Being Pursued By Ex-husband
Chapter 529
Sophia raised her head at the familiar voice and saw Alexander walking toward her.
As she looked at him, the smile in her eyes deepened.
The man soon reached her. He pulled her close with one hand as if he was declaring his claim on Sophia, and nonchalantly left a quick peck on her forehead right in front of Heath. “Dear Mrs. Xenos, I'm back.”
Sophia felt her face heat up, but her expression remained calm.
She hummed a response before turning to Heath, saying, “Mr. Barker, my husband is here to fetch me.”
Heath was used to Alexander's tricks, but he was usually the one who was always on the receiving end of his countless girlfriends' public displays of affection claiming their identity as his girlfriend. Thus, he was amused to witness such a scene as a bystander for the first time.
Clicking his tongue, he looked at Alexander and greeted, “Mr. Xenos, I've been looking forward to meeting you.”
Alexander simply shot him a cold glance and replied, “I don't think I know you, Mr. Barker.”
His sentence came as a strong slap in Heath's face.
The latter's smile fell subtly. In the end, he could only tell Sophia, “Since your husband is here, I won't disturb you anymore. Let's set a meeting sometime soon.”
Sophia nodded indifferently, so Heath did not hang around any longer and returned to the banquet hall.
While Alexander stared at Heath's back and recalled Samuel's words, he felt somehow upset.
“Mrs. Xenos, you seem to be close to Mr. Barker, huh?”
Sophia let out a laugh at his words. “Alexander, are you jealous?”
Knowing that Sophia was making fun of him, Alexander tightened his grip around her waist, almost pressing her against his body.
He stared into her eyes and declared, “Indeed, I am.”
Alexander's eyes darkened when he heard her question. He swallowed slightly before loosening his grip a little, answering, “No.”
His burning gaze flustered Sophia, who looked down and straightened out the wrinkles on his collar. “Shall we go and have dinner?”
“Your wish is my command.”
With that, Alexander held Sophia's hand and led her outside the hotel.
Judging from the time, Sophia didn't need to think to know that he had come over right after getting off the plane.
With a blabbermouth like Samuel around, it was only a matter of time before any news reached Alexander's ears.
Sophia had eaten dinner before attending Esmae's birthday banquet, and she also had some snacks at the venue earlier, so she was hungry at all.
Being quite picky with his food, Alexander never ate airplane food. Therefore, Sophia eventually chose a nearby restaurant that served mushroom soup considering that he had a weak stomach.
It was almost nine, so only a few customers were inside the establishment.
The moment Alexander and Sophia walked in, a waitress approached them attentively. “Hello. What would you like to order?”
The waitress was a young lady. As she showed them the menu, she looked back and forth between the couple.
“One mushroom soup and some garlic bread.”
Displeased by the fact that she was ogling at Sophia, Alexander scanned the menu unceremoniously and ordered quickly.
His frosty demeanor intimidated the waitress, but Sophia's beauty was irresistible. Before leaving, the waitress looked at Sophia once again. It was only when Alexander shot her a cold glance that she sheepishly walked away, holding the menu to her chest.
Once she was gone, Alexander shifted his attention to Sophia across the table and remarked, “Mrs. Xenos, you're so popular.”
Sophia snorted at that. “You're saying that as if you aren't popular yourself, Mr. Xenos.”
“She was looking at you. You're more good-looking than me,” Alexander argued, a rare smile adorning his face.
Sophia took a sip of water and replied, “It's fine. She's a woman.”
“Still. I don't want anyone else to look at you, even if the person is a woman.”
Contrary to his stern tone, Alexander's actions and gaze were gentle as he raised his hand to tuck Sophia's hair behind her ear.
Feeling a bit awkward, Sophia diverted the subject. “Why did you suddenly come back?”
“I missed you.”
Warmth spread across Sophia's cheeks. “Really?”
She lowered her head, the corners of her lips tugging up lightly.
“Yeah.”
As Alexander fixed his gaze on the ring on Sophia's ring finger, a flash of smile emerged in his eyes.
After finishing the food, the two of them drove back to the mansion.
