Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Alexander entered the room and shielded Sophia. “Did he hurt you?” he asked.

Sophia shook her head and smiled after taking a glance at Tyler, who was gritting his teeth in pain on the ground. “No. However, I think I've hurt Mr. Tyler.”

After all, she struck his waist with all her might.

Upon hearing that, Alexander shot Tyler a cold look and launched a kick at him.

“Ouch! Have you gone mad, Alexander?” Tyler was still in pain after getting beaten up by Sophia. Yet, Alexander had landed a heavy kick on his shoulder. Although it wasn't a life-threatening kick, it was hard enough to almost knock Tyler unconscious.

While holding his shoulder, Tyler leaned against the wall and slowly rose to his feet. When he saw Alexander's vicious gaze, however, he couldn't help but shudder. Alexander looks like he wants me dead!

Tyler suddenly felt terrified, and when he saw there were people behind Alexander, he called out, “Are you guys blind? Can't you see what he's doing? He's about to kill me! Call the police!”

The staff who followed Alexander there turned to look at Alexander sheepishly after hearing what Tyler said.

Although Tyler was an esteemed guest at the hotel, Alexander was their most valued guest. If they had to choose to side with one of them, they would rather cross Tyler than Alexander.

Therefore, the staff didn't dare to call the police when Tyler told them to.

Right then, Alexander snorted and turned toward Sophia. “What did he want to do just now?”

Sophia smiled. “Mr. Tyler wanted me to drink something.”

She then paused for a second and added, “However, I never liked drinking something given by others, so I forced him to down it instead.”

Alexander knew what Sophia meant right away. Tyler gave Sophia weird looks the past few times they met. With Dillon's current situation, I didn't expect Tyler to have the balls to go after Sophia. Obviously, I'm not going to hand him over to the police because the police are only going to keep him locked up for a couple of days for his offense. That's far less than what he deserves.

With that in mind, Alexander gazed at the hotel staff and said, “He's my cousin, so this is a private matter I need to deal with. You guys may go back to your duties.”

Since Alexander had already said it was a private matter, the hotel staff no longer dared to stay.

Tyler got scared when he heard what Alexander said and instinctively walked toward the exit. However, after just taking two steps, he was sent crashing back against the wall after Alexander kicked a chair toward him.

Tyler grew anxious and shouted at the staff, who had already walked off, “Come back, you guys! Come back!”

The staff pretended as though they didn't hear him and kept walking without turning back.

Alexander then slammed the door shut. He slammed the door so hard that even the wall Tyler was leaning against shook a little.

One of the staff heard the loud banging sound and couldn't help but turn back. Seeing that the door was slammed shut, he turned toward the hotel manager next to him and asked, “Nothing bad is going to happen, right?”

The hotel manager glared at him and fumed, “Do you take Mr. Xenos for a fool? Nothing's going to happen. You'd better keep your mouth shut about what happened this evening. If this gets out, you'll get fired!”

The employee was shivering all over when he promised the manager he wouldn't tell a soul about what happened.

Meanwhile, Tyler was retreating along the wall when he saw Alexander close the door. While looking at the look in Alexander's eyes and the smug expression Sophia was wearing, Tyler uttered, “Alex, I'm your cousin. Don't act rashly!”

“Cousin?” Alexander scoffed and scanned the private room. He saw a wine cabinet with a few bottles of wine on it nearby and walked toward it. After grabbing a bottle, he turned around and smashed it toward Tyler.

“Alexander!” Tyler lifted his arm in fear to shield himself. In the next second, he heard the sound of the bottle shattering.

The bottle didn't land on his body. Instead, it was smashed against the wall next to his head.

Tyler breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the wine off of his face. Right when he was about to talk, he raised his gaze and met Alexander's gaze. He froze and stammered, “D-Don't do anything crazy, Alexander! Murder is a serious crime!”

Alexander was holding the broken glass bottle against Tyler.

Tyler went pale and slumped onto the ground after his knees gave in. “I-I didn't do anything! C-Calm down! I was merely scaring Sophia! Alex, I'm your cousin! Don't act rashly! You won't achieve anything by killing me! You still have a bright future ahead! Why would you ruin your future for a piece of trash like me?”

Tyler was on the verge of peeing his pants because Alexander had a horrifying look on his face.

Alexander then grabbed Tyler's collar and lifted him up. While pressing the sharp broken bottle against Tyler's carotid artery, he asked, “Didn't I warn you before? Didn't I ask you to stay away from Sophia?”

“Yes! Yes! I lost my rationality just now! I was wrong! Alex, I understand I was wrong! I really didn't do anything to Sophia. If you don't believe me, you may ask Sophia!” Tyler knew he couldn't convince Alexander to let him go, so Tyler turned toward Sophia and said, “I'm sorry, Sophia! I'm sorry! Please ask him to put the broken glass bottle away! Killing someone is a crime!”

Sophia swept a glance at Tyler and pulled Alexander's arm. “Let go of the bottle. Don't hurt yourself.” Hearing that, Alexander tossed the bottle away to avoid harming Sophia accidentally.
