

The banquet started.

Emelia finally showed up. She stood beside Pierce in the front row while holding Luke in her arms who

was wearing a little suit. A smile settled on Emelia’s face as hope and pride filled her eyes.

After today, Luke would be the oldest grandson of the Clements, and she would become a member of

this wealthy family. She had nothing to worry about.

So what if she just saw Sophia?

Sophia couldn’t change anything!

Pierce’s father, Kamden Clement, walked into the center with a big smile.

The guests in the banquet hall slowly quieted down.

“Dear guests, now I announce Luke Clement officially becomes a member of the Clement family. I’ll

give 3% of the Clement Group’s shares to my oldest grandson as a gift!”

A round of applause burst from the crowd.

When everyone was cheering for this moment, a hysterical scream was heard.

Everyone was shocked and immediately clammed up.

Ava emerged into the banquet hall, Her chest heaved. She shot a fierce stare at Emelia and then

wended her way to Kamden.

She pulled Kamden to the side, hands trembling. While turning her back to the crowd, she gave a file to

Kamden.

Kamden knitted his brows. After he glanced over the file, his eyes widened in shock, and his

expression changed.

Kamden was livid. He turned around and darted a look at the kid in Emelia’s arms. Then his eyes no

longer looked kind. They blazed with anger and disappointment.

Emelia was still full of joy. She thought she could live a comfortable life with 3% of the shares.

But in the next second, she woke up to reality.

Kamden covered his chest, ashen–faced. He gripped the piece of paper and slowly fell to the ground.

Ava screamed anxiously, “Get the doctor…”

Everyone in the hall freaked out.

Pierce turned pale. He scurried over to catch Kamden from falling, and the bodyguards dashed over to

help.

Soon, a group of people escorted Kamden to the break room to see the doctor.

Pierce stayed to soothe the guests.

The banquet resumed.

Pierce noticed his parents‘ mood changed. He pursed his lips, loosened his tie, and followed behind

them.

Emelia was still in shock.

Emelia had a bad feeling. She tightened her grip on Luke’s arm.

When Emelia turned around, Pierce was gone, but she caught sight of Sophia standing not afar.

Sophia stared at Emelia meaningfully, arched one brow, and smiled while raising the glass in her hand.

There was a spark of amusement in her beautiful eyes.

Instantly, Emelia’s heart gave a lurch.

She was a little flustered.

Emelia glowered at Sophia and ran to the break room.

But the moment Emelia entered the room, someone shoved her, and she almost dropped Luke.

Before Emelia could stand still, someone slapped her in the face.

Everyone could hear the sound.

Luke was startled and started crying.

Emelia covered her face in shock and glanced around the break room.

There was no doctor.

Kamden sat on the couch, deadpan. He was smoldering with rage.

Pierce fixed his eyes on the paper in his hand. He furrowed his brows indifferently.

Emelia took a deep breath and put Luke down on the ground. She looked at Ava as tears welled up in

her eyes.

“Mrs. Clement, what’s going on? Why are you so mad at me?”

Ava was furious. She wished she could beat Emelia to death.

“You tell me! You said your bastard son was a Clement, but he didn’t. You tricked me. To acknowledge

your bastard son, we invited so many social elites. You disgraced us!”

Ava shrilled. She tried her best not to lash out at Emelia in the banquet hall, but now, she couldn’t bear

it.

Emelia blanched. Her eyes were filled with shock, and her voice was choked with tears.

“Bastard son? Luke is a Clement. How can you not believe me and Pierce?”

As Emelia pleaded, tears rolled down her cheeks.

Ava stared at Luke who looked like Pierce and felt annoyed.

Because they were like two peas in a pod, Ava never doubted that Luke wasn’t Pierce’s son.

Until now, after Ava saw the paternity test results, she realized this was just a scam!

Disgusted, Ava looked away. She stared at Emelia who pretended not to know the truth and flew into a

rage.

“Bitch, admit it!”

Pierce wanted to tell Ava not to insult Emelia.

“Mom…”

Emelia burst into tears. She ran over and knelt before Kamden, looking quite pitiful. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

“Sir, this child is Pierce’s son. I didn’t lie. Please trust me!”

Kamden’s expression changed.

He narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, “In that case, let’s do one more paternity test!”

Emelia was stunned. She suddenly looked up at Pierce.

Before Emelia could say something, Pierce crumpled the paper of the paternity test in his hand and

tossed it aside.

“Don’t bother. The kid is not mine.”

Silent prevailed.

Emelia froze, her face colorless. “Pierce, what are you talking about?”

Ava stomped toward Emelia and pushed her.

“I know you’re a scheming bitch. You had another man’s child and wanted to let the Clement family

raise him. You tried to make us a laughingstock!”

Emelia fell in a heap and trembled. She looked at Pierce beseechingly.

“Pierce, you…”

Emelia’s face contorted in pain and terror.

She thought with Pierce’s influence, she could press the doctor to tamper with the test results and

conceal the truth!

But Pierce…

Pierce stared coldly at Emelia. His smothered voice frightened

everyone.

Chapter 34 His Child

“Someone deliberately sent over the paternity test to unveil the truth. I’m sorry, dad, mom. I lied to you.”

Kamden went postal. He swung his arm at Pierce.

Pierce didn’t dodge and let Kamden slap him.

Ava felt bad. She walked to her son while suppressing her anger.

“Did she tell you to do this? Why did you listen to her? Why do you want to raise another man’s child?

Do you know what the company’s shares mean?”

Pierce took a long glance at Ava and then turned to Kamden. His eyes were sad.

“Dad, the child is not mine, but he’s a Clement.”

Kamden suddenly raised his head. His sharp gaze fell on Pierce.

“What are you talking about?”

Ava was stunned.

“Pierce, don’t talk nonsense.”

Pierce knew he couldn’t keep it a secret anymore. A paternity test might not be able to explain it away,

but it would raise some suspicions.

It was a matter of time before the cat was out of the bag.

Pierce looked up at Kamden expressionlessly.

“Dad, do you forget your other son, Darion? Luke is his son.”
