Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 486

Sophia was awakened by the sound of the alarm clock. She realized Claudius was no longer in the room when she woke up from her slumber.

Her flight was at twenty minutes past ten in the morning, and the ringing alarm clock signified it was already eight.

The sun was already shining brightly outside the window. The rain had stopped, and the weather that day was simply perfect.

When Sophia exited the bathroom after freshening up, she saw Claudius entering the room. She blinked and greeted him, "Good morning."

"Good morning to you, too."

He walked over and handed the glass of warm water to her.

She glanced at him and drank half a glass of the water. Then, she strode toward the dressing table and took a seat.

After packing her belongings, the two headed downstairs.

Agatha had already prepared breakfast for them. Sophia had been eating Chanaean-style breakfast for the past two days, and today was no different.

Claudius sent her to the airport after breakfast.

Sophia didn't bring any luggage when she arrived, so she had nothing much to take with her when she left.

The set of emerald jewelry Rose gifted to her was too valuable, so Claudius arranged for someone to send it back to Chanaea in a couple of days to avoid any accidents from happening if Sophia carried it alone.

The time was already twenty minutes to ten when the car reached the airport. Sophia unbuckled her seatbelt and turned sideways to look at Claudius. "I'll be going in now."

"Okay."

He hugged her and sat inside the car, watching her enter the airport before driving away.

Sophia had no luggage, so she went directly to the security checkpoint for boarding after claiming her ticket.

The plane took off at ten forty-five in the morning.

When the plane landed, it was already five o'clock in the evening the next day in Chanaea.

As soon as Sophia exited the airport, she saw Yvonne, who had come to pick her up. "Ms. Yarrow."

Sophia nodded. "Thank you for your hard work recently."

With Sophia not in Chanaea, Yvonne had to handle all the affairs at Sunshine Group alone.

Yvonne smiled. "I'm fine. You've been on the plane for nearly fifteen hours. Would you like to eat something first, or do you want to go back to the mansion to get rested?"

Sophia was indeed exhausted after spending over ten hours on the plane.

However, as she couldn't get used to having the in-flight meal, she hadn't eaten anything for more than ten hours either.

"Let's eat first." As Sophia spoke, she suddenly recalled something. "Help me reserve a table at Mirage." Didn't Katherine mention she has a surprise for me? Now that I'm back, I'd like to see if what she has prepared is a surprise or a fright.

The sky of Jadeborough in May was still bright even though it was already five o'clock in the evening.

Katherine also knew Sophia was returning to the country that day. Before Sophia even contacted her, she had sent the latter a message: Soph, are you tired? If you aren't, let's meet up. I'll go to your house. What do you say?

Katherine had been suppressing her urge to share that news with her best friend, and she couldn't hold it in anymore.

Sophia couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile after she saw the message. She replied: I'm heading over to Mirage. Ms. Leighton reserved a private room there. You can come over.

After sending the message, she massaged her temples and closed her eyes, intending to take a quick nap.

Yvonne knew Sophia had been on a flight for over ten hours and was worn out at that moment. Hence, even though many things were pending Sophia's decision, Yvonne didn't bring them up yet.

However, not long after, Sophia opened her eyes all of a sudden.

Inexplicably, her heart clenched, and she felt a little panicky.

Sophia glanced at Yvonne. Sensing Sophia's gaze on her, Yvonne asked in bafflement, "Ms. Yarrow, are you feeling under the weather?"

The woman couldn't help but worry when she noticed Sophia's ashen complexion.

Sophia shook her head and looked down at her phone. She pursed her lips and dialed Claudius' number.

However, no one picked up the call.

She tried again, but still, no one answered.

She clicked into her conversation with Claudius on WhatsApp. Twenty minutes ago, after getting off the plane, she sent him a message to inform him she had arrived safely, but he hadn't replied yet.

At that moment, it was around one o'clock in the morning at Lusterg, so it wasn't surprising if Claudius didn't answer her calls.

After all, he should be asleep at that time.

Nevertheless, the fleeting uneasiness earlier caused Sophia to be slightly perturbed.

"Ms. Yarrow, is something wrong?" Yvonne couldn't stop herself from asking because she had rarely seen Sophia behaving in that manner.

Hearing Yvonne's voice, Sophia glanced at the woman and shook her head. "It's nothing." Perhaps I'm overthinking.

She then closed her eyes again and raised her hand to massage her temples.

Soon, the car came to a halt in front of Mirage. Sophia got out of the vehicle and entered the restaurant. When she arrived at the private room, Katherine had coincidentally stepped out of the elevator.

"Soph, were you not used to the climate overseas? Why do you look so pale?"
