Being Pursued By Ex-husband
Chapter 231
The traffic light turned green, so instead of answering his question, Sophia urged, “The light has turned green.”
Alexander looked away and slowly sped up.
Silence ensued in the car. Sophia couldn't help but feel guilty when she recalled Alexander's “Really?” earlier.
Hmm. Should I be honest and tell him I've kept many things a secret from him? Forget it. I'll leave that for later.
Around ten minutes later, the car came to a stop.
The sky was dark when they both got out of the car. Alexander led her across the street and into an alley.
It was only then that she saw the photo of a Jetroinian restaurant.
Sophia raised a brow. “How did you find this place?”
I don't think it's easy to find a restaurant this secluded.
“Samuel recommended it to me,” came Alexander's reply.
Sophia chuckled. “Mr. Schild is good at having fun.”
Alexander lowered his head to glance at her. “Having fun is the only thing he does best.”
Sophia's lips curved, but she said nothing.
The restaurant might be secluded, but good wine needs no bush. It was pretty crowded.
Alexander probably had a reservation, for they were brought to a private room when they arrived.
It had been some time since Sophia last had Jetroinian food. Jadeborough was getting hotter by the day, leading to her having less appetite, so it was nice to have Jetroinian food once in a while.
Sophia had never been here, but she knew the restaurant was something else based on its interior design.
When the bill came, Sophia took one look at it and confirmed that the restaurant was indeed something else.
“A charity gala will be held the day after tomorrow. Will you be attending it?”
Sophia handed a glass of water to Alexander and laughed. “Even if I were to attend it, I can't be your partner, can I?”
She was reminding him that they had yet to go public with their relationship as of now.
Alexander took a sip of water and leaned into the couch lazily.
After loosening his tie, he undid the top two buttons of his shirt.
He then asked, “Sophia, what can I do to fully fill up the progress bar?”
He had forty-five percent to go but could not wait any longer.
Sophia tutted. “I've pushed your progress forward by five percent, haven't I?”
Alexander stared at her without a word. To him, five percent of progress was too slow. If possible, he wanted to complete the progress.
Of course, he knew that wasn't possible.
The man hung his head low, his white shirt making him look indifferent in the dark.
Alexander was handsome in an understated way. He carried an imperious nose well, and his angular cheekbones carved down toward a flinty jaw. Coupled with his sexy lips, he was a sight for sore eyes.
Sensing her stare, Alexander suddenly looked up and whipped his head around.
Sophia grabbed her mug and sipped on her water without looking at him. Her action merely gave her away.
“Let me hug you, Sophia,” Alexander requested.
He was getting bolder by the day. Previously, he was tactful enough to ask her to come to him, but now, he was straightforward enough to demand a hug.
Sophia felt her cheeks burning as she glared at him. “No.”
Seeing the smile in her eyes, Alexander felt his heart skip a beat. Without warning, he reached out and pulled her into his arms.
The temperature was increasing in Jadeborough as May arrived. Sophia wore a black pencil skirt with a chiffon top tucked into it. Her outfit might be simple, but it accentuated her curves.
When Alexander wrapped his arms around her, his palm accidentally grazed across her thigh, causing them both to freeze.
Sophia's skirt was tight, so she dared not move in Alexander's arms. She was afraid her skirt would split if she struggled.
Alas, they were in an intimate position that could escalate into something else if they were in another place.
In actual fact, Alexander wanted to do more than just hug her.
Humans were greedy, after all.
His gaze turning dark, Alexander rasped, “Sophia.”
Sophia went weak under his gaze. When their eyes met, she felt as though she was about to lose herself in his dark orbs.
His warm lips coupled with his unique scent pressed to hers. Sophia parted her lips, allowing him to take over as her heart raced.
Alexander's arms locked her in his embrace like shackles. Slowly, he tightened his arms and deepened the kiss.
Silence descended in the living room, save for their heavy breathing and amorous sounds.
Five minutes passed before Alexander finally released her.
His hand that was placed behind her head slipped to the back of her neck. He applied a little force and trapped her in his arms.
Sophia squinted and gazed at her own hands, which were gripping his shirt. All she could hear was her racing heart.
She instinctively tried to ease away from him.
The moment she moved, Alexander gave a muffled grunt. “Sophia, don't move.”
His words sounded like an order, but he said it in a pleading tone.
Sophia stopped dead. She swallowed hard when her gaze landed on Alexander's Adam's apple.
An urge to bite it surged within Sophie.
However, Sophia was rational enough to tamp down her urge. A while later, she said, “I want to drink some water.”
With that said, she shot Alexander a look.
She saw that his eyes were dark with desire before he could hide his emotions.
Sophia's mind went blank.
After snapping back to her senses, she pretended nothing had happened and slipped out of his arms to sit beside him. Grabbing her cup, she started drinking the water that was now cold.
Her mind cleared when the cool water trickled down her throat. She turned to look at Alexander. “It's almost ten.”
