Being Pursued By Ex-husband
Chapter 129
The smile on Sophia's face began to wane as she looked at the man in front of her and informed him that she did not require his assistance.
For tasks she could complete on her own, she did not need anyone else's help.
“I just want to be of assistance to you.”
Alexander pursed his thin lips in resignation as he noticed her indifference.
She had herself too well protected. In the eight months following the divorce, he had been unable to find a way to win her heart once more.
She appeared to have completely stopped loving him.
Suddenly, Alexander felt as if something had stabbed his heart. Even though he was uneasy, he was unwilling to give up. He refused to concede defeat, lifting his head to face Sophia.
Although he did not really know her, he eventually realized that she was not cold-hearted but rather overly defensive after they had been separated for more than eight months. He just needed more time to gradually get her to drop her defenses.
He would never give up after only eight months, for she had devoted three years of her life to him.
Moreover, he could not bear the thought of losing her.
“But I don't need your help.”
They were both obstinate, and because no one wanted to give in, the atmosphere became awkward.
Alexander could make concessions on other issues, but not on this one.
In actuality, Sophia never intended to force him to give up, nor did she want to argue with him because it would ruin her mood.
After five seconds of silence, she shifted in her seat and queried, “How much did you spend to buy back the bracelet?”
“Original price,” Alexander replied after a brief glance at her.
In fact, Sophia was well aware that the original price he was referring to was not the price Delilah had sold it for.
“Could you lend me your phone?” she inquired with a smile on her face.
Later, Alexander handed her his phone after pulling it out of his pocket.
Reaching out, Sophia took it and asked, “What's the password?”
“0716.”
His reply caused Sophia's fingers to pause momentarily.
Her birthday was on July sixteenth.
Soon, the screen was unlocked. She clicked on Paypal and generated the QR code to receive payment before taking out her phone and transferring two hundred and eighty thousand to his account.
All of a sudden, Alexander thought back to the last time she had taken his phone and sent him to the country's outskirts. Furrowing his brows, he called out, “Sophia?”
The woman locked the screen. In less than eight seconds, she had already placed his phone on the table.
“It's done. I won't be seeing you off since I have work to attend to later.”
It was obvious that she wanted him to leave, and he also knew that staying would only infuriate her.
The next moment, he picked up his phone, not forgetting about the matter regarding Tobias. “When are you free?”
Taking a sip of coffee, Sophia finally gave in. “Since you've already scheduled a meeting for tomorrow evening, I'll be there.”
“I'll come get you.”
“That's not necessary. I can go there on my own.”
Nodding, Alexander stopped pressing the issue. “See you tomorrow night.”
“Goodbye, Mr. Xenos,” Sophia said as she rose to her feet.
As he approached the door, he turned around to face her, wanting to say something. However, he eventually decided against it and walked out of the mansion after giving her one last look.
The moment he left, Sophia shut the door and went back inside the mansion.
The sound of a car's engine could be heard as soon as she got to the second floor. Raising her brows, she stepped onto the balcony and watched as the black sedan sped away. Then, she pulled back her gaze and went to the study on the third floor to get ready for the video conference.
After two days, the situation surrounding the live broadcast had subsided. Delilah panicked when she learned that Sophia intended to file a lawsuit. She wanted to meet Sophia, but the latter consistently declined Aidan's requests.
Sophia had requested Yvonne to cancel the planned dinner with Tobias after Alexander left that day.
She chose to delegate the task to Alexander because of his propensity to meddle in her personal matters.
The dinner was scheduled for half-past six at Mirage.
It was already half-past five when Sophia's meeting, which had begun at three, was over.
Standing next to her, Yvonne updated her on the latest developments with Magic Sense. The second round of funding was about to begin as February came to an end.
Right now, Robert and the others seemed to be back on track.
“Okay, thank you.”
“It's my responsibility, Ms. Yarrow.”
Later, Sophia gazed at Yvonne and asked, “Is the Johnson family preparing to take over Expedite?”
She had heard that Tobias had met Charles twice and had looked happy the last few days. The only thing that could bring him joy was that someone had finally chosen to help clean up Expedite's mess.
Pressing her lips together, Yvonne replied, “I haven't heard anything about this yet.”
Sophia responded with a nod. “Got it. I'll leave now.”
“All right, Ms. Yarrow.”
As Yvonne stared at Sophia's departing figure, she could not help but feel enraged once again when she thought back on what Felix had said the other night.
How dare he say that Mr. Xenos and Ms. Yarrow are a match made in heaven? Blegh! What a shameless man!
Naturally, Sophia was unaware that her secretary and Alexander's secretary had a protracted discussion about whether or not she was deserving of Alexander.
