Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 138

Sophia didn't sleep well the previous night. The moment she woke up the next day, her phone on the bedside table started flickering continuously.

Due to the lack of rest, Sophia's head started aching. It also left her in a sour mood.

She reached out for her phone and saw that she had received around a hundred WhatsApp messages. When Sophia clicked on the app, she realized most of them were from Katherine. Some of the texts were from Charlize, who wanted to probe how she was doing.

Sophia decided to reply to Charlize first and texted: I'm fine.

She then proceeded to click on the chat room with Katherine. Her friend had sent her some texts last night. The latest one was only twenty minutes ago. Unlike the previous messages that sounded as if she was gloating, the most recent text seemed more cautious: Are you all right?

After browsing through quickly, Sophia only realized Alexander had gotten into a car accident the night before. Samuel had updated on Instagram regarding the incident, and the post had spread like wildfire. As a result, everyone in Jadeborough who was acquainted with Samuel knew about the mishap last night.

In reality, a car accident wasn't a rare case. However, this incident had captured people's attention not only because Alexander was involved in it but also because Samuel mentioned the cause of the car crash on Instagram—to court someone.

Alexander's car accident not only went viral on Instagram but also on the internet.

The reason was that someone had posted a picture of Alexander and the others playing golf with Sophia at the golf course the day before.

If one tried linking it to Sophia and Alexander's past relationship, they would find the car accident due to courting someone to be a different story.

It was no exaggeration to say their divorce last year had caused an uproar. Therefore, Alexander's recent car crash would also attract much attention.

Nevertheless, someone had taken down the trending topic concerning Alexander by the time Sophia checked her Twitter. She might not even know about the incident if Katherine hadn't taken a screenshot of it intentionally.

Even though Alexander had an accident, Samuel was still in a mood to post something on Instagram, which could only mean it wasn't that serious.

Sophia replied to Katherine's text before putting down her phone to wash up.

After breakfast, Sophia changed her clothes and drove to the gym. She trained there for over two hours and only headed back to the mansion when it was lunchtime.

Just when her food delivery arrived, she received a call from Katherine.

Sophia raised her brow. “Have you eaten?”

“I just got to take a break. I'm waiting for Jonice to bring me some food now!” After a brief pause, Katherine started stammering, which was unusual, “W-Well, what exactly happened last night?”

Sophia had long assumed her friend would bring up the topic. She harrumphed. “No idea.”

Indeed, she did not know anything. After all, she had parted ways with Alexander outside of Early March and only learned about his car crash from other people.

“Did something happen between you guys? Don't try to lie to me. You were obviously not yourself when I called you last night!”

Knowing it was an exceptional situation where she was under Katherine's thumb, Sophia chuckled. “You're pretty observant.”

Katherine let out a snort and felt smug deep down. “Don't change the subject! Please answer my question directly, Ms. Yarrow,” she teased.

Sophia put her takeout aside and glimpsed at the box on the coffee table. “I bumped into Alexander, Charles, and the others when I went for golf. We had a meal together after that and ran into Kayla along the way.”

“Kayla?” Katherine immediately understood what was going on. “What did she do again?”

Back then, when Sophia and Alexander had had their wedding, Kayla had barged into the dressing room and even caused a disturbance. Katherine had gone to the restroom at that time. Otherwise, based on her personality, she would have pinned the wretched woman to the ground and beat her up.

When she had learned about the matter, she had almost exploded in rage.

Regardless, Kayla had fled to another country after committing the terrible deed. There was nothing Katherine could do even if she wanted to avenge Sophia.

I can't believe that after four years, Kayla would return and stir up trouble again!

Sophia replied smilingly, “Nothing much. She only said some things that others often say to me.”

Katherine scoffed, “Nothing pleasant can come out from that stinky mouth of hers!”

“You bet.”

Sophia's mood improved after she worked out at the gym for two hours. “Let's end here. I'm going to eat now.”

“Oh, hold on! Does Alexander's car accident have something to do with you?”

“Of course not,” Sophia said without twitching a muscle.

I'd only repeated to him what he told me that year. Was it so unbearable for him?

“I'm done asking. Go and have your meal now! The filming will wrap up in half a month. Wait for me to return!”

“All right.”

After hanging up, Sophia picked up the jewelry box on the table and opened it. When she saw the bracelet inside, she wanted to toss it away. However, she chose to close the jewelry box instead.

It's something I bought from him. So why should I throw it away?

After Samuel posted the car accident involving Alexander on Instagram, everyone became aware of it in a few hours.

Alexander had received several fruit hampers and flowers during his hospitalization for the past few days. However, the person he yearned for most didn't appear in the end.

“Throw all these away!”

Samuel, who took time off that day to visit him, could hear Alexander's loud, chilly voice upon reaching the doorway of the ward.

He furrowed his eyebrows. “It would be a waste to discard these fresh fruits!”

Alexander snorted at his comment. “Then do you want to finish them all for me?”

Since he had fractured his leg, Alexander couldn't get discharged for the next ten days to half a month.
