Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Sophia looked at Alexander in the video clip. His face was beautiful while wearing a white wedding dress. If he didn't have Adam's apple, the passersby would probably assume he was a real model.

He stood in the middle of the bustling street distributing flyers promoting Lydia's studio. However, his face was cold as usual. The combination of everything made him look hilarious.

Sophia thought it was funny and burst out laughing. Tears suddenly began sliding down her face as she laughed.

“Lydia, can I keep this video clip?”

Lydia laughed. “Sure, you can. If that brat bullies you after marriage, you can upload this onto the internet and show everyone his embarrassing moment!”

Sophia was speechless by her suggestion. It was the first time someone else had thought further than her.

Lydia sent Sophia the video clip and finished recording the details for amendment.

Sophia took off the dress and went downstairs in search of Alexander.

More than three hours have passed. I'm sure Mr. Xenos has already lost his patience from the long wait. He has never been a patient person.

Walking down the stairs, she noticed Alexander wasn't in the mansion.

Hmm... Has he left?

At that thought, the sound of a car engine came from the outside.

Raising her brow, she walked out to the yard and saw Alexander getting out of the car.

He had an exquisite-looking bag in his hand. When he caught her coming out of the house, his pace quickened. “You're done with the fitting?”

Sophia looked up at him. “Was the wait boring?”

“No.”

Sophia smiled. “Then, where did you go, Mr. Xenos?”

“Didn't you say you wanted to eat cake yesterday?”

Sophia finally noticed the name on the bag. After the plane landed the day before, she turned on her phone and saw a screenshot Katherine had sent her. It was of a famous bakery in Huxville. The bakery would sell only ninety-nine cakes per day, and they would sell out in three hours. As the shop went on a first-come, first-served policy and didn't accept take-out or food delivery services. All the customers were limited to buying one cake per day.

Katherine said she had been craving the cake for so long. Alas, her due date was a fortnight, so she could only look at the photos on the web.

Alexander, who was beside her, happened to catch the photo of the cake she was staring at. He asked if she wanted to eat it.

Sophia didn't like cake as much as Katherine, but the thought of Joshua controlling the number of cakes Katherine could eat spurred Sophia to nod at Alexander's question and told him she wanted to eat it.

Unfortunately, they were caught in traffic when leaving the airport. Hence, it was almost eight when they arrived in the city. The cakes at the bakery had been on display for the entire day. Sophia had only taken two bites before losing her appetite.

However, she didn't expect Alexander would join the queue and buy it for her.

She studied the cake he held. It was the first time she was interested in desserts.

As they chatted, Lydia came downstairs.

The cake Alexander bought wasn't small, so Sophia invited Lydia to share it with her.

Lydia had a sweet tooth, so she didn't turn down Sophia's offer.

The housekeeper thoughtfully prepared a pot of coffee for the trio. Once Sophia and Alexander finished their afternoon tea, they left.

Before leaving, Lydia whispered in Sophia's ear, “Since he bought the cake for you, watch the video clip discreetly. That kid cares about his reputation a lot.”

Sophia laughed and glanced at Alexander before agreeing, “Okay.”

When they left the mansion, Alexander turned to her. “What did Lydia tell you?”

She arched her brow and looked at him with amusement. “It was a secret.”

“What secret?”

“Since it's a secret, I can't tell you, Mr. Xenos.”

Alexander studied Sophia in detail. Her eyes were half-closed from smiling. The smile on her face was so gentle and lively, with the sunset glow shining on her face. It was a first for him to see that side of Sophia.

Cute.

Sophia and Alexander only stayed at Huxville for a night. After having dinner, they flew back to Jadeborough.

Alexander quickly arranged for a wedding photoshoot since the fitting of the wedding dress was done.

Two months ago, Alexander and Sophia had already reserved their wedding photoshoot. He didn't want her to be too tired, so he booked a manor Samuel owned as their photoshoot venue.

Although his actions were a little exaggerated, Sophia was relaxed since she could enjoy her vacation as she did her photoshoot.

The manor had an equestrian field, a ski area, a hot spring, and many other facilities. Buildings with ancient and modern designs dotted the stretch of the estate. Being in between a mountain and a lake, the view was exquisite. The photographer had no concern about the lack of scenic views.

Alexander had paid Celia enough to have her team stay at the manor for the shoot without a complaint.

Over the days, Sophia had done six sets of photoshoots but didn't feel tired at all.
