Being Pursued By Ex-husband
Chapter 460
Sophia was someone who had to get used to sleeping on a new bed, so she found herself tossing and turning in Alexander's condominium.
Not a hint of his scent was left in the room. Instead, there was just the faint smell of room freshener.
There was a slight whiff of wood and a touch of fruity smell, but it was still not Alexander's scent.
Sophia closed her eyes, but she suddenly thought of Samuel's words about her passing out the other time.
A day before the incident, Thalia had poured water on her as a prank, making her soaking wet. That night, she developed a low fever. When she woke late the next morning, Kristen berated her for over half an hour.
It had almost been two months since Alexander returned to the Xenos residence back then.
In the afternoon, she would deliver food to Alexander. Sophia was not a good cook, so the Xenos family's chef was the one who made the food. Kristen claimed to be getting Sophia to curry favor with Alexander, but the truth was that she could not stand watching Sophia have any free time. That was why Sophia had to bring food to Alexander every day at half-past eleven.
Indeed, Sophia had the intention of buttering up to Alexander by delivering food to him when she first married him, but soon after, it became nothing but a chore. The man always gave her scowls, and he even threw the food away in front of her once.
As usual, she had wanted to wrap up her task of delivering food to Alexander before leaving.
Sophia knew Alexander did not like her coming to the company. She knew that long ago. At the start, she would deliberately talk about what she did in the Xenos residence while she was at the office and stick around for a longer time, but Alexander never gave her any reply. He pretended as if she was not there. Eventually, Sophia lost interest and stopped doing that.
That day, Sophia was not feeling well, for she had a fever the entire night. After getting put into a tight spot by Odyssey's receptionist as usual, Sophia became even less interested to talk.
She left after putting down the lunchbox, and not long after she returned to the Xenos residence, she fainted.
She still clung to bits of her consciousness after she collapsed to the cold ground, so she could hear Thalia and Kristen's conversation.
"Mom, she's passed out."
"So what? If she dies, your brother will get to marry someone else."
"You're right. This woman's shameless. She insisted on staying in our house. If that incident didn't blow out of proportion, we would've never let her join the Xenos family!"
What occurred next in the conversation was lost to her after that.
When Sophia returned to the waking world again, she was already in a hospital ward.
Right as Thalia and Kristen entered the room and saw her, they rolled their eyes. "You're finally awake. You're such an unlucky woman. I can't believe you passed out just like that. Are you trying to haunt us by dying in our house?"
The gears in Sophia's head spun slowly. "Who sent me to the hospital?"
She knew that Kristen and Thalia were desperately hoping that she would drop dead, so there was no way they would be the ones who brought her to the hospital. It was a miracle that they had not kicked her while she was unconscious.
However, Thalia had an angry outburst almost instantly. "Who else could have sent you here if not for us? Are you seriously hoping that my brother will come home to send you here? Keep dreaming, Sophia! Alex won't even bat a lash if you were to die in front of him!"
Sophia believed Thalia back then, so even though she could smell cologne on her, she dismissed it.
There was no way Alexander would have sent her to the hospital.
Thalia's right. Stop reaching for the stars, was what Sophia thought back then.
Now, she realized it had not been an idea too far-fetched.
Sophia curled her lips and turned to the other side before covering her eyes.
Memories of the past kept emerging in her head as her eyelids fluttered open.
I can't sleep...
By the time Sophia fell asleep, it was past one in the morning.
Perhaps it was because she found out too many things of the past, her sleep was plagued with dreams.
The next morning when her phone alarm rang, Sophia woke with a headache.
She propped herself up and stretched out her arm to switch off the alarm.
Even though she had slept until eight, she still felt ill, for she had not been able to sleep well the night before.
However, there was a morning meeting at Odyssey, so Sophia had to get out of bed.
Her lack of sleep the night before meant that there was no joy in the smile she wore during the meeting.
The directors liked making things tough for Sophia in meetings like these, but she had always treated them as if they were monkeys performing in a circus and ignored them.
No matter what they said, she would smile and wait until they were done before asking, "Mr. Ladd, are you done?"
Alistair would find himself dispirited by her nonchalant attitude. He had attacked her to the best of his ability, but in the end, his attacks had landed nowhere.
They did not know whether or not Sophia was annoyed by it, but they certainly were.
That day, Sophia was in a foul mood, and anyone who had a brain could tell.
However, Alistair and the others enjoyed making things tough for her, so they were even more motivated when they realized that she was in a bad mood.
Sure enough, Alistair was quick to act.
Felix's team was the one who made the proposal, and even though it was not perfect, it was rather well done.
Yet, Alistair kept picking a bone with it. Once the man was done with his bombardment of questions, Sophia flashed him a half-hearted smile and said, "Interesting points you've made, Mr. Ladd. In that case, why don't I hand this project over to you to handle it?"
Before waiting for a reply from Alistair, she turned to Felix and said, "That's it for today's meeting. Everyone's dismissed."
